Being Pursued By Ex-husband novel Chapter 448

Chapter 448 Must Have Loved You Deeply

Joshua didn't know much about Alexander's and Sophia's marriage, but he had heard about how much of a jerk Alexander had been to Sophia for the past three years from their mutual friend Katherine.

Joshua's eyes turned cold as he recalled the past. "You've done Sophia wrong."

Claudius frowned. "Did I cheat on her?"

Joshua gave him a look and replied, "No, but the things you did to her were just as bad."

Joshua paused, realizing that this might be one of the few opportunities he had to teach Alexander a lesson on Sophia's behalf. Despite not knowing much about their marriage, he still felt a surge of anger on Sophia's behalf.

Even though it had been three years since their marriage, and he didn't actually hate Alexander that much, Joshua wouldn't let this rare opportunity of teaching Alexander a lesson slip away.

"Most of Sophia's family and friends didn't want the both of you to get back together before tragedy befell you."

Claudius' face fell after he heard the man's words.

The two of them fell silent at that. Sophia's and Katherine's conversation were coming to an end as well.

Katherine checked the time and saw that it was already past eleven. She made her way over to Joshua to ask if they wanted to grab lunch but held her tongue when her gaze landed on Claudius. She dragged Joshua out the door, saying, "We'll be having lunch now and won't be sending you off to the airport this afternoon, Soph!"

Sophia smiled and walked them to the door. "Okay."

Katherine heaved a sigh of relief as they exited Sophia's room. "What did you and Alexander... I mean Claudius, talk about? He didn't look too happy when we left."

Joshua lowered his head, gave Katherine a look, and combed through her messy hair with his fingers. "Nothing much. Just the things he did before he had amnesia."

"Oh. What was it about that put him in such a bad mood? I had wanted to ask if he wanted to grab lunch together but refrained from doing so after seeing the look on his face."

Joshua changed the subject. "Let's leave them alone for now. Sophia had spent more than half a year looking for him. They must have a lot to talk about right now."

Katherine harrumphed. "He has lost all his memories. What is there to talk about? Who knows? He might even have lost interest in Soph!"

She started to panic upon that thought. "He couldn't have lost interest in Sophia, right? I think we ran into his fiancée yesterday!"

Joshua sighed helplessly. "Why would he be in Sophia's room if he has lost interest in her?"

"What does that have anything to do with him being in Sophia's room?" Katherine frowned, confused.

Joshua paused and continued, "Why would he come and see her if he doesn't like her?"

"Hm... You're right!"

Sophia watched them until they entered the elevator before shutting the door behind her.

She turned around and was about to ask Claudius what time he wanted to have lunch when she noticed he was standing close behind her.

Sophia stared at him and asked, "Shall we go out for lunch?"

However, Claudius brushed her question away and suddenly pinned her against the door, leaning in to kiss her on the lips.

"What are you—"

His kisses were hot and passionate, reminding Sophia of how Alexander used to kiss her when she got him hot and bothered.

But I didn't wind him up. He was talking with Joshua all along just now. All I did was ask him if he wanted to grab lunch now.

Soon, Sophia couldn't think of anything else anymore.

Her mind went blank as he swept her away with his kisses.

After what felt like three minutes, Claudius pulled away, his eyes dark with lust.

He lowered his head and stared at her with slightly parted lips. "Sophia, I must have loved you deeply before I lost my memories."

His words tugged at Sophia's heartstrings. She stared at him, wondering if he was just playing with her and had not truly lost his memories.

The room fell silent as they both remained motionless for a few seconds. Finally, Sophia spoke up, breaking the silence. "Shall we head out for lunch?"

"Okay."

Claudius released his grip on her.
