Being Pursued By Ex-husband novel Chapter 425

Chapter 425 But She Is A Girl

Horace elbowed the man beside him right after Lukas left. “I just said you're smart, and you go act like an idiot right away! Are you dumb? He is no ordinary man. How dare you drop my name right away? You're not afraid of getting beaten up, huh?”

Jett felt a little upset after hearing him. “Horace, who do you think that man is?”

“Who is that man? Obviously, he's that hottie's boyfriend!” Horace said.

Jett snorted. “So what? It's not like he's some big shot!”

“Are you out of your mind? Did you see what car the man was driving?”

Lukas was driving an S-Class Maybach. It was a low-key car, but a car enthusiast would recognize it as a luxurious car with just a single look.

Even though Horace's company had been doing well these few years, he couldn't afford a car that cost at least three million either.

Most men knew a thing or two about cars. Jett cocked his head to take a better look at Lukas' car and noticed that Horace was right.

“My goodness, Horace! This car is at least three million! He has to earn at least billions to be able to afford that car!”

Horace smacked Jett's head and chided, “You don't say?”

Horace had thought that the young man merely had a good job. However, he admitted defeat after seeing Lukas' car.

He grimaced at the thought of what he had said to Lukas earlier.

Sophia's smile widened as she looked at the two men through the rearview mirror.

She had only retracted her gaze after the car left the hospital. Sophia then cocked her head to one side to look at Lukas. “What did you say to them, Lukas?”

How did he manage to scare them senseless in just a few seconds?

“Nothing much,” Lukas replied nonchalantly.

Sophia raised a brow in doubt.

However, she did not press on since Lukas didn't seem like he wanted to discuss the matter further. After all, no matter what he said, Lukas was teaching the arrogant man a lesson on behalf of her.

As the car cruised through the city center, Sophia hesitated a little before she said, “Lukas, please drop me off at Golden Hotel.”

She was going to have dinner with Alexander anyway. Hence, she reckoned it didn't matter whether she met him up earlier or later.

Lukas turned to eye her and asked, “Are you going to meet Alexander?”

Though his tone was neutral, Sophia still felt abashed as she mumbled, “Yes.”

She kept her head low and didn't meet Lukas' gaze.

He said nothing and took a turn at the next intersection to drop her at the entrance of Golden Hotel.

“Are you coming back for dinner tonight?” Lukas asked.

“I'm meeting up with Alexander for dinner.”

Lukas' expression stiffened ever so slightly. “I'm coming over to pick you up at ten later.”

Sophia's cheeks tinged pink. “I'll go back before ten.”

“Okay,” Lukas replied. After a brief pause, “Aren't you guys going fishing with Grandpa tomorrow?”

He reckoned that they should go to sleep earlier if they were going fishing the next day.

Sophia sensed the undertone to his question and felt her face going hot with embarrassment. “Okay.”

“Go on in,” Lukas said.

Sophia nodded. She bade him goodbye and turned to head inside the hotel.

Alexander didn't actually know that she would be there.

She was planning to surprise him. However, she noticed that Alexander was not in the room.

Sophia texted him, only to find out that he was out. However, he was already on his way back to the hotel.

Sensing that something was off, Alexander replied: What's the matter?

Sophia: Oh, nothing. I wanted to order afternoon tea for you.
