Ha, what a Prick
If Leonea didn’t know any better, she would have thought those annoying reporters had interrupted serne part of his ch beart melting speech, but nope, she knew they didn’t. Or at least she was eighty percent sure they hadn’t interrupted anything important. Gabriel was just that type of person, so she didn’t really take his words to heart
At least that’s what she told herself as she sunk down into the couch, grabbed the remote and turned the television on, ready to search for Ashley’s
vorite carton. The box set blared to life with sounds from the news station she had been watching early yesterday before her hair stylist has arrived
It was a press conference of some sort going on. Leonica was just about to change it when one of the reporters asked
“Mr. Bryce, could you please explain the situation at hand?”
The name mentioned stopped her from changing the channel more than the question asked had. She watched as the angle of the camera changed and Gabriel was shown, dresses in different clothing than two hours ago when they had met at the hospital and beside him, was Bill. They both stood on a podium, flashing lights from the press’s cameras making things seem intimidating to Leonica even though she did stuff like this more than she attended her gym sessions.
“Mr. Bryce, please give a statement on the situation. Are the accusations being paid against Leonica Romero, your supposed ex wife, true?”
Ah, the press for you, they always have their ways in their research and history digging. Shaking her head at the thought, some part of her mind begged Leonica to change the channel and continue on with her day like she hadn’t seen this conference happening. But the other half, the half that seemed to be controlling most of her body’s decision making, begged her to leave it be and before she knew it, she was actually watching the press conference play
“..I admit that the accusations being made against Leonica are false. She was not the reason why I ended my engagement with Angelina Fernandez and she is not the offender in the recent pictures that have been causing strange rumors to spread across the internet. These two things I’ve just listed were entirely. My fault.” Gabriel confessed and the very next second, the entire press location erupted in whispers, murmurs and camera flashes and clicks. All the reporters present scurried to get what Gabriel had just said down on papers and official recordings.
While all that happened, Leonica stared wide eye at the television, to in shock to make an actual reaction, yet one thought roamed her mind.
Had THE Gabriel Bryce just admitted to his wrong doing on camera? Even when he was very much aware that it could affect the stocks of his company? Leonica blinked. As unbelievable as it sounded, it was true. Gabriel has just confessed he was in the wrong, but why? Was it because of the heat the press has put on her earlier on?
Or was it because he didn’t want to seem like the black sheep; keeping quiet when Arvan and Owen, who weren’t even involved in this scandal, has given speeches each of their own?
