Being Pursued By Ex-husband novel Chapter 622

Chapter 622 Marriage

That was a classic scene. Katherine and the others were ready with their phones to record that moment.

Alexander knelt down beside the bed, looking at Sophia. Then, he began to read in a calm and composed manner, “In order to be a competent husband, I, Alexander Xenos, solemnly pledge to Sophia Yarrow as follows: Mrs. Xenos is always right; I will instantly reply to all Mrs. Xenos’ messages; I will keep Mrs. Xenos’ words in mind; all the family’s assets belong to Mrs. Xenos; Mrs. Xenos’ money is hers; my money is also hers. And I, too, belong to her.”

As they listened, Katherine and the others realized something was off. That wasn’t the original pledge. Alexander had evidently added that last sentence himself.

Returning to her senses, Sophia saw Alexander putting away the pledge and looking up at her. When he beamed at her, she could see her face reflected in his clear gaze. “Mrs. Xenos will always take precedence over anything else in my heart.”

Sophia smiled as well and raised her eyebrows. “What about our child?”

“Our child ranks right below you.”

Everyone around was treated to a public display of affection without warning.

Katherine couldn’t hold back anymore and interrupted, “All right. You can now put on the wedding shoes for the bride, Mr. Xenos.”

Sophia grinned and hitched up the hem of her wedding dress, revealing her fair and flawless feet.

He picked up the wedding shoes he had just found with one hand, supporting her feet with the other, and took his time to help her wear the shoes.

Having put on the right shoe, Alexander gently placed Sophia’s right foot down, then lifted her left foot.

When her shoe was removed, Sophia felt a tickle on her sole. She looked down and met Alexander’s eyes. Her heart skipped a beat, and she subconsciously retracted her leg.

Alexander averted his gaze and arched his brows while continuing to help Sophia wear the other shoe. Except for the couple, no one else noticed their discreet exchange.

According to tradition, the bride had to be carried out of the house by a relative.

Since Sophia didn’t have any brothers, the duty naturally fell to Lukas.

Katherine and Charlize helped Sophia manage the long train of her dress from behind while Alexander walked by her side as the party exited the mansion in a grand manner.

Perrin was supported by his assistant while Kasper and his wife trod on Sophia’s heels.

A line of luxury cars was parked outside the mansion. Lukas carried Sophia to the wedding car and placed her on the seat, after which it was Alexander’s turn to take over.

Sophia was straightening the hem of her dress when Alexander got into the vehicle. He suddenly grasped her hand, prompting her to glance at him instinctively.

Alexander looked her right in the eyes, moving his hand downward to hold hers properly.

Sophia smiled, spread her palm, and grasped his hand so their fingers intertwined.

The sound of firecrackers rang incessantly as the car slowly drove away.

The entire convoy consisted of ninety-nine vehicles, symbolizing their everlasting marriage. The leading wedding car was a Rolls-Royce, worth over four million, and the vehicles following behind also cost more than a million each. The extravagant convoy attracted many onlookers when they hit the road.

The convoy circled Jadeborough’s inner ring once. Along the way, Felix arranged for his men to distribute monetary gifts.

Alexander was very generous, giving passers-by monetary gifts containing ninety-nine bucks each. Felix had prepared a total of nine thousand nine hundred and ninety-nine monetary gifts to distribute along the way.

Some pedestrians who received the monetary gifts initially thought it was just a celebratory gimmick. However, when they opened it and found ninety-nine bucks inside, they were overjoyed.

Because of the monetary gift, the news of Alexander and Sophia’s marriage went viral. Many people filmed the spectacle of the wedding convoy driving around the inner ring.

By the time the wedding car reached the Xenos residence, it was already past three in the afternoon. Alexander no longer had any relatives, so Sophia didn’t have to perform the greeting ceremony as the bride. He led her into the house to the master bedroom on the third floor, their previous bedroom.

The mansion was beautifully decorated with ribbons and balloons everywhere, especially in the bridal room.
