A Second Chance With My Billionaire Love

With teary eyes, Anika continued, “I know you love her, but... I don't want to complicate things or wreck your marriage. I just want to spend tonight with you.” Leonel found it hard to believe.

But when a guy was down, having someone compliant was always appealing. He didn't feel for Anika but he appreciated her docility.

Eventually, he said casually, “Alright, how about you whip up some coffee and give me a shoulder rub?” Anika felt a pang of disappointment at his response but then she figured at least he was sticking around for the night.

In other words, she still had a shot.

Late into the night, too tired to head back to the hotel, Leonel crashed on the sofa.

The next morning, work called, and he dashed out, leaving his coat behind.

(booksbybunny) On his way to the office, he checked his phone, half-expecting messages from Alexis.

She had to react after last night, right? But there was nada on his phone, no texts, no calls, nothing.

The truth was, Alexis couldn't care less about what went down between him and Anika.

Leonel stared at his phone for a moment, and then chuckled bitterly.

Inside the Sterling Law Firm office.

Seated at her desk, Alexis pored over a file. Her phone buzzed -it was Melissa, inviting her for a meal.

It seemed like everyone knew about Leonel and Anika’s affair now! Despite her disdain for him, Alexis felt they should have a heart-to- heart. Maybe now, with another woman in the picture, he'd finally make a decision.

After grabbing her purse, Alexis headed out for the meet-up.

As she left her office, colleagues greeted her warmly. But she sensed a tinge of pity in their eyes. Content rights by NôvelDr//ama.Org.

With a bitter chuckle, Alexis sighed inwardly.

She'd once adored Leonel, never imagining they'd end up like this someday. Wasn't love supposed to be eternal? What a load of crap!
