Chapter 2481 Alexis forcefully pushed him aside.

Lifting her gaze, her eyes met his with a cold and distant expression.

Leonel’s heart was pierced with an indescribable pain, and his voice was rough and unsteady. “Let's set everything else aside for now, Alexis. We can talk about that later, but now, I need to take you to the hospital.” “What other things do we have to talk about?” ANGELA'sLIBRARY Alexis’s laughter was cold and scornful. Rising gradually, she moved past him towards the door.

While passing each other, Leonel extended his hand, but she brushed it off Swiftly reaching the door, she suddenly collapsed.

“Alexis! Alexis!" In the hospital, late into the night, Alexis received a diagnosis of a mild concussion, necessitating an overnight stay for observation.

Having settled the fees, Leonel returned to her room.

Alexis was awake, elevated in bed, gazing into the night through the window, lost in contemplation.

“Do you feel hungry? I can fetch some food.” Without meeting his gaze, she responded softly, “Go back home. My assistant will come to stay with me” Leonel departed silently.

However, after half an hour, he returned, bearing a box of her preferred rice noodles.

“Try having something to eat.” He organized the rice noodles and presented them to Alexis. “If you can't manage, I'l assist you.” Alexis swayed her hand, causing the food to scatter across the floor in disarray.

In a steady voice, Alexis uttered, “Please go. I can't bear to see you. I'l repay your $2Q@ billion within a week. Leonel, you don't owe me anything; you've simply pursued your desires. Henceforth, our paths separate.” Leonel swallowed hard.

Nonetheless, he persisted. “If you feel hungry later, Il bring more.” He meticulously cleaned the floor and then poured water for Alexis. Unable to convince him to depart and feeling truly unwell, Alexis lay down, disregarding his presence.

She wouldn't have to face him again in the morning.\

Chapter 2482 Their paths wouldn't cross by then.

However, it still hurt.

Her cheek throbbed, evidence of the man's enraged slap that made its impact.

Alexis had never experienced being struck by anyone before.

However, she could have never fathomed that it would be Leonel hitting her, all for the sake of someone else.

Was this the Leonel she was familiar with? The one who grew up alongside her in her home, sharing her small princess bed? If it was indeed him, how could he develop feelings for someone else? If it was him, how could he hit her? Alexis gently closed her eyes, murmuring, “A dream that has spanned almost 20 years. Alexis, it's time to awaken.” They maintained a standoff, spending a sleepless night. With the arrival of dawn, Alexis sat up and contacted her assistant to arrange her discharge.

Concluding the call, Leonel’s gaze lingered on her, profound and filled with unspoken words.

He whispered, “Alexis, it's not what you think between her and me. We dated for only three months. We separated because we were not suitable for each other. She subsequently married Darwin, and now we're just friends.” ANGELA'sLIBRARY Alexis had no desire to hear any excuses.

She draped her coat over her shoulders, approached the window, and opened it, gazing outside. She said in a hushed tone, “Leonel, I've extended all my tolerance to you, but you've reciprocated with what truly disgusted me.

Whether you and Serenity are still entangled or not doesn't truly matter.

What matters is that you have her photo on your desk. What really matters is that you slapped me because of her. What else do you have to say for yourself? Do you think so little of me? That I'm unwanted by everyone?” Finishing her statement, Alexis steadied her forehead.

She still experienced slight dizziness.

Leonel slowly approached from behind, holding her shoulders and resting his head against hers. “Alexis, forgive me this once! I can't imagine my life without you.” After drifting for 8 years, he had come to realize what he truly desired.

He couldn't comprehend why, but in the face of Alexis’ harsh words, he responded impulsively. He found himself unable to justify his actions, and his sole request was for her forgiveness.

However, Alexis gently pushed him aside.

There was nothing more to be said between them.

Chapter 2483 In that instant, her assistant entered, pausing awkwardly as they felt the tension in the air.

Alexis said in a soft tone, “Please arrange for my discharge.” The assistant, observing her expression, hesitated. “Miss Fowler, What happened to your face?” Alexis replied with indifference, “A dog bit me!” With that, she grabbed her bag and proceeded directly to the door.

“Alexis!” Leonel called out from behind, his voice weighing down, “Regarding us...” He was abruptly silenced as Alexis sharply interrupted, “I don’t want you anymore!” With that, she walked away.

The door of the hospital room swung open and closed.

Leonel stood there, suddenly feeling the sunlight piercingly sharp. The assistant asked in a hushed tone, “Mr. Douglas, what's happening between you and Miss Fowler? Her face.” “I hit her! She no longer wants me!” Leonel spoke with a despair the assistant had never witnessed before.

The assistant remained frozen.

Alexis left the hospital and proceeded directly to her apartment, bypassing her office.

She needed some rest.

Sleeping meant steering clear of thoughts and harboring any resentment toward Leonel.

In the afternoon, she awoke with the intention of cooking. However, upon being confronted by reminders of Leonel throughout, she closed the fridge and opted for takeout. Subsequently, she ‘commenced packing his belongings.

Initially, he had brought four large suitcases. Now she crammed all his elegant clothes and accessories into them, leaving them in the living room.

She believed that Leonel would come to collect them.

True to expectations, he arrived in the evening, using the key she gave him to access the apartment.

Clad in a black silk robe and holding a wine glass, Alexis nudged the luggage with her foot, stating, “Leave the key. Take your belongings.” Leonel started removing his coat. “I'l prepare dinner!” He proceeded toward the kitchen.
