Chapter 2612 Her eyes brimmed with tears.


    Alexis couldn''t help butment, “Edwin, you''re being too harsh. You seem to think Laura is weak and easy to push around.” To which Edwin responded casually, “I''m simply showing concern for her.” Everyone around the table was put off by this disy.

    Testing Leonel’s loyalty was not something Alexis desired.
