Pregnant and Divorced, The Billionaire's Regret Chapter 71 Speak Of The Devil, And He Shall Appear.
“Just because I Chose to keep quiet, doesn’t mean you should take me for a fool, Angelina.”“What...what do you mean?” The brunette stuttered. Gabriel’s earlier words had knocked some of her missing sense back into her, returning her attitude to the calm, meek and weak damsel Gabriel knew her once to be. “I’d never take you for a fool, Gabriel. I love you.”“Yeah? And I'm supposed to believe that?” Reaching into the pocket of his leather jacket, Gabriel fished out his phone whilst asking.“Do you doubt it?” The female questioned back.Not answering her question immediately, Gabriel tinkered with his phone for a few seconds, a minute at most, before he tossed it into her lap. “Nowadays, I really do doubt that.”Looking down at the phone, Angelina became speechless at the video that was playing.It was surveillance footage from the night of Stellar’s birthday party, showing that Leonica had been the one who stepped into the room. And the later part, early in the morning, showed the very

“Just go home, please.”Seated in front of her room vanity mirror, Gabriel’s words replayed in Leonica’s head like a haunting tape.For some reason, she couldn’t get it out of her head. Perhaps it had been his tone? Or the anger that she had expected to come, more than prepared herself to receive, but never did? Or perhaps was it the expression on his face?Or all three of them?Whichever it was, it haunted her mind over and over again, throughout the entire freaking day.Heaving a sigh, she pulled off the last of her jewelry and looked in the mirror just in time to see Ashley poking his head through the threshold of her door.“Mommy?” He called out in a small voice, testing his mother’s mood as he had stood by her door for nearly ten minutes, observing as her mood deteriorated every now and now, and only ever growing the guts to call out to her when he felt his eye lids getting really heavy.Putting on her best smile to mask her inner troubles, Leonica turned around in her chair. “He

A day had gone and despite Gabriel's audacious accusation, Leonica couldn't stop her Mary-Sue like mind from still pondering about Angelina wellbeing. Seated in her office, she flipped through yet another file with an absent mind, heaving a sigh at the end. Kennedy who was seated in a chair in the far corner of her office, nearly swallowed by the heap of files, generated from half of the work Leonica had unintentionally neglected over the days, glanced her way, instantly noticing the zoned-out look on her face.It was obvious that something was on her mind, and Kennedy, more than anyone, knew that the moment something plagued his employer's mind, she was either slow at work, got the work done, but however with several errors which he had to later on correct, or doesn't get any work done at all.A painful flaw in her almost perfect personality that she definitely had to work on fixing.After a moment of internal debate, whether to remain silent and bury his nose back into his work, or

“It didn’t belong to me,” Leonica knitted her brows at Gabriel’s outburst.What was he going on about now?what the h*ll didn’t belong to him?“What?”“The child Angelina had been carrying... it didn’t belong to me.” Gabriel repeated, more clearly this time around.Swallowing thick, he awaited Leonica’s reaction, surprised to see that she was looking surprised. Of course, she was! Heck, who wouldn’t be?After nearly a month of believing that Angelina was carrying his child, he suddenly spilled the beans, saying the child didn’t belong to him.How exactly does that work?“Why... why are you telling me this?” Leonica asked once she was able to shake the surprise off. “What do you hope to gain by doing this?”“I...” Gabriel began, only for the rest of his words to die on his tongue. He had no valid reason for telling her what he just did.In all honesty, it was a spur of the moment reaction to stop her from walking away. But obviously, Gabriel wasn’t going to admit that. But to himself a

April fools, that was what Angelina wished today was.But it wasn’t. Currently, it was May 3, April’s fool was far from over. So that meant everything little thing Gabriel was saying was not a prank.Tears began to pull in her eyes, and she snapped without holding back, yelling at the top of her lungs. “You... you don’t love me anymore? There’s no future for you and I? what the h*ll are you saying Gabriel?!”Gabriel remained quiet even though he had been addressed. He had prepared for something like this, her outrage and on flowing tears, so he wasn’t in the least bit moved.When Angelina noticed this, eyes locking onto his indifferent and unfazed ones, she felt a painful sting in her chest. It was the kind of pinch one felt once they had realized something painful that they had been trying to fight off. And for Angelina, her realization in this case, was that Gabriel’s words were true.He wasn’t lying to get rid of her but telling the truth. He actually no longer loved her.But why?

The next day, Leonica sat in the comfort of her living room, looking through the guest list for Ashley’s birthday party. But truthfully, only half of her mind was on the task. The other half was wandering dangerously close to the conversation she had with Gabriel the previous day, more so, the words she had spoken to him.Now, the white-Ette was a hundred percent aware that Gabriel was a scumbag, she had experienced it firsthand, after all. But for some reason, reasons that she tried time and time again to ignore, she couldn’t help but wonder if she had been too harsh on him.Even an *sshole didn’t deserve such a brutal truth and she could have done a better job at selling it smooth to him, right?“Ha,” Sighing, she placed the guest list down and ran her fingers through her hair, cursing at her mind for thinking hard and long over something such as this, that she didn’t even want to recall.Her thoughts were interrupted by the sound of the door opening and shortly after, the housekeep
Pregnant and Divorced, The Billionaire's Regret Chapter 77 Do You Really Want To Risk It?
~Thirty minutes earlier~Leonica had just finished sorting through the first batch of attending guests when Grace glided down the stairs alone. She glanced up the stairs, expecting the little demon to rush down in his usual energetic state, but he did.“Where’s Ash?” She asked when her son was nowhere to be seen.“The young master fell asleep right after his bath.” Grace informed as she descended the last flight of stairs and picked up the dusting rag she had dropped off before going upstairs, about to resume her duties. When she noticed Leonica’s unwavering stare on her, she asked. “Should I have stopped him? Perhaps I should have kept him awake so he could sleep better at night?”“Uh, no. Not at all. It’s just,” There was a pause in her sentence in which Leonica chuckled to herself. “It’s not every day you see Ash fall asleep right after a bath.”Understanding the reason for her long stare, Grace nodded her head. “Indeed. The Child must have been really exhausted.” She reasoned, rea

“Risk it?” Leonica repeated his words and went silent. All of a sudden, she chuckled loudly, startling Gabriel. “Don’t be silly, Gabriel. Even if artificial insemination fails, there are many other ways to save Ashley.” She said and waved her hand in a dismissive manner almost as if saying she wanted to end the topic here.But Gabriel’s confused expression said something else.Other ways to save Ashley? God he hoped it was no what he thought she was implying.“In-Vitro for example.” Leonica added upon seeing Gabriel confused face and nearly relished deeply when his expression contorted confusion, anger that came when he realized that his *ssumptions were right and then finally a disapproving look that came along with the realization that not many mothers were the same after IVF.“IVF, are you listening to yourself, Leonica? That can harm you.” He objected, leaning forward in a manner that showed he was serious about his every word.“Like you care.” Leonica shrugged nonchalantly, eyes

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
