There was a small glint in his eyes, mirrored in Alexis’ gaze.
They all stayed silent until Vanessa couldn’t take it anymore. “Alexis! What do you think you’re doing? We were in the middle of signing an important contract!”
Alexis paid no mind to her.
She let go of Leonel’s hand and tossed the contract back onto the desk.
Leonel’s heart raced rapidly.
His hands slightly trembled. “Alexis… are you certain?”
Alexis raised her head a bit. “You bastard, you should be happy. You’ve won!”
She said that and walked out of the room.

Leonel stared at them calmly. “I grew up in the Fowler family. You really shouldn’t put that much trust on me.”
With that, he walked out.

She curled up in the passenger seat and got lost in her thoughts.
Leonel was happy, but he was still being careful.
He got into the car and gently patted her head. “What’s on your mind?”
Alexis didn’t move away from his touch. “What exactly would you have done if I didn’t show up?”
A few seconds of silence passed. “I would have done whatever you had in mind.”
Alexis was still quiet.
