Being Pursued By Ex-husband
Chapter 549
Katherine had just given birth, and she and the baby were sent to the observation room. They would not be moved back to the general ward until two hours later.
Family members weren't allowed to accompany them, so Joshua sat right outside the observation room while waiting.
Sophia yawned. Alexander, sitting next to her, turned to look at her and raised his hand to brush aside the loose strands of hair beside her ear. “Are you tired?”
“Just a little.”
The time was already eleven o'clock at night. Sophia and Alexander had been in the hospital for nearly ten hours. Usually, Sophia would be asleep by that hour, let alone that day, after having accompanied Katherine and been on tenterhooks all day.
She let out another yawn after replying to him.
At that moment, the phone in her bag rang.
Sophia glanced at Alexander. He let go of her hand to let her answer the call.
After taking out her phone, she noticed it was a call from Joshua.
“It's me, Sophia.”
“It's getting late. You and Mr. Xenos should go back first. Katherine is too tired. Even if she comes out of the observation room later, she probably won't wake up tonight.” Joshua regained his composure after calming down.
Recalling the scene when Joshua repeatedly questioned the nurse if Katherine was truly just asleep, Sophia couldn't help but smile. “All right. I got it. I'll come over tomorrow morning.”
“Okay.”
After hanging up the phone, Sophia grinned at Alexander. “Let's go back, Mr. Xenos.”
She was distracted as she spoke and didn't notice the few steps beneath her feet. As a result, she landed on the lower ground and staggered. Fortunately, Alexander swiftly reached out to wrap his arm around her waist, pulling him into his embrace and steadying her. “Did you sprain your ankle?”
If he hadn't caught her, she would've sprained her ankle.
Eyes riveted on her, he picked her up directly.
Sophia, arms placed around his neck, felt self-conscious. “We're outside, Mr. Xenos.”
“Our relationship is backed by the law.” Hearing that, she chuckled and rested her cheek against his chest without protesting.
Since it's legal, what's there to be afraid of?
However, at that time, there weren't many people in the hospital either. Alexander carried her out of the hospital building. On the way to the parking lot, Alexander and Sophia were the only two people walking under the streetlamp-lit path.
The parking lot was also quiet. Alexander placed her inside the car. A car drove into the entrance, causing Sophia to be dazzled when the high beam shone over.
Alexander shifted his body to block the light for her.
Sophia looked up at him. The man had his back to the illumination. The ray of light from afar shone on his back, prompting Sophia to think back on the year when she was fifteen. He had rescued her from those people in a similar manner. After so many years had passed, she thought he seemed to have changed, yet he hadn't.
Sophia was unusually emotional perhaps because of the newborn baby who entered their lives that day. She pursed her lips and leaned forward to kiss Alexander's thin lips.
His dark eyes gleamed as he stared at her. The next second, he lifted her chin and kissed her red lips.
The car with a high beam drove past their vehicle. Sophia's heart palpitated. Being held by him, she suddenly found the car's interior cramped and hot.
He finally let go of her after five to six seconds. “Do you want to have supper?”
Sophia averted her gaze and responded softly, “Sure.”
She had never had supper with Alexander before.
He caressed her cheeks, leaned down to fasten her seatbelt, and then circled around the car to the driver's seat.
The car slowly drove out of the hospital. Not long after, Sophia saw a bustling street full of supper stores.
She turned to look at Alexander, who was driving. “Is it all right if we park the car nearby?”
“Okay.”
He had also noticed the long street with many supper stores.
In contrast to the serene atmosphere at the hospital from which they had just come, that lively street was a vibrant nightlife spot.
There was no place to park nearby, so Alexander drove to a plaza up ahead and parked the car in an outdoor parking lot there.
After parking the car, Sophia and Alexander got out and walked toward the street.
In fact, the stores they had just seen were not very far away. They would reach the stores after walking past the zebra crossing, moving two hundred meters to the right, and passing another street.
Eleven o'clock at night was the peak hour for nightlifers to have their supper.
