After the Divorce: Crushed on My Lawyer Ex-wife

#140 “You can’t Keep Your Hands off Each Other.”

Alexander and Sophia strolled back to her hotel holding hands, the air buzzed with a newfound connection. Evelyn, already at the front desk sorting out their room, couldn’t contain her excitement upon seeing the couple. Her jubilant reaction was immediate.

“Finally,” she exclaimed, throwing her hands in the air in triumph. “I knew, I just knew.”

Sophia chuckled at her friend’s enthusiasm, and Alexander wrapped an arm around Sophia’s waist, their shared joy evident.

“Look, you can’t keep your hands off each other,” Evelyn teased. “I’m happy for you.”

“Thank you,” Sophia responded, squeezing Evelyn’s hand in a friendly gesture.

“That went much better than I expected,” Alexander sighed dramatically.

“Don’t think I’ve forgiven you for the past, Alexander, but you’re a good man, and I know you’ll be on your best behavior this time,” Evelyn declared, fixing him with a knowing look.

“Of course. I intend to correct all my mistakes,” Alexander responded.

In the midst of this camaraderie, Sandro joined the group, offering his greetings. Tension crackled between him and Alexander. Alexander harbored resentment for the danger Sandro had inadvertently placed Sophia and Evelyn in.

“Girls, I am very sorry to see you go. And I want to sincerely apologize to you for everything that happened,” Sandro began, addressing the elephant in the room.

Alexander gritted his teeth, trying to conceal his true feelings. He reminded himself that Sandro was Sophia’s friend and Kyle’s cousin.

“I decided to investigate the reasons for all this and found out that a member of my company was involved in dealings with the mafia. I assure you that the necessary measures have already been taken, and he will be punished. I’m most sorry that you had to go through this terrible…” Sandro continued, offering an explanation and an apology.

“Sandro, everything is fine. The important thing is that you have found who is to blame and that we are all fine, “Sophia gracefully responded. “Other than that, we had a lot of fun thanks to you.”
