Chapter 2591 How dare you!” Serenity looked at him with a pitiful gaze, tears welling in her eyes.

Growing somewhat hysterical, she pleaded, “Leonel, I did all this for you! What's wrong with loving you? I'm the one who's been hurt-the one who's been there for you. Can't you spare a thought for me? What does Alexis have that I don't?" Leonel sneered. “You're incomparable to her in every way!” His Alexis is perpetually resilient on the surface yet tender-hearted.

She'd go to great lengths for Edwin's success, treating her siblings with the utmost care. Despite things didn’t work out between them back then, she remained the familial sentiment for him.

The idea of comparing Serenity to Alexis was an outright insult, as they were clearly not on the same level.

ANGELA'sLIBRARY Leonel's frigidity heightened. “If life brings you misfortune, it's a consequence of your own actions. If you wish to avoid future regrets, rid yourself of the child.” Serenity’s complexion paled, struggling to believe what she just heard.

Leonel was asking her to have an abortion?! Leonel studied her petite features and offered a faint smile.

“Serenity, you've held on for all these years. But do you truly understand the person I am? You might perceive me as sentimental, but you're unaware of the ice running through my veins. Unless it concerns someone I cherish, the value of other lives is negligible to me.” A quiet hush settled over the other person. “Don’t entertain thoughts of wielding life and death as threats. You hold no significance in my life, and if you were to meet your demise, only one person would mourn, and that’s Darwin.” Having uttered these words, Leonel departed without Looking back.

Tears cascaded down Serenity’s cheeks as she witnessed his departure, her lips bitten in anguish.

Believing that using a child could manipulate Leonel was nothing more than her wishful thinking.

Collapsing onto her bed, she buried her face in the pillow, sobbing uncontrollably. Darwin's call rang, and she answered tearfully, “Darwin, I'm expecting, what should I do? The child carries the Douglas surname!” Darwin lapsed into silence.

Upon Leonel’s hasty return to the hotel, Alexis was still present.

In his hotel room, she stood coatless, barefoot, leaning against the floor-to-ceiling window, her chin resting on her propped-up hand, deep in contemplation.

Leonel approached silently, embracing her from behind, his face nestled in her neck.

“What prompted your sudden visit?” Alexis shifted her head slightly, her voice tinged with hoarseness.

“l intended it as a surprise, but turned out I was the one got surprised! So, how's Serenity? Did she miscarry?” Leonel stayed silent for a moment before speaking in a low tone, “Aren't you curious about who the father of the child is?"

Chapter 2592 Alexis turned to face him, leaning against the wall, her voice gentle.

“It's not your child, is it?" “Absolutely not!” “Alexis, I've never had any entanglements with her before, and I certainly won't in the future, not to mention now.” Alexis raised her hand, delicately tracing his eyebrows and eyes.

He was quite handsome.

Leonel was brought up by her father, and though not sharing blood ties, he occasionally exhibited expressions reminiscent of her dad.

Using her slender fingers, she lightly brushed against his rather prominent nose.

In a tense tone, she continued, “Then why do you seem so troubled? Let me make a guess. Is the child your father's? After that night, Serenity was aware that she might conceive, yet deliberately refrained from taking precautions, correct?” Leonel remained silent, yet his gaze spoke volumes with intense clarity.

As though he desired to consume her entirely.

Alexis pushed him aside and walked towards the sofa. “Have you eaten? I'm feeling hungry. Let's order some food!” He seized her delicate wrist, drawing her into a distinctly masculine hug.

Angela's Library Leonel’s voice, deeply resonant, whispered, “Alexis, I need to kiss you.” He pressed her against the wall, his hand sensuously tracing the hemline of her shirt with fervor.

Alexis felt a stir of emotion, yet her rationality held firm.

Nevertheless, she gently pushed him away, stating, “You have the scent of hospital. I don't like it. Let's eat first!” Leonel adamantly held onto her, keeping her close, his head Lowered as he spoke tenderly. “Are you still bothered? There's nothing between her and me. I merely didn't wish to abandon a expecting ‘woman in distress.” Alexis placed her trust in him.

Given their present relationship, Leonel wouldn't entangle himself with Serenity.

Yet women's emotions are frequently enigmatic, and she had no desire to alter her small quirks.

Alexis stayed quiet.

Chapter 2593 Leonel persisted in kissing her, pinning her head against the wall.

He then delicately tilted his head, engaging in a kiss from various angles, intensifying the intimacy.

After an extended period of time, the kiss concluded.

Alexis’ cheeks exhibited a faint blush, particularly her lips, which appeared rosy and slightly swollen.

Pinned against the wall, Alexis exclaimed, “You're out of breath! You're simply...” Leonel tilted his head, his lips in proximity to her ear, murmuring, “You've become accustomed to such passionate kisses, haven't you?” “Leonel, you're insatiable!” Alexis kicked him. “I'm famished! After a long day at work, I rushed over without having a meal, and you're still being so annoying!” Given their intimate connection, it felt natural for her to express her feelings. “You don't care about me the way you did in our childhood.” Leonel offered no response.
