Chapter 494 Give You A Surprise

Sophia lowered her head to look at the ring on her finger with a dazed look on her face. It was only when Alexander walked over and pulled her into his embrace did she snap out of it. Looking at him, she asked, “When did you regain your memories?”

The usual indifference in Alexander's eyes was replaced with gentleness as he stroked Sophia's ring. When he lowered his gaze at her, he broke out into a smile. “It happened not long after you returned to the country.” With a raised brow, Sophia asked, “It happened suddenly?”

Alexander's brow twitched, and his gaze returned to Sophia's ring. “Yep.” His reaction only made Sophia feel as if something was wrong, for he was clearly avoiding her gaze.

All of a sudden, she recalled that uneasy feeling she had felt two months ago when she returned from Moranta. That night, she could not sleep well because Alexander did not reply to her text.

Now that she thought about it, she figured something must have happened on the day she left.

“What happened?”

It was clear to Alexander that the matter could not be hidden from her. Moreover, it had been two months since then, not to mention he was fine. In fact, it was a blessing in disguise that he regained his memory because of the incident Bruce and the others caused.

He stared at her for a moment before starting, “There was a little accident that day.”

“A little accident?”

Sophia eyed Alexander with a half-hearted smile, clearly not believing his words.

Sensing her doubt, Alexander caressed her face and smiled helplessly. “On the night you left, I encountered Bruce's men after my meeting. They had guns, so Joe and Allen told me to hide in order to protect me. While they dealt with those men, someone came around and found me. I failed to dodge in time, so I got shot in the abdomen and fell. I remembered everything when I woke up after the surgery.”

Alexander was as cool as a cucumber when he recounted the entire incident. It was as if the incident was nothing.

It had been two months since it happened. Although Alexander had regained his memories and was standing in one piece before Sophia, she could not help but feel shocked.

She subconsciously glanced at his abdomen when she finished listening to his story. “Was it here?”

While saying that, she reached out to lift his shirt.

The scar on Alexander's abdomen was still rather obvious under the bright lights, even though it had been more than two months.

Sophia's head was lowered as she stared at it, her finger that held the shirt trembling.

After staring at it for some time, she looked up at him and gently placed her finger on the scar. “Does it still hurt?”

Alexander took her hand and shook his head. “Not anymore.”

In fact, he did not feel any pain when he got shot since he passed out after his fall.

Then again, they were living in an era of peace. He knew Sophia would be worried sick if he told her about him getting shot.

Bruce and Truce also kept a watchful eye on Alexander during that period of time. That was why the latter dared not contact Sophia even after regaining his memories. For one, he feared the duo might attack Sophia out of desperation. Secondly, he wanted to deal with the duo as soon as he recovered and give Sophia a surprise.

Now that Bruce and Truce were not worth being afraid of, Alexander naturally did not want to wait any longer.
