The evening was calm, with a gentle warmth suffusing the apartment as Sophia and Alexander sat down for dinner. The soft clink of cutlery and the savory aroma of the meal created a comforting atmosphere. Sophia, who had been caught up in a whirlwind of emotions and tasks over the past weeks, seemed to carry a lighter air about her."I found the dress, Alex," she said, a smile spreading across her face as she passed him the salad. "It’s more than just beautiful—it made me feel like a bride."Alexander looked up from his plate, his eyes shining with happiness and a touch of relief. "I can't wait to call you my wife," he replied earnestly. "It’s going to be a beautiful day."Sophia nodded, her smile lingering as she thought about the dress and the upcoming wedding. Then her expression sobered slightly as she shifted the conversation toward a more somber topic. "I've finalized everything with the case too," she continued, her voice steady but carrying a weight. "I want to get it over wit

The courtroom was dense with anticipation as the trial drew to its conclusion. After days of testimonies, cross-examinations, and relentless presentations of evidence, it was finally time for Sophia to make her closing argument. The weight of the moment settled on her shoulders as she stood, papers in hand, facing the jury who held the outcome in their hands."Ladies and gentlemen of the jury," Sophia began, her voice strong and clear, echoing slightly in the hushed room. "Over the past few days, you have been presented with overwhelming evidence that not only places the defendants at the scene of the crime but also directly implicates them in the conspiracy to murder my father."She paced slowly in front of the jury, making eye contact with each member as she spoke. "We have shown you phone records that map a network of calls between the defendants in the days leading up to my father's death. You have seen financial documents that detail unusual payments made by the defendants to kno

Sophia and Alexander bustled around the spacious living room of their cozy home, the air thick with a mix of excitement and nervous energy. Wedding magazines lay scattered across the coffee table, adorned with sticky notes and hastily scrawled reminders."Did you call the florist to confirm the bouquet?" Sophia asked, her voice tinged with a hint of urgency as she glanced at Alexander, who was hunched over his laptop, furiously typing away."Yeah, they said everything's set," Alexander replied, his brow furrowed in concentration as he clicked through various tabs on the screen. "But I still need to finalize the playlist for the reception."Sophia nodded, her mind already racing ahead to the next item on their seemingly endless to-do list. "And what about the seating chart? Did you hear back from Aunt Martha about her dietary restrictions?"Alexander shook his head, his fingers flying across the keyboard as he typed out an email to their caterer. "Not yet, but I'll follow up with her a

The morning of the wedding dawned with a soft glow of anticipation as Evelyn, Sophia's devoted maid of honor, tiptoed into her room. With a mischievous grin, she approached Sophia's bed and gently shook her awake."Rise and shine, Sleeping Beauty!" Evelyn chirped, her voice filled with excitement.Sophia groaned and buried her face in her pillow, momentarily forgetting the significance of the day ahead. "Can't I sleep for just five more minutes?"Evelyn chuckled and shook her head, tugging at the covers until Sophia finally relented and sat up, rubbing the sleep from her eyes."Come on, Sophia, today is the day you become Mrs. Stone!" Evelyn exclaimed, her eyes sparkling with excitement.Sophia's heart fluttered with nerves and excitement as she took in the magnitude of the moment.

As the sun dipped low on the horizon, casting a warm, golden glow over the reception venue, Sophia and Alexander found themselves enveloped in a whirlwind of joy and celebration. The air was alive with the melodious laughter of friends and family, their voices weaving together in a harmonious chorus of love and support. Sophia's heart swelled with gratitude as she looked around the beautifully adorned reception hall. Delicate fairy lights danced among lush floral arrangements, casting an ethereal glow over the festivities. Soft music filled the air, its gentle melodies serving as the perfect backdrop for the evening's enchantment. "Can you believe this, Alexander?" Sophia whispered, her eyes sparkling with wonder.

"A beautiful dream come true." As guests approached to offer their congratulations,

"This is Mr. Stone’s divorce agreement, Mrs. Stone," Alexander Stone’s butler, Charles said as he handed a large manila envelope to Sophia. "Mrs. Stone, you have a three-day window to sign the agreement and vacate the premises." Charles watched Sophia with indifference, his demeanor calm as he spoke. Although Sophia had been anticipating this moment, her heart sank upon the mention of the divorce agreement. She glanced at Charles, accepted the envelope, and extracted the divorce agreement from within. "Ten million dollars of alimony as long as he never lays eyes on me again?" she scoffed, looking straight at Charles, whose expression remained inscrutable. "How can he possibly believe he can get away with such an absurd demand?" She continued reading, "In accordance with the terms of the divorce agreement, it is acknowledged that Sophia Stone has failed to fulfill her marital obligations for a period of three years. As a result, Alexander Stone reserves the right to initiate divo
After the Divorce: Crushed on My Lawyer Ex-wife #2 "Let's See What She Can Do."
Three days had elapsed since Alexander Stone had dispatched Charles to deliver the divorce papers. He paced back and forth within the confines of his opulent corner office, boasting a panoramic view of the city skyline. He was waiting for a consequence. And he was not surprised to get the result he expected. He knew that his soon-to-be ex-wife would sign the papers. He offered a very generous price for this transaction, far higher than what she has paid in this marriage, but of course, she is taking the full three days to finish this sham of a marriage. A soft knock at the door preceded Laura's entrance. Laura, a trusted employee who had taken on the role of Alexander's secretary, held an envelope containing the divorce decree, laying it delicately on the polished surface of his desk. "She signed and has moved out," Laura announced simply, her tone carrying an air of finality. “Of course. She should be.” Alexander replied. "It's about damn time," Emily Williams, a Branch Manager
After the Divorce: Crushed on My Lawyer Ex-wife #3 "The Quicker, The Better."
"Mr. Stone, what can you tell us about your current situation with the Senator's daughter?" A reporter yelled at Alex the moment he stepped out of the courthouse; the blinding sunlight assaulted his dark green eyes. The scene before him was chaotic, with reporters swarming like a hive of bees. Flashing cameras momentarily blinded him, and microphones were thrust into his face, each reporter vying for his attention. Amidst the frenzy, their questions bombarded him like a relentless onslaught. "Is there any truth to you marrying the daughter of a Senator?" one reporter demanded. Another chimed in, "Can you finally reveal the name of your ex-wife?" The questions grew more personal and invasive. "How long have you been having an affair?" and "What can you tell us about the divorce agreement?" echoed through the air. Alexander's patience began to wear thin as he pushed his way through the crowd. He remained silent as he was in no mood to answer any reporter's questions, especially ones
