Chapter 2498 Shifting away discreetly, she replied, “It was alright. But discussing this, Mr. Douglas, seems inappropriate. We can remain silent if you don't want to talk business. Also, you don't need to be so close.” Leonel’s voice was a hushed murmur. “You better hope your blind dates don't work out, because | won't let you be with anyone else.” Alexis shot back, “Aren't you the shameless one?” She gave him a chilly look and closed her eyes, but her expression softened once they were shut, losing the sharp, cutting edge.

Everything he had since childhood came from the Fowler family.
Now, stripped of those privileges, he was merely the old Leonel Douglas.
Evans Gardon, once a familiar place, was now out of his reach.
The Evans family driver, oblivious to the rift, greeted Leonel. “Mr. Douglas, aren't you coming?” He replied with a melancholic shake of his head, “No, I'll be at a hotel.” As Alexis boarded the car, Mark, seated in the back, eyed her. “Did you really have a fallout with that guy? He looks madly upset.” In front of her parents, Alexis could maintain a facade, but before her great-uncle, her defenses crumbled. “Great-uncle Mark!" she exclaimed.
As a child, she always turned to him first with her problems.
