Chapter 2643: Chapter 2643

She deemed Edwin shameless.

Lounging on the sofa, Alexis narrowed her eyes at Edwin.

“It’s still daylight, Edwin, so show some restraint.

Ten Lauras wouldn’t be sufficient for your teasing antics.

”

As Edwin headed to the kitchen, he quipped, “I just need one.

”

Alexis snickered.

“Hah! That’s our man.

”

Laura’s face deepened in color, and she remained silent.

Observing Laura’s expression, Alexis understood what had stirred Edwin’s interest.

Edwin was robust in nature, while Laura was such a sweet little thing.

She was so endearing.

Edwin excelled not only in teasing Laura but also in the culinary arts.

The dishes he prepared were delectable.

After dinner, Edwin spent two hours in the study with Leonel.

Upon emerging, Edwin departed with Laura.

Eventually, Leonel, rubbing his temples, stepped out of the study.

Engaged in watching TV, Alexis inquired softly, “You’ve been spending a lot of time with Edwin lately, haven’t you?”

Leonel nodded.

Unbuttoning his shirt, he expressed gently, “He approached me for an investment in a project.

After evaluation, it seems viable.

I might have a business trip for a few days next week.

”

Alexis nodded without delving further into the matter.

Leonel dr@ped his arm around her shoulders from behind the sofa and inquired, “Why the sudden lack of inquiries?”

“It wouldn’t be suitable for me to pry into your business matters.

Besides, Edwin is like a brother to me.

”

Alexis maintained a clear distinction between business and private matters.

Leonel proposed, “Wouldn’t it be fitting if I gifted you some shares?”

After a brief pause, he inquired, “What do you think of twenty percent?”

Turning to face him, Alexis embraced his neck and whispered, “Don’t, Leonel.

We don’t need to convey our feelings through such gestures.

I have my own financial means.

”

Gazing down at her, Leonel whispered in a husky tone, “Yet, Alexis, I desire to give you all that I possess and share every aspect of my life with you.

”

Inhaling deeply, Alexis expressed, “Your words truly move me.

”

Leonel affectionately patted her hip and remarked, “You’re quite a character.

”
