Mr. Chairman’s Devious Wife by Brey Mitchylle

Chapter 31

The mined sound of the car somehow made her feel better. Sofia looked out at the streets of Springfield, Illinois. It was still eight in the morning, and the sun cast a warm glow over the city

August in Springfield meant clear skies and a gentle breeze that rustled the leaves of the trees lining the streets. Sofia noticed fandes strolling on the sidewalks, kids riding their bikes, and neighbors chatting on their front porches. The city had a peaceful charm that she always loved. It felt comforting, warm, and familiar.

“Are you ready?” Alexander asked. “Karina is already waiting with the media..”

His chuckle echoed inside the car. “You truly wanted to make this as huge as possible. I never expected that fiery attitude from you”

“I don’t know if I should take that as a compliment,” she looked at his side profile. It was Josef who was driving the car while Alexander sat next to her, reading some documents.

However, this fact alone made her wonder why he actually married her. He could take care of his brother even without her.

So, this should not be business-related. She immediately thought of the good-looking blond Hugo standing next to Alexander. Was it possible that the two are… lovers?

He lifted his gaze, and she immediately turned her head away. She tried to hide the panic in her eyes. She was curious but decided not to pry. Their current relationship is good as it is. There is no need to complicate things.

“Soon enough, Sofia arrived a block away from the police station where Karina’s car was waiting for her. She bid Alexander goodbye before getting into Karina’s car. “Who is that?” Karina immediately asked.
