Chapter 2663: Chapter 2663

Abruptly, her gaze halted.

She saw Leonel on the opposite balcony, holding a cigarette between his slender fingers and gazing at her, his thoughts concealed…

Alexis didn’t bother offering a smile in return.

She had simply made the decision to leave.

In that moment, Calvin emerged and noticed Leonel across the way.

He gave Alexis a reassuring pat.

Alexis trailed behind Calvin as they returned to the bedroom.

The closed French window obscured their figures, overlapping through misted glass.

Resting against the French window, Alexis inquired in a raspy voice, “What’s going on?”

Calvin leaned in closer to Alexis and advised, “Let him face a bit of reality.

I doubt any man could endure it, especially Leonel at this moment.

”

The men understood each other thoroughly.

Alexis noticed that Leonel continued to gaze at her with intense eyes.

In reality, she didn’t need any schemes to achieve her objective.

However, since she had no desire to really stay by Leonel’s side, even if she went back to him now, their relationship would be doomed to have an expiration date.

Wearing a self-deprecating smile, Alexis remarked, “You’re correct.

It’s preferable for him to harbor resentment toward me.

”

This way, they could part ways entirely.

The bedroom was tranquil in this afternoon as the sun _ bathed everything in

its glow, creating a beautiful scene.

Calvin truly desired to preserve this moment.

Calvin remained silent.

He pressed his head against Alexis’ face and murmured, “If I can live for another 20 years, I won’t give up on you.

”

Following Calvin’s words, his lips lightly grazed the side of her ear.

Alexis remained silent and didn’t pull away.

She contemplated the possibility that if Calvin’s words held true, perhaps she would truly share her life with him.

However, life had no room for “ifs.

” At present, she could only wish for Calvin to live a few more years.

Speaking in a soft and gentle tone, she urged, “Don’t talk like that.

”

Calvin expressed in anguish, “You’re aware of it.

”

They silently leaned on each other for an extended period of time.
