Chapter 2738 But Evelyn longed for Calvin's presence. Upon Alexis’ return, Evelyn could now request outings to visit Calvin.

Evelyn, being a straightforward child, harbored no ulterior motives in her words.

Retrieving the suitcase, Leonel overheard the conversation but remained silent. Tenderly, he reassured Evelyn, “Calvin is presently away from Duefron, but you'll have the chance to see him upon his return.” A tinge of disappointment shadowed Evelyn's expression.

Unable to resist, Alexis glanced up at Leonel. Despite his unchanging expression while lying, he efficiently handled the suitcase with one hand, cradling Evelyn in the other as they ascended the stairs.

Alexis remained momentarily stunned before exiting the car.

The early spring evening air carried a subtle chill.

Dim lighting filled the porch as a servant greeted Alexis and inquired, “Mrs. Douglas, shall we proceed with dinner?” Despite her weariness, Alexis, mindful that both Leonel and Evelyn had yet to dine, instructed, “Go ahead; serve the food.” The servant promptly arranged the table.

Gazing at her quietly, he inquired, “Are you planning to visit Calvin?" Alexis glanced at the clothes she held from where she had shed them.

After a moment, she questioned, “Are you seeking the truth or a fabrication?” In a husky tone, Leonel asserted, “The truth.” Facing him, Alexis hesitated before speaking. “Calvin doesn't have much time left. He doesn't have any family around, and even if there were, they're only interested in his millions. Leonel... I won't justify the difference between Calvin and Serenity, but I want you to know I didn’t wrong you during our time together.”
