“I was thinking when can we send out the wedding invitation cards?”
The man's deep voice rang out beside her ear. She was momentarily taken aback, and when she returned to her senses, she chuckled. “Why are you in such a hurry, Mr. Xenos?”
We have just only gotten registered, and he wants to hold a wedding already?
“Yes,” replied Alexander almost immediately. He didn't waste a single second hesitating.
Sophia threw him a glance and said, “We'll hold the wedding once you are done dealing with the issue in Moranta.”
“Okay.”
He was so quick in his response that something seemed amiss to Sophia. “There must be quite a lot of matters to tend to in UI, no?”
Alexander nodded and kissed her on her lips all of a sudden. “Now that Truce and the others have been released, they're trying to rope in the old shareholders.”
“How persistent of them.”
They still hadn't given up on trying to take over UI when things had already reached this point.
“It's going to be six o'clock soon. Shall we go for dinner?” asked Alexander.
Sophia nodded in response and stood up.
Alexander did the same as Sophia walked over to the desk to grab her bag. The moment she turned around, Alexander took her hand.
She looked down, smiled, and said nothing before walking out of the office with Alexander.
Some employees of Odyssey had already received one thousand four hundred and thirty-seven with the payment remark “monetary gift.” Most of them had no idea why they received that amount of money until the wedding gifts were distributed to them. It was then they realized that Alexander and Sophia had registered their marriage.
Very soon, all of Odyssey's staff found out about the good news.
The moment the couple stepped out of the elevator, two of the receptionists who were more than ten meters away congratulated them, “Mr. Xenos, Ms. Yarrow, we wish the both of you a long and blissful life ahead.”
Their voices resonated loudly in the empty reception area.
Sophia blushed furiously while Alexander appeared exceptionally calm. Holding her hand, he walked past the reception counter with her and said, “Thank you.”
When Sophia heard that, she followed suit and thanked them as well.
She turned to look at Alexander and wanted to chide him for making this such a big deal, but she decided against it when she caught sight of his faint smile.
Noticing her gaze, Alexander asked her, “What's wrong? Do you not like it?”
He knew that Sophia never liked drawing attention, but he wanted the whole world to know that they were married.
She shook her head with a smile. “No.”
“What did you want to say just now?”
Sophia looked into those jet-black eyes of his and laughed. “You look very handsome today.”
Alexander knew that was not what she wanted to say, but he did not pursue the matter. “Mrs. Xenos, you're particularly beautiful today too.”
Sophia raised her brows and said, “Thanks.”
All Alexander wanted to do was pull her into his arms when he saw her adorable expression.
Unfortunately, he could not do so because they were out in public and not at home.
He gulped and tamped down his desire before forcing himself to look away. “How about grilled fish for dinner?”
“Sure.”
The two of them walked up to the car and drove away. Sophia took out her phone and saw that Katherine had sent her quite a number of messages.
The first message started with a crying emoticon and read: Soph, I can't believe you really got married. I'm devastated. My rich friend no longer belongs to me. Do you still love me now that you're married? I don't care. You must love me! Oh my! Soph, you're trending again! Alexander is impressive!
Two pictures were then sent over with the caption: Take a look! Gosh! You look gorgeous in your marriage certificate photo. I'm so lucky to have such a wealthy and beautiful lady as my best friend. Tsk, tsk, tsk.
It was only after reading all of Katherine's messages that Sophia realized that Alexander had posted their photo on Twitter.
Chaos broke out on the internet right now. After all, their divorce back then had made the headlines.
Initially, Sophia wanted to log into her Twitter and take a look, but her account crashed due to the endless flow of private messages she received. Left with no choice, she could only log into her alternate account.
Katherine shared Alexander's post almost as soon as it was published, and in a matter of a few hours, Sophia and Alexander's remarriage had become the top trending topic on the Internet.
However, the netizens had different opinions when it came to the reconciliation of Sophia and Alexander.
Most of them wished the happy couple well. However, quite a number of them felt that Sophia should not get back together with Alexander since she suffered a lot during the last three years.
Even though Katherine said that she did not want Sophia and Alexander to get back together, she still defended the couple whenever someone said something nasty or opposed their relationship.
There was a comment under the post Katherine shared that read: Ah! They still end up together, huh? I just don't get it. Ms. Yarrow is pretty and rich. Why does she have to remarry Alexander? She's so cheap!
She shook her heed with e smile. “No.”
“Whet did you went to sey just now?”
Sophie looked into those jet-bleck eyes of his end leughed. “You look very hendsome todey.”
Alexender knew thet wes not whet she wented to sey, but he did not pursue the metter. “Mrs. Xenos, you're perticulerly beeutiful todey too.”
Sophie reised her brows end seid, “Thenks.”
All Alexender wented to do wes pull her into his erms when he sew her edoreble expression.
Unfortunetely, he could not do so beceuse they were out in public end not et home.
He gulped end temped down his desire before forcing himself to look ewey. “How ebout grilled fish for dinner?”
