Chapter 2621 Sensing Alexis’ contemplation, the secretary discreetly exited, granting Alexis the solitude she sought.

Truly, Alexis was taken aback.

She had no idea Leonel had undergone a vasectomy.

Recalling events from a week ago, Alexis reminisced about the night when Leonel, claiming fatigue, embarked on a business trip to Heron.

Despite her visit, their intimacy was absent, likely during the recovery period post-vasectomy.

Subsequently, their physical connection resumed once he had healed.

An unsettling thought lingered in Alexis’ mind. Had she not inquired, would she have remained oblivious to the fact that they were incapable of having children of their own? The urge to call Leonel surged within her.

() But after all, she exercised restraint. As an adult, she recognized the need for caution after Serenity’s deliberate unsettling revelations.

The evening found Alexis disheartened and disengaged.

Disinclined to return home, Alexis aimlessly drove to downtown, parked her car, and took a leisurely stroll. Despite Leonel’s calls urging her to return for dinner, she remained elusive.

Amidst the neon glow, Alexis responded to the phone call.

The light cast on her face gave it a gilded appearance, as if coated with ad Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated for All Books Updates...

elicate glaze.

It exuded a gentle radiance.

She was aware that Leonel had likely arranged a table with delicious food and even prepared gifts for the evening, but she simply didn't feel like going home. The sound of his gentle voice, speaking so much, had an effect on her, leaving her in a distracted state of mind.

Eventually, she uttered softly, “Leonel, Serenity paid me a visit.” Confused, Leonel questioned, “What was her purpose?” Perceiving Serenity as a potential troublemaker at Alexis’ workplace, he asserted, “I'll take care of it.” Dismissing his concern with a shake of her head, Alexis revealed, “She conveyed a single piece of information to me.” A brief silence enveloped both ends of the call.

After a pause, Alexis continued, “She mentioned that you had a vasectomy.” A sharp inhale from Leonel suggested his unease. Alexis speculated on the veracity of Serenity’s revelation.

Alexis opted not to inquire about Serenity’s source of information.

She surmised that Serenity delved into Leonel's affairs, driven by an unwillingness to relinquish him.

Chapter 2622 Focused on Leonel's response, Alexis awaited his explanation.

Expressing her sentiments, Alexis’ voice carried a subtle tension.

“Our future should have been discussed when you proposed. Shouldn't decisions about our future be mutual? Leonel, this doesn't sit well with me.” He underwent the procedure for her well-being.

() But he should have told her about it; otherwise, she might carry a lifelong regret, believing she couldn't bear children. She would therefore feel sorry for him in the future, not knowing the truth and simply believing she was unable to provide him with a complete family.

An emotional tinge colored Alexis’ nose.

It had been years since she last felt such vulnerability. It wasn't about someone failing her.

Rather, it was the realization that everything wasn't as she had envisioned it to be.

Breaking the prolonged silence, Leonel gently implored, “Alexis, come home. We can sit down and talk.” With lowered eyes, Alexis confessed, “Leonel, I'm feeling a bit upset.” Understanding her emotions, Leonel adopted a conciliatory tone. “Let me clarify, alright? Either return home or share your location, and I'l come to get you.” Hindered by her emotional state, Alexis refrained from driving.

Despite her intention to take a taxi, Leonel insisted on fetching her.

Eventually, she relented and provided him with the address.

In no time, Leonel arrived, covering the distance in approximately 20 minutes.

Spotting Alexis at Fortune Square, he observed her squatting, captivated by children engaged in a chase with a dove, lost in contemplation.

Approaching, Leonel mirrored her posture, tenderly running his fingers through her hair. “It’s late, and you haven't headed home.
