Being Pursued By Ex-husband

Chapter 458 You Might Not Know

Samuel assumed Sophia was upset as Alexander had lost his memories. If Alex did something stupid unknowingly, I can help him by complimenting him. That way, Sophia might be generous enough to forgive him.

Without hesitation, he revealed his friend's doings. "You may not know this, but Alex's mother... I mean, Kristen. She came to him with a stack of photos about six months after you married him, claiming that you were cheating on him with someone else. She asked him to divorce you, but Alex didn't say a word. He took the photos and original copies from her but didn't mention anything about divorcing you after that."

After a pause, he continued, "If you don't believe me, you can visit the condominium Alex previously stayed in. The photos are in his bedside drawer. I didn't know anything until I visited him during the holidays. He pulled out a photo of you walking out of a hotel with another man and asked me if the man was more handsome than him. I got curious and asked about the photo, so he told me about it. That was how I got to know about that incident."

Sophia lowered her eyes. "What else?"

"Oh, yes. He bought a pair of wedding rings and left them in his closet at the condominium. I was the one who recommended the designer to him. I think he never gave it to you, or else you wouldn't have asked for a divorce."

Samuel grew increasingly excited as he continued to reveal what he knew. "There's also another incident that I bet you had no idea about. The year after you got married, you suddenly had a fever and fainted, right? When you brought lunch to Alex that day, he noticed that you didn't look well. Not long after you left, he followed you back to the Xenos residence. When you fainted, Kristen initially didn't want to send you to the hospital, so Alex had to carry you and take you to the hospital himself. He left before you woke up. Kristen and Thalia never liked you, so I bet they never mentioned anything about it to you."

"Mm. They never told me anything," came Sophia's answer.

Hanging her head, she stared at the back of her hand, lost in her thoughts.

Something occurred to Samuel, and he suddenly flashed a mysterious smile. "Oh, another thing. Alex used to eat the meals you delivered to him! He thought you had prepared them yourself, but you lied and said the chef had made them because you were afraid he wouldn't eat them otherwise. After your divorce, he got drunk one day and told me that he had no idea that you didn't personally prepare the meals."

The more excited Samuel got, the more things he remembered. Noticing that Sophia had fallen silent, he quickly shot her a look. "Sophia, are you all right?"

They were once close, and it was both cruel and sad that Alexander no longer remembered anything.

Samuel belatedly realized he shouldn't have revealed this much. Alex's right. Sometimes, I'm too talkative.

Sophia looked up and gave him a smile. "Anything else, Mr. Schild?"

The sight of Sophia's reddened eyes made Samuel flustered. That was the first time he had ever seen her cry. "Don't cry, Sophia. I'm here to apologize to you, not to make you cry! Please don't cry. If Alex finds out about this, he'll skin me alive!"

Sophia covered her eyes with her hands and said, "I'm not a crybaby. Please continue. I would like to hear more."

Kristen often complained about you to him, but he chose to ignore her. He even scolded Thalia and her friends for bullying you. As for Bethany, she and Alex were never romantically involved.
