A Second Chance With My Billionaire Love

She loathed him and that woman Anika.

Following her gaze, Leonel noticed the bruises too. Anxious, he stammered, I promise it wont happen again! I was totally wasted last night.

Alexis looked away, mustering a faint smile.

So, being drunk was his free pass to cheat and even assault her? If that were the case, anyone could justify their mistakes.

She was done with him and their marriage. After a pause, she said calmly, Its best we part ways nicely. Ill send the divorce papers to your office. We can keep it low-key to avoid affecting the companys stocks.

Why continue this torment, she wondered, when they could simply be decisive? Alexis hadnt confided her divorce intentions to her parents, hoping Leonel would come to his senses first. Perhaps, once his anger cooled, hed realize that letting go of his obsession would actually bring him closure.

Alexis didnt head straight home.

Instead, she ventured downtown and settled into an Italian restaurant for a solitary meal.

Returning home after her meal, she found Leonel absent.
