Ending the call, he headed into the bathroom.
As the hot water cascaded down, his mood darkened slightly.
He thought it was a common feeling among men to be bothered by their girlfriends’ exes. His approach was straightforward: send Calvin abroad for treatment, and be there for Alexis and Evelyn as if Calvin had never existed.
Leonel’s discomfort with Calvin ran deep. He chose not to send Calvin to Braseovell.
It was due to the fact that it was a place filled with memories of Calvin and Alexis’ life together.
ALL these arrangements were Leonel’s doing.
Alexis had no idea about anything. Until now, she believed that Calvin would be in Braseovell, with its better facilities and familiar doctors.
She had hoped to visit Calvin there someday.
Calvin, too, had kept silent on the matter.
Leonel’s jealousy flared at the thought of Calvin’s considerate nature. And he could barely contain his emotions.
The next morning, after getting ready, Leonel entered the main bedroom.
Until now, Alexis and Evelyn were still asleep.
He gently ki*sed each of them on the forehead before leaving. Just as he was about to walk away, Alexis stirred awake.
She still appeared drowsy.
Leonel leaned closer toward her so that she could embrace him.
“Are you about to Leave? Did you have breakfast yet?”

Leonel gazed at Alexis, choosing not to respond to her questions.
Instead, he leaned in, sealing their conversation with a tender ki*s.
Her body relaxed into his embrace, soft and yielding like a cloud.
After a lingering ki*s, Leonel whispered close to her ear, “I’ll be back in five days. Please take good care of Evelyn.”
Alexis, resting against the softness of the white pillow, looked more radiant than ever.
The tenderness in her eyes was impossible for Leonel to resist. He leaned in for another ki*s, murmuring, “I should have been more insistent last night.”
Alexis gently urged him to show restraint.
Leonel responded with a playful smile, lightly biting her lip. “Miss Fowler, there was a time you were wilder than me. You were always eager for more.”
