After the Divorce: Crushed on My Lawyer Ex-wife

#228 “I’ll Try to be More Careful, I Promise.”

Sophia chuckled softly at Alexander’s worried tone, her heart warming at his concern.

“Relax, honey, it’s alright. I already have the last diary and I’m safely tucked in bed. Nothing bad happened,” she reassured him, her voice laced with affection.

But Alexander’s tone turned stern, his worry evident in his voice. “You promised me, Sophia. Promise no more reckless stunts,” he demanded, a hint of frustration seeping through his words. “I don’t have the same power anymore. If I couldn’t help you…”

“Alexander, my love, I can handle myself,” Sophia interjected, her voice gentle yet firm. “And this time, you needed help because you’re in this position because of me.”

Alexander let out a heavy sigh, his frustration evident. “God, Sophia, don’t blame yourself,” he pleaded. ” You didn’t do anything wrong. The only one to blame is my father. Clear?”

Sophia fell silent for a moment, grappling with her emotions.

“Love, I can’t believe it,” Alexander continued, his voice softening. “I can’t believe you’ve been blaming yourself all this time. And risking so much just to help me. Sophia, listen to me. I want only you. This company can burn to the ground, I don’t care. I just want us to be together. If I have to, I’ll start over, and build a new life, but I want you in it. Nothing is worth the risk of losing you, you know?”

Sophia’s heart swelled with emotion at Alexander’s heartfelt words. She took a deep breath, feeling overwhelmed by the depth of his love and commitment.

“Alexander,” she began softly, her voice tinged with emotion, “I’m sorry for making you worry. You’re right. Blaming myself won’t change anything. I’ll try to be more careful, I promise.”

There was a brief pause as Alexander absorbed her words, his voice filled with warmth. “Thank you, Sophia. That’s all I ask. Just promise me you’ll stay safe. This time for real.”

“I promise,” she replied, her voice steady with determination.

“Good,” Alexander said, a sense of relief evident in his tone. “Now, let’s focus on the next steps. We’ll get through this together, okay?”

Sophia smiled, feeling a renewed sense of hope. “Okay,” she agreed. “Together.

With that, they exchanged words of love and reassurance, their bond stronger than ever as they faced the challenges ahead as a united front.

Sophia’s hands trembled slightly as she held the diary, her heart pounding with anticipation and anxiety. She took a deep breath, steadying herself before she began to read her grandfather’s words.

“My dear Sophia,” she whispered to herself, her voice barely audible in the quiet of the room.

With each word, Sophia felt a surge of emotion welling up inside her. Her grandfather’s words felt like a guiding light, illuminating a path that she had longed to follow but had been hesitant to embrace fully.

“If you keep this journal, then you have solved all my riddles. You managed to do something dangerous, and I’m sure you did it because the situation called for it. With this, I wanted to prove something to you that I never want you to doubt. You are smart and brave, and you are willing to take risks for the right price.

There is nothing more valuable in this world than taking a risk if you know it is for a good cause. Exactly what I did for your grandmother. I did something illegal to save her. I want you to always fight for the truth, for justice, even if sometimes it costs you something. That’s why I’m sure you’re a great lawyer.

Now let me tell you the end of my story. There are things here for your father. Things that will not be easy for you to hear. Please prepare yourself and open your heart.

Fight for what you’re worth.

Fight on, my brave child.

With all my love,

Your grandfather, Christopher”

Sophia read her grandfather’s words, feeling a mix of emotions swirling within her. She whispered to herself as she absorbed each line, her heart heavy with the weight of his revelations.

“He believed in me,” she murmured, her voice barely above a whisper. “He saw something in me that I never knew was there.”

Tears welled up in her eyes as she continued to read, the gravity of her grandfather’s words sinking in deeper with each passing moment. She felt a sense of pride swell within her chest, mingled with sadness for the sacrifices he had made for her family.

“He did something illegal… for Grandma,” Sophia muttered, her mind racing with questions. “What is he trying to tell me about Dad?”

As she read on, Sophia’s determination grew stronger. She knew she had to uncover the truth, no matter how difficult it might be to face. With her grandfather’s words echoing in her mind, she steeled herself for the challenges ahead.

“I’ll fight,” she vowed, her voice filled with resolve. “For him, for Grandma, for Dad, for justice, for the love of my life. For Alexander! ”

With renewed determination, Sophia turned the page, ready to confront whatever revelations lay ahead in her grandfather’s diary. Sophia’s eyes widened and she realized that she would not be able to sleep tonight.
