If one word could accurately describe the way Leonica was currently feeling, that would be, Breathless.Seeing Gabriel up so close after five years and not even having been mentally prepared, shook her to some extent.What was he doing here?Forego the fact that this even was especially meant to business attendants, Anastasia had sang it like a lullaby in her ears about how he had quit attending social activities, and as a result, she had let her guard down and attended the annual banquet without a worry in the world concerning running into him.sh*t, she cursed in her head. How had she been so careless?Taking another step back, she tried to put some much needed distance between them, while schooling her expression.There was no need to have any sort of expression that would show that his presence was getting to her.As a matter of fact, there was no need remaining within the same space as him.She needed to leave.With that p*ssing thought in her mind, Leonica lowered her gaze, seem

A deafening silence fell over the trio at Gabriel’s words.The only sounds that could be heard was the subtle melody of the music as the other attendants carried on with their night, not a care in the world for the silent battle that was occurring on the edge of the dance floor.The air had suddenly grown thick and heavy.Leonica felt as though her ears were ringing, her heart beating so fast it was going to jump out of her chest.“What…what did you just say?” She directed her question at Gabriel, who turned to her and smirked, the look on his face saying it all.She had know him for five years, she was his wife, for crying out loud, she could read his facial expressions and body language like the back of her palm.He was serious and the silent look of ‘You think I wouldn’t find out?’ he was giving her was proof of that.However, no matter how calm she was on the outside, on the inside, she was freaking out.How had he know she had been pregnant five years ago?!“What, surprised?” Gab

"Gabe, there you are! I've been looking all over for you." Angelina called out as she strolled in the direction of her Fiancé's figure, putting on a weakened Visage that would go perfectly well with her meek act.Without caring who he was conversing with, she cling onto his arm, making sure that the engagement ring he had given her a few weeks ago was very visible as soon as she noticed his companion, aside from Christian was a stunning white-ette woman.Huh, stunning white-ette woman?!Angelina did a doubt take at the woman's direction, her eyes growing wide at she recognized the familiar face of Leonica."You...!" She exclaimed nearly blowing the meek persona she has been living by for years in other to gain Gabriel's love and affection.Which has been relatively easy over the years, however, staring the woman that stood in front of her, from head to toe, Angelina felt a deep sense of intimidation.She was gorgeous. No matter how much hatred Angelina harbored for Leonica, Gabriel's

And it did.Leonica’s final words to him sank in the deepest, striking Gabriel’s heart that was already occupied by the conflicted feelings, seeing Leonica after five years, had brought.But one thing was clear, her transformation in the past five years, precisely, how indifferent she had began acting towards him, angered him. Yet, as he turned and watched her ascend the stage to give her speech, spot light shinning all around her, Gabriel couldn’t help but feel mesmerized.The Leonica he knew five years ago, would have never dared to talk back to him. She would have been so afraid, so broken, she wouldn’t have the courage to stand up for herself, yet, here she was.Her aura had completely changed and she wasn’t the same woman he had married and divorced.No, the woman who stood on stage, holding a microphone in her hand with a billion dollar smile, was a confident and strong individual.She had changed so much in five years.During his trans like stare towards Leonica, Gabriel had fa

"What?" Christian asked, blinking his eyes in confusion.Had he just heard Gabriel right?"Leonica's medical records, I want them." Gabriel repeated."That..." Christian hesitated. "I don't think that would be possible, Gabriel.""Why not?" Gabriel questioned, not liking the fact that Christian was hesitant to grant him his wish."Because they are private and that would mean I have to violate her privacy to get that information." Christian reasoned, hoping Gabriel would back off.However, it was a futile attempt."Invasion of privacy or not, Christian, I want those records."Christian's jaws clenched, clearly displeased by his friend's decision. "And what do you hope to achieve by obtaining her medical records? What will this accomplish?""The abortion, her medical record will surely contain traces of an abortion.""What?" Christian nearly chuckled at his response. Not only did he find it funny that his friend cared so much as to carry the matter over night, he found it equally distur

“Ouchie.”A tiny voice whimpered, drawing Gabriel’s attention as he glanced down and his gaze landed on the small male with blonde locks, sitting on the floor, rubbing his head in pain.'How careless.' He thought with a sigh.“This, kid, is why you should never run in halls.” Gabriel stated as he crouched down on one kneel, extending his hand so that the child who was still rubbing his head, could use it as a support when getting up.“Are you hurt anywhere?” He asked.“No, not really,” The boy replied as he stopped rubbing his forehead and finally looked up at Gabriel.Almost as if something invisible had entered him, Gabriel felt a strange feeling blossom in his chest the moment he caught the child’s face.He stared at the boy’s face as if he was in a trans, feeling somewhat attracted to him.The little boy’s blonde hair was neatly combed, his grey eyes were round and filled with curiosity, while his pale skin was flushed, a faint hue of red covering his cheeks.It reminded him of so

With Mouth hanging open and eyes widening far beyond their capacity, Gabriel watched the scene in front of him play out like a sitcom.Except it wasn’t some channel television, it was real.Leonica was a mother.“Why did you leave the doctor’s appointment, Ash?” Leonica, despite the scolding tone she had, pecked the young bow on his forehead. “Are you aware of how worried mommy was?” She asked, loud enough for Gabriel to hear, Indeed confirming his thoughts.That child belonged to Leonica…But hadn’t she said that she had aborted the baby five years ago?So whose child was this?Someone else’s?Not possible. The Boy, Ash as she had called him, had referred to her as his mother and she to herself as his mother.So it was clear to him that This boy, Ash, was her child, so did that mean…she had another child with another man?The thought, as unusual as it was to p*ss Gabriel’s mind, caused a storm of emotions to unleash inside, the strongest ones present being anger and confusion.For so

“…You know, seeing you lost was so unlike you. You had taken so much time, keeping me waiting…and getting me worried of course. Those are the two things you should never do to your fiancee, babe. Gabe, are you listening?”Gabriel, even though he had been addressed and it being courtesy for him to respond, remained silent.Currently, seated in Angelina’s recovery wing and listening to her tattle on about how late he had been- nearly an hour past when she had called- the male’s thoughts constantly strayed back to a certain child and his mother.Leonica and Ash.His thoughts, ever since stepping into the recovery wing, had been filled with the two. The scene he had witnessed replayed in his mind. Thoughts of Ash being the child of another man taunting him.Somehow, it felt those circling thoughts were driving him crazy, making him incapable of focusing on his fiancee in front of him, even when she hissed in pain each time the bandage around her ankles had been wrapped.“Gabe?” Angelina t

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
