She bumped into Leonel on the staircase. In the glow of the fancy chandelier, she gave him a cool look and said, Evelyn and Daniel are out cold! If you want to see the kids,e solo next time! Id rather they not catch wind of your little affair.


    Leonel shot her a derisive smirk. What are you babbling about? Anika and I are hitting up a work bash, and shes just my trantor.


    Clearly, he wasnt in the mood to spar with Alexis. With that, he ascended the stairs, briefly kising the kids before dashing back down with a stack of papers By the time he looked up, Alexis was nowhere to be seen, neither on the stairs nor in the living room.


    Hurrying down thest step, Leonel nced up, finding thending on the second floor deserted.


    As he settled back into the car, Anika leaned in, whispering, Did you two have an argument? Mr. Dous, I can exin things to your wife. We didnt do anything sketchy, right?


    Ignoring herpletely, Leonel tossed aside the documents and sparked up a cigarette, puffing away in silence.


    His nonchnce made Anika squirm but she dared notsh out.


    Belonging to N?velDrama.Org.


    Everything she had now came from Leonel the fame, thevish mansion She loved the high life, the attention from admirers. She didnt want to return to her old ways; she wanted more. She wanted to be Mrs.


    Dous.


    But that hinged on whether Leonel was willing to give that to her.


    She couldnt fathom Leonels intentions. He granted her every wish but never made a move on her, not even for a kis, let alone sx Sometimes, hed let her lean on him, caress her face gently, but the moment she hinted at more, hed just pull away.


    Anika was clueless about what Leonel was waiting for Clearly sour after dinner, Leonel was in a sulky mood. So Anika spoke up softly. Youve had a few too many, Mr. Dous. No ones going to look after you at a hotel. Why not crash at my ce? ll brew some coffee and give you a massage. Remember how much you enjoyed itst time? Anika expected him to decline as he always did, but he didnt this time.


    From the doorway to the living room, they stumbled and shared passionate kises With delicate hands, she undid his belt, ready to take it to the next level But Leonel stopped her abruptly.


    She gazed into his intense eyes, stunned.


    Ina t tone, Leonel said, Forget it.


    As he headed for the door, Anika embraced him from behind, whispering softly, Is it because Im not your type? Leonel, cant you just


    hold me, please? I just want you to take me, please! Leonel stood there, speechless at her words.


    Slowly, he turned to face her.
