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?”
“Yeah.”
Sophia nodded and wiped away the tears that welled up in her eyes.
Alexander took the hairdryer and kissed her forehead. “Sleep now. Good night.”
“Good night.”
Sophia glanced at him, turned around, and pulled the blanket over herself. She fell asleep very quickly.
When Alexander came out of the bathroom again, she was already fast asleep.
He raised his hand and turned off the main light in the room, leaving only the nightlight on.
Sophia was in such a deep sleep that she didn't wake up even after he touched her face gently.
Alexander tucked her into the blanket before going to the balcony.
The September breeze was chilly. Gazing at the dark night sky in the distance, he remembered that
Joshua had said to him earlier that day, “Alexander, childbirth is terrifying. If possible, don't let Sophia
go through this suffering.”
Joshua said that when Alexander and Sophia just arrived at the hospital, shortly after Katherine started
having contractions.
Sophia stayed in the ward to divert Katherine's attention while he and Joshua went out to buy some
food.
They spent over an hour outside. Yet, this was the only thing Joshua said to him.
Alexander didn't really have any strong desire for children. If Sophia didn't want any children, he
wouldn't even consider having a child.
Others might call him selfish or cruel, but he only wanted Sophia for himself. He didn't want to share
her with anyone, not even their own child.
However, Sophia seemed to love children a lot.
Alexander remembered a few hours ago when he and Sophia sat outside the delivery room, listening to
Katherine's hysterical shrieks of pain. He finally understood why Joshua had said that to him.
It really was really torturous.
Sophia slept till past nine the next morning. Even eight hours of sleep couldn't compensate for the
tiredness caused by staying up late.
As soon as she woke up, she yawned several times in a row. She got Genie to open the curtains. The
sunlight shone in, lighting up the room.
The weather was very nice.
Sophia stretched before washing up in the bathroom.
When she came out, she saw her phone vibrating on the bedside table.
As she had been on leave these past few days, Yvonne and Felix wouldn't call her under normal
circumstances.
With a raised brow, Sophia picked up her phone and saw that it was a call from Yvonne. “Morning, Ms.
Leighton.”
“Good morning, Ms. Yarrow. I apologize for interrupting your vacation with Mr. Xenos, but something
unexpected has come up. I had no choice but to give you a call...”
“Don't panic. Speak slowly.”
“This matter involves Nina. Ever since Mr. Schild kicked Nina out of the cast a few days ago, there
have been a lot of public discussions. Suddenly, the rumors started targeting you, suggesting that you
changed Nina's role because of jealousy and replaced her with someone from Specter Entertainment.”
Yvonne paused briefly and continued, “Our company's official social media accounts are flooded with
comments from the fans of Nina this and other main leads. They are all demanding justice.”
Upon hearing this, Sophia clicked her tongue and replied, “Let's give it to them, then. Find out who
initiated this, get in touch with Specter Entertainment's public relations team, and send the culprits a
legal notice. Additionally, let's investigate how Nina got the role by going through the back door. We'll
help to seek justice too.”
Yvonne understood what she meant. Not wanting to bother her any further, she said, “Got it, Ms.
Yarrow. I won't disturb you anymore.”
“No problem.”
After ending the call, Sophia recollected what Katherine told her yesterday.
Looks like she's right.
