The light was on in the main bedroom. When he pushed the door, Alexis was lounging on the couch, watching TV. She had on a white robe that showed off her slim shape.

She looked up at the sound of footsteps. "You went out for a drink?" she asked.

Leonel didn't deny it. "James set it up last minute. You were dealing with paperwork, so I didn't bother you," he explained.

Hearing this, Alexis smiled faintly.

Suddenly, she caught a whiff of perfume on him. Even though she rarely wore any, Alexis recognized the scent from a perfume counter.
