Being Pursued By Ex-husband novel Chapter 436

Chapter 436 Go Ahead And Faint

Sophia stood still as she stared at the man, who did not move either.

"What are you looking at?"

Yasmin Lawre was unhappy when she noticed that Claudius Lenoir was silent. She shifted her gaze to where he was staring and saw a beautiful woman standing beside a gambling table not far from them.

That woman was gorgeous, her eyes mesmerizing. At that moment, she was also staring at Claudius.

All of a sudden, Yasmin oddly felt threatened. She instinctively moved closer to Claudius and asked, "Do you know her?"

Claudius was annoyed. He thought Yasmin was like a fly that kept bugging him. He averted his gaze and looked down at her. "I'm warning you, stop following me!"

Yasmin was displeased when she heard that. "What the heck? I'm also here to have fun! You don't have the right to control what I do! It's not like your family runs this hotel!"

Claudius' lips tugged into a sneer before he turned around and looked at the bodyguard behind him. "Throw her out."

Unfortunately, the hotel was indeed run by his family.

"How dare you, Claudius! Why don't I go back and tell Mdm. Rose all about this?"

"Do as you like."

With that, Claudius left without sparing her a second glance.

Yasmin wanted to chase after him, but his bodyguard stopped her. "My apologies, Ms. Lawre. The Lenoir family indeed runs this hotel. Mr. Claudius had asked us to kick you out, so please don't make things difficult for us!"

Yasmin was rendered speechless.

"Miss, it's your turn to place your bet."

Sophia watched the man walk away before she shifted her attention back to the table. She placed her cards on the table and said, "Sorry, I have something to attend to."

With that, she left the gambling table.

There were many people at the casino. It was not easy for her to chase after the man.

He moved fast despite her seeing him a few seconds ago. She had just gotten up from the table, but he had disappeared.

Was he a figment of my imagination?

Sophia stood in the middle of the bustling casino. It was the first time she could not determine whether what she saw was real or her imagination.

It's been more than six months. To be exact, it's been a hundred and twenty-six days.

Alexander had disappeared off the face of the earth. No one knew if he was dead or alive.

Sophia was at a loss. She stood there until a waiter passed by and asked in broken Chanaean if she needed help. Only then did she snap out of her daze.

Sophia smiled, shook her head, and replied in Ustranasion, "Thank you, but I'm fine. May I know where's the restroom?"

The waiter pointed in a certain direction. Sophia nodded and passed by multiple strangers as she approached the restroom.

She was more sober after splashing cold water onto her face.

She then watched the sexy woman beside her reapply a blood-red lipstick before she stared at herself in the mirror.

I look pale.

Sophia reached up to massage her temples before she took out her phone and sent a message to Katherine. She planned to return to her room to rest.

I haven't had enough rest recently. I'm so exhausted to the point that I'm starting to hallucinate.

That hallucination of hers seemed to appear quite frequently as she saw "Alexander" again when she left the restroom.

This time, the other party did not notice her. He held a phone to his ear, looking to be on a call with someone. His expression looked grim. It seemed like the person on the phone had said something to displease him as he ended the call without saying goodbye.

A couple walked past her, blocking her from looking at him. After they left, she no longer saw "Alexander."

Sophia panicked. She quickly ran to where he stood, but he was no longer around. It had only been a few seconds, yet Alexander had disappeared again.

Looking around, she noticed that there were people everywhere, but the person she was looking for was nowhere to be seen.

She stood there, dazed. She had never felt so horrible and flustered before.

That feeling felt exactly like when she stood at the scene of the car accident while watching the burning fire ten years ago. There were people around her, but she still felt alone and afraid.

"Are you looking for me?"

All of a sudden, a man's voice rang out from behind Sophia, taking her by surprise.

She was in disbelief, turning around and looking at the familiar yet foreign man. She suppressed the emotions rising within her as she stared at him and softly said, "You look like a friend of mine."
