Alexis forcefully pushed him aside.
Lifting her gaze, her eyes met his with a cold and distant expression.
Leonelâs heart was pierced with an indescribable pain, and his voice was rough and unsteady.
âLetâs set everything else aside for now, Alexis.
We can talk about that later, but now, I need to take you to the hospital.
â
âWhat other things do we have to talk about?â
Alexisâs laughter was cold and scornful.
Rising gradually, she moved past him towards the door.
While passing each other, Leonel extended his hand, but she brushed it off Swiftly reaching the door, she suddenly collapsed.
âAlexis!
Alexis!â

In the hospital, late into the night, Alexis received a diagnosis of a mild concussion, necessitating an overnight stay for observation.
Having settled the fees, Leonel returned to her room.
Alexis was awake, elevated in bed, gazing into the night through the window, lost in contemplation.
âDo you feel hungry? I can fetch some food.
â
Without meeting his gaze, she responded softly, âGo back home.
My assistant will come to stay with me.
â
Leonel departed silently.
However, after half an hour, he returned, bearing a box of her preferred rice noodles.
âTry having something to eat.
â
He organized the rice noodles and presented them to Alexis.
âIf you canât manage, Iâll assist you.
â
Alexis swayed her hand, causing the food to scatter across the floor in disarray.
In a steady voice, Alexis uttered, âPlease go.
I canât bear to see you.
Iâll repay your $2Q@ billion within a week.
Leonel, you donât owe me anything;
youâve simply pursued your desires.
Henceforth, our paths separate.
â
Leonel swallowed hard.
Nonetheless, he persisted.
âIf you feel hungry later, Iâll bring more.
â
He meticulously cleaned the floor and then poured water for Alexis.
Unable to convince him to depart and feeling truly unwell, Alexis lay down, disregarding his presence.
She wouldnât have to face him again in the morning.
