Being Pursued By Ex-husband

Chapter 629 I Am Serious

Meanwhile, Alexander paid no attention to whatever the few men thought and led Sophia into a different private room.

Taking a seat, Sophia took a sip of warm water. “Prestige is considered a long-established company, right?”

Prestige was none other than Wilbur and the few other men’s company. It wasn’t that Sophia was afraid of creating trouble, but she genuinely believed that a collaboration between Odyssey and Prestige could be mutually beneficial.

At her question, Alexander cast a glance at her. While taking the menu for her, he answered, “Yeah, but they’re not the only outstanding company in the country.”

Hearing that, Sophia immediately grasped his meaning. She dipped her head and scanned her eyes over the menu, ordering two signature dishes before turning her attention back to Alexander, propping her hand under her chin. “After today’s incident, will I be labeled as a ‘femme fatale’?”

Despite knowing that it was deliberate on her part, Alexander could not stand to hear her degrading herself in such a manner as he flipped through the menu. “They wouldn’t dare publicize this matter.”

He snorted before snagging the order chit and adding another three dishes.

No sooner had he finished ordering than someone pushed open the door to the private room. The person who stepped in was Wesley, followed by Lionel, who was behaving arrogantly earlier.

“Mr. Xenos, Mr. Lindbeck was a bit too rash earlier because he imbibed. Now that he has sobered up, he came to apologize to you and Mrs. Xenos.”

Alexander bore his eyes into Wesley. The latter was so terrified by the stare that he almost could not maintain the smile on his face.

Sweeping his gaze over Wesley, Alexander fixed his eyes on Lionel.

Right then, Lionel showed a marked improvement in his demeanor. As he noticed Alexander’s gaze on him, he put on an ingratiating smile. “Mr. and Mrs. Xenos, I must apologize for my inappropriate comments earlier. I spoke out of turn after having a few drinks, and I hope you won’t take it to heart.”

Alas, Alexander did not bother mincing his words at all. “We never take insignificant people to heart.”
