Alexis sighed and got out of the car.
She grabbed Calvin’s hand, stopping him.
“Stop smashing it!”
Leonel watched her, noticing she was holding the man’s hand.
Alexis wrote a check and threw it on the car’s hood.
Angela’s Library
“This is for you!” she said.
Leonel remained still, watching her. He had asked her earlier in the car if she liked this young boy. Now, he thought he just got his answer.
Alexis clearly had feelings for him.
Leonel sneered.
“You like this type?”
Alexis crossed her arms.
“Yes, at least he’s devoted to me,” she retorted.
Leonel’s stare was intense.
After a moment, he tore the check into pieces and turned to open the car door.
“Alexis, are you coming home with me?” he asked.
Alexis gestured for him to leave, gracefully.
Leonel’s face turned ashen, but he eventually drove away in the damaged car.
Alexis stood quietly for a while.
When the night breeze chilled her, she turned to the person beside her.
“Let’s go. I’ll take you back,” she said.
Calvin clasped her hand.
“Is he the reason you won’t be with me for real?” he asked.
Alexis simply smiled faintly, not answering. She took the car keys from his pocket, found his sports car, and got in.
“Aren’t you coming?” she asked.
