Being Pursued By Ex-husband

Chapter 496 I Have Been Planning This For A While

While Alexander was not paying attention, Sophia got off the bed. “I'm going to freshen up.” She turned around and quickly ran into the bathroom.

By the time Sophia came out of the bathroom, Alexander was already up and sitting on the edge of the bed. Propping one hand on his thigh, he held his phone with the other hand to answer a call.

Sophia glanced at him. Without saying a word, she sat down at the vanity table.

Alexander turned his head slightly to look at Sophia. After casually responding to the person on the other end of the phone, he hung up and went into the bathroom.

It wasn't that early when they both got up. Although the apartment was regularly cleaned, there wasn't much food in the refrigerator because it had been a while since anyone stayed there.

Sophia was about to suggest going out for breakfast when the doorbell rang.

She instinctively glanced back at Alexander. As he handed her a cup of warm water, he explained, “I ordered breakfast.”

Smiling, Sophia reached out and took the cup. After taking a sip of the warm water, she then sat down at the dining table.

Soon, Alexander returned with breakfast.

By the time they finished breakfast and prepared to leave, it was already around ten o'clock.

While Sophia sat in the car, her heart pounded.

Last night, Alexander mentioned that they would go to register their marriage today. Sophia thought he was just casually mentioning it, but he actually took her to City Hall after breakfast.

When the car stopped, Sophia collected her thoughts and glanced at City Hall across the road. Turning to look at Alexander beside her, she announced, “We've arrived.”

Alexander unfastened his seatbelt and glanced at her. “Yes, we've arrived,” he murmured.

Then, he got out of the car, came around, and opened Sophia's car door. “Let's go.”

Sophia looked up at him and placed her hand on his as she stepped out of the car.

“There are so many people.”

It seemed to be an auspicious day for people to get married because there were many couples at City Hall that day.

As soon as Sophia walked in, she saw a long waiting line. There were already at least twelve couples waiting.

Alexander glanced at Sophia briefly. Then, holding her hand, he kept walking inside until they reached the third person in line. The person was stunned for a moment before quickly smiling at Alexander and Sophia. “Mr. Xenos, Ms. Yarrow, you're here.”

Sophia was taken aback when Alexander pulled her into the queue. It was only then that she realized that he had already arranged for someone to queue for them earlier.

Thanks to Alexander's preparation in advance, they didn't have to wait long at City Hall. Shortly after they arrived, it was their turn to register for marriage.

This wasn't Sophia's first marriage, and she was marrying the same person this time. However, after many years, her state of mind was different.

The whole process didn't take much time. When they came out of City Hall, only half an hour had passed.

Sophia looked down at her second and new marriage certificate in her hand. As she stared at the gold-foiled words “marriage certificate” glinting under the bright sunlight, Sophia suddenly felt dazed.

On the day she and Alexander registered their marriage for the first time, the weather was just as good. At the time, she believed that it was a sign that her married life would be filled with happiness.

However, things didn't go as she had hoped. The past three years of marriage had not been happy for her.
