Female NovelChapter 2413 “That's new. Weren't you and Edwin so close in the past? Didn't you go abroad to study together? And now, you want to assist him, but you're negotiating terms with me? Leonel, know this.
Edwin will never betray me. Just give up.” Leonel fixed his gaze on her and uttered, “Alexis, you know me all too well.” There was something Leonel didn’t mention to Alexis.
After he had sent her that letter that year and after they split up, he later got a girlfriend.
During that period, Edwin had engaged in a heated dispute with Leonel.
ANGELA'sLIBRARY Since then, their interactions had been minimal. In fact, among the younger generation of the Evans family and the Fowler family, Edwin harbored the strongest aversion towards Leonel.
Despite his feelings, Edwin didn’t display any animosity on his face and maintained a polite demeanor when interacting with Leonel.
Alexis’ concern for Edwin made Leonel refrain from broaching the subject.
Alexis wasn't in the mood for an argument. She rose from her seat and stated, “Our discussion is concluded, Mr. Douglas. Please leave.” Leonel’s gaze remained inscrutable, his eyes deep and enigmatic.
He whispered.

“I'm sorry, Mr. Douglas. I have an appointment.” Leonel didn't force her.
Alexis summoned her assistant to escort Leonel out. Once he had departed, she took the check, contacted the accountant to document it, and subsequently sent the money to Edwin.
Alexis did it not only for Edwin, but also for her aunt Cecilia.
Cecilia had endured significant hardships during that period.
Alexis liked Cecilia and she wanted to do something.
She didn't feel tired until she finished her work.
Perhaps she had been overly occupied lately, which had left her feeling quite tense. She contemplated on drinking alone tonight to unwind.
In a bar that night, though Alexis donned a business suit, her striking appearance and demeanor made it inevitable that many would attempt to approach her.
She didn't make advances towards others.
