Being Pursued By Ex-husband novel Chapter 640

Chapter 640 Rowen Xenos

Sophia gave birth to a boy and named him Rowen Xenos.

When Rowen was one-month old, Alexander displayed his confession to Sophia on all the LED screens in Jadeborough. It was as though he wanted everyone in the city to know how much he loved Sophia.

Naturally, that ended up on the trending section of all social media platforms. It wasn’t until many years later that people realized how Rowen, who was supposed to be the star, received little to no attention whatsoever.

The day after Sophia gave birth to Rowen, Alexander actually went for a vasectomy.

Displeased with how Rowen would hog Sophia all day, Alexander insisted on carrying Rowen himself.

In order not to let Rowen get too clingy to Sophia, Alexander went as far as personally teaching him to crawl, walk, and talk.

However, Alexander was not exactly known for his patience, and nothing changed even when dealing with his son.

Rowen would throw tantrums if he couldn’t get what he wanted. While Alexander was able to put up with it, he started growing impatient after Rowen was past three years old.

Whenever Rowen refused to go to kindergarten, Alexander would drop him off at the front gate and drive off regardless of how loudly Rowen cried.

When Alexander turned forty, Rowen had graduated from kindergarten and started his first year of elementary school.

Alexander brought Perrin, who was in his nineties at the time, over to Jadeborough before taking Sophia on a trip around the world.

As much as Perrin doted on his great-grandson, he had been a soldier for over forty years, so he would still make sure to discipline Rowen strictly when required.

Just like that, Rowen grew up under Perrin’s strict parenting. It wasn’t until he made it into middle school that he finally gained some freedom.

When Rowen turned thirteen, Perrin passed away suddenly a few days after celebrating his one-hundred-and-first birthday.

Alexander and Sophia, who were about to head over to their next destination, took the earliest flight home to attend the funeral. Rowen, who was thirteen at the time, truly realized the value of life when he saw the jar containing Perrin’s ashes get lowered into the grave.

That was when he understood why Alexander and Sophia were different from other parents. A person only lives once, so one should try to fill one’s life with joy and excitement. As for the meaning of one’s life, that is entirely up to others to decide.

Sophia no longer wished to continue touring the world with Alexander after Perrin’s sudden death. Upon seeing her son, who was slightly taller than her, she was determined to become a good mother to him.

However, Sophia was clearly overthinking things. Rowen was not as weak as she thought he was. Although Alexander had always been petty about Rowen competing for Sophia’s attention, he did do his part in raising Rowen.

When compared to his peers, Rowen was actually considered to be quite lucky. After all, Sophia and Alexander had kept him company throughout his most precious childhood years.

Alexander and Sophia had long since put someone else in charge of the company, so they could spend all of their time taking care of their only son.

Although Alexander and Sophia had gone off touring the world after Rowen entered elementary school, they would return to spend time with him once every two months.

Unlike his peers, whose parents were always going on business trips, Rowen felt that his parents had way too much free time on their hands.

In fact, he even found it a little suffocating to see his parents at home every day.

Of course, Rowen didn’t dare say that to Sophia. If he did, Alexander would probably grab his belt and hang him from the tree in the courtyard for a few hours.

Rowen would occasionally hear stories from others about his father. They claimed that his father used to be very cold and heartless during his younger days. Rowen couldn’t bring himself to associate that man with the image of Alexander approaching him with a belt in his hand.

Is that man really my father?

With Sophia, however, Rowen felt that she looked just as beautiful as she did when she was younger.

When Rowen heard that Lewinn had a beautiful younger sister, he asked with a disdainful snort, “How beautiful is she, huh? Is she as beautiful as my mom and Aunt Katherine?”

He firmly believed that Sophia was the most beautiful woman in the world.

“She’s going to be my little sister, so you’d better not bully her, Rowie!” Lewinn warned with a chuckle.

“Oh, please! Am I the kind of person who would do such a thing?” Rowen snapped back at him.

Lewinn simply stared at Rowen without saying a word. Rowen, who was seventeen at the time, had always been arrogant and domineering as a result of his wealthy family background.

Had Lewinn not been two years older than Rowen, he wouldn’t have asked Rowen to help look after Celine Lewis.

Lewinn’s lips curled into a smile. “She’s a little timid, so please don’t scare her off.”

He couldn’t tell what Rowen had in mind when he winked at him in response, but he knew Rowen was definitely up to no good.

“My mom likes Celine a lot,” Lewinn said with a sigh.

Realizing what he meant, Rowen said with a nonchalant wave, “I’ll look out for her.”

Having achieved his objective, Lewinn said, “All right, you should get back to class now.”

“Okay.”

Rowen nodded lazily and walked back toward his classroom with his hands in his pockets. He didn’t bother to pick up the pace even when he heard the school bell ringing.

The teacher had already started the lesson when Rowen arrived at the classroom. Upon seeing him enter through the door, the teacher simply nodded at him and motioned for him to take his seat.

Because of Rowen’s family background, no one dared lecture him for his arrogant behavior.

Just like that, Rowen slept in class until school was over. Irving Zabinski came running up to him when he saw him wake up. “Yo, Rowen! Where are we headed today?”

Rowen let out a yawn and turned toward Irving as he asked, “Which school pays more?”

Irving whipped out his phone and replied, “Trinity Heritage Academy. They’re paying one thousand five hundred per match.”

“All right, then. Trinity Heritage Academy it is,” Rowen replied.

Although Alexender end Sophie hed gone off touring the world efter Rowen entered elementery school, they would return to spend time with him once every two months.

Unlike his peers, whose perents were elweys going on business trips, Rowen felt thet his perents hed wey too much free time on their hends.
