Pregnant and Divorced, The Billionaire's Regret Chapter 131 The Feeling Of Bliss And Happiness.
In light of Owen’s discharge from the hospital, Leonica and Ashley had arranged a short trip to a once in a century festival that way taking place in the heart of Oslo.Throughout the ride towards Owen’s place, Ashley was hyper, bouncing up and down in the back seat. As much as Leonica wanted to lecture him on seating still, she opted not to, letting the child have his way for now.It was sort of a compensation for the way her decisions had messed up his life.Speaking of decisions, she thought as she adjusted her mirror above, fixing it so that she could see Ashley from behind.“Ash,” She called out, looking away from the room in time to see the child looking back at her on the mirror. “You okay, buddy?” She asked. “About your dad and I’s decision?” She added.Just like before, when she had explained the entire situation to him, Ashley flashed her a big smile. “I’m fine, mommy.” He re*ssured. “I understand mommy and daddy can’t be together and that doesn’t bother me, as long as you b

The doorbell above Mega-Me jingled as Leonica and Anastasia walked out, small carton of cake in the latter’s hand.“You sure this is perfect?” Anastasia questioned, visibly worried about the cake she had chosen for her mother. Her worry went as far as making her taking yet another peak into the cake box. Although the beautiful pink cherry cake was eye catching and definitely delicious, she wasn’t too sure it was her mother’s type.Bethany, her mother, was a bit, no, overly picky when it came to cakes.From beside her, Leonica sighed. “Anastasia, the cake’s fine. I know Bethany, she’s gonna love it.” She tried to re*ssure.But Anastasia just wasn’t buying it. She was about to take yet another worried look into the cake box and probably contemplate going back into Megan’s shop to swap the cake, or just ditch the cake idea in whole, when a familiar voice sounded out from in front of her.“Anastasia?”She raised her gaze from the cake box, a scowl appearing on her face when she saw that i

Shortly after her outburst, Anastasia had been led back into the Café and seated in a less crowded section, where Lloyd quietly sat with her and waited for her to calm down. When it seemed to him like she was getting more clear headed, he fetched her a gl*ss of water, substituting it for her spilled cup of decaf.“Feeling better?” He asked as he placed the gl*ss on the table, sliding it to her, all the while sliding into the seat across her.Anastasia caught the water, wrapping her hands around the gl*ss and seeking the usual warmth that her coffee provided. When the gl*ss remained warm, bland, she tore her gaze away fixing it on the side walk where she had been bumped, shoved.She was sure someone had shoved her. Or perhaps that was just her paranoid mind getting the better of her.Pulling her gaze away from the side walk, she took one huge gulp of the water, placed the gl*ss down and nodded, giving a belated answer to Lloyd’s question. “Yes, thank you.”He nodded and chooses to rema

Lloyd woke up the next morning to an empty bed side. He groaned and turned to the side, not entirely surprised to find that. But he was surprised to learn that the fact that Anastasia wasn't beside him when he woke up, troubled him.An unusual feeling for him seeing as he was always the first to get out of bed after s*x and even went as far as chasing his partners out of bed.He sat up, running his fingers through his hair as he recalled the previous night's events. They were blurry, but he knew they had both gotten drunk and things got a little out of hand, so much for them to end up in bed. But that wasn't bad, because they had both given consent for it and clearly enjoyed it.With a sigh, Lloyd stood up from the bed, deciding that first he would take a bath, and then try figuring out the rest of his day. But a note on his lamp side caught his attention. He reached for it, reading the neatly scribbled words.'Thanks for letting me crash the night. I'll see you around.'The letter re

*Splash!*Dream or no dream, Cold water soaked Leonica from head to toe. She gasped and tries to raise her young soaked body out of the small pond she had been shoved into, but her hand slipped on a few pebbles and she fell back in.In front of her, standing tall and proud, was her high school bully and his friends. They cackled amongst themselves, expressions of delight shimmering in their eyes.Just looking at their faces, Leonica felt her anger boiling. “Jamil, I swear to God, I’m going to get you back for this.” She threatened, the shrill in her voice exposing her youthful nature.The ring leader, Jamil, steppes forward and bent down, at least enough to meet her eye level. “You? Get me back?” His taunting words were followed by a loud laugh which reached his bright blue eyes. “Yeah right, Leonica. Even in a thousand years, a freak like you can’t do nothing.”Immediately after his words, Jamil received a harsh slap on the back of his head. He yelped in pain and turned around, ready

Leonica drove straight to her company after dropping Ashley off at his school. The moment she arrived on her company's premises, she took notice of the fleet of securities lined up by the entrance.Kennedy, who as usual, was waiting by the entrance for her, received her with a bow. “Good Morning, Ms. Romero.”“Morning Kennedy. What’s all this about?” She gestured towards the four men in black standing guard in front of the entrance. Before he could answer, they parted at the middle and Leonica watched a familiar figure walk towards her, hands tucked in his pocket.“Arvan,” She smiled, greeting him lightly. “I see you got yourself more trustworthy guards.”“The last ones were utter disappointments.” He wasn’t joking, seeing as his ex wife had been able to make her way into his house without him knowing. “How are you doing, Leonica?”“Best shape.” She offered him her best smile, but he did not fail to notice the dark circles underneath her eyes as they turned and headed Inside. “What ar

Owen walked along the busy halls of his current film set, having just finished recording a scene from his movie which was set to come out sometime in December. As he p*ssed the crew and extras, he greeted them with a nod or a wave, not failing to notice how the extras and some of the staff looked at him with admiration.It made him chuckle, realizing how far he had come from the small role of a high school boy that was just p*ssing by in the background.“Owen,”The sound of his name snapped him out of his thoughts and he turned, a smile automatically forming on his lips when he saw the source.“Alistair, what’s up?”His manager beckoned him over at his question, bringing his voice to a whisper when Owen got closer. “You got a call.”A call? Owen narrowed his eyes. Why was there any need to whisper over a call?“From who?” He asked.Alistair didn’t respond immediately. In fact, he didn’t respond at all and instead, he grabbed him by the wrist and pulled him along.They went into Owen’s

"The results so far shows that Ashley is doing great," Doctor Bailey's words rang out as he pointed at Ashley's newly printed medical chart.The said child, although not understanding much, stretched his neck to get a glimpse at what both his parents were so focused on."And his healing progress, how's that?" Leonica asked, tearing her gaze away from the chart and looking at Doctor Bailey."There's no problem. His bones seem to he healing and developing nicely, but," He paused and looked at Ashley, not sure if he should say what he wanted to in front of the young child.Gabriel, who was beside Ashley, got the hint and stood up. "Ashley, do you want to go get some ice cream?"The little boy's face lit up instantly. He looked to his mother for permission and Leonica nodded, allowing him to leave."Kennedy, please accompany the young master.""As you wish, ma'am." Kennedy bowed and held his hand out to Ashley, waiting for the boy to take it before they walked out."What's wrong, doctor?"

Anastasia had fallen asleep after her call with Megan, only to be awoken to the sound of someone knocking on her front door.Reluctantly, she slipped out of bed and made her way towards the front door and without checking who was at the door, opened it.When her eyes landed on the person standing in front of her, her expression switched from surprised to angry, then back to surprise, because she had not expected to see her mother standing in front of her door after so long.“At times I want to believe that you’re blind to my call, but then I see you winning all these cases on national Television and realize, oh wait, my daughter does have eyes.” Pushing her way into Anastasia’s apartment, Fiona dropped her purse and coat on the chair and turned to face her daughter. “Give me one good reason why you’ve been avoiding my calls?”“Didn’t Mason pass along my message?” Anastasia questioned, closing the door and heading to the kitchen to pour herself a glass of water.While doing so, she did

Whatever dark, alcohol induced thought that had been roaming Anastasia’s mind was dashed the moment she gave Lloyd the pass code to her apartment and instead of doing anything when he arrived at her room, he simply tucked her underneath the duvet and sighed.“You’re really a case.” He mumbled underneath his breath, but she clearly heard it, and just as he was about to turn around and leave, she caught his wrist.“You’re leaving? You’re not gonna do anything?” She had blurted out the question before she could control her own words and in seconds, she wished for the bed to open up and swallow her.Gosh, why had she said that?The alcohol, yeah, it is as definitely the alcohol!“Do you want me to stay?” Lloyd’s voice interrupted her thoughts. “Do you want me to stay, Anastasia?” He repeated when she remained silent.Her grip around his wrist loosened and Lloyd nodded.Of course she didn’t want him to stay. That was simply the alcohol in her system talking.Swallowing the bitter pill, he

Lloyd’s words had instantly sent Anastasia’s heart into an overdrive. Without even needing to focus on it, she could feel her heart beating hard against her chest, shaken up by his words, his proximity and the look in her eyes.And it scared her.Not Lloyd, but rather the familial pounding of her heart and the fluttering in her stomach, because she knew it all too well and it was a feeling she feared.It was the same feelings that had caused her unfortunate relationship with Derek.Those memories flashed within her mind and before Anastasia knew it, she had paled.Lloyd didn’t fail to notice this and in seconds, his expression changed into concern. But before he could say anything, she had broken free from his hold and stood up, walking towards her door and holding it open.“Get out.” She demanded.Lloyd was surprised by the sudden shift in her attitude. Just a few seconds ago, she seemed pissed at him, now the look in her eyes made it seem like she was trying to be on guard against h

Shrouded by the darkness her office provided after lights out, with her eyes glued to the bright screen of her laptop, Anastasia replayed the CCTV footage she had gotten from Danco.She studied the man’s movement, how he had approached Logan, his face shaded by the black hoodie he wore. She paused the video during moments of their interaction, trying to read the lips of Logan.It was clear he rejected at first. He even looked appealed by the idea. But then his eyes suddenly showed the interest that had sipped into his mind after heading something that he hooded figure had told him.What could it have been? Anastasia wondered as she watched the part of their interaction where Logan had indeed offered the hooded figure payment, in the form of raw cash, but he rejected, handed the drive over to Logan and walked out.Smartly, the hooded figure had walked in the opposite direction waiting until the attention on his had lessened before he came back and entered the black car, which belonged

“What?” Anastasia blinked in surprise after hearing what Logan had said. “He didn’t request for any money?”“Yes. As a matter of fact, it seemed like he was doing it not out of crude or hatred, but rather obligation. At first I thought something was wrong, I tried refusing it, trust me, but he insist and before I knew it, that bastard had dumped the concept and vanished.”Anastasia brows knitted together more. This wasn’t at all in the file that Kareem had given her. In fact, going back to what he had told her when briefing her about the case, he said the employee’s motive for selling the concepts was because they had gotten fired and had a personal grudge against the company.But that wasn’t the case, at least not from both sides.“And did you tell your attorney this or-““Yes, I have. I even explained the whole goddamn thing to Riley when his lawyer dropped by yesterday, but he refused to listen. He thinks I’m covering for the employee.” Logan sighed. “Look, I’m telling you the trut

Anastasia sat in the chair farest from Lloyd, listening to all his assistant had decided to tell her about the situation.Yes, she had accepted the job. Why? Well it was simple, the pay. The money that was offered for her to handle this case was more than enough to buy her a whole island.Who was she to turn down such an opportunity. Most definitely not her and most definitely not because of someone name Lloyd Riley.“And that is the case.” Kareem concluded.“I see.” Anastasia hummed, nodding her head in the process. From all she had heard, learnt and was able to gather, the situation on ground had come about because of an employee who had stolen confidential files from the company and took it to a rivalry company, selling it off.But the rivaling company, either they were not smart enough to change the concept of what had been sold to them or that they purposely wanted to rub the fact that they had gotten hands on L.R co’s latest concept.Either way, it was a stupid move and Anastasi

Lloyd woke up the next morning to find the bed beside him cold and empty. His brows furrowed and as he sat up, rubbing the sleep from his eyes, his mind recalled the events from last night yet Anastasia was nowhere to been seen.Did she leave? He wondered.He looked around, and his eyes landed on a piece of paper on his bedside table.Lloyd frowned and picked the note up, his eyes skimming through the words written on it.Last night was great, but I could have gotten better. I left some cash to thank you for your service. Hope we don’t ever cross paths again, Lloyd Riley.After reading the message, Lloyd’s eyes quickly found a thousand dollar bill placed on top of his wallet and he chuckled.“Is this a fucking joke?”Did Anastasia take him as a sex worker? Or did she think he was a prostitute?And she even had the balls to tell him that she hoped they were crossed paths again.He shook his head, still finding it funny that she’d leave a message like this.“Oh, Anastasia, you’re so cut

“Lloyd Riley, I’ll make this a night for you to remember.”It was like a promise, or maybe even a declaration, but regardless, it was one Anastasia was determined to keep and she knew just how to do so.Over the course of years, she had dealt with boys like Lloyd, players, the call themselves. They waltz into your life, mess up your emotions and end up using you as a one night stand.Anastasia’s first experience at that had been painful, so right now, as she walked back to where she and Lloyd had been seated, she wondered how Lloyd would feel if the tables were turned on him.“You done?” Lloyd asked as she took her seat from across him, fingers curling around the glass of her whiskey.“Yes. The bathroom here didn’t really have much to offer.” She flashed him a smile, deciding to move on to her plan rather than delaying an further. “So, do you have any plans after this?” She asked, placing the tip of her glass on her lower lip and looking at Lloyd through her lashes.He narrowed his ey

Standing in front of the mirror, Anastasia sighed, a frown etched onto her face as she checked herself. For a second, she debated whether or not she could pull off the outfit she was wearing.Her usual dress code, always having had the mindset of a lawyer and boss woman, was a simple jumpsuit or trousers and a blouse. But tonight, she had decided to switch things up.Tonight, she was wearing a knee length, skin tight dress, a dress that was cut at the front, revealing the bare skin of her thigh. Her hair, usually held up in a messy bun, was free flowing down her back, her lips a deep shade of red and her eyelashes long and luscious.As she stood there, checking herself, her mind began running wild.Why had she agreed to a date with Lloyd? What the fuck was she thinking?She shook her head, this for sure, was going to turn out to be chaos.Being ripped away from her thought by the sound of her door bell ringing, Anastasia decided to lock up her worries in the back of her mind and appro
