A Second Chance With My Billionaire Love

Chapter 2501-2510

Chapter 2501 She felt exhausted from the dialogue and started walking toward her room.

Leonel continued, “This afternoon at two, we have to go to the other company for the first round of negotiations.” Alexis nodded.

As Alexis walked away, Leonel’s words followed her in a gentle whisper, ANGELA'SLIBRARY “Alexis, if it's possible, I'd sacrifice everything to undo that slap!” Alexis continued on her path and she only responded with a slight smile.

Life, alas, had no ifs.

She went back to her room for a nap, and then got ready quickly before joining Leonel in his car for their visit to the client's company. When Alexis got into the car, she noticed that he was pale and expressed her concern by saying, “Are you sure you don’t want us to postpone the meeting? You look quite pale which could impact the negotiation.

“Are you worried about me?” Leonel turned to her and asked.

Alexis replied with an uninterested tone, “My concern is for the success of our project.” Leonel gently stepped on the gas and said in a casual tone, “I see. Your disdain for me has grown to the point where you wouldn't be bothered even if I were seriously sick.” His voice was laced with sadness, a feeling Alexis could obviously sense.

She remained silent though.

After an hour, they reached the location where the negotiation was set to take place.

The negotiations were rigorous and demanding and they lasted for six hours.

Contrary to what Alexis had anticipated, despite how pale he looked, Leonel maintained his sharpness and unwavering commitment to issues related to profit and was very confident.

Alexis wanted to talk about the case with him during the break.

However, Leonel appeared quite pale. He excused himself. “I have to use the restroom.” Alexis remained in the lounge, going over documents and didn’t even touch her tea and snacks.

Leonel came back about 15 minutes later.

He settled next to Alexis and they conversed about the negotiations in a low voice. Alexis closed the file. “You need to rest. Is putting your health on the line really worth the financial gain?" “Do you care about me now?” Leonel asked.

“Why would I? It's your life, not mine.”

Chapter 2502 A bit annoyed, Alexis walked out to the terrace.

It was already late and dinner time was long gone. She was no stranger to this level of work intensity.

But this didn’t mean she was comfortable working alongside someone unwell.

Leonel was ill! Alexis thought about ways to convince him to take better care of himself; she didn’t know how to talk to him. Maybe it would be better to have another lawyer work with him.

Alexis felt frustrated.

However, the negotiation went on until 10 p.m. As they left the building, ANGELA'SLIBRARY Leonel collapsed in the car. His forehead was burning hot.

“Leonel!” Alexis opened the door on the driver's side and encouraged him to move to the backseat so that she could drive.

Leonel leaned on the steering wheel.

‘After a moment, he turned to her and asked, “Alexis, you still care about me, right?” Alexis responded with a scoff, “Caring for men has never brought anything good!” She pulled him out and said, “We're going to the hospital” Leonel grabbed her hand.

Even with his fever, his grip was firm. “Alexis! Alexis!" Before she knew it, she was pulled into his embrace.

His arms radiated intense heat, like a blazing fire.

The car door shut.

He clung to Alexis tightly, like a child clinging to a doll. “Don't leave, Alexis! Can you find it in your heart to forgive me?” Their cheeks touched and the warmth mixed with his masculine scent.

Alexis felt dizzy.

Chapter 2503 She asked with a hoarse voice, “Leonel, do you even know what you're doing right now?” He wasn't sure.

The only clear thought in his mind right now was the desire to keep her close...

Left with no choice, Alexis softly said, “I'l stay and drive you home.” Leonel muttered, “To Evans Gardon?” “Yes” Leonel gradually loosened his hold. Just when Alexis began to feel a sense of ease, he leaned in and kissed her.

His hand tenderly supported her head while his warm lips met hers.

They held each other tightly, as if nothing could part them.

His fever made the kiss more intense. His attractive features tinged with a feverish, ardent color... He kissed Alexis relentlessly as if he was under a spell.

Suddenly, he stopped.

Alexis softly shook her head. “That's not really the issue.” She went on, “This never should've happened at all! Things might still be fine if I hadn't given in. It wasn't supposed to go this way!
