Leonel leaned back, cursing, “What a traitor!”

But Marcus knew he wasn’t blaming the driver.

“He means well, you know,” Marcus said with a grin.

“So, what’s your plan now? Don’t you wanna see Cordelia, huh? I saw her last night and held her in my arms; she is as cute as a button!”

Leonel’s heart raced at Marcus’ mention of Cordelia.

But he played it cool.

Gently touching the sofa arm, he hesitated before asking, “Your sister, she…”

Marcus glanced at him.

“Alexis? She’s doing well, too.

Although, she is still single! My parents are trying to set her up.

She’s open to it if they click.

Leonel’s heart sank at the news.

Still, he acted indifferent.

“Makes sense.

Life’s short.

Better find someone sooner.

Marcus watched him closely, puffing his cigarette.

After finishing, he stood up.

“You’re right, stubborn idiot!”

He chuckled.

After a pause, he then continued, “Well, I’ve brought you the things, so mission accomplished! I’ll be off to report to my wife.

Melissa’s all worried about you.

It makes me jealous!”

With that, Marcus departed.

Leonel fired up the car engine.

Marcus had been visiting less lately.

Right after the accident, he’d drop by almost every other day, always saying something to rile Leonel up.

At first, Leonel didn’t like it.

No guy wants to expose his miserable side to others.

But he later just got used to it.

Sometimes, while the doctor massaged him, Marcus would just sit there quietly.

Despite the car accident, Leonel did return to the Fowler house.

He’d said if he split with Alexis, it was for good.

Since Alexis was considering seeing someone else, why bother her again?

After Marcus left, Leonel stayed home for a week, for no reason really.

Then he had to go out for a big project’s signing ceremony.

It was to be hosted at a fancy business club.
