All Chapters of Replacement Love (El Fuego Series 1) (ENGLISH VERSION): Chapter 71 - Chapter 80

ALLYS POV "I love you. I love you so damn much, Allys. You are the only woman who has ever made me feel this kind of intense love. I love you," he said, then kissed me. After we finished showering, we got dressed together. I was standing in front of the full-length mirror inside his walk-in closet, running my fingers through my long hair. I gently bit my lips to make them look redder, and it worked perfectly. "You ready?" Leon asked, leaning against the doorframe. I turned to look at him and nodded quickly. I saw his gaze travel down my body, and then he frowned. "Damn! I told Lucas to pick decent clothes. Is this what he considers decent?" he muttered as he grabbed a black coat from one of the cabinets. I was surprised when he draped it over my shoulders, clearly wanting me to wear it. I couldn't help but furrow my brows at him. What was his problem? I thought I looked fine! I was wearing a black strapless mini dress. It actually suited me very well, making my fair skin stand

MELDRID POV Just like the man said, Leon really wasn't home last night. I leaned back against my seat, exhausted, after parking right outside his company building. I slowly got out and looked up at the towering structure. They better not tell me their boss isn't here again. What has he been doing these past few days? Whenever I call him, he doesn't even bother to answer. I slammed the car door shut arrogantly and walked straight inside. The security guards and some employees in the lobby immediately greeted me. I headed straight for the 40th floor, where Leon's office was located. As soon as the doors opened, I saw his secretary sitting right outside his office. She seemed to notice my arrival and quickly stood up, bowing slightly. "Good morning, Miss Alcantara," she greeted. "Where is your boss?" I asked, glancing at his closed door. "Mr. Mondragon is inside, Miss," she replied. I smiled at her answer. Good, at least he was here now. "Thank you, Lindsy," I said and walked

MELDRID POV "W-What are you talking about, Leon? Do we really need to be in a relationship just for you to have time for me?" I asked, feeling humiliated as I could hear the whispers and feel the eyes of his employees on me. "I-if that's what you want, then we can be in a relationship. You know I like you, right? I have for a long time," I added desperately. I saw him just furrow his brows at me. "Come on, Leon. Don't humiliate me like this in front of your employees. They all know we've known each other for years. What's more, they know that the only thing missing between us is making it official." He took a deep breath, looking as if I was just adding more weight to his problems. Why was he acting like this? He was being so strange! "I don't have time for you, Meldrid. And besides, I already have a girlfriend, and you know very well who she is. So why are you doing this now? Can't you just show us some respect?!" The murmurs around us grew louder, and I felt so ashamed that I

ALLYS POV "O-What else did you hear, Lita?" I asked nervously. My mind was racing, trying to think of excuses I could use if she really had heard everything. Surely, they would ask why Leon called me by that name. Why did it have to be Lita who heard us? Out of all the maids in the mansion, she was the most talkative and had the biggest mouth. "That was all I heard, Miss Mariel. After I heard you say you were going to cook something delicious for Sir Leon, I immediately came here to the kitchen and told Nanay Tessy," she explained at length, and I breathed a sigh of relief. So she didn't hear that part. I thought for sure she had heard Leon mention my real name. Good thing she didn't. Nanay Tessy must have noticed my anxiety earlier, so she immediately scolded Lita. "Don't ever do that again, Lita. You know it's very rude to eavesdrop on other people's conversations, especially your employers! What if Señorito Leon had seen you earlier? You would have been fired on the spot," Na

LEON POV After eating the delicious meal Allys brought here to her room, we are now lying together on her bed. I really love the scent of her room because it smells exactly like her. I gently caressed her hair while she hugged me and slept peacefully on my chest. In my entire life, I have never felt this kind of feeling before. You know that feeling when you are just genuinely happy with what you have right now. That feeling where everything in your life feels complete and enough simply because you are with the person you love. I am happy just like this, having her by my side. She moved a little, so I looked down at her. She looks like an angel to my eyes. Her body feels so soft that I feel like if I don't hold her carefully, I might hurt her. She looks like a precious crystal to me—a fragile gem that I must protect and take care of with my life. I love her very much. So this is what it feels like to truly love someone. Even if you are exhausted and tired from everything happeni
