After Divorce Billionaire Ex Found Me Pregnant (Leonica and Gabriel) novel Chapter 144

She paused and her mind placed two and two together. 

Someone who looked exactly like her deceased brother and the family of course it all made sense! 

Rodrigo was trying to swipe the family fortune out of her hand! 

“Who am I? Am your brother, Leonica.” The lookalike repeated. 

“Melvin is dead.” She said the words as if to reassure herself that he was. 

“So, you really thought that, huh?” 

“What?” 

“You’ve got no idea what the hell is going on.” 

Leonica glared at him. “I don’t think I’d expect to know anything when I was never informed of your revival.” She stepped forward, wishing that her heat didn’t waver in the face of a familiar figure. “Why did you come here?” 

The lookalike smiled, that very same vague smile that never truly reached his eyes. “How about we go somewhere else and discuss that. 

“1 

“Go somewhere?” She mimicked, tilting her head to the side to scan him. After a few seconds, she nodded. “Alright, let’s talk in my 

office.” 

With that, she turned around and began walking towards the elevator. Her brother’s lookalike followed behind her in a quiet state, only after they had stepped into the elevator did he talk. 

“You haven’t changed one bit.” 

“Don’t talk to me like your my brother. I know Rodrigo put you up to this.” 

“Uncle Rodrigo?” He chuckled. “He didn’t put me up to nothing Leo. I just thought it was about time I came back.” 

“About time you came back?” Leonica chuckled humorlessly at his words. “What, did you think you were on some sort of Vacation? Fourteen years, Melvin, we all thought you were dead. Mom spiraled into depression because-” She paused. “Fuck, why the hell am I talking to you like you’re my brother.” She muttered as the elevator dinged open. 

“But I am.” Melvin followed behind her, stopping her by the arm just as they reached the door leading into her office. “I am Leonica.” 

“Well I apologize if I don’t believe you, last I checked, dead men don’t walk. Now, unless you-” The rest of her words trailed off as Melvin pulled up the sleeve of his shirt, exposing the faded scar that Leonica found all too familiar. 

It was the exact same scar Melvin had gotten when he tried fighting off bullies for her. 

She stared breathlessly at it. 

“It is me, Leonica.” He stepped forward, looking deep into her eyes. “Not some lookalike.” 

“Let’s talk in here.” Turning around, she opened the door to her office and stepped inside. 

Melvin examined where once used to be his father’s office and smiled. “You remodeled.” 

TWant My Birthright 

“Father had it remodeled to my taste,” Came her cold reply as she sank into one of the couches and waited till he had sat before she asked. “Now, what do you want?” 

“My birthright.” Melvin answered with all seriousness, watching as his sister’s brows creased. 

“What?” 

He took a moment to look around. “This, I want this company, my birthright.” 

Leonica stared speechless at him for a few seconds before laughing. “Now you’re just crazy.” Standing up, she pointed at the door.” Now get out.” 

“Leonica-” 

“How dare you show up after years, and demand what, your birthright. Get out Melvin, while I am asking nicely.” 

He hesitated, but just as he was about to stand up, there was a knock on the door and Leonardo walked in. 

He froze the moment he spotted Melvin. “What-” He began but Leonica walked past him, cutting him off. 

“I have a meeting to attend.” She didn’t, she just didn’t know how to feel after learning that the brother she thought was dead was actually alive and was now demanding the company. “Please see to it that he’s escorted out.” 

With that, she walked way, allowing Leonardo to fix his attention on the person in front of him. “You,” 

“Hey Leonardo,” Melvin smiled at his best friend as he stood up. “It’s good to see you again. Have you been well?” 

“What the hell is the meaning of this?” Leonardo questioned. 

“Nothing that needs to concern you, ah, but on second thought, I guess it should, see as you’re now part of the Romero family. My family.” 

Leonardo swallowed the lump that rested in his throat as Melvin walked closer and placed hand on his shoulder. 

“I’ve watched you over the years Leonardo. You’ve done a good job up until now. However, from here on forward, I’ll take care of everything, both the company and my family,” The smile on Melvin’s lips dropped. “So back off.”
