Just then, a servant hurried over with a medical kit. As she retrieved the rubbing alcohol, she said, "Dr. Gyln is unavailable. I've contacted Dr. Hall. He should arrive within half an hour."

Only then did Leonel remember. He picked up the alcohol and instructed, "I'll take it from here."

Leonel and Alexis clung to each other tightly, resembling Siamese twins. The servant, overcome with embarrassment, avoided Looking at them again and exited the room, closing the door gently.

With her back against the door, she pondered silently to herself.

Clearly, there were still feelings between Leonel and Alexis, especially evident when Alexis was vulnerable.

The thought brought a smile to the servant's face. She quickly made her way downstairs to prepare soup. With Alexis Likely feeling very weak when the doctor arrived to treat her fever, replenishing her body with nourishing food was imperative.

A nice bowl of chicken soup would definitely help.

Inside the bedroom, Alexis remained entwined with Leonel. Perhaps due to discomfort, she buried her face in his chest and whispered his name softly.

Her voice felt like a tender nibble on his heart.

His heart felt numb and tingly.

Leonel didn't know the extent of his capacity to Love someone, but he was certain that Alexis was the only one who could make his heart flutter. She was also the only one who could prevent him from succumbing to the darkness within his instincts. That was why he found peace in being with the Fowler family.

Alexis was the epitome of beauty in his eyes, though for a time, he had momentarily forgotten that.

As he held the woman in his arms, feeling the heat radiating from her body, Leonel gently moved her arms aside and whispered softly in her ear, “I'll help you clean up. Just relax, Alexis."

Maybe his comforting words had an effect, as Alexis relaxed her hold and settled onto the bed gently.

It felt like he had the power to do anything.

Leonel let out a shaky breath as he stared at her. Then he switched off all the bedside Lamps.

The spacious bedroom was cloaked in darkness, with a gentle drizzle continuing outside. Despite the weather, the moon quietly appeared from behind the clouds. Its gentle light seeped through the window, bathing the large bed in a soft glow. It seemed to wrap around the woman lying there, creating a serene and beautiful scene.

Leonel leaned in slowly, his fingers trembling as he unbuttoned Alexis' shirt.

He was afraid that she would refuse him and react violently.

However, Alexis remained passive, lying there quietly and obediently watching him.
