Leonel nodded, confirming, âYes.
Iâll stay here tonight.
â
Elva took a quick look at Alexis.
Noticing that Alexis seemed calm even under scrutiny, Elva declared, âThen, Iâm off!â
She then dashed away.
Alexis, reclining on her bed, stretched out her long legs.
She nonchalantly browsed through a magazine, commenting, âYou seem different tonight.
â
But Leonel had something else on his mind.
âDoes Elva always stick to you like this?â
Alexis was known for her usual distant demeanor towards others, yet she was always gentle with her sister.
Not only Elva, but Olivia and Laura also enjoyed being close to her.
Leonel couldnât help but feel a hint of envy.
Catching onto his thoughts, Alexis gave a playful smile.
âWhatâs with you today?â
In response, Leonel leaned in for a ki*s.
However, Alexis wasnât keen on getting intimate at home.
She knew that once they got started, theyâd be loud, and no amount of soundproofing could help.
She didnât fancy the idea of being the center of attention the next day.
She gently pushed him away, setting a boundary.
âYou can stay, but letâs keep it appropriate.
â
Leonel, in truth, didnât have any other intentions.
He was simply overjoyed tonight, desiring nothing more than to ki*s and embrace her.
A secret thought crossed his mind, considering his new identity as Waylenâs son, which technically made him Alexisâ brother.
The memory of their passionate nights together brought a strange excitement.
Alexis switched off the light.
They settled into bed together, her fingers Lightly touching his Lips as she whispered, âLet me guess, did things get better between you and dad?â
Leonel gave a light chuckle.
âBetween us, itâs Like making up.
But with dad, it feels more like burying the hatchet, doesnât it?â
âHave we made up, then?â
Trapping her in his embrace, Leonelâs face close to hers, he whispered, âI guess we have.
Otherwise, youâd be mad when seeing those documents, right?â
Alexis couldnât resist nipping his shoulder.
He was so sly, turning off her phone on purpose, sneakily leading her to the study.
