Chapter 497 How Much Do You Like
Sophia immediately turned around, unexpectedly crashing into Alexander's cold eyes.
The once affectionate eyes no longer held their usual roguishness, only depth and indifference. The indifference made Sophia feel very unfamiliar.
She faintly curved her lips, "No, I just purely don't want to be alone with you."
Alexander looked at her bright eyes, letting out a low laugh from his throat.
"Do you hate me for forgetting you?"
Sophia glanced at him, "I just don't want to be accused of being entangled with you. I have that much self-awareness."
After saying that, she opened the car door and got in, then said to the driver, "Drive."
The driver glanced at Alexander's cold eyes, ultimately not daring to step on the gas.
Alexander pulled open the back door and sat next to Sophia.
His voice was very faint, but it carried a full sense of indifference, "Drive."
Facing this Alexander, Sophia felt very unfamiliar.
Whether it was his eyes or his behavior, she couldn't find a trace of the Alexander she knew.
Even if she wanted to talk to him, it seemed she couldn't find a topic.
Sophia couldn't help but mock herself in her heart.
No wonder Daisy said that although she couldn't get Alexander, she still won.
Indeed, she won.
And she could only watch Alexander's indifference towards her, carefully burying her own feelings deep inside.
This kind of pain might only be understood by those who have experienced it.
Recalling these things, a bitter smile appeared at the corner of Sophia's lips.
She looked out the window, trying not to have any contact with Alexander.
Just as she was immersed in the night view outside the window, Alexander's low, hoarse voice suddenly came to her ears.
"Is the night view that beautiful?"
Sophia didn't even turn her head, directly replying, "It's definitely better looking than you."
Alexander chuckled, "You haven't even looked, how do you know?"
"Do I need to look? I can tell how many hairs are in your nostrils with my eyes closed."
Hearing this, Alexander couldn't help but laugh, "You even remember how many hairs are in my nostrils, you must have really liked me before."
Sophia angrily turned her head, glaring coldly at Alexander, "I like you, my ass! There are plenty of men in the world, the sun will still rise without you."
Sophia spoke through gritted teeth.
This bastard forgot about her, and he still dared to tease her.
Alexander looked at her lazily, responding faintly, "On cloudy days, the sun doesn't rise."
"Alexander, did you come along just to piss me off?"
Alexander raised an eyebrow, "No, I heard from Sebastian that I used to call you Firecracker, probably because you have a bad temper and get angry easily. I was just testing if the nickname Firecracker still suits you."
Sophia gritted her teeth, "Whether it suits me or not is none of your business. Please shut your mouth, you're annoying."
After saying that, she took out her headphones from her bag and put them on, trying to block Alexander's harassment with music.
At this moment, the car suddenly swayed.
Sophia's body uncontrollably lunged towards Alexander.
Following a sudden brake, a strong inertia forced Sophia's body to lunge forward.
Alexander quickly grabbed Sophia tightly in his arms, preventing her from being thrown forward.
Sophia screamed in fright, instinctively wrapping her arms around Alexander's waist.
Her cheek was tightly pressed against Alexander's abs, breathing heavily.
The warm breath was like a weak electric current, quickly spreading throughout Alexander's body from his abdomen.
This tingling sensation made him involuntarily stroke Sophia's head.
His voice was low and full of comfort, "It's okay, someone just crossed the road."
Hearing this familiar voice, Sophia was momentarily stunned.
It felt like she was back to the time before Alexander lost his memory.
Every time they encountered danger, Alexander would comfort her like this, instantly making her feel at ease.
Smelling his familiar scent and feeling his breath, many past scenes with Alexander flashed through her mind.
She couldn't help but tighten her arms around Alexander.
Just as Sophia was lost in her thoughts, Alexander's low, hoarse voice suddenly came to her ears, "Haven't hugged enough?"
This voice instantly shattered all of Sophia's memories.
She immediately broke free from Alexander's embrace and sat back in her seat.
Just as she looked out the window again, a shadow appeared in front of her.
Alexander's handsome face leaned towards her, and Sophia's eyes widened instantly.
Just as their faces were about to touch, she reached out and blocked Alexander's face.
She asked coldly, "What do you want?"
Alexander chuckled, his warm breath all spraying into Sophia's palm.
His voice vibrated in her hand, "Helping you with your seatbelt."
As soon as he finished speaking, Sophia heard a click.
Sophia immediately moved her hand away, "I can do it myself."
"If you can, why didn't you do it earlier?"
"Wasn't it because you pissed me off? If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have fallen."
Alexander's lips curved into a meaningful smile, "Fine, it's all my fault. I shouldn't have caught you earlier, let you suffer a bit, and see if you remember to buckle up next time."
"I never had the habit of buckling up in the back seat, and nothing happened for so many years. How come something happened as soon as I was with you? That only proves one thing, you affected me."
Hearing this, the driver in the front couldn't help but say, "Ms. Sinclair, I'm sorry, my old eyes didn't see that person clearly just now."
Sophia restrained her anger, responding faintly, "It's okay."
The car unknowingly arrived at Sophia's small apartment.
She immediately got out of the car, said 'thank you' to the driver, and turned to go upstairs.
At this moment, a familiar voice came to her ears, "Sophia."
Sophia looked in the direction of the voice.
She saw Manuel leaning against the car, smoking.
She immediately walked over and asked, "Why are you here?"
Manuel looked at her with deep eyes, his voice gentle, "I came to see if you were okay."
Sophia shook her head, "I'm fine. I heard from Betsy that someone tried to cause trouble at the party earlier, and you helped her out. Are you hurt?"
"A small injury, it's nothing."
Sophia lowered her eyes and immediately saw a wound on Manuel's arm, with blood still oozing out.
She immediately said, "It's already cut, and you say it's nothing. I have medicine at home, I'll help you bandage it."
Manuel hesitated, "It's so late, won't it be a bother?"
"Bother what? You got hurt helping me, it's only right that I take care of you."
After saying that, she took Manuel upstairs.
Watching their backs, Alexander, who had been sitting in the car, couldn't help but clench his fingers.
He immediately got out of the car, leaned against it, lit a cigarette, and stared intently at Sophia's apartment window.
