Unable to keep up the act, Alexis opened her eyes.

Leonel, resting against the headboard, caressed her face, whispering, "You reached climax multiple times last night."

Despite Alexis' resilience, she found it challenging to endure such a dialogue.

Sitting upright, she tousled her hair. "What's the time? I need to head to the law firm."

She preferred attending a meeting at the law firm over subjecting herself to his vulgar remarks.

However, Leonel preempted her.

Casually, he remarked, “Your secretary called a moment ago. I informed her that you're fatigued and won't be attending work today.

It's surprising, isn't it? Didn't she contact you?"

A brief pause ensued.

Leonel found Alexis endearing in her moments of embarrassment.

Lying back on the bed, she gazed at the ceiling and stated matter-of-factly, "I require a minimum of a week to recuperate."

"Why do I sense a decline in your physical vigor?"

"I'm of the opinion that you're even more insufferable than before."

Leonel remained calm, gazing at her in silence.

Alexis, turning her back to him, uttered, "I‘m going back to sleep."

He tenderly tugged at her slender shoulder, resting his chin upon it as he whispered softly, “Evelyn really likes the sheep dolls you brought back. She's been playing with them all morning. And I also appreciate the person you brought back. I spent the entire night with her, but it still wasn't enough. What's your suggestion for the predicament?”

Alexis lifted the quilt to conceal her face, finding his audacity amusing.

Leonel chuckled softly. After a brief pause, he sighed and whispered in her ear, “Let's put Calvin behind us. From now on, let's focus on living our lives, alright?"

Alexis found herself slightly taken aback.

Leonel's change in attitude was unexpected. She had not anticipated such a shift in his demeanor overnight.
