Being Pursued By Ex-husband
Chapter 346

Chapter 346

It was around eight when they left the hotel. That was pretty early.

Sophia looked out of the window and noticed the road was crowded with cars. Suddenly, she wasreminded of Charlize's words and couldn't help but chuckle out loud.

Alexander, who was sitting next to her, felt his eyelashes twitch when he heard her chuckle. “Why areyou laughing?”

“It's nothing. I was just reminded of something funny.”

“Mm?”

Sophie turned to look at him and was about to explain when she noticed his expression turning icy.Without warning, he swerved the car, which ended up crashing into the median strip aside.

The airbag popped up and hit Sophia's face, making her a little dizzy. It took her a few seconds for herto regain her composure. She quickly asked, “Alexander, are you okay?”

“I'm fine.”

The other vehicle had made a turn and was coming directly toward them. In order to prevent Sophiafrom getting injured, Alexander steered the wheel to the right, causing the other car to collide with theside of his own. As a result, their car veered off and crashed onto the median strip.

Alexander's head was throbbing from the forceful crash. He reached up and touched his head, cominginto contact with a sticky liquid.

Alexander looked down and realized he was bleeding.

Sophia's heart leaped to her throat when she saw that. “Your head is injured. Let's get out of the car.”

They were both conscious after the accident. Sophia wasn't seriously injured and was feeling slightlydizzy from the impact of the airbag. However, Alexander was injured, with a gash on his forehead fromthe shattered glass, as well as having hit the back of his head.

Sophia opened the door and stepped out. Her vision blurred for a short moment before it cleared. Shequickly went over to Alexander's side to help him out.

Alexander's forehead was marred with a deep cut, just one millimeter away from his eye. Bloodcontinued to seep out of the injury, making for a gruesome spectacle.

Sophia reached into her bag and pulled out a packet of tissues. She handed two of them to him. “Applypressure to your wound while I call the police,” she instructed.

“Mm.”

Alexander accepted the tissues and pressed them to his cut. He also fished out his phone to call Felix.

The other vehicle had flipped over, and the driver's fate was unknown. Several onlookers rushed overto extricate the driver from the wreckage. Despite suffering severe injuries and limping, he was stillcapable of communicating.

The ambulance soon arrived, followed by Felix.

Alexander and Sophia got into the ambulance. The nurse dressed Alexander's wound so it finallystopped bleeding.

At the hospital, they both did a thorough checkup.

Alexander and Sophia had minor concussions. Besides that, Alexander suffered from some minorscratches. Sophia fared slightly better as she only suffered from a swollen arm. It would subside in thenext few days.

Other than that, they were mostly fine. They were incredibly lucky to survive the accident.

After that, they went to the police station to record their statements.

When the accident occurred, Sophia was looking at Alexander and didn't see anything.

Nevertheless, Alexander kept his focus on the road. The other vehicle had blatantly run a red light, andupon the light turning green on their side, it came hurtling toward them. If Alexander had not reacted intime, both cars would have collided, resulting in a trip to the operating room for Sophia and himself thatvery night.

The police also went to the hospital to record the driver's statement and administer a breathalyzer test.The test results indicated that the driver was under the influence of alcohol and would bear fullresponsibility for the accident.

It was almost eleven when they were finally allowed to leave the police station.

Felix was waiting outside in his car. Upon spotting them, he opened the door and greeted, “Mr. Xenos,Ms. Yarrow.”

Sophia nodded and entered the car.

Half an hour later, the car rolled to a stop outside Sophia's mansion.

“Mr. Xenos, I've canceled the meeting tomorrow,” Felix reported.

Alexander grunted in acknowledgment as he stepped out of the car. With a hand hovering above thedoor, he waited for Sophia to get out.

They were both caught unaware by the sudden accident.

Sophia felt better after taking a shower.

She glanced at Alexander, who was about to step into the shower. “Remember to keep your wounddry.”

Alexander turned over his shoulder and assured her, “I know.”

Knowing news of their accident would most probably get out tomorrow, Sophia took her phone to textKatherine: I was involved in a minor car accident. I'm fine, though.

Katherine loved pulling all-nighters, so she immediately read the text and replied: What happened?

Why did you suddenly get into an accident?

Sophia sighed, which was rare for her. She typed: We got unlucky.

Indeed, they were unlucky to get hit by a driver driving under the influence.

Katherine: Did you get hurt?

Sophia: No.

Katherine heaved a sigh of relief and urged her to go to bed early, which was unusual because sheloved chatting with Sophia.

Sophia felt tired. Her head had been throbbing since the accident occurred.

After their chat ended, she pondered for a moment before deciding to phone Yvonne and cancel themorning meeting scheduled for the following day.

Shortly after, Alexander stepped out of the shower. Sophia jolted out of her thoughts and asked, “CouldDillon be the mastermind behind this accident?”

Dillon would be a fool if he had indeed resorted to despicable means to harm them.

News that Alexander wasn't a Xenos just got out this morning, and they met at the dinner that night. IfDillon was the one who arranged for this accident, then his intentions were glaringly obvious toeveryone.

Alexander came over to her and stroked her face. “No. He isn't that foolish.”

Sophia huffed. “I knew it.”

The cut on Alexander's forehead was at least five centimeters long. It was bleeding profusely beforethe nurse dressed it, so she remembered panicking at the gory sight.

The wound was now dressed and bandaged, and it wasn't visible anymore.

Sophia reached up to touch it gently. “Does it hurt a lot?”

“It doesn't hurt,” Alexander told her.

He switched off the lights and left one night lamp on. He then pulled her onto the bed. “Let's sleep.”

“Okay.”

At the same time, Dillon had just received news about Alexander's accident. He burst out laughing andasked, “Did he die?”

The person at the other end of the line responded awkwardly, “He's fine. He only sustained some minorinjuries.”

Dillon snorted icily. “He got lucky.”

Right then, Tyler came downstairs and noticed Dillon was in a good mood. He asked, “Dad, why do youlook happy?”

Dillon harrumphed. “I received a call just now informing me that Alexander and Sophia were in a caraccident on their way back home.”

Tyler laughed upon hearing the news, too. “Really? Did they die?”

Their similar reactions confirmed that they were father and son.

Dillon sighed in disappointment. “He's still alive but sustained some minor injuries.”

“Oh, what a pity.” Tyler tutted. Suddenly, something occurred to him, and he suggested, “Dad, whydon't we...”

He trailed off as a menacing look flashed across his face.

Dillon grew flustered. “Are you stupid? It's a mess right now. If we take action, the police will definitelycome to us!”

Tyler reflected on his words and nodded in agreement. “You're right. We can't take action now.”

Dillon glanced at him. “Don't worry. Alexander will meet his doom soon. He won't be able to survive forlong.”

Tyler nodded eagerly. “I can't wait to see him getting kicked out of Odyssey!”

“Don't worry. That will happen soon.”

Dillon was pretty confident with his plan. If we can covertly continue to purchase Odyssey's shares overtime, I can eventually strike a decisive blow against Alexander. Even if he resists leaving, the othershareholders will force him out of the company. It's hard to believe that one day I'll have control ofOdyssey! Lady luck is on my side, huh? It's absurd that Alexander isn't even Zachary's son.
