Shortly after, she stepped out of the car and bade it goodbye. Turning around she began her walk towards the gate of her house, when suddenly there was a grip on her hand followed by a harsh tug and before she could process what happening, she felt a pair of warm lips forcefully pressed on her own.

It took her a few seconds to process everything. And when the face in front of her eyes cleared, she was surprised beyond words to see Gabriel.

Is He Ash's Father?

Leonica sat in the passenger seat hours after having her phone call with Leonardo. Staring a the different and unfamiliar interior of the car, her brain replayed the scrambled memory of her day so far.

After her call with Leonardo, she had felt panicked, seeing as Gabriel's men were so suddenly looking into Ashley's details. Her mind had been so scrambled like an egg, to the point that after leaving the kindergarten and parting ways with Anastasia, while driving, she had not taken notice of the black Chevrolet Vehicle speeding in her direction.

By the time the blazing horn had snapped her out of her mind, it was too late to avoid the vehicle which had sped her way. An unavoidable collision had happened.

Stepping out of her car, although not injured, the female had been missed. Put aside the asshole who had obviously ignored the traffic regulations, she was pissed about the dent and destruction made to her vehicle. Her favorite car so far!

"Hey, are you fucking blind?!" she had questioned, storming angrily towards the car, who's driver door had opened and out came a buff looking man in all black.

"Ma'am please forgive me." Instantly he apologized. "I didn't mean to run into your car.

"He your

Gently, despite her anger, hitting her knuckles against the firm glass, she gestured with her index finger for the man in the back to lower his window.

Thick, tinted black glass coming down, Leonica was met with a pair of brown lazy eyes staring at her. "I apologize for my driver's mistake." He went straight to business, not dragging the matter out any more than it should.

"If you could be as kind and drop your contact with him, along with the keys, my assistant here," he gestured towards the woman beside him, who's head Leonica could only see, "would take care of the repairs."

Leonica raised a brow. Although she felt like protesting, getting the male in the back to deliver a solid apologize to her in place of his assistant, she respected his way of going down to business and truthfully, felt drained from what little work she had done at the company before running to Ashely's aid at the hospital.

So with the fatigue and her better judgement kicking against her petty side, Leonica sighed and stormed right back to the driver, doing as the man in the back of the car had instructed.

Retrieving what useful things she needed in her car, she shot a sharp glare at the man in the
