After the Divorce: Crushed on My Lawyer Ex-wife

#243 “Meeting Your Mother Feels Like A Big Deal.”

As the plane soared through the sky towards Minnesota, Alexander couldn’t shake off his nerves. He fidgeted in his seat, constantly adjusting his tie and checking his phone. Sophia couldn’t help but find his behavior amusing.

Sophia laughed. “Oh, don’t worry. It’s nothing bad. She just likes to test people to see how they handle themselves.”
