Sophia’s POV

The next morning began with the smell of freshly brewed coffee and the sound of rain tapping gently against the windows. I didn’t open my eyes at first—just listened. The rhythmic pattern of the rain was oddly comforting, like the world had slowed just enough to let us catch our breath.

Alex was already out of bed. I could hear him humming faintly from downstairs, his voice drifting up in fragments between the clinking of mugs and the soft shuffle of footsteps. A smile tugged at the corners of my mouth.

I sat up slowly, one hand cradling my belly as I swung my legs over the side of the bed. The weight of the baby had become more present now, a steady, grounding pressure that reminded me I wasn’t alone—not even for a second.

In the mirror, I looked different again. A little rounder. A little softer. But also… stronger. Like each day that passed gave me more certainty, more steadiness beneath my skin.

By the time I made it downstairs, Alex had already set two plates of warm

  • After Divorce, I became the CEO of my Ex-Husband's Company    Chapter 182

    Alex’s POVThe morning sun barely filtered through the curtains when I woke up. It was still early, too early to be up, but I could feel Sophia shifting beside me, her warmth radiating through the thin sheets. I didn’t open my eyes right away. I simply listened—listened to the rhythm of her breathing, the gentle sound of rain tapping on the windows, the faint hum of the city coming to life outside.She was still asleep, but I couldn’t shake the feeling that something had shifted in the air. A sense of calm had settled over us, one that felt fragile, like it could break if we weren’t careful. The weight of the upcoming event—the charity gala that Sophia had agreed to attend the next evening—hung over us. It wasn’t about the gala itself. It was everything else.Lina had been adjusting to the idea of a new baby, and I could feel the change in the way she looked at Sophia, the way she touched her belly as if it were a precious thing. That part of it felt right. But the question of Nathan

  • After Divorce, I became the CEO of my Ex-Husband's Company    Chapter 181

    Sophia’s POVThe sun was just beginning to break through the clouds when I woke the next morning, the rain finally gone. Pale golden light slipped through the curtains, casting soft lines across the sheets. For a moment, I simply lay there and listened—not to rain this time, but to the stillness of the house. It was early and quiet.Alex was still asleep beside me, one arm draped loosely over my waist, his breathing deep and even. I turned slightly, careful not to wake him, and pressed a gentle kiss to his shoulder. The baby kicked in response, a tiny flutter like a secret being passed just between the two of us.I smiled.Eventually, I slipped out of bed and padded downstairs, deciding to enjoy the silence while I could. Mornings like this felt rare—unrushed, uncomplicated. I made tea and curled up on the couch with a blanket draped over my lap, watching the light grow stronger with each passing minute.Lina came down a little later, still sleepy-eyed, her bunny plush tucked under on

  • After Divorce, I became the CEO of my Ex-Husband's Company    Chapter 179

    Sophia’s POVI woke the next morning before the sun had fully risen, stirred by the faint movement of the baby pressing against my ribs. The house was still—no birds yet, no traffic, just the faint creak of the floorboards beneath me as I made my way to the kitchen. I didn’t bother turning on any lights. The early dawn gave just enough glow to see by, and I liked it this way—muted, calm, suspended in something soft and in-between.I made tea quietly, careful not to wake Alex or Lina. Even though we’d all gone to bed early the night before, my body didn’t know how to stay still for long anymore. I found myself craving peace more than sleep.The kettle whistled gently. I poured the hot water over the chamomile and let it steep, wrapping my hands around the mug as I stepped outside onto the back porch. The early morning air was crisp and smelled faintly of dew and jasmine. I sat in the same porch swing Lina and I had curled up on yesterday, watching the first strands of light filter thro

  • After Divorce, I became the CEO of my Ex-Husband's Company    Chapter 178

    Sophia’s povThe morning light filtered softly through the sheer curtains, bathing our bedroom in a muted glow. For once, there was no chaos—no court dates, no phone calls from lawyers, no tense silences. Just the sound of the world waking up beyond our window and the quiet rise and fall of Alex’s breath beside me.I turned gently on my side, watching him sleep. His face was relaxed, the usual weight he carried on his shoulders seemingly lifted, even if just temporarily. His arm was draped protectively around me, his hand resting just under the curve of my belly. I covered his hand with mine and stayed like that for a while, savoring the stillness.I don’t remember the last time I felt so… calm.Eventually, I slid out of bed as carefully as I could and padded toward the bathroom. The weight of the baby had grown heavier, the little kicks stronger—tiny, undeniable reminders that life was moving forward. I stood in front of the mirror and stared at my reflection: swollen belly, tired ey

  • After Divorce, I became the CEO of my Ex-Husband's Company    Chapter 177

    Sophia’s pov The month had passed since I had an encounter with Nathan. Alex said we need a break from all the madness. We needed to take it slow, especially with my second child on the way. I was still very afraid, I did not want the child to be Nathan’s and I also knew Alex felt the same way but he tries to hide it in a more subtle way. I know he would love the child like his, like he does to Lina. Lina is excited about having a sibling and with all the back and forth, we were not able to ask for the sex of the child. Alex and I had decided to live it up to faith. The child was coming in a few weeks time and everything was being done to make sure we were prepared. The baby’s room was decorated with neutral color, clothes bought and everything was neutral—nude. “Janet, how long is the crib coming together?” I asked as I saw the empty space. “Hmm, ma, the crib is not yet here, ma.”“what? How? I paid for that crib for a while now.” I said to her, shocked about the delay. “I call
