After the Divorce: Crushed on My Lawyer Ex-wife

#247 “Now, I Would Like to Call My First Witness.”

The evening was calm, with a gentle warmth suffusing the apartment as Sophia and Alexander sat down for dinner. The soft clink of cutlery and the savory aroma of the meal created a comforting atmosphere. Sophia, who had been caught up in a whirlwind of emotions and tasks over the past weeks, seemed to carry a lighter air about her.

“I found the dress, Alex,” she said, a smile spreading across her face as she passed him the salad. “It’s more than just beautiful-it made me feel like a bride.”

Alexander looked up from his plate, his eyes shining with happiness and a touch of relief. “I can’t wait to call you my wife,” he replied earnestly. “It’s going to be a beautiful day.”

Sophia nodded, her smile lingering as she thought about the dress and the upcoming wedding. Then her expression sobered slightly as she shifted the conversation toward a more somber topic.

“I’ve finalized everything with the case too,” she continued, her voice steady but carrying a weight. “I want to get it over with, Alex. It’s time to put the past behind us and look forward to our future together.”

Alexander reached across the table, taking her hand in his. “I’ll be right there with you,” he assured her, squeezing her hand gently. “Whatever you need, whatever happens, I’m here.”

Sophia felt a surge of gratitude for his unwavering support. It wasn’t just about the wedding or the simple things like choosing a dress or planning a venue-it was about having someone who stood steadfastly beside her through the challenging waves of her father’s case.
