A Second Chance at Forever novel (Eleanor and Bernard)

Chapter 2526 Alexis lowered her gaze and called Leonel. He immediately picked up.

They both stayed silent for a couple of seconds.

Alexis spoke up after a while. “Leonel Douglas... End your cooperation with the Smith family.” “For who? Me or Edwin?" Alexis ignored his question and continued, “I'm certain you're aware of the consequences if you continue to work with the Smith family.” “I know that and I don’t care.” Leonel’s voice became gentle and soft. “Alexis... please come back. Just say you won't leave me again and I promise I will stop!” “And why exactly should I stay?” “Because you're in love with me... And you can't let me go. Sure, I'm a despicable person, but you of all people should understand. Haven't you ever wanted someone so badly that you were willing to do anything to keep them by your side? What I'm doing isn't even so crazy!” “This is what you learned at the Fowler family, Leonel?” “I learned way more than this” His voice was gentle.

After that, he hung up and texted her instead.
