But as the quick witted person, she believes she is, she quickly realized that the situation was in her advantage.

The papers said Gabriel wasn't the father, and that meant Ashely was all hers, then who was she to deny.

"What's it, Gabriel? Cat's got your tongue?" She questioned when his silence streamed on.

He opened his mouth to speak, but as if the words were stuck in his throat, he couldn't utter a single one and ended up clamming his mouth shit.

"Exactly. Remain silent and think to yourself, what right do you have to stand here, claiming that you

you want to provide MY son with a complete family, when you have no relation to MY son, huh?"

Gabriel remained quiet, not out of cowardice; but rather because his brain was trying to sort through everything that was happening all the while stuck on one particular thought like it was lagging. Ashely wasn't his son?

Ashely...wasn't his son.

It was a big ball to swallow down after all the delusions and beliefs he had stuffed into his head.

"I've said this once...heck thrice, but I'll say it again if That's what it'd take for you to understand." Stepping forward, she ignores the nasty look Angelina threw her way and stared Gabriel straight in the eyes. "Stay the hell away from my son, Gabriel."

And with that, she stormed out of the suite she had been in, glaring at a few of Angelina's friends who she recognized on her way out.

Talk about a fucking bluff, she scoffed at the thought, mentally giving herself a quick and quiet slap on the back of her head for having easily fallen for Gabriel's ploy.

Fuck, it seemed so real that even she hadn't expected it to be a ploy!

"That sleazy fuck-'

Feeling someone grab her wrist, Leonica whipped her head around, brows forming daggers the moment they landed on Gabriel.

"Let-" she was about to speak, but he interrupted her.

"Answer me this," Gabriel began, grip tightening on Leonica's wrist. "Is Ashely isn't my son, then why does he look so much like me?"

His question caught Leonica off guard. She had not expected it and thus, momentarily froze up.

Less than five seconds had gone by before she broke out laughing, a forced one, but only she knew that.

Yanking her wrist free, she responded. "Come on Gabriel, isn't that smart brain of yours serving you well anymore? Just because Ashley looks like you, doesn't mean he's your child. The world is full of look alikes, and that child's father," she clicked her tongue in distaste and pretended to remember a person who didn't exist. "sadly had similar features to you. But don't get me wrong," she scanned him from head to toe ad smiled. "Your features aren't my type."

Gabriel eyes flattened. If Leonica's goal was to hurt but his pride and his feelings, then she

could give herself a well pat on the back 'cause she sure as hell succeeded.

Seeing as he had once again fallen into silence, the white-ette took this as her cue to leave and in seconds, she had turned around and continued her stroll out, leaving Gabriel standing in his place.
