After the Divorce: Crushed on My Lawyer Ex-wife

#49 “Don’t You Dare Try to Shift the Blame onto Me.”

As Sophia and Evelyn entered the police station, they were focused on the necessary procedures to ensure Evelyn’s safety and well-being. It was a tense atmosphere, and both of them were preoccupied with the task at hand.

As they talked to the police officers, Sophia spotted Alexander exiting the building, and her heart sank. She had hoped to avoid any encounter with him, but fate seemed to have other plans.

Alexander, too, saw Sophia and a wave of emotions washed over him. He had been hoping to catch a glimpse of her, but now that it had happened, he wasn’t sure how to react.

They passed each other like strangers in the hallway, their eyes briefly meeting before they both looked away, as if trying to erase the past and the emotions that still lingered.

Sophia, ever the pragmatist, accepted their estranged state with a heavy heart. She had moved on with her life and had no intention of revisiting the pain Alexander had caused her.

But for Alexander, seeing Sophia again was a painful reminder of what he had lost. He couldn’t help but feel deeply hurt by her indifference. As he walked away with Emily, he couldn’t shake the feeling that their chance encounter had only widened the chasm that separated them.

As Alexander walked away with Emily, he couldn’t help but notice the way Sophia’s eyes were fixed on Emily.

As Sophia watched Alexander’s unwavering support for Emily, her resolve grew stronger. She couldn’t fathom how he could stand by someone who had caused so much pain and turmoil in their lives. To her, it was a matter of principle and justice.

The fact that Alexander seemed willing to let Emily escape prison didn’t sit right with Sophia. She believed that justice should be served, regardless of personal history or connections.
