A Second Chance With My Billionaire Love

Leonels fingers paled as he clenched the phone tightly.

Leonel’s grip on the phone tightened, his voice carrying a bitter edge.

“You don't get it, do you? You act like you're not to blame for any of this.

Don't you dare deny that you still think about Calvin. And my actions-are they really so unforgivable?” There was a bitter edge to Alexis’ voice as she responded, her tone detached. “Yes, I am to blame. I regret bringing you home that year. Yes, I won't deny it. I still miss Calvin. And yes, what you've done are unforgivable.” She shook her head, a sad smile playing on her lips. “Leonel, you're missing the point entirely. If you don't love me anymore and want out, just say it. But belittle the love I once had for you by doing what you've done? That crossed the line. Our time together meant something, whether you choose to acknowledge it or not.” Leonel felt the words caught in his throat, unable to speak.

Alexis’ smile vanished. “It's over, Leonel” With that, she ended the call.
