Female NovelChapter 2409 Alexis and Leonel stared at each other under the light.
Neither of them was willing to yield, both resolute in their convictions. Their gaze remained locked for so long that Alexis began to feel a slight soreness in her eyes.
In a hushed and raspy tone, she uttered, “This is pointless.Contents belong to NovelDrama.Org
Leonel, we've moved on with our lives. Eight years have gone by, and I'm not the same person from before. In fact, I realize that I don't know you all that much either. We've only had sex on two occasions because we were tensed. What else exists between us beyond that? If you insist on talking about feelings, it was all gone a long time ago.” Alexis made a casual gesture with her hand.
“You should go back now.
I've been occupied with a case lately, and I'm quite exhausted. I'IL also need to prepare myself to help Edwin. Mr. Douglas, I really don't have the energy to engage in a love game with you.” Leonel still didn't move.

“You wouldn't understand the feeling of waiting for someone to come back. Leonel, the more I hold onto hope, the deeper the disappointment will cut. I don’t want to endure that suffering ever again.” Leonel’s heart trembled.

She had turned away from him, her back facing him.
She spoke with a light yet firm tone.
“Please, don't pester me any further, or I'm uncertain about how I might react. It's in your best interest not to push me.” “I'm still affecting you, aren't I?” he asked in a hoarse voice.
