Ditching Me for His 'Soulmate'? His Loss. Next Stop: My New Life novel Chapter 30

Chapter 5

Alexander arrived with his bodyguards in a hurry.

It was a bar.

As soon as he arrived, the group of girls sitting around Sophie suddenly became boisterous. They looked at Sophie teasingly.

“He came, he really came! I told you Alexander definitely loves you to the bone. You were just complaining to us that his attitude toward you has changed lately. I say you’re just showing off your love!”

“Since Alexander came, the dare is successful. You can skip that drink.”

“Alexander, come sit down. Tonight is Sophie’s bachelorette party. Congratulations on passing the future husband test!”

Alexander gradually understood and looked at Sophie.

“Test?”

“Sophie, you were lying to me?”

Seeing Alexander’s expression change, Sophie hurried forward to take his arm. She

explained gently.

“I was just too afraid of losing you. You’ve been spacing out lately, saying you’re

remembering things from the past.”

“I was so scared. I just wanted to see if you still cared about me like before. Don’t worry though, I’m safe. The girls helped me send that text, and I had the bartender do that male

voice.”

“Thank goodness you still love me.”

After speaking, Sophie moved to nestle in Alexander’s arms.

But when her fingertips touched him, they felt warm and sticky.

“This is… blood?”

“You’re hurt!”

Alexander’s face was very pale, even his voice was trembling.

“This isn’t my blood.”

“It’s Victoria’s.”

After saying that, he pushed Sophie away from his arms and rushed outside.

Leaving Sophie standing there, staring at the crimson on her fingertips.

When Alexander arrived at Victoria’s house, dawn was breaking. The room was empty,

with only a few bodyguards remaining.

“Where is she?”

The bodyguard pointed to the large pool of blood by the coffee table and explained.

“She kept vomiting blood. We were afraid someone might die, so we sent her to the

hospital.”

“The guy who went with her said she should be fine, just that her condition got worse. The hospital arranged a private jet and already sent her abroad for treatment.”

Alexander was completely stunned.

White pills were crushed and scattered on the floor. Dark red bloodstains had splattered

across the ground.

It was easy to imagine how much pain she had been in.

He looked up and suddenly noticed something shocking.

Hanging in the center of the living room was actually a photo of him and Victoria.

Wearing school uniforms, standing side by side innocently. Alexander gently held Victoria in his arms while she looked at the camera and he looked at her.

Buzz!

The sealed memories in his mind were awakened again.

Alexander walked deeper into the house by muscle memory. Almost everywhere held strange fragments from his mind. The study where they did homework together, the kitchen where he cooked for her, the balcony where they watched stars together.

Until he saw the wedding dress hanging alone in the walk–in closet.

Flowing with light and dazzling beauty.

It was the dress Alexander had once drawn for Victoria bit by bit on white paper,

custom–made.

In his memory, Victoria wore this white gown, holding flowers as she married him.

“Mr. Alexander Whitmore, do you take Miss Victoria Carter as your wife? Whether rich or

poor, in sickness and in health, will you love her and cherish her forever?”

“I do.”

The scenes were clearly unfamiliar, but the overwhelming happiness in his mind couldn’t

be fake.

He must have loved her deeply then.

Chapter 5

Alexander was mysteriously drawn to think of the bridal suite on the third floor of the

estate. He floored the accelerator and hurried up the estate steps. As if going up there would provide all the answers.

His waist was suddenly embraced from behind.

Sophie buried her face in Alexander’s back, her voice choked.

“Don’t go.”

“River, I’m begging you. Please don’t go, okay?”
