After Divorce Billionaire Ex Found Me Pregnant (Leonica and Gabriel) novel Chapter 20

He looked around, his head dizzy, adjusting to the darkness. 

eye 

‘When did it get so dark?‘ He wondered. 

“Gabe,” 

The familiar voice reached his ears, the voice sounding distant and faint, as if he was being called from somewhere far away. 

“Gabriel.” The voice came yet again, and this time, he recognized it. 

It belonged to Leonica. 

Standing up from the Stoll he wasn’t even aware he had been sitting on, Gabriel surveyed his surroundings, trying to see through the darkness. Suddenly, one part of the darkness gave way, opening up the path to a field filled with purple irises and in the center of it, was Leonica. 

She was dressed in a simple white gown, her long wavy white hair dancing softly in the breeze as she faced the other way, humming a calming tone to the sleeping child in her arms. 

New Threat Has Arden. 

Her hums stopped once she sensed his presence. Turning around to see him, she smiled and 

extended one of her free hand. 

“Gabriel.” She called out to him once again, and as if on autopilot, Gabriel moved, taking a step forward towards her. 

He glanced down at the sleeping child in her arms as he approached and although he couldn’t see the child’s face, Gabriel felt a strong connection to the child. Almost…almost as if it was 

his. 

“Come on Gabe, we’re waiting.” Leonica encouraged and his feet began to move faster, but just before he could reach where she was standing, darkness engulfed her entire being. 

“Leonica,” Gabriel called out to her, however, his call remained unanswered. 

And then, behind him, another scene opened up. This time around it was just a white bulb hanging above a white door. Gabriel slowly approached the door, hearing the quiet sobs of a woman from inside. 

As soon as he opened the door, he gulped upon seeing a pale looking Leonica seating on a hospital bed. The sobs ceased as soon as his presence was spotted. 

Slowly, her head turned in his direction, blood shot eyes glaring at him. “Look what you’ve done.” She muttered. 

Gabriel shook his head, slowly approaching the bed she sat on. Instead of responding to her accusations, he asked. “The baby, where is it? Where’s my child?” 

“You’re asking that now?” She scoffed faintly. “It’s gone, just like you wanted.” 

Hearing her words and remembering the exact same way she had said it at the banquet, Gabriel felt a tremendous amount of anger towards Leonica’s actions. 

How could she? 

Why did she? She had no right to take away his chance at fatherhood!
