Being Pursued By Ex-husband

Chapter 633 What Does That Mean

Several days into the new year, Felix made a trip to the capital to make large personnel changes to the subsidiary company, promptly terminating all of those who were friendly with Wesley.

The decision caused a riot, but when Felix produced the evidence of their collusion with Wesley, they no longer dared cause any more trouble.

Some of the shareholders tried planting their own people, but Felix took the opportunity to remove them as well, angering the shareholders, who took advantage of the first meeting of the year to accuse Felix of being reckless.

However, no amount of outrage could reverse the situation, as it was Alexander’s decision. Furthermore, those laid off were problematic employees to begin with.

Against the evidence and the executive order from the headquarters, the shareholders were powerless to change a thing.

With Felix off to the capital, it was down to Alexander to suppress the uprising.

After the New Year and halfway through February, Sophia’s belly had become noticeably bigger, though it was still not visible. Only when she caressed her belly could she feel that she was further along than she had been the year before.

As Alexander was off at Odyssey keeping watch, Sophia found herself home alone.

Aside from cooking, practicing yoga, watching films, or listening to relaxing music, she did not have much else to do at home.

One day, after she was done cooking, she heard a noise coming from downstairs.

Alexander entered just as she completed the final dish.

After he hugged her from the back and kissed her, he washed his hands and helped her set the table.

Alexander had offered to hire a maid, but Sophia did not want a stranger in the house. She also knew that Alexander felt the same way.

Left alone with nothing to do, she did yoga in the morning when Alexander went out for a run and did another hour after her afternoon nap. Then, she would read after dinner. Life was simple, but Sophia arranged her time well and made it fulfilling.

In this manner, three months passed in the blink of an eye. Spring in Jadeborough was beginning before the vestiges of the winter cold had time to melt away.

It had been a while since Katherine and Sophia last met. As soon as the former finished shooting the day before, she asked Sophia out the very next day.

Alexander personally sent Sophia to the café they agreed to meet at.

“Give me a call when you’re done.”


Sophia was amused. “Got it, Mom. Drive safe.”

He had already repeated himself more than a few times on their way there.

Alexander’s brow twitched when he saw the twinkle of mischief in her eyes. He pulled her into his arms. Ignoring the fact that they were in public, he bent down and kissed her, only letting go when she began gasping for breath. “Don’t take too long. I’ll miss you,” he said lightly.

After catching her breath, Sophia punched him. “We’re standing outside a cafe, Alexander. Are you crazy?”

Worried that they might be overheard, she kept her voice low.

As they were in a mall, their antics had arrested the attention of many people.

Alexander scoffed. He pulled her arm and held her hand firmly. “I’ll walk you in.”

“It’s only a few paces. Surely it’s not necessary. Besides, Katherine is already there.”

“Let’s go.”

As he had made his decision, allowing herself to be led inside was all Sophia could do.

Alexander only let go when they saw Katherine. “Go on.”

“You two are always canoodling in public, Mrs. Xenos. Have you considered the feelings of those around you?” Katherine teased Sophia as soon as the latter arrived.

Sophia did not take those words to heart as she chuckled. “Isn’t your husband treating you well?”

There, Sophie paused and cast her friend an ambiguous smile. “Who was it who told me that her husband calls her multiple times a day, I wonder?”

Having being dealt the merciless ribbing, Katherine promptly fell silent.

Sophia then turned to Lewinn, who was seated in a baby chair. “I haven’t seen you in a while, Lewinn. Did you miss me?”

As she spoke, she went over and tugged his hand.

Lewinn did not like being held, but he tolerated Sophia.

“Your hand is so cold! Would you like a sweater?”

Katherine reached over to feel his hand when she heard that. “I gave him a coat earlier, but he refused to wear it, the little rascal.”

Lewinn was over a year old. Though he still could not speak, he understood his mother well enough.

When he heard Katherine complaining about him, he gurgled and waved his wooden spoon.

Katherine snorted. “He has an awful temper, too.”

Chuckling, Sophia sat across from them. “When is your new show airing, by the way?”

That was Katherine’s first television series upon her return from maternity leave; the shoot had lasted over three months, during which Joshua had brought Lewinn to visit her and thus spent the New Year abroad.

Katherine pulled the coat around Lewinn and kissed him on the cheek. “I missed my baby so.”

Sophia raised her brows. “Lewinn is smiling.”

Having not seen each other in a while, the pair had plenty of interesting stories to exchange.

Ever since Katherine gave birth, most of her stories revolved around Lewinn.

Having always been a good listener, Sophia was content with listening to her friend.
