Chapter 3490
Suddenly, she caught a whiff of perfume on him. Even though she rarely wore any, Alexis recognized the scent from a perfume counter.
She knew it was popular among young girls.
Leonel could tell from her expression what she was thinking.
He shrugged. I mustve picked it up in the private room. There were lots of people there, including Edwin and Laura. Ask James if you dont believe me.
Alexis didnt push it. No need. I trust you, she said lightly.
Seeing her indifferent face, Leonel chuckled to himself. Cant tell if you actually believe me or just dont care, he mumbled.
Alexis didnt want to argue, especially not in the middle of the night.
Softly, she suggested, Since we both have work tomorrow, why not hit the hay after a shower? Hearing this, Leonel felt a twinge of irritation and started unbuttoning his shirt in front of her. But then, he froze.
The TV was playing an old episode featuring Calvin, looking young and lively on the screen.
Leonel tensed up.
After a long pause, he glanced at Alexis, who sat quietly on the couch. NôvelDrama.Org holds text © rights.
She seemed composed but her eyes glistened with tears It was clear she was mourning Calvin.
As her husband, Leonel couldnt bear it. He abandoned what he was doing, walked behind the sofa, and whispered in her ear, Dont forget that you are my wife, Alexis! Gazing at the screen, Alexis replied softly, I could never forget, even for amoment.
She knew Leonels ways of dealing with things. Since she found out about Calvins death, she never brought up divorce, leaving the decision to Leonel. If he grew tired of the marriage and wished to be free, he would eventually seek a divorce.
But three years had passed and nothing changed. Instead, Leonels jealousy flared up.
After speaking, Alexis turned away.
Leonel watched her for a moment before heading to the bathroom.
Soon, he emerged from the bathroom in pajamas.
Late into the night, Alexis shut off the TV, ready to hit the hay.
Suddenly, Leonels phone chimed For no reason, his heart skipped a beat.
He feared it might be the woman from the clubTo his relief though, it was a call from the Fowler Mansion.
