Chapter 3571
Surprised and hopeful, Leonel listened as Alexis continued with a slight smile, “Anika visited my office yesterday.
She mentioned you didn’t want to see her, so she came to me instead! Leonel, I’m not concerned with what exactly went on between you two, but it’s clear Anika is quite upset lately.
Since you started it, it might be best if you resolve things with her… I don’t want any issues endangering me or my children.
”
Leonel responded quickly, “I’ve already ended things with her.
”
“There’s no need to explain, Leonel.
Honestly, if it weren’t for the kids, I’d hope you two could find happiness together,” Alexis replied, her tone indifferent.
She continued flipping through the journal and mentioned in a casual tone, “Evelyn and Daniel are upstairs waiting for you.
Help yourself.
”
Leonel gave her a long look before standing and making his way upstairs.

After dropping the kids off at the Fowler residence on Sunday, Leonel drove downtown.
Upon her arrival, Anika was taken aback.
She longed to rush into Leonel’s arms and ki*s him like old times…
Her infatuation with Leonel was a well-kept secret.
He embodied everything she had ever wanted.
Yet, Leonel avoided her advances with a cool detachment.
He gently pushed Anika aside and took a seat on the sofa, resting his hands on his knees while fixing her with an intense gaze.
Feeling let down, Anika closed the door softly behind her.
She smoothed out her dress and managed a strained smile.
“You’ve finally agreed to see me! Have you spoken to Alexis?”
As Leonel pulled out a pack of cigarettes and was about to Light one, his eyes caught sight of a man’s coat on the sofa.
It was a coat he recognized as his own from a previous visit.
Noticing his focus, Anika glanced at the coat and gave a rueful smile.
“I know what you’re thinking.
You want to break things off with me so you can chase after her again.
You’re hoping to reconcile with her, aren’t you? But Leonel, think about how many times you’ve been here and how much we’ve hung out.
She definitely knows about us.
We’ve been over for two months, even though we didn’t really slept together.
Don’t tell me you still expect her to think you’re innocent though.
Wake up.
I bet she despises you and finds you disgusting!”
Anika spat out the words, her

voice tinged with bitterness.
She lit a cigarette, and after taking a few drags, she said sarcastically, “I’ve lost everything.
My career’s a mess, and even my family and friends look down on me for getting involved with a married man.
But it doesn’t matter.
At least I still have you, Mr.
Douglas… You’ve been dumped by your wife, and your kids can’t stand you.
Compared to my mess, you’re struggling even more, right? You used to have it all.
”
Leonel looked at her with a cold gaze, his eyes void of any emotion.
In that moment, Anika and he were nothing more than arch enemies.
Yet men often acted more ruthlessly than women.
Leonel was determined to settle everything once and for all.Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.
He exhaled a cloud of smoke slowly, and then said casually, “If you leave Duefron and go back to your hometown, I’ll arrange for someone to marry you, Anika.
That’s the last thing I can do for you.
”
Shocked, Anika asked, “You expect me to marry someone else?”
