“I don’t want any part of it,” Alexis responded casually.
She continued in a light tone, “Darwin, it’s not just Serenity who caused your mother’s death, but your own actions as well.”
By giving Serenity a chance in the first place, Darwin also played a role in Diana’s demise.
Alexis, devoid of sentimentality, added gently, “I’m sorry, but Darwin, you need to move forward.
With that, she headed toward the exit.
Darwin murmured behind her, “I’ll never be as ruthless as you and Leonel. And that’s why you don’t fancy me, right?”

Alexis stood motionless, offering no reply.
As she prepared to depart, Darwin’s voice elevated, declaring, “Alexis, I have feelings for you.”
But Alexis had already departed.
She had tasks to attend to, but her current state of mind was not conducive. Once in the car, she called her secretary, instructing them to cancel her schedule.
After ending the call, Alexis reclined in her seat, deep in contemplation.

In the evening, with Leonel busy in the kitchen, Alexis entered and embraced him from behind, resting her face against his back.
Leonel shifted his head slightly, questioning softly, “What’s troubling you?”
After a moment of silence, Alexis murmured, “I met Darwin today. He revealed that he was responsible for breaking Serenity’s legs, resulting in her having a miscarriage.”
Leonel tensed imperceptibly, maintaining silence.
Alexis looked up at him, attempting to gauge his thoughts. With a subtle smile, she chose not to make any further remarks.
Alexis retreated to the living room to watch TV, leaving Leonel to do his cooking.
The rhythmic chopping of vegetables echoed from the kitchen, while the antics of Tom and Jerry unfolded on the TV. The grimness and discomfort Alexis experienced after encountering Darwin appeared to slowly dissipate.
Determined to maintain a positive mood, she resolved to push those thoughts aside.
As night fell, Leonel found himself compelled to work overtime. After a shower, he headed to the study.
