Being Pursued By Ex-husband novel Chapter 575

Chapter 575 Too Relaxed

After learning Charlotte wanted to go overseas, Felix had initially arranged for someone to head to the airport tomorrow to stop her from leaving. Now that Alexander had called him, he swiftly made a call to his men, instructing them to cancel the arrangement to intercept Charlotte at the airport.

He couldn't afford to waste any more time on the issue concerning the hotel's server. Despite the late hour, he urged his men to launch an immediate investigation into the matter.

Felix's efficiency was commendable. The next morning, after Alexander woke up, he found the investigation report already sent to him by Felix.

Glancing at Sophia, who was heading to the bathroom, Alexander returned his focus to his phone and clicked on the email Felix sent him.

The email was concise, with two photos attached and two short paragraphs detailing the investigation results.

It became evident from the investigation report that the server at the high-end hotel where Alexander had his business meeting had ulterior motives. Being an influential man, Alexander naturally chose to conduct his business meetings at high-end hotels.

Despite the rigorous training provided to the hotel staff, the server “accidentally” spilled red wine on Alexander, prompting him to retreat to the restroom to clean himself up. This created an opportunity for Charlotte to cross paths with him.

It didn't come as a surprise when the investigation revealed that Heath was the culprit.

He hadn't made any effort to conceal his identity, almost as if he wanted to provoke Alexander.

This confirmation only reaffirmed Alexander's suspicion that Heath was responsible for the incident.

Alexander lowered his gaze as a menacing look crossed his eyes.

After washing up, Sophia stepped out of the bathroom to see Alexander still in the room, which was rare for him. As he was holding his phone, she asked, “Is work troubling you?”

“No.”

Alexander had no intention of concealing the truth from Sophia. Despite being aware of their marital status, Heath had audaciously stirred up trouble, displaying his disregard for the sanctity of their marriage. It was evident that Heath had no intentions of preserving his own dignity.

He wanted to destroy their relationship, but Alexander was determined not to let him succeed.

It was important for a couple to be honest with each other. In the past, one of the major issues they faced was the lack of interaction and effective communication, which led to numerous misunderstandings and created a significant distance between them.

Recognizing this, Alexander vowed not to repeat the same mistake again.

Alexander handed his phone to Sophia, who scanned the contents of the email quickly. “Did you bump into Charlotte last night?”

“Yes,” Alexander replied with a disgusted expression. “She wanted to scam me.”

Sophia didn't expect Alexander would use the term “scam” to describe Charlotte's behavior. Chuckling aloud, she returned his phone to him. “How are you going to deal with this, then?”

Heath is annoying. How could he be this shameless? I've never met anyone as shameless as him. He disgusts me.

Alexander reached out to wipe the water droplets on Sophia's cheek away before replying slowly, “The Barker family is considering expanding their presence into the entertainment industry. Heath's presence here was likely related to those plans.”

He left the sentence hanging, but Sophia knew what he was referring to.

The entertainment industry was currently dominated by Midway Media and Planetary Media. These industry giants had established their dominance and were not keen on allowing the Barker family to enter and challenge their positions.

Although Midway Media and Planetary Media were rivals in the absence of a common threat, the prospect of a new player seeking a share of the market prompted a collaboration to safeguard their interests.

The fact that Heath could execute his schemes in a relaxed manner indicated that Midway Media and Planetary Media hadn't taken any direct action against him yet.

However, if Alexander were to nudge both companies into action, it would undoubtedly add an intriguing twist to the situation.

Sophia's lips curled. “Good idea. He's indeed too relaxed now.”

Alexander didn't want to continue talking about Heath. “I'll take care of this.”

“Okay.”
