Being Pursued By Ex-husband

After the two left the police station, they went to a nearby barbeque restaurant.

Although Sophia was not a germaphobe, she still preferred a quiet and clean dining environment.

She refused to make herself uncomfortable for the sake of disgusting Alexander.

It was simply not worth it.

The two of them were dressed fashionably and were both outstandingly good-looking. Hence, they attracted a lot of attention the moment they entered.

The waiter led them to a table by the window, and Sophia smoothly scanned the QR code with her phone to order once she was seated.

It was Alexander's first time eating at a barbeque restaurant. The pungent smell that filled the restaurant made his nose scrunch in distaste.

He glanced at Sophia, who was sitting opposite him. She was ordering her food with a serious expression and did not show the slightest discomfort.

He knew that she was doing this on purpose. However, he was more than happy to endure it.

Alexander scanned the QR code and scrolled through the menu. There was nothing he wanted to eat.

Sophia had already ordered for herself. After checking the bill, she realized that Alexander had not ordered anything. She looked at him with raised eyebrows and called out to him, “Alexander.”

He raised his head to look at her. “Yes?”

There was a peculiar intensity in his eyes; he had never looked at her this way before.

Sophia pursed her lips and suddenly felt that it was meaningless. She swallowed her previous words and said instead, “There is another restaurant upstairs that sells steaks. You'll probably find something that suits your taste there.”

Her words were calm and did not contain any hidden meaning behind them.

However, Alexander felt a flicker of irritation. “How do you know that I don't like anything here?”

Sophia almost blurted out, “Because you're a germaphobe.”

However, she held her tongue. “You didn't order anything,” she replied instead.

“It's my first time here.”

“Oh. The tripe is great, and the duck blood is nice too. The pork loin cooks quickly and is tender. Those are all great choices.”

Her recommendations were all internal organs. She thought Alexander would get angry and leave, but he accepted it without question and ordered according to what she said.

Neither of them was willing to give in. Sophia placed the order. By the look of things, she had lost this round.

Soon, the waiter returned to serve them the dishes.

Sophia ordered two different spicy sauces. She did not eat spicy food much but wanted to order it to spite Alexander.

As expected, Alexander's expression changed when he saw it.

Sophia started preparing the tableware and pre-heated the grill. Soon, all the dishes she ordered were served.

Sophia startad praparing tha tablawara and pra-haatad tha grill. Soon, all tha dishas sha ordarad wara sarvad.

The pork loin had a strong smell. Sophia could smell it, even though it was placed on Alexander's side of the table.

She started grilling the ingredients.

Alexander did not move at all. The smell of the pork loin was making him nauseous.

He looked over at Sophia. She did not seem to be bothered by the stench.

Alexander could not understand why people liked eating barbeque. Everyone's utensils would touch the grill when they picked up the meat. Who knows how much saliva was mixed together in the food?

Of course, he was not resenting Sophia. He just could not stand the smell of the pork loin.

Sophia ignored him and ate nonchalantly.

Alexander sat there with his fork in his hand but did not eat anything.

He actually wanted to eat but had never eaten barbeque before. Hence, he did not know how long it took for the meat to cook.

Several pieces of beef were suddenly placed on his plate, which surprised Alexander.

His eyes turned to look at Sophia.

“The ingredients are fresh.”

Sophia did not want to tease him any longer. She waved the waiter over and asked them to remove the tripe, duck blood, and pork loin.

In truth, she did not really want to eat those dishes either.

“Miss, is there a problem with these?”

The waiter naturally wanted to know why she wanted to remove the three dishes.

Sophia glanced at Alexander. “It's nothing. We just ordered the wrong food. Help me deliver these dishes to that table over there,” Sophia said while pointing to a table of young men and women.

“All right, I'll deliver it for you.”

Sophia nodded. “Thank you.”

As soon as she retracted her gaze, she met Alexander's eyes.

He was already looking at her. “It doesn't taste too bad.”
