A Second Chance With My Billionaire Love

Chapter 2321-2330

Chapter 2321 Leonel clenched his fist.

“Is he really that good?” he asked, his voice tense.

Alexis blinked.

“You'll only know if you try,” she teased.

Frustrated and unwilling to continue the conversation, Leonel stood up to leave but ran into Edwin halfway up the stairs. Edwin had stayed the night, anticipating the drama.

Seeing the early morning excitement, he knew Alexis was the key to handling Leonel.

Edwin naturally took Alexis’ side. With an air of feigned ignorance, Edwin grinned.

“Everyone's awake so early, huh?” Leonel, without a word, brushed past him and continued upstairs.

Descending the stairs in his thick white bathrobe, Edwin approached Alexis. She stretched out her leg.

“A massage, please! I've had a long night and I'm exhausted!” she said, half-joking.

Edwin, who had always shared a close bond with Alexis, began massaging her leg thoughtfully.

After a moment, he inquired, “What's your plan now?” He nodded subtly towards the upper floor.

“He's back. Are you planning to push him away?” Alexis tapped his head playfully in response, her smile faint.

“You're worrying too much, Edwin. The world doesn't offer many chances to mend broken relationships.” Edwin returned her smile gently, choosing not to probe further.

Upstairs, Leonel stood frozen, his fingers tightly gripping the railing, turning white from the strain.

He overheard Alexis’ comment about the rarity of mending broken relationships, her tone tinged with indifference.

The feeling in Leonel’s heart was indescribable. Once in his room, he leaned heavily against the door. He contemplated returning to Acoiclya in a few days, to return to their previous dynamic.

As polite, courteous family members, they could assist each other during difficulties but not as lovers.

This would bring ease to everyone.

After their breakup, Alexis had made no attempts to win him back.

Chapter 2322 He knew there had been a time when she awaited his regret and return, believing he would eventually come back to their shared home.

But he never did, not through all those years.

Her decision to move on was understandable.

Now, he questioned his right to feel upset.

Preparing to pack for Acoiclya, Leonel felt an unbearable ache in his heart.

Memories of his traumatic childhood, witnessing his mother’s tragic end, weighed heavily on him.

He had learned to live with repression.

To Leonel, Alexis had been a beacon of light in his life, but its intensity had once seemed too glaring, prompting him to shut it out.

Now, longing for that very light, he realized Alexis was no longer willing to bestow it upon him.

Clutching his chest, Leonel felt a deep pang of pain.

As he grappled with these thoughts, a sudden knock at the door jolted him back to the present.

Leonel went to open the door and saw Waylen standing there.

“Mr. Fowler” Waylen glanced at him. He walked in at a deliberate pace, stooped over to retrieve the passport from the sofa, and commented, “You just returned a few days ago, and now you're departing again, huh?” Leonel affirmed, “Yes, 'm planning to.” Waylen thumbed through the passport and casually probed, “Is it because of Alexis?” To that question, Leonel had no response ready.

After a contemplative pause, he eventually confided, “No, it’s my fault” “Of course, it's your fault!” Waylen retraced his steps to the door, closing it behind him before turning to confront Leonel.

“You charted the course of your life too early. Why don't you simply explore the world more and think carefully before making big decisions? Now, i Such matters always weighed heavily on a father.

After all, Leonel was akin to a son, a lad he had seen grow up into a man.

Chapter 2323 Waylen lit a cigarette; halfway through it, he spoke up.

“At first, when I aided the Douglas family and took you in, the primary reason was indeed your rare blood type. But ponder this, Leonel. Over the years, did I not treat you as my own, or did Rena not adore you like a son? She even yearned to love you more, yet I held her back.

I believed all four children in the family deserved equal treatment.
