Alexis... he's also betting on the fact that you'll soften! He's pushing himself towards a dead end on purpose!” Leonel set everything up and was waiting patiently.

Leonel was seated opposite them.
The Smith family had already decided to rid themselves of Leonel once they secured the investment.
Leonel was composed and calm, unlike his assistant, who was basically shaking in his boots and glancing at the clock almost every minute.
Vanessa was extremely disappointed. She believed Leonel had potential and was promising, but now he had somehow managed to endanger himself...
Vanessa spoke softly. “This is it. The official contract. Mr. Douglas, you can go ahead and sign it now.” Leonel accepted the documents.

Alexis stood at the entrance.
“Stop!” Alexis was in her pajamas, and on her feet were indoor slippers. She ignored the looks she was being given and walked over to Leonel, bending to grab his hand gently.
Leonel watched her silently, taking in every inch of her.
