After Divorce Billionaire Ex Found Me Pregnant (Leonica and Gabriel) novel Chapter 48

Firstly, If there was anyone that needed to come clean, it was him. She on the other hand, had nothing to say to him, nor was she going to explain any of her actions, both past and present, to him. 

Then secondly, if he believes threatening her with the court was going to make her bite whatever bait he was putting out, then he was so wrong. 

“Don’t make me laugh Gabriel,” Folding her arms across her chest and shifting her weight onto her other hand, she continued. “We both know you didn’t call me he 

just to hear me talk about my past actions and plead guilty. So drop the threat bullshit and go straight to the real point. What the fuck do you want?” 

“I want you to apologize.” 

His sudden response totally caught Leonica off guard. 

Apologize? She? To who? Him? 

Parting her lips, she was about to question his response when Gabriel spoke again. “The real reason why I called you here, is because I want To provide MY son with a complete family,” His gaze briefly fell to the table. “A mother and father, I mean.” He leaned forward, fixing her with a stern gaze. “And for that to happen, I want you to apologize to Angelina for all the crap. you’ve done. Earn her forgiveness.” 

After his words, Gabriel watched as Leonica became speechless, lips parting for a split second before she clammed them back shut, scrunched her face up, looked to the side, blink once, then twice, then a final time before scoffing loudly. 

“I think I misheard you. Did you just say you want ME to apologize to Angelina and earn her forgiveness?” Leonica questioned his Ludacris statement with a crocked smile. 

However, when he remained silent, the smile faded and in seconds, she had stomped around the table and way beside him. 

“Was that a sick joke?” she asked, anger quickly rising to the surface of her visage as she stared down at Gabriel’s calm expression. 

“No.” Gabriel plainly replied which earned a loud, disbelief filled scoff, accompanied by smile that faded as quickly as it had come. 

you 

“Yah, Gabriel Bryce, who the hell do you think you are?” Reaching across the table, she snatched up the brown file. “Threatening me with this?” She tossed it on Gabriel’s chest with a snort. “Know your place, business prodigy or not, I won’t hesitate to show 

you where belong the next time you open that mouth of yours and ask me to apologize to that tramp. Gabriel’s eyes twitched, evidently becoming enraged by her statement, but still choosing to remain calm. 

“You can take that to the ministry of social affairs for all I care. But word of advice, bare it in the back of your mind that Ashley, belongs with me and nothing you do can change that, Gabriel.” 

And that was the one which broke the Camel’s back. 

Slamming his palm on the table, Gabriel rose out of his chair, quickly towering over Leonica and looking down at her with a glare. 

She wasn’t fazed, rather seeing him looking so aggravated brought a genuine smile to her lips and before he could speak, she questioned. “What? Don’t tell me you’re planning on hitting me 

again.” 

The last part, no doubt, had struck a chord with Gabriel, his body becoming stiff at the 

inention. 

He didn’t know if she had meant to mention it, but it had been said and there was no taking it back. 

Not H Som 

“So, what are you going to do, hm?” Leonica pressed on, taking a step closer. 

Compared to how panicked she seemed in her car ten minutes ago, she was a completely different person. 

Guest like pep talks really do work. 

“What’s the matter Gabriel?” She continued, now standing close enough to press her body against his, a taunting smile on her lips as she raised her head and met his eyes. “Don’t tell me those little words I just said hurt your ego real bad.” 

Flexing his jaws, hands clenching at his side, Gabriel tried to control his temper. “Leonica,” He warned. 

“That’s me, you asshole, got a problem.” 

At that moment, Gabriel felt his control over his action slip. 

The very next second, Leonica felt her breath hitch as her back was pinned against the nearest wall. She tried to move her hand but it was already being held above her head by one of Gabriel’s hand. She was in the middle of struggling for freedom when she realized how their bodies were and instantly froze. 

✓ close 

Gabriel to had realized, resulting in his minutes long silence as his eyes searched hers up close. 

“Gabriel?” 

Both their heads whipped towards the door direction at the sound of a voice that was all to familiar to their ears. 

At the threshold of the door, Angelina stood, hurt written all over her face. 

They had been engrossed in the heat of their argument to have noticed the door open. 

“Gabe…what…?” 

It only took Gabriel a matter of seconds to step away from Leonica’s pinned figure and be by Angelina’s side, the brunette’s gaze however, lingered on Leonica who was massaging her wrist and when she caught her stare, she flashed her a smirk. 

“Ange, what are you doing here?” Gabriel questioned. 

“…” Peeling her gaze away from Leonica, fuming inwardly with anger, she continued. “My friend and I, we came to have dinner, but the receptionist wouldn’t stop going on about how she saw you here, so…I thought I’d…” Her speech trailed off. 

Gabriel was about to urge her to finish her sentence when she suddenly asked. “Gabriel, is…is. that what I think it is?” 

Following her line of sight, the male nearly smacked himself upside up, when he spotted the paternity file lying in plain sight. 

Not HK Son 

“Ange I can explain.” 

The brunette held up her shaky index finger at his words, slowly taking steps towards the file that had caused a look of hurt to befall her angelic features. 

Leonica made no effort to stop her and neither did Gabriel, after all, he knew that sometime would come when he’d have to tell her the truth about Ashley. 

If he indeed wanted to provide Ashley with a complete family, it was obvious that he needed to end his engagement with Angelina sooner or later. 

The thought, or rather, obvious truth, made Gabriel’s face scrunch up a bit. He didn’t like the idea…yet he also wasn’t totally against it. 

While he was lost deep in his thoughts, Angelina had peeled the file off the table and opened it, silently reading through it. 

Leonica didn’t care for her opinion and was about to leave, when much to both of their surprise, Angelina broke down in tears…with a smile on her lips. 

out of her 

The tears that were rushing eyes, were tears of joy. 

Allowing the file fall from her hand, she rushed at Gabriel and engulfed him in a tight hug. 

“Gabe, you had be scared for a second.” She pulled back and peppered his cheek with kisses.” But that doesn’t matter now, since The paternity file says Ashely isn’t your son.”
