Being Pursued By Ex-husband novel Chapter 550

Chapter 550 Seeking Justice

Sophia seldom heard Alexander speak about such matters, so it piqued her curiosity when he brought it up. “Alone?”

“Yeah,” Alexander responded. Holding her hand, he led her to the roadside and stopped.

There were not many pedestrians there, with only the occasional passerby. After crossing the road, they walked a short distance to the other side where a bustling street filled with food stalls awaited them. Nearly every stall was occupied by people. Sophia and Alexander chose a highly recommended stall based on online reviews. Fortunately, as they arrived, a table became available just as someone finished their meal.

Sophia was dressed casually and did not wear any makeup. However, her exquisite features and fair complexion still captivated several male college students at a nearby table, causing them to be momentarily mesmerized.

Noticing this, Alexander furrowed his brow and discreetly pulled her closer to his side. He walked over to sit across from the young men so that her back would be facing them.

Sophia raised an eyebrow and shot a playful glance at Alexander.

He handed her the menu. “What would you like to eat?”

After a quick scan, Sophia ordered a bowl of mushroom soup and some bread. She usually wouldn't eat late-night snacks, but she was hungry that night. Alexander added a few more orders before returning the menu.

Nights in Jadeborough during September were quite chilly with a refreshing breeze sweeping past them.

The entire stretch was filled with food stalls, each with multiple tables outside. The scene was bustling and lively, even at this late hour when it was almost midnight.

Noticing Alexander staring at her, Sophia's eyes twitched slightly. “What's on your mind?”

“Nothing.”

Sophia let out a soft snort. Although she knew that he wasn't being entirely truthful, she couldn't be bothered to press further.

As Sophia took a sip of her drink, a smile spread across her face as she remembered what Katherine had said when she emerged from the delivery room.

“What's up?”

Alexander's confusion was evident. Yet, as he witnessed Sophia's smile, the cold look in her gaze was replaced by tenderness.

Sophia cast a glance at him. “I was thinking about how Katherine complained that Lewinn is ugly.” Suddenly, she paused for a while. “Alexander, do you think Lewinn's ugly?”

“Aren't newborn babies always ugly?” he replied.

“Tsk. You are an expert, huh?” she remarked with a playful smirk.

Just then, a waiter arrived carrying a bowl of soup. Sophia leaned back slightly.

Alexander passed it to her. “Be careful, it's hot.”

“Got it.”

Fortunately, the online reviews proved accurate as the food was indeed quite yummy. Sophia was satisfied.

After finishing their late-night snack, it was almost one in the morning by the time they returned to the mansion.

Sophia emerged from her shower, feeling slightly less sleepy. She turned off the alarm on her phone, deciding to visit Katherine at the hospital after lunch the next day.

When Alexander walked out, his hair was still wet with water droplets hanging on each strand.

Sophia set her phone down and glanced at him. “Aren't you going to dry your hair?”

“Are you going to help me, Mrs. Xenos?”

Sophia smiled and did not refuse him. “Where's the hairdryer?”

It seemed like all men dislike blow-drying their hair. Every time Alexander washed his hair, he would just leave his hair wet.

Sophia took the hairdryer, adjusted her sitting position, and stretched her legs forward.

Alexander sat in front of her. As it was a bit difficult for Sophia to reach his head, she ended up kneeling.

Since his hair was short, it was dry after five minutes.

Sophia turned off the hairdryer. Feeling tired, she couldn't help but yawn.

“Tired?”
