Leonel gave her a look.
Elva pouted and said, âBut you were in her room.
â
Waylen handed her a cup of milk and she softly thanked him, âThanks, Daddy.
â
Waylen feigned indifference and inquired, âSo, Leonel, whatâs your plan with Alexis?â
After all, their relationship couldnât continue indefinitely with just casual sleepovers!
That was his daughter they were talking about!
Sure, Leonel was almost like a son to him, but⦠It was different with a girl as she might end up in a less favorable position.
Leonel responded with a faint smile, âIâm actually thinking about marriage.
It all hinges on Alexisâ feelings.
â
Waylen agreed with a nod, âHer opinion is truly important.
â
But he couldnât shake off his concerns.
What if their relationship didnât work out? They had already been intimate.
How would they manage to Live under the same roof in the future if they eventually broke up? Just thinking about this was distressing.
Later that evening, Leonel arrived to pick up Alexis.
As they settled into the car, he asked her, âDid you sleep all day?â

Alexis replied with a hum, âIâve been busy with a case and barely slept a few hours each night.
I finally got a chance to rest!â
She leaned back into her seat and said, âAnd you were dragging me into the Smith familyâs issues! Leonel, youâre really something else.
He remained silent and just gently touched her face.
She had lost some weight but was still strikingly attractive.
He suggested in a soft voice, âWhat do you say we stop by the grocery store, pick up some beef, and Iâll make you a stew?â
âAnd throw in some dumplings too!â she added.
âsure! Whatever you feel like eating⦠Anything works for me!â
It had been ages since theyâd had such a peaceful coexistence.
Leonel couldnât help himself so he leaned in and pressed his Lips against hers.
Their ki*s grew more intense, filled with tender entanglement and soft gasps.
The ki*sing was really gentle, yet it was also deep and touching.
After a while, he drew back and whispered, âLetâs head to the grocery store, and then to my place.
Alexis didnât object.
