Chapter: 4109
Alexis gazed up at the night sky, blinking back tears.
She didn't respond to Timmy's question.
That night, she ended things with Leonel for good. Yet, his name still dominated the headlines, especially with Anika.
In his fancy ride, Leonel looked wasted.
Anika tended to him, unbuttoning his shirt. He didn't resist and his eyes were soft.
He looked at her with a clear and gentle look.
Their intimate moment lit up screens.
Leonel's company was working overtime on damage control.
The PR manager smoothly stated, "Mr. Douglas and his wife are divorcing. Whether Miss Cohen's his new squeeze, that's their business."
"Stop reading."
Timmy snatched the paper, coming over to treat Alexis' feet.
Luckily, it wasn't too bad. After meds last night, the bleeding stopped, but she'd lost a lot. Her face was pale.
After fixing her up, Timmy shared a few more words.
Slipping on her shoes, Alexis explained, "I can't stay in the hospital. Loads to handle at the law firm."
As she spoke, the door swung open.
In came Olivia, Mark, and Cecilia.
Olivia just got back from abroad, picked up by Mark and Cecilia.
Knowing Timmy, they rushed over before the Fowlers.
Mark and Cecilia adored Alexis.
She was her family's firstborn, spoiled since a kid. Later, she tried to be the tough big sister and cared for her siblings and cousins when they came along. Trying to keep it together, she still choked out, “Great-uncle Mark."
