Chapter 2540: Chapter 2540

“Are you here to mock me?”

Serenity sneered.

“You must be pleased now, Leonel.

And Alexis must be relieved, right? Now I’m damaged goods and won’t bother you anymore, right?”

Leonel responded calmly, “This has nothing to do with Alexis.

”

With tears streaming down her face, Serenity looked up.

“Why didn’t that monster r@pe her instead?”

Leonel remained silent.

He believed that if Alexis had been the target, she would have fiercely defended herself.

Alexis was strong and would never have let herself be victimized like that.

Moreover, Alexis would never have allowed Kenneth into her home.

But Leonel said nothing.

Serenity looked at him coldly.

“I’ll push for a public trial, Leonel.

You won’t escape this scandal.

I will make sure you’re ruined just as I am,” she declared.

In response, Leonel brought out a checkbook from his pocket.

He wrote a check for 5Q@ million dollars and gently placed it at Serenity’s bedside.

He said in a low voice, “I understand the gravity of what you’ve lost and I’m sorry it happened to you.

I won’t defend my father.

He can seek legal aid himself.

”

Serenity looked at the check and asked, “Is this a settlement?

Is this the value you place on my ordeal?”

She tore the check to pieces.

Leonel watched her in silence.

His face was unreadable.

After a pause, he addressed her, “Serenity, our time together was brief.

I felt uncertain about lots of things in my life when I first went to Acoiclya.

I initially believed someone like you would be right for me.

when I realized I had no feelings for you, I decided it was important to be honest with you about it.

And I was.

Afterwards, you and Darwin got married.

I viewed our past encounters as trivial and maintained friendly relations with both of you.

In my mind, there was no romantic involvement between us, and I believed I hadn’t wronged Darwin in any way.

But when you discovered my relationship with Alexis, you came here to reveal yourself to her.

Your decision to divorce Darwin and to pursue me are choices you’ve made on your own.

I cannot be held accountable for your actions.

”

Leonel expressed himself bluntly as he looked at Serenity.

“You truly are a bastard, Leonel.

”

Feeling a mix of shame and anger, Serenity threw a pillow at Leonel who caught it effortlessly.

Leonel waited for her to regain her composure.
