Chapter 135


    The dishes on the menu were all high-quality products. Naturally, the prices were all over four digits. It


    was obvious that Early March was not a ce visited by ordinary people.


    Sophia had been in Jadeborough for quite some time. However, she wouldn''t have known that such a


    ce existed if she had note with Samuel and the others.


    Each dish cost several thousand. Even if Sophia was rich, she would not have the heart to dine at such


    an extravagant ce.


    However, since it was Samuel''s treat, it was a whole other matter.


    The names of the dishes on the menu were as interesting as the name of the restaurant. However,


    there was a detailed description for every dish, which allowed everyone to know what they were


    ordering.


    Although each dish was staggeringly expensive, it was worth the money if the ingredients were of high


    quality.


    There were five of them. Six dishes and a bowl of soup were more than enough.


    After Sophia and Alexander''s divorce, it seemed that Sophia no longer had the air of a “gold-digger.”


    Everyone''s attitude toward her was noticeably better than before. Charlize, who had always liked


    Sophia''s beautiful looks, took care of thetter in every way now that they were closer to each other.


    The meal was full of smiles andughter, and the atmosphere was harmonious.


    After the meal, Sophia nced at her watch. She had left at two o''clock in the afternoon, and it was


    now almost eight o''clock in the evening.


    The day had passed in the blink of an eye.


    She took a sip of water to get rid of the greasy taste in her mouth. Just as she was about to excuse


    herself, Samuel beat her to it with a question. “Sophia, do you have anything else nned tonight?”


    Sophia''s eyebrows rose when she heard Samuel''s words. She put down the cup and answered, “Are


    you asking me out, Mr. Schild?”


    Samuel choked on his water when he heard that. “Don''t get me wrong. We were thinking of having a


    chat at the bar. If you''re free, why not join us?”


    As he spoke, Samuel nced at Alexander to prove his innocence. Don''t get me wrong! I''m just trying


    to help!


    Sophia smiled. “No thanks. I don''t like going to bars.”


    She did not like bars.


    Samuel did not believe her. “No way. I saw you dancing at Nocturne previously. You looked like a


    regr visitor.”


    Sophia was taken by surprise, but she quickly regained her senses. “Oh, I wanted to turn it down


    tactfully out of respect for you, Mr. Schild.”


    Since he did not care about that, she would not either.


    Samuel instantly understood her words. Sophia did not want to go with them.


    Samuel nced at Alexander. “All right. Let''s meet again next time.”


    Sophia picked up her bag. “Thank you for the meal, Mr. Schild.”


    “You''re wee. I''ll buy you another meal when you''re free.”


    Sophia did not respond. She felt that there would not be another time.


    Seeing that Sophia was about to leave, Charlize stood up hurriedly. “Ms. Yarrow, you''re leaving


    already?”


    After their previous interactions, Sophia had a good impression of Charlize.


    She nodded at thetter''s question. “You all have fun.”


    Charlize replied sullenly, “Okay. We''ve finished eating. Let''s go too, Charles.”


    Charles looked at Charlize and nodded. The group got up and left the private room.

    However, they ran into some acquaintances as they turned the corner.


    Of course, it was Alexander''s acquaintances, not Sophia''s.


    Sophia subconsciously slowed down, trying to distance herself from Alexander.


    She did not want to meet Alexander''s “acquaintance.”


    Ka Fletcher greeted Charles and Samuel first. “Mr. Johnson, Mr. Schild.”


    Then she looked at Alexander. “It''s been a while, Alexander.”


    Alexander nced at Ka and hummed in acknowledgment. He turned back to look at Sophia, who


    had slowed down on purpose. “What''s wrong?”


    He frowned slightly. The concern in his eyes was the opposite of his previous coldness.


    Ka followed Alexander''s gaze, and a meaningful smile spread across her face when she saw


    Sophia. “Mrs. Xenos. Oh, that''s not right. I forgot that you got divorced. Hello, Ms. Yarrow.”


    Ka spoke with a smile, but everyone could hear the mockery in her words.


    Her mockery was expected. She had chased after Alexander for many years, yet he had married


    Sophia, a woman who had appeared out of nowhere.


    Out of everyone, Alexander had chosen to marry someone like Sophia. How could Ka swallow this


    anger?


    The Fletcher family was several sses higher than the White family. In the past, when Alexander and


    Bethany had been a couple, Ka had felt it was unfair. Regardless of family background or looks, she


    did not lose to Bethany. She also knew Alexander for the same amount of time as Bethany. However,


    Alexander had chosen Bethany in the end, and Ka was furious.


    Alexander was an entric man in their circle. No one had ever heard of him spending time with


    someone of the opposite sex. Even Bethany, his official girlfriend, was rarely seen together with him.


    However, there was no news of Alexander having another woman, and Ka slowly epted it and


    gave up no matter how unwilling she was.


    She had thought that Alexander and Bethany would be together until the end until Sophia had suddenly


    appeared out of nowhere five years ago.


    On the day of Alexander and Sophia''s marriage, she had deliberately flown back for more than ten


    hours to see who Sophia was.


    However, Sophia had nothing but her good looks.


    How could Ka give up on the person she liked during her youth? She was already unhappy that she


    lost to Bethany, let alone Sophia, a random woman who appeared out of nowhere.


    In a fit of anger, she had broken into the wedding dressing room and shouted some nasty words while


    pointing at Sophia.


    Not only did she insult thetter, but she had also even wanted to hit her.


    “You shameless woman!”


    However, just as she was about to make a move, Alexander entered with a cold face and ordered for


    her to be taken away.


    After that, Ka returned as soon as she finished her studies to make life difficult for Sophia.


    In Alexander and Sophia''s three years of marriage, Bethany was like a shrew, while Ka was like a


    man-eating flower that wanted to tear Sophia apart.


    The scene before the wedding was the only time Alexander had defended Sophia.


    The reason Sophia endured for three years was all because of what Alexander had said that day. “No


    matter how she is, she is my wife. You have no right to criticize her, Ka!”


    The smile on Sophia''s face instantly faded when she remembered the past.


    However,pared to before, she was no longer ufortable or upset when facing Ka. “Hello,


    Ms. Fletcher.”


    She looked at Ka calmly with a smile in her eyes. It was as though she did not hear the mockery in


    Ka''s words.


    Everyone knew what had happened in the past, but they were in no position to intervene. Charlize was


    worried that Sophia was ufortable. When she was about to speak up, Sophia suddenly smiled and


    said to Ka, “You have a bad memory, Ms. Fletcher. It has been less than a year, but you have


    already forgotten about it. That shouldn''t be the case at your young age.”


    Ka''s face contorted with rage. “So you know that the both of you are divorced. Everyone said that


    you left with no strings attached after the divorce, yet now you''re hanging around Alexander. Sophia,


    have you no shame?”
