A Second Chance With My Billionaire Love

The car window rolled up.

Alexis slowly disengaged herself from Leonel. Before starting the car, he turned his head to her and said in a low voice, What? Pulling away right after youre done using me? You acted very differently in front of your dad.

Alexis gave him a fake smile and answered, And you played along.

Leonel shut his mouth and said nothing more. Their children were in the car, and he didnt want to argue in front of them.

He drove the kids to school, and then headed to Alexis law firm.

The car stopped in front of the building, but before Alexis could get out, Leonel held her hand and said, I have a business dinner scheduled tonight, so I cant pick up the kids after school. Can you pick them up and take them to eat somewhere? lll come get you as soon as my appointment is finished.

Alexis nodded. Okay. You dont have to come if it gets too late. I can just drive us all home.

Leonels face darkened.

There was a brief pause before he breached the problem that lingered in the air between them. Alexis, I swear nothing happened last night.

She only smiled at him.

Call it a wifes intuition. She knew better than anyone when he was lying.

If nothing had happened, why was he so hell-bent on explaining himself? The Leonel she knew would just impatiently say, Can you drop it? How can I admit to something I didnt do? Alexis got out of the car and went inside the office. Soon, her assistant came up to her and discussed the

case.

Inside the car, Leonel watched her receding figure quietly. She seemed to be in higher spirits the moment she stepped out of the car.

Perhaps this was really the life she wanted Evelyns birth hadnt really been planned, and they later decided to have Daniel for her because she was gravely sick. Alexis had probably long lost her feelings for Leonel. She wouldnt have married him if not for the kids.

To her, she was simply tolerating their set-up, which was why she was blind to his pain.

Leonel had a lot of work, but he stayed inside the car, smoking two cigarettes. As he blew out smoke, he contemplated his marriage with Alexis.

At half past nine, his phone rang with a call from his secretary.

She urged him to go to the company, reminding him of the matters he had to deal with.

Thus, Leonel began another hectic day.

It was eight oclock in the evening when he arrived to meet the clients

discussing the new project Waylen mentioned earlier that day, his female secretary accompanying him. The negotiations had long been settled. Leonel only needed to confirm some details tonight.

The dinner was taking place in a private room in the most Luxurious hotel in Duefron.

Leonel was among the last to arrive, pushing the door open to enter.

With a smile, a man inside said to him, Mr. Douglas, youre late. You have to drink three glasses of wine as punishment. This is from NôvelDrama.Org.
