Chapter 2361 Unable to stay in the room any longer, Alexis rose to leave. As Leonel reached out to her, she forcefully shook off his grasp. Her voice low and strained, she implored, “Leonel, have some self-respect.
Let's preserve some dignity here.” With that, she exited the room, though she couldn't help but slam the door in frustration.
In the lamplight, Leonel looked even more pallid, a stark contrast to the warmth of the room.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAlexis, stepping into the cold hallway barefoot, felt an even deeper chill.
She realized with surprise that she was crying.
Lifting her head, she questioned her own tears. Why cry over someone like Leonel? It wasn't worth it.
Upstairs, the light in the study was on.
Waylen stood in the doorway, watching her in silence.
Alexis approached and embraced him softly.
“Dad.” He responded with a gentle pat on her back.
“Why are you barefoot? Come to the study; it's warm inside.” In his embrace, Alexis felt a sense of comfort, albeit mixed with the embarrassment of her rare emotional outburst.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAngela's Library Waylen showed nothing but understanding and warmth. To him, Alexis was his first little girl, unique in her own way compared to Marcus and Elva. He had raised her with his own hands for years, fostering a special bond between them.
Despite her achievements in the legal world, she was still his little Alexis in his eyes.
He prepared a cup of warm milk for her and wrapped her in a wool blanket. Alexis, leaning on his shoulder, sipped the milk just like she did as a child.
Waylen's concern was evident as he asked, “Did Leonel give you trouble? | can handle him if he did.” Alexis, tears still Lingering in her eyes, managed a laugh.
“I can take care of it myself!” Waylen affectionately stroked her hair, and half-jokingly said, “I bet that kid wouldn't dare fight back either.” Holding her milk, Alexis seemed lost in thought.
Waylen sighed softly, a hint of insight in his voice.
