Chapter 3781
Alexis smiled and nodded at him as she drove past a fountain and parked her car.
It had been raining all day.
It wasn’t the best weather for social calls or to butter someone up, but Alexis was there to pick up Leonel
anyway.
She knew he wouldn't be too happy about it, but she needed to show she still cared.
As soon as she stepped out of her car, rain soaked her because she didn’t bring her umbrella.
A servant hurried over with one and said, “Mrs.
Douglas, maybe you should just go!”
Looking toward the villa, the servant added in a low voice, “Miss Molina is here.
Miss Molina...
Hearing the servant mention her, Alexis wasn’t surprised.

She was a bit annoyed though.
Back in the day, she'd just leave.
But now, even with other women like Hester around, she wasn’t about to let them get in her way.
She gave a slight smile and asked, “Where's Leonel?”
The servant, seeing that Alexis wasn’t backing down, led her into the villa.
On the way, she whispered, “Mr.
Douglas is in the study! His leg would get particular painful in the rainy days.
Alexis gave a faint smile.
As they entered the hall, she saw Hester standing there.
Hester stood in the hallway like she owned the place, sizing up Alexis with a look that said, “Who let you in?”
The servant, a bit nervous, said, “Miss Molina, Mrs.
Douglas is here to see Mr.
Douglas.
Hester didn’t say a word at first.
She just stared at Alexis.
After a moment, she waved the servant away, “You can go.
I'll deal with Miss Fowler... Oh, and just so you know, she’s not ‘Mrs.
Douglas‘ anymore-Leonel and her are divorced.
The servant didn’t appreciate that remark, and even though she was scared of Hester, she snapped back, “Mr.
and Mrs.
Douglas have three kids together, so they'll always be linked.
They're family.
And correctif I'm wrong, Miss Molina, but you're not married to him yet, are you?”
Hester's face darkened at the servant's words.
Alexis, on the other hand, kept her cool and politely asked the servant, “I'm feeling a bit parched.

Would you mind makingsherbal tea?”
The servant nodded quickly.
“Of course! I'll get right on it.
I've still got your favorite blend.
Hester hated how Alexis and the servant seemed to get along so well.
Even though Leonel only kept her around to make things look good, Hester thought she could still win him over.
This was her shot at something big, and she wasn’t about to let Alexis ruin it.
When the servant left, Hester turned to Alexis and snapped, “Leonel doesn’t want to see you! Why'd you even
chere? You're a respectable woman, Miss Fowler.
Chasing after a man so desperately like this-it's beneath you.
Don’t you agree?”
Alexis settled into the sofa, casually brushing back her rain-damp hair.
After a moment, she looked up at Hester and replied with a relaxed tone, “It's my business! Have you got a
problem with that, Miss Molina?”
