Chapter 2791 Soon, Evelyn came up with a “diagnosis” She tilted her head and thought hard about how her mother took care of her whenever she was sick. Then, she ran downstairs to give orders to the servants. Soon, she returned followed by a servant holding a tray of food.

Evelyn was walking in front of the servant, looking like a well-seasoned hostess.

The servant set down the tray of food on the bedside and said with a smile, “Mrs. Douglas, Evelyn is really good at taking care of people. She said that you weren't feeling well and asked me to send lunch to your room. I'm sure she must've learned this from her father.” The servant was experienced and could guess the reason why Alexis had gotten up so late.

But of course, the servant wouldn't dare to talk about it in front of the child.

Alexis felt so ashamed that her cheeks turned bright red.

Seeing this, the sensible servant excused herself after setting down the tray. When the two girls were alone in the bedroom, Alexis looked at Evelyn.

Evelyn and Ollie were lying prone on the edge of the bed. Evelyn was resting her face on her hands, looking at Alexis expectantly, as though she was waiting to be praised.

Alexis couldn't help but giggle.

She touched Evelyn's soft hair and said, “You're such a good little girl. Mommy's feeling a lot better. Thank you, sweetie.” (thanoss.com) Evelyn suddenly felt a Little shy.

Blushing, she retreated to the parlor outside and busied herself with the building blocks; Ollie obediently followed her there.

Looking at this warm scene, Alexis felt soft. Combined with the scent of roses, she had no reason to be in a bad mood. In order not to disappoint the child, Alexis sat up in bed and ate.

Only when she took her first bite did she realize how hungry she was.

Thinking of Leonel insistence on making out so early in the morning, Alexis was a little annoyed.

Just then, her phone rang, interrupting her thoughts.

Speak of the devil! It was Leonel calling.

After a moment's hesitation, Alexis answered the phone. Leonel should've just gotten off the plane. He asked in a hoarse voice, “Up already?” Alexis didn't ask him how he knew. After all, the servants here were kind of like his spies.

“Yeah,” she replied, making it a point to say it in a lighthearted tone.

But Leonel knew his woman well. Seeing right through her, he smiled gently and said, “Rest well. I'l be back in a few days.” After exchanging a few more words, Alexis hung up the phone.

ALL of a sudden, she noticed a warm sensation trickling down her legs, so she quickly stood up.

Chapter 2792 The sheets were stained red.

At the same time, a sudden, sharp pain stabbed at Alexis’ belly.

Clutching her stomach, Alexis swore under her breath, wanting to kill Leonel.

Maybe it was because Leonel did Alexis so hard for days on end that she was so sore over the next few days. However, she wanted to get pregnant, so she didn't dare to casually take medicine for the pain.

When Alexis couldn't stand the pain, she took Evelyn to stay with her parents.

Rena looked after Alexis, while Waylen took care of Evelyn.

(thanoss.com) Evelyn wasn't in good health, so she couldn't go to regular amusement parks.

But in order to please his granddaughter, Waylen booked a whole themed park for a week for Evelyn to play in freely.

Seeing Evelyn getting along so well with Waylen, Alexis felt relieved.

On the fourth day, Alexis felt much better. Rena had prepared afternoon tea and invited Alexis to enjoy it in the garden.

It was early summer, so all the flowers were in full bloom.

It was Waylen who had planted this garden for Rena. Over the years, Rena was the one who maintained it.

In the small pavilion, a teapot of freshly steeped black tea and two antique cups were set on the marble table.

Smiling gently, Rena elegantly poured herself a cup of tea and said, “Leonel called me to say tha Books Chapters Are Daily Updated Join & Stay Updated for All Books Updates...

t he just got off the plane. He should be here soon.” Alexis’ eyebrows shot up in surprise.

Wasn't he supposed to come back tomorrow? Rena continued, “Your father told him that you and little Evelyn were here with us. Leonel seemed surprised and then got to know that you weren't feeling well. He said he'll come back once he's done with work.” Alexis nodded calmly.

Truth be told, she was actually panicking a bit on the inside.

She was kind of afraid of Leonel now. What if the horny man insisted on having sex with her every day? She pursed her lips, making up her mind to talk to him about it once she got pregnant.

Seeing Alexis’ troubled expression, she guessed that Alexis was thinking about Leonel, so she asked softly, “How're you two doing?” Alexis knew what her mother was really asking; Rena was basically asking if Leonel and Alexis were really together for the sake of Evelyn or for love.

Chapter 2793 Alexis mulled over the question for a while before finally answering, “We love each other, and we love Evelyn. Also, handling all this alone is becoming so tiring.” It wasn't easy, taking care of Evelyn alone in Braseovell. Alexis wasn't the same woman she used to be, thanks to all the suffering she endured from loving Leonel.

But now, she came to realize that not everything was about love.

“There's nothing wrong with being with someone who loves Evelyn,” Alexis concluded the conversation flatly.

Rena knew that.

She sighed with emotion, but she couldn't say much about it. After all, Alexis was a grown woman who could make her own decisions.

While sipping from her tea, Alexis looked up and saw a figure standing nearby.

It was Leonel.

Wearing a very exquisite windbreaker and carrying his suitcase, he seemed worn out, which meant that he might've come straight from the airport.

Alexis was slightly stunned.

How long had he been standing there? Did he overhear their conversation just now? (thanoss.com) ‘s (thanoss.com) However, Leonel seemed normal enough.
