After Divorce Billionaire Ex Found Me Pregnant

Suspicious Behavior.

Along with the unwilling shivers that went down her spine due to Gabriel's close presence, Leonica felt her heart pick up it's pace at the mention of her son.

Eyes wide, barely stopping herself from panicking and ultimately snapping at Gabriel in a nasty manner, she calmed herself and with efficient speed, shoved the man in front of her

away.

"No matter who you are, Gabriel, this is just you getting way over your head." She warned. Whoever that man was has nothing to do with you. It's my matter and if I were you, I'd stop poking. The natural thing that a Stranger should do." She placed great emphasis on the

stranger.

Unknowingly, Gabriel found himself wincing. He opened his mouth, intending to retort, however before the words could leave his mouth, the gate to her house opened and the approaching presence that they both had not noticed, appeared.

The house keeper, a lady in her earlier thirties who had been hired by Leonica to watch the house, and previously Ashely in tow, glanced between the two.

Concern, as well as worry flashed across her face when she realized the tension hanging hot in

the air.

"Madam," She began, taking to Leonica's defensive aid.

Although Leonica had not openly admitted it, the moment Gabriel had asked the question of Ash's father, it had shown on her face, the panic,

Unlike the expressions he had seen her with so far, Leonica had seemed tensed, panicked and feared even, the moment he mentioned Ash.

No one needed to tell him, Gabriel, even in his half intoxicated state, could sense that she was hiding something.

Eyes narrowing as he stared at the dark painting of her gate, a passing thought, or rather, at new determination formed in the back of his mind, making it a personal priority to uncover whatever she was hiding, with regards to the boy

Her night, just like the right of her day, had gone by in a blur, making it so that when she woke the next morning, she felt less refreshed than the previous day, even though she had evidently slept longer than her previous days.

Her arrangement to begin her day at work felt out of place, as for one, there was no tiny figure running around the house with a black furred bunny in his arms. Each time she recalled the absence of the small child, almost panicking, she had to remind herself that he was now staying with her parents, for the time being that is.
