That streak of madness ran in Leonel's blood.

She hadn't noticed it before, but now it was crystal clear.

Leonel was a genuine lunatic, a risk-taker!

“What if I refuse?" Alexis managed to utter.

A faint smile played on Leonel's lips. "Then I've got nothing left to lose! Alexis... Truth be told, those years together, I was mighty content."

His youthful rebellion cost him their bond.

No matter how many times he professed his love for her, she wouldn't believe it.

Life would not have been as difficult, Leonel reasoned, if he had never known her.

But they had happened, and there was no going back.

They were so well together that they could have even gotten married.

If only that night he hadn't struck her, perhaps they would've had a child...

He faintly smiled, allowing Alexis to step out of the car.

Alexis finally erupted. "Leonel, you're deranged! Do you think you can scare me?! Your life or death doesn't weigh an ounce on my mind “Really?” His smile lingered faintly.

Alexis slapped him, imprinting a five-finger mark on his fair face.

But Alexis cried.

The person she despised most in her life was Leonel!

He was at fault, the one who betrayed their love, who abandoned her for another, yet he dared to use himself as Leverage...

In a fury, Alexis struck him several more times.

Leonel seemed unfazed, simply observing her tenderly.

Alexis' voice choked as she saod, “Let me out of the car!"
