Resting one hand on the steering wheel and her chin on her fingertips, her charm made the scene strikingly pleasant.

With a chuckle, she teased, "Since when did you become so chatty, Mr. Douglas? Or is it guilt I detect?"

Leonel leaned in to kiss her, unable to conceal anything from Alexis.

He rested his forehead against hers and whispered in a deep, hoarse, yet gentle tone, "Did you pick that up from your therapist? Using it on me now, are you?"

His voice was smooth and seductive.

It was clear he was trying to charm her.

In fact, their reconciliation had been solidifying for some time.

Aside from a brief sexual encounter in the garage, Alexis and Leonel hadn't had sex. Alexis had attended several sessions with a renowned psychologist, though Leonel hadn't accompanied her, leaving him unaware of the details of her treatment.

Despite the absence of sex life recently, their relationship had shown significant improvement.

Often, in the quiet of the night after Cordelia had fallen asleep, they would engage in heartfelt conversations. During these moments, Leonel always regarded Alexis with a look of tenderness in his eyes.

And now, he was trying to woo her once again.

Alexis reached up to caress his face, her fingers tracing his features delicately. After a moment, she chuckled. “Do you Like that?"

Leonel caught her wandering hand and replied, "I do, but remember, we're running late for our appointment."

Watching him closely, Alexis murmured playfully, “What if we head to the hotel now? I could always reschedule my appointment with the therapist."

Leonel found her words incredibly enticing.

In the bustling yard where servants frequently passed, the risk of being noticed was high, but Leonel seemed oblivious as he discreetly slipped his hand under Alexis' clothes...

Their kisses deepened as he caressed her tenderly.

After a brief moment, Leonel whispered into her ear with a mischievous tone, "You lied to me again!"

Although Alexis wasn't particularly stirred, he wasn't ready to break away just yet.

She grasped his hand to halt his advances and murmured firmly, "Enough! We need to go!"
