A Second Chance With My Billionaire Love
Chapter 3761

Alexis and Leonel locked eyes, their eyes revealing a mix of complex emotions.

It was the first time they had experienced such close contact since Leonel announced he had a girlfriend.

After a moment, Alexis regained composure and asked, “Why didn’t you bring your girlfriend?”

Leonel inquired, “Would you prefer if I brought her along?”

Alexis remained silent.

She believed speaking too much would reveal her inability to move on, especially with so many people present.

Leonel chose not to push further.

He suggested Edwin take his place while he attended to his little girl.

Despite his attempts to maintain composure, his leg proved troublesome.

He even found it challenging to stand, let alone carry Cordelia.

Alexis noticed something amiss.

Taking Cordelia from him, she remarked casually, “Is your gout flaring up badly? You should really consider getting proper treatment.

Enduring the pain isn’t good for you.

”

Leonel’s fingers tightened as he felt the warmth lingering in his hand.

He questioned, “Do you still care about me?”

Alexis was at a loss for words.

Staring at her face, Leonel asked, “How have you been lately? I heard you’re going on a blind date.

Have you found someone suitable?”

He had posed this question countless times.

Suddenly, Alexis grasped the reality of their numerous breakups.

She cast her eyes downward and chuckled softly.

“If I find someone, I’ll be sure to inform you.

”

Leonel tenderly caressed his left leg and murmured, “I’ll offer my blessings when that time comes.

”

Their exchange felt rather dull.

Still, Edwin listened attentively, to the point where he lost the game of chess.

Brushing it off as just an off day, he insisted on another round and requested a rematch.

Marcus gathered the pieces and scoffed.

“Even if we played ten more rounds, you’d still lose! What’s the point of being stubborn?”

At that moment, Edwin suddenly turned to Leonel with a smile and remarked, “Leonel, Marcus was referring to me just now.

He certainly wasn’t talking about you.

”

Leonel frowned, feeling a sense of helplessness wash over him.

He could tell that the two men were mocking him.

Fortunately, Waylen descended the stairs at that moment, accompanied by the servants who were prepared to serve dinner.

The atmosphere during dinner was somewhat awkward, with everyone lost in their own thoughts.

After dinner, as Leonel prepared to leave, Evelyn couldn’t resist running over to him and handing him a pink hot water bottle.

“Use this, Daddy,” she said earnestly.

“It’ll help with your leg pain.

”

Leonel accepted it, his eyes brimming with emotion.

Wanting to avoid disappointing his child, he replied, “Alright, thank you.

”
