Female NovelChapter 2485 After spending years in an open country like Acoiclya, he hadn't considered his short-lived relationship with Serenity to be significant until Alexis brought up the photo frame, jolting him into the realization that she couldn't tolerate it.
His instinct was to hide it.
However, Serenity’s unexpected visit to his apartment took not only Alexis but also him by surprise.
Toward the end of the workday, his phone rang.
It was Waylen.
Leonel responded, “Mr. Fowler!” Waylen's tone carried a slight strain. “Leonel, come home.” Leonel, examining the check, surmised the reason and nodded. “Alright, I'll come immediately.” Thirty minutes later, Leonel parked his car in front of the villa.Contents belong to NovelDrama.Org
The house was strangely quiet, with no servants in view. Waylen sat in the living room, evidently awaiting him.
Angela's Library Leonel entered and respectfully called out, “Mr. Fowler.” Waylen regarded him in silence.
After a pause, he said in a gentle tone, “Leonel, you've all grown up. Rena and I have talked about it, and it's time for you to stand on your own.
Marcus will inherit the Fowler Group, Alexis has joined Sterling Law Firm, and Elva is under Rena'’s care. As for you, I'm considering giving Exceed Group to you. Henceforth, you'll chart your own path.” Leonel was briefly surprised.
The prospect of receiving Exceed Group and gaining independence, it seemed like a shift in familial responsibilities, but, in reality, he knew Waylen was allowing him to depart.
Leonel understood that the primary reason for this decision was Alexis.
Waylen must have become aware of their situation, not directly from Alexis, but he always had means of discovering information.
Leonel didn't desire to depart.
He had little regard for Exceed Group; without the Fowler family and all those he cared about, what purpose did all that wealth serve? He appealed softly, “Mr. Fowler, I don't wish to depart from the family.” He had grown up in the Fowler residence and was well-acquainted with the family rules.
Placing his briefcase aside and shedding his coat, he kneeled in the study.
Waylen scoffed. “Why are you kneeling? You were bold enough when you struck your sister. Leonel, despite everything, you grew up together and Alexis is like your sister. I would venture to say that even Rena and I combined haven't treated you as well as she has. Yet you hit her, resulting in a concussion! Who in this house would dare harm her like that? Have you considered that?"
