Fearing Leonel’s anger, Nova quickly gathered the items back into the bag, preparing to haul it out to the yard.
But Leonel’s hoarse voice stopped her, “Put them down!”
The servants paused, confused by the sudden change in tone.
Leonel softened his voice further, “I need a moment alone.

Leaning back in her chair, Alexis replied in a teasing tone, “You really don’t know what | want?” She paused

Douglas, | don’t mind making it clear.
I'm moving in this Saturday, along with the kids.
