Being Pursued By Ex-husband novel Chapter 627

Chapter 627 I Am Enjoying It

Since Sophia just woke up, she still felt a muzzy. It took her some time to regain her senses after sitting up.

Pulling the blanket tightly around her, she heard Alexander’s voice in the quiet room. Despite his attempt to lower his voice, she still heard him amidst the quietness of the room. “Wait until my wife wakes up. Maybe an hour later.”

Sophia looked in the direction of Alexander’s voice and met the man’s gaze.

Alexander hung up the phone and walked toward Sophia. A tender look surfaced in his eyes when he saw her still somewhat groggy. He reached out to caress her cheek lovingly. “Are you still sleepy?”

Sophia shook her head and rubbed her eyes before glancing outside. “Not anymore. Oh, it’s dark now.”

“Yeah.”

Humming in response, Alexander placed her clothes on the bed and embraced the woman.

Sophia instinctively wrapped her arm around his neck and thought of the phone call she overheard, asking, “What were you talking about when you mentioned an hour later just now?”

“You weren’t awake yet, so I asked them to deliver dinner an hour later,” he answered while helping her put on her clothes. “Lift your arms.”

As Sophia raised her arms, he slipped the sweater over her head.

He then ran his fingers over her hair, which was a mess due to static charge, and said, “I got them to prepare Chanaean food.”

Sophia was somewhat amused as she allowed him to brush away the hair on her face. “So you’re not even letting me move now?”

Alexander glanced down at her. “Didn’t I ask you to move just now?”

He did ask her to lift her arms just now.

“Stretch out your arms,” he said, lifting her jacket. Obediently, Sophia raised her arm and let him put in on her.

Once that was done, she grabbed her pants and shoved Alexander playfully. “That’s enough, Alexander! It’s not like I’m disabled.”

“I enjoy taking care of you.”

He withdrew his hands and looked at her joyfully.

Indeed, he enjoyed doing these things for her; it brought him a sense of peace and happiness and made him feel as though she depended solely on him.

Since he had married an independent woman, he could only seek a sense of accomplishment by doing such trivial matters.

Sophia huffed. “Turn around!”

His ebony eyes crinkled as he smiled faintly. “Why? I’ve seen everything.”

“I don’t care. Turn around!”

She wasn’t as shameless as him and would still feel somewhat embarrassed whenever she changed her pants right in front of him.

Alexander chuckled and turned away. “Are you sure you don’t need any help?”

Sophia rolled her eyes. “Just get me some water.”

Having just woken up, she felt a bit thirsty.

“Okay,” replied Alexander. He then filled a glass with hot water and mixed it with cold water to make sure the temperature was just right before handing it to Sophia.

After drinking the water, Sophia felt much more clear-headed.

She checked her phone and was surprised to see it was seven o’clock. “It’s already so late.”

If she remembered correctly, they got off the plane at around two, and it took only about an hour from the airport to the hotel. It turned out she took a nap for more than three hours.

She thought she had only been sleeping for over an hour. No wonder I felt muzzy upon waking up. Looks like I’ve been sleeping for too long.

Alexander wrapped a scarf around her neck and said, “It’s fine. It’s good to get more sleep.”

“We’re indoors. I don’t need a scarf.” Sophia rejected.

After thinking about it, Alexander realized the room was indeed at a comfortable temperature, so he did not insist on it.

The Chanaean food Alexander ordered was delivered half an hour later as requested. It tasted much better than Sophia had expected.

Sophia did not have an appetite on the plane and went straight to sleep after arriving at the hotel. Now that she was awake, she started to feel hungry.
