Chapter 3543
Noreen didn’t press the matter any further.
Lost in thought, she remembered how, even in the early days of the company, Leonel was more cautious with these social events… Back then, he had a good thing going with Alexis and he had cared more about his health.
But now…
In her reverie, she spotted Alexis and James heading their way, deep in conversation.
Looked Like they’d just wrapped up a business dinner.
Actually, it was James who’d asked Alexis for a favor.
With everything sorted, he couldn’t thank her enough, saying, “Alexis, I owe you big time.
Really appreciate it!”
“Eh, it’s no biggie,” Alexis replied casually.
But then, she froze, catching sight of Leonel…
He was in a crisp white shirt, looking quite dashing.
He had a cigarette in hand but he was struggling to light it.
Leonel must have noticed Alexis’ gaze but who knew what was going on in his head.

After a long stare, Alexis muttered quietly, “Let’s go.
”
James, taken aback, quickly agreed, “Sure.
Let me walk you to your car.
”
As they passed Leonel, James nodded politely…
But in the blink of an eye, Leonel grabbed Alexis’ hand and pinned her against the wall.
“Let me go, Leonel!” Alexis shouted as she struggled against his grip.
Ignoring her protests, Leonel held her firmly against the wall.
In the dim corridor light, his eyes blazed red with intensity.
He demanded, “Why are you with James? You’re out on a date with him, but won’t even look at me.
Why?”
Unable to break free, Alexis met his gaze with icy disdain.
“I hate the way you’re looking at me right now!”
Leaning in close, Leonel whispered in Alexis’ ear, then ki*sed her before she could push him away.
Despite her struggles, he held her hands with one and tilted her chin with the other, forcing her to accept the ki*s.
“Are you crazy, Leonel?!” Alexis muttered.
“Yes, I’m crazy… I just can’t take it anymore, Alexis… Does it hurt? I’m in agony right now.
”
Finally, James and Noreen snapped out of their daze.
James gathered his courage and intervened.
“Hey, calm down, Leonel.
ki*sing like that’s not cool, man! We’re in public.
Show some restraint!”
He tried to pull Leonel away, but got shrugged off violently.
James froze in place, not daring to try again.
Leonel buried his face in Alexis’ neck, breathing heavily.
Finally, he looked up at her and asked, “Why can’t I ki*s my own wife?”
Alexis, also breathless, had blood on her lips – Leonel’s blood, from when she bit him just now.This content provided by N(o)velDrama].[Org.
