After Divorce Billionaire Ex Found Me Pregnant

They bowed upon seeing her and then one of them turned around and knocked on the door, informing Arvan of Leonica's arrival.

"Let her in!" He announced, missing the way Chloe shut her eyes and silently sighed from behind him.

The moment the door was opened and Leonica stepped in, Daisy's small figure rushed her away. She was just about ready to embrace the small girl when she ducked underneath her arms and flung herself into Ashely, who despite his age, skillfully caught her.

"Ashely!" She exclaimed, hugging her new best friend tightly, while Leonica blinked in surprise and slowly lowered her arms. "Where did you go? You haven't been in class for the past few days, so I thought you've moved schools, are you coming back now?" She quickly bombarded him with several questions.

While Ashley scrambled his brain, trying to answer one question before another was forced on him, Arvan quietly settled beside Leonica, joining her in watching the two.

She took notice of his presence, turning to flash him a smile, before turning back to gaze at the kids, mind still somewhat frizzled about Daisy's action.

It was obvious that Ashely was the more liked one when it came to she and him, but at least, Daisy should have said a 'hello' to her rather than just going straight for her son. Despite it sounding childish, Leonica was somewhat hurt by her actions.

Seeing the unintentionally pout on her face, Arvan held back a chuckle and shifted his weight from one leg to another, once again gaining her attention, before he asked. "Ashely hasn't been going to school? Did something happen?"

"No," she lied with a smile. Arvan was simply a friend, there was no need to drag him into her messy affairs.

"Is that so?" He mused while nodding, not seeming a hundred percent convinced.

Leonica swallowed thickly and nodded her head. "Yeah. But that aside," there was a pause as she thought of ways to arrange her words that wouldn't make her sound... sketchy? "Do you perhaps know of any school in Norway that isn't funded by...Bryce Empire, of the Bryce family in general?"
