After Divorce Billionaire Ex Found Me Pregnant (Leonica and Gabriel) novel Chapter 98

Showdown With The Deal 

But his case aside, he was pretty sure Angelina wouldn’t be making it to the doors of heaven. Not being judgmental or anything, but the chick had a screw lose in her head. 

“Alright. Tell me, what is it you want?” He asked. 

“For us to get married Gabriel and leave our lives outside of Oslo, Norway in general. Let’s start afresh without anyone in our lives. Just you and I, can you give me that?” She asked with an expectant smile, but the moment she caught the trace of hesitation across Gabriel’s face, the smile completely vanished. “Of course you can’L” She said and without hesitation, pressed the red button atop the detonator. 

Leonica had just managed to get Ashley out moments before that. Luckily, the boy had slept through all of the kidnapping, only waking up at the sound of Owen forcefully prying the latch window open 

The relief was evident on his face and he clung to his mother until they had gotten out of the house and closer to their car, when the loud explosion suddenly sounded out from behind them. 

Leonica’s head whipped around at the sound. Seeing the house which had once been fine, now overrun with fire, the remaining surviving woods slowly crumbling under the intensity of the fire, her eyes widened with panic. 

More so when she looked around and realizes that Gabriel hadn’t made it out yet! 

Aftermath Of The Flames. 

Leonica eyes remained glued to the hunting house, freen stint in place, even after Overn ticked Ashley in the hack seat and came back for her, leading her towards the passinger seat and whispering to her that everything was going to be alright and for now, he’d drive she and Ashley some for safety The moment his hands released her to pull opens the door, the spell had broken and the world around her began to make sense again. 

Owen was about to open the door, intending to lead her in when Leunica’s hand caught his. He turned to look at her with a confused gaze 

“What are you doing?” He asked. 

“He’s still in there.” Came her reply. “He’s in there. I’m some of it.” She repeated sternly and broke out of his hold. 

“Len… Leonica, where are you going,” Owen said amb chased after her, standing in her path to block her. 

At lowes like this, Leonka cursed the fact that the younger buy had somehow grown taller than her. 

“Get out of my way.” She demanded. 

“You’re not thinking rationally.” Owen countered. “If you walk in there you’ll get hurt, or worse, die. Do you want Ashley to live with a sense of guilt that all this was his fault? Cause that’s what your about to do.” 

“Ashley would understand, because right now, I have time save his father.” She said and without another word, pushed past Owen. 

Las close as she could to the house and 

She rushed towards the burning house, ignoring Owen’s calls for her. In ainatter of seconds, she had putten as brought the door down with one bit from a sturdy wood she had picked up nearby, 

Tying a piece of her cloth around her nose, she stepped into the burning building 

“Gabriel Gabriel, where are you?!” She called out and coughed into her list while trying to navigate her way in the part of the building that was yet to touched by the fire but covered in smoke 

It wasn’t until bec lungs were about to burst and the heat was beginning to cause her skin to blister, that she heard the faint cough coming from a place not to far from where she presumed had once been the living room. 

Quickly making her way over, she found him, lying face flat on the flour, unconscious and beside him was Angelina, crying as she tried to wake him up Leonica wasted no time and went towards him, not minding the fact that the fire was eating through her pants. 

“What have you done?” Leonica questioned after shaving Angelina aside and quickly turned Gabriel over, hoping he was unharmed. 

Sadly, not all wishes come true. 

“It wasn’t my fault… The bomb. It didn’t go off as planned.. And he.. He shielded me when the whole thing went sideways and…” Angelina made a mess of her words as she tried to explain to Leonira who was currently staring in horror at the wound in Gabriel’s lower abdomen with a piece of wood sticking out. 

“Shit!” Leonica cursed. She didn’t need to be a doctor to know the situation was dire. 

Without thinking twice, she pulled off her upper layer, leaving herself in a sleeveless undershirt. She wrapped Gabriel’s wound as best she could and tried her best not to cry as she lifted him in her arms and began dragging him out. 

Her tears eventually fell when she realized the journey was still a long way to go and the probability of escaping was slowly becoming thin. Admits the discouraging realization, she spotted Angelina who was still sitting there, staring at where Gabriel had laid with a guilty gaze, 

“Help me,” Leonica requested, not expecting the woman to actually oblige her. 

Surprisingly, she did, and despite the small weight difference between the two females, the task became much easier for them. 

The moment they step foot out of the burning house, firemen and paramedics ambushed them, talding Gabriel from their hold and leading them both further away. 

As much as Leonica had been surprised to see them, she has been much more relieved. As she watches the paramedic rush to tend to Gabriel’s w she couldn’t help but wonder how they had gotten bere 

wounds, 

Had they been alerted from the explosion? Not likely. The explosion hadn’t been big enough to alert fire fighters towards a house that was situated on the top of a private valley, isolated from the rest of the world. 

As she pondered the question, the comer of her yes caught Owen fighting his way under the yellow tape and re 

I rushing towards her. 

He slowed his steps at her side and examined her for any bodily harm. Except for the few minor burns on her arms and lower leg, everything seemed tine. 

How did they get here? Leonica asked, finally volcing out her question. 

“Me.” Owen simply answered and the way his eyes were lixated on a distance gave her an idea of what had happened. “I called them, after all, there’s no way you can handle a fire on your own.” He explained and finally tore his eyes from the distance, turning to look at her. “what you did was stupid.” He scolded, much to his surprise, she didn’t retort anything back and simply stared at him. 

“What happened to knowing the difference between being brave and stupid? Knowing when and when not to play hero? Oven questioned and the longer she remained silent, the more he grew ads 

“Lunica, talk to me, please.” He beppel. 

Although he had begged for her in speak, the next words she said wasn’t exactly what he wanted. 

‘Even aber all those years, I’m still these selfish girl you knew.‘ 

The storm after the entire incident har slowly died down
