Fortunately, the awkwardness didn't last long. The oatmeal was always simmering in the kitchen of the
restaurant, so the two didn't have to wait long before the food was packed and ready to be collected.
Felix hurriedly reached out to receive the takeaway. Having been Alexander's secretary for many years,
handling all those minor details was already second nature to him.
However, before his fingertips could touch the bag, Alexander had already raised his hand to grab it.
Looking at Felix's outstretched arm, Alexander frowned slightly.
Felix had never felt so embarrassed in his more than thirty years of living. “I'm sorry, Mr. Xenos.”
At that point, Alexander's attention was no longer on Felix. He was looking at an old man passing by
the window. The old man had a basket of flowers in his hand.
Shifting his gaze following Alexander's line of vision, Felix saw an old man and felt a little curious.
Still, after what had happened earlier, he didn't dare to utter another word.
Alexander took the oatmeal and went out. After a momentary daze, Felix regained his senses and
hurriedly gave chase.
As soon as he stepped out of the restaurant, Felix saw Alexander had already approached the old
man.
Felix watched in astonishment as Alexander handed some money to the old man and took the basket
of fresh flowers from the latter. When did my boss become so charitable?
Felix was shocked to his core. While he was lost in thought, Alexander had retraced his steps. When
he saw Felix standing there, he called out, “Mr. Lane?”
Hearing Alexander's words, Felix came back to his senses. He found the image of Alexander holding a
bag of takeaway oatmeal in his left hand and a basket of flowers in his right hand. In the end, he
couldn't help but ask, “Mr. Xenos, why did you buy the flowers?”
“My wife likes flowers.”
The old man's basket was filled with hydrangeas, and Alexander knew Sophia liked them. They had
planted a bush at their mansion, but it had just been planted and hadn't grown yet.
Having endured another public display of affection, Felix felt envious and emotional. Who would've
thought that Alexander, who two years ago had disdained Ms. Yarrow to his core, now can't stop talking
about her? Tsk tsk tsk. There is indeed a bane for everything in this world.
Alexander returned to the car, and the vehicle gradually drove away.
Twenty minutes later, the car came to a halt before the mansion.
While Alexander was walking up to the second floor of the mansion, Sophia was talking on the phone
with Katherine. Sophia couldn't help but chuckle at the sight of the items he was carrying. “Where did
that flower come from?”
On the other end of the line, Katherine was baffled after hearing that. “What flower? I didn't mention
anything about a flower.”
Sophia snorted. “Alexander is back. I'm hanging up now. I'll talk to you later.”
She ended the call as she spoke and strode up to Alexander.
He handed the basket of flowers to her. “I bought it on the way.”
She laughed quietly. “Did you deliberately ask the driver to stop the car so you can buy the flowers?”
Fortunately, they owned the car and employed the driver. Otherwise, others might think Alexander was
toying with them.
He shook his head. “No. I saw it when I was purchasing oatmeal.”
Only then did Sophia notice the bag of oatmeal in his hand. “Why did you suddenly buy oatmeal? You
haven't had your dinner yet?”
Alexander put down the flower basket and caressed her. “I was afraid you might be hungry.”
Sophia was stumped. She had frequently been feeling hungry at that hour recently.
Perhaps it was because of her pregnancy, having to carry a new life within her, so she easily got
hungry around that time of night. Additionally, her appetite wasn't great, so her food intake was only
about the same as usual.
He put down the oatmeal. “Do you want to eat now?”
Initially, Sophia didn't feel hungry before Alexander mentioned it. Now that he did, she realized she was
indeed starving a little. “Yes.”
Alexander helped her open the packaging of the oatmeal. Sophia walked over, and when she lifted her
hand to take the spoon, her hand brushed against his sleeve, which felt cold to touch.
Sophia arched her brow and reached out to grope his sleeve. “Why is it wet?”
He glanced downward nonchalantly before replying, “When I was exiting the private room, a waiter
spilled some wine on me.”
Alexander didn't want to bring up Charlotte to add to Sophia's worry, and Sophia didn't probe further
either.
She trusted him implicitly with regard to those matters. Besides, if Alexander had planned to cheat on
her, he had plenty of opportunities to do so when he was abroad. Now that he had returned home and
was about to become a father, Sophia believed Alexander would remain level-headed in his actions
and decisions.
Moreover, Sophia also discovered that Alexander was very fastidious about certain things.
After gathering her thoughts, she lowered her head and chowed down the oatmeal.
Alexander had been handling all the cooking at home recently, and Sophia felt that she had been
spoiled.
The oatmeal served before her wasn't bad, but it fell short compared to what Alexander prepared.
Nevertheless, considering Alexander's thoughtfulness in buying the oatmeal for her, Sophia
supportively ate more than half of it.
With about a quarter left, she couldn't eat anymore. She grinned at Alexander, sitting beside her. “Mr.
Xenos, you don't mind helping me finish the rest, right?”
Sophia had been educated since she was young never to waste food. Now that she was an adult, the
habit cultivated during her childhood was ingrained in her. No matter how good her living conditions
were, she still disliked wasting food.
“Why would I mind?” He picked up the bowl and finished the remaining oatmeal.
Sophia propped her chin up with one hand and watched Alexander eat.
She had to admit that Alexander's countenance perfectly matched her taste. He's indeed handsome.
She looked down and touched her belly, feeling that the unborn baby inside her was truly fortunate to
have such a good-looking father and a beautiful mother. Ah. This baby chose its parents well.
Sophia had always adopted a healthy lifestyle. Now that she was pregnant, her daily routine remained
the same as before. By about half-past ten at night, she had already finished washing up and was
resting.
Looking at the sound-asleep Sophia, Alexander carefully got up from the bed.
The room was very dark, and he walked toward the door without turning on the lights, relying only on
his muscle memory.
When he exited the room, he took out his phone and dialed Felix's number.
At that moment, Felix had just finished showering. He came out of the bathroom and saw his phone
ringing. Picking up the device, Felix noticed it was a call from Alexander, so he hurriedly answered, “Mr.
Xenos?”
“Yes,” he responded with a frown. “Help me investigate the waiter from the hotel tonight.”
Alexander was focused on his thought to return home and accompany Sophia then, so he didn't dwell
on that matter. However, after Sophia mentioned it just now, he pondered briefly and found the incident
suspicious.
All the waiters employed by major hotels would have to undergo three months of training. Other
mistakes might be forgivable, but spilling wine and bumping into customers were errors that shouldn't
have happened.
In addition, Charlotte showing up and being a nuisance afterward caused Alexander to find that matter
all the more shady.
Felix was startled. After a momentary daze, he regained his senses and hurriedly nodded. “All right, Mr.
Xenos. I'll arrange for someone to carry out the investigation at once!” Then, he was reminded of
something related to Charlotte as he spoke. “Mr. Xenos, Charlotte seemed to have bought a ticket to
Frosa tomorrow.”
Alexander scoffed. “Let her leave, then. I don't ever want to see her again!” She's so annoying and
troublesome!
