Sold To An Alpha - Chapter 192
The next day arrived in the blink of an eye, and currently, it was noon.
Leia, who was clad in white joggers and white trainers, neatly combed her short hair and brushed it back with her hands.
She grabbed the car keys from the table and walked out of the room to make her way to the elevator. The elevator took her down to the first floor, and she stepped out when the door pushed open.
“Good morning, Luna.” The maids bowed respectfully to her, and she nodded at them with a half-smile on her lips.
She strolled out of the mansion and drew her head back in surprise on seeing Alex standing beside the car. “Hey.” She walked towards him and punched him on the shoulder. “You appear and disappear. Why are you here today? I thought you left with Adrik.”
Alex chuckled softly and bowed deeply to her in respect. “I would have gone with Supreme Alpha, but he asked me to stay back and look after you.”
“Why? I can take care of myself.” Leia’s brow was raised in a bit of disapproval, and Alex shrugged with a half-smile on his lips. He pulled the door of the Lamborghini open and turned to face her. “May I know where you want to go today?”
“Victor’s apartment.” She proceeded to step into the car, but suddenly halted and turned to gaze at him with an arched brow. “Where did you get the key?”
“I have the spare keys to all the cars.” Alex cackled awkwardly, and she nodded at him before stepping into the car. He shut the door and moved to take his seat in the driver’s chair. He inserted the key and turned it to the ignition point, activating the car’s engine.
Slowly but steady, he drove out of the compound and pulled over onto the road, then sped off down the road.
“Hmmm… lots of cars on the road today.” Leia abruptly said as her eyes gazed out of the car window.
“What do you mean?” Alex inquired, a bit confused.
“Well, the road is usually scanty, with not many cars on the road, but today, it’s kind of different. It’s as though everyone is suddenly traveling, and for that reason, there are lots of cars on the road. Also, I don’t doubt there is going to be a traffic jam at some point.” She explained, her eyes still fixed on the road.
“Mhmm.” Alex nodded in agreement and slowed down a bit after a few minutes, as he reached for the slow vehicle in front of them.
“I knew it!” Leia exclaimed, in a bit of annoyance, and a deep breath left her nose. “I hate being in a traffic jam so much!!” She pouted, with a bit of anger evident in her eyes.
“Sorry.” Alex chuckled softly and fixed his gaze on the road ahead of them.
Leia slightly shook her head and, as though something had caught her attention, she turned her head and her gaze fell on a man in a Ferrari car a bit far from theirs, clad in a black suit. What was more suspicious was the fact that the moment she glanced at him, he turned to stare at her and a grin crept up his lips.
Leia’s eyes fluttered in confusion and she averted her gaze, hoping the man would stop looking at her. However, she still felt his intent gaze on her. ‘What the fuck!’ She blurted within her and turned to stare at the man who looked a bit bulky with messed-up hair. Her brows creased deeply and she glared at him, hoping he would avert his gaze. However, the man smirked at her and slightly shook his head.
“Alex, whine up the glasses.” She turned to Alex, and Alex swerved his head to glance at her. “Huh? I thought you wanted it open.”
“Just whine up the glasses!” She glared at him with an irritated look on her face, and Alex nodded before turning back and whining up the glasses.
A low breath left Leia’s nose and she turned her head only for her face to alter into a bizarre expression on seeing the man still gazing at her with a smirk on his lips, even though she had whined up the glasses.
Out of a bit of annoyance, she gave him a middle finger with a deep scowl on her face, then averted her stare and folded her arms with a grim expression on her face.
Slowly, Alex drove off, as the traffic cleared, and a subtle breath escaped Leia’s nose. “Creeps!” She scoffed in displeasure and had Alex whine the glasses down.
Alex’s eyes blinked in bewilderment, and he whined the glasses down, then turned the steering wheel to pull over onto another road.
As though noticing something, Leia’s brows crumpled deeply, and she glanced at the side mirror of the car. Her face darkened when she saw three black Ferrari cars trailing behind them at a steady speed.
“Are they following us?” Leia inquired in a tone that held a bit of confusion.
“Huh?” Alex turned his head to gaze at her and Leia raised her brows in bewilderment. “I think we are being followed, and not just by one car, but three.”
“What do you mean?” Alex’s brows crinkled, and he glanced at the side mirror, only for his face to turn ashen. “What the hell!” He turned to Leia and glanced at the seatbelt. “Buckle up.”
Leia nodded and pulled the seat belt across her and locked it.
Alex’s face darkened deeply, and a deep breath fled from his nose.
He grabbed the accelerator and pushed it down slowly, then used his right foot to press the gas pedal, which gave speed to the car, causing them to drive off at a high speed and creating quite a distance from the Ferrari’s.
The men driving the Ferrari’s narrowed their eyes, and just like Alex did, they raised the speed of their cars and sped off, catching up to the Lamborghini.
Leis’ eyes fluttered vigorously as Alex slowed a bit down, and she glanced at the side mirror only to see the cars catching up to them again.. “Alex, they are catching up to us.”
