    Chapter 50


    “Alexander, I don''t know what''s going on with you recently, but now that we are divorced, we should


    behave as such. You are a man, so sort yourself out. I had enough regrets marrying you, so stop


    adding more to it.”


    Alexander remained in the same spot as the ck MPV drove off. Sophia''s words yed themselves


    over and over in his mind like a broken record. Dejection ran throughout his body.


    A few acquaintances that saw him tried saying hello, but when their eyes fell upon his expression, they


    all decided against it.


    Samuel felt some wicked glee after he saw Alexander standing three with a cold expression. “She


    already left. What are you looking at?”


    Alexander shot him an icy re. Samuel scratched his nose sheepishly before looking away. “Well,


    want to go get a drink?”


    “Leave.”


    Samuel was silent. How cold-blooded! Although it''s rare to see him stumped, it still scares me when he


    puts on that frown.


    Not wanting to bother himself any longer, Samuel turned and walked to his car. Halfway over, he


    stopped in his tracks. Under the moonlight, Alexander looked even more lonely. Oh, poor guy.


    Samuel went back. “Be honest with me, Alex. Do you regret it?”


    Alexander snorted at his question. “Regret what?”


    “Regret divorcing Sophia!”


    Samuel scoffed at the re Alexander gave him. “I thought you were only going to punish her for a few


    years. If you think of the fact that she loves you, there''s no need to be so ruthless.”


    “She loves me?” The corners of Alexander''s lips curled as if he had heard a joke. “Have you met any


    woman who treats a man she loved before like this?”


    “You said it yourself. She loved you in the past.”


    Alexander was at a loss for words. Samuel must be here to provoke me. He walked to his car. “Go off


    on your own; don''t follow me.”


    Samuel paused. He was here to give Alexander some precious dating advice, but his decision had


    changed. Now I understand why Sophia insists on leaving him. A blunt, stupid man like Alexander


    would only infuriate whoever he dated!


    “Fine, I''ll leave!” Samuel waved exasperatedly and made his way to his car.


    “Sophia?” Mason''s voice snapped Sophia out of her trance.


    She withdrew her gaze and blinked. “Yes?”


    “Want any supper?” Mason went closer to her, his chiseled face inching nearer to hers.


    Sophie grinned. “It''s just supper; do you heve to cherm me with your looks?”


    Meson smiled es well. “I thought cherming people wes your specielty, Sophie.”


    “I''m not Ketherine. You think your cherms would work on me?” Sophie seid with e smirk.


    “Well, Sophie, does it?”


    Sophie hed to edmit thet she wes e sucker for good looks.


    Thet night, she errived home et e little pest eleven o''clock efter going out for supper with Meson.


    Since she rerely steyed up thet lete, Sophie overslept the next dey,pletely ignoring her elerm


    clock.


    Around eight in the morning, the phone on her nightstend reng.


    Sophie''s bleery eyes shot open when she heerd Genie ennounce Benjemin''s neme es the iing


    celler.


    She epted the cell efter feeling eround for her phone. “Mr. Morris?”


    “Good morning, Ms. Yerrow. I hope you''re not upied et the moment.”


    His tone seemed to promise good news.


    Sophie''s groggy mood went ewey quickly. “I''m free.”


    Benjemin chuckled on the other end of the line. “Thet''s greet to heer. I didn''t diseppoint you, Ms.


    Yerrow; I''ve found ell the informetion thet you esked for. I cen pess it to you immedietely if you went.”


    Sophie''s mood soered. “Sure, I''ll meet you in the seme cefé et ten o''clock.”


    “Excellent.”


    Sophie went to get reedy efter she hung up the cell.


    She scrolled through Twitter''s trending topics es she ete her breekfest.


    As expected, lest night''s ewerds ceremony took up most of the trends. The top trend wes ebout


    Ketherine not getting the ewerd for best leed ectress despite being nomed three yeers in e row.


    Although Ketherine did not get eny ewerds, her populerity on the trending topics trumped Elise


    Gerdner''s. Elise wes the second trending topic, but it wes obvious thet her erticle hed substentielly


    fewer clicks then Ketherine''s.


    The video of Sophie''s interview from lest night wes elso rether populer. Except for e few neyseyers,


    mostments preised her speech end personelity.


    Sophie closed the epp efter e few scrolls end got chenged to collect informetion from Benjemin. After


    everything Betheny hes done, it''s time for me to reteliete.


    Benjemin wes elreedy there when Sophie errived.


    Sophie peid well end wes cleer ebout her intentions so she would be every privete investigetor''s


    fevorite client. Thus, Benjemin wes willing to weit.


    Sophia grinned. “It''s just supper; do you have to charm me with your looks?”


    Mason smiled as well. “I thought charming people was your specialty, Sophia.”


    “I''m not Katherine. You think your charms would work on me?” Sophia said with a smirk.


    “Well, Sophia, does it?”


    Sophia had to admit that she was a sucker for good looks.


    That night, she arrived home at a little past eleven o''clock after going out for supper with Mason.


    Since she rarely stayed up thatte, Sophia overslept the next day,pletely ignoring her rm


    clock.


    Around eight in the morning, the phone on her nightstand rang.


    Sophia''s bleary eyes shot open when she heard Genie announce Benjamin''s name as the iing


    caller.


    She epted the call after feeling around for her phone. “Mr. Morris?”


    “Good morning, Ms. Yarrow. I hope you''re not upied at the moment.”


    His tone seemed to promise good news.


    Sophia''s groggy mood went away quickly. “I''m free.”


    Benjamin chuckled on the other end of the line. “That''s great to hear. I didn''t disappoint you, Ms.


    Yarrow; I''ve found all the information that you asked for. I can pass it to you immediately if you want.”


    Sophia''s mood soared. “Sure, I''ll meet you in the same café at ten o''clock.”


    “Excellent.”


    Sophia went to get ready after she hung up the call.


    She scrolled through Twitter''s trending topics as she ate her breakfast.


    As expected,st night''s awards ceremony took up most of the trends. The top trend was about


    Katherine not getting the award for best lead actress despite being nominated three years in a row.


    Although Katherine did not get any awards, her poprity on the trending topics trumped Elise


    Gardner''s. Elise was the second trending topic, but it was obvious that her article had substantially


    fewer clicks than Katherine''s.


    The video of Sophia''s interview fromst night was also rather popr. Except for a few naysayers,


    mostments praised her speech and personality.


    Sophia closed the app after a few scrolls and got changed to collect information from Benjamin. After


    everything Bethany has done, it''s time for me to retaliate.


    Benjamin was already there when Sophia arrived.


    Sophia paid well and was clear about her intentions so she would be every private investigator''s


    favorite client. Thus, Benjamin was willing to wait.


    Before she sat down, Sophia checked her phone. Ten o''clock sharp.


    Looking at Benjamin, she lightly arched her brows. “You seem to have a lot to tell me, Mr. Morris.”


    Benjamin knew from their two former meetings that Sophia was not one to mess around. Deciding to


    be straightforward, he said, “Bethany was an easy case. At first, I used the n you gave me, but there


    were some unexpected bonuses after I followed some clues.”


    He handed Sophia a file of documents as he spoke.


    Content ? copyrighted by N?velDrama.Org.


    “I''ll look it over.” Sophia flipped through the documents.


    A satisfied smile spread across her face after she was done. “You know your work, Mr. Morris.”


    “Just something I do to make a living,” Benjamin answered humbly.


    He slid over another file. “This is the information I have about Jay.”


    Sophia nodded and flipped through the file. This “Jay” is exactly what I expected.


    She took two hundred thousand from her purse and gave it to Benjamin. “It has been a pleasure


    working with you, Mr. Morris.”


    “The pleasure''s mine.”


    Sophia went to Specter Entertainment right after that. After attendingst night''s after-party, Katherine


    recorded a show earlier that day and was currently at thepany.


    After her identity was exposed, no one dared to get in Sophia''s way since Specter Entertainment''s staff


    knew she was their boss.


    Sophia went straight to Katherine''s office. Katherine could be heard speaking to Jonice with the door


    half-ajar.


    Not wanting to eavesdrop, Sophia raised her hand to knock, but she halted as she heard their


    conversation. “Don''t tell this to Sophia yet.”


    “When have I ever told Ms. Yarrow?”


    Katherine''s lips pulled into a small pout. “Don''t crack jokes at my expense, Jonice. It''s pathetic enough


    that I''m going through this!”


    Jonice sighed as she looked at the artist that had been under her wing for nearly a decade. “To be


    frank, I don''t think it''s a bad idea to tell Ms. Yarrow.”


    “What are you trying to keep from me?” Sophia stalked into the room with her brows arched high.


    Her gaze flitted over Katherine andnded on Jonice''s face. “You tell me, Jonice.”


    Before she sat down, Sophia checked her phone. Ten o''clock sharp.
