She followed him to the dining area.
A lavish meal awaited her. There was a spread of various delightful dishes. Just the sight of the food made her stomach rumble.
As Alexis took her seat, she casually commented, “You could make a great housekeeper.”
Leonel looked at her.
“I’m up for it, if that’s what you want.”
Alexis glanced at him with a subtle smile as she began to eat.
Midway through her meal, she casually asked, “Your belongings are still here. When do you plan to take them?”
Before she could finish talking, he served her some food.
“Eat first!” Leonel urged.
Raising an eyebrow, Alexis asked, “So, you’re not planning to move out anymore?”

She received no response from Leonel so she mumbled to herself, “It’s actually nice having you come by to cook now and then. You’re quite a chef!”
“You want me around just because of my culinary skills? I thought I pleased you even more in the bedroom.”
Alexis nearly choked. She shot him a sharp look.
“Keep it down!
Don’t be so shameless!”

Leonel looked at her with deep affection.
“I just want to express these feelings to you. Isn’t it normal for people in love to speak this way to each other?”
Poking around in her plate with her fork, Alexis responded, “Nobody is your lover here. Hey, could you pass me the sauce, please?”
He handed it to her without hesitation.
Alexis grumbled under her breath as she ate.
“You ought to be at my service. After all, I was the one who brought you into my home and cared for you when you were young.”
Leonel looked at her with a soft, tender gaze.
Not sure what to say next, Alexis simply concentrated on her meal.
He tidied up after their meal and put on his coat, signaling his intention to leave.
