"Is...was that why?" He questioned with a softer tone. "For whatever reason, you shouldn't have done that, Leonica. I still deserved to know the truth."
"Oh don't play holy saint with me," Slapping his hand off her neck, she sneered at him. " Before you go about drilling me about my choice of concealing Ashely's identity, first remember that it was you who didn't want me baring any of your children. Oral contraceptive, remember?"
Gabriel did and the mention of it brought a sting to his heart.
Start Over Wan Me?
"That was... At that time, didn't know you were pregnant, Leonica."
"Oh yeah? And what if you did? Would you have cancelled the divorce and thrown Angelina out of your life?" She asked pointedly, but deep down, some part of her hoped to hear a specific answer from him.
However, seconds passed and Gabriel hadn't responded. His silence told her all she needed to
hear.
Nodding her head, she felt a familiar sting behind her eyes, but forced the tears back.
"Yeah, thought so." Taking a step back, she swallowed thickly, making sure her voice was steady enough before she spoke. "You don't have to worry, I won't stop Ashely from meeting you anymore, after all, the treatment requires your assistance. But get this straight, I will ot stand by and watch you try to take him from me. If worse comes to worse, I will fight back."
Watching her turn to leave, Gabriel felt sour about how the conversation was ending. He had demanded to talk with her so that they could settle things...for Ashely's sake. Yet, here they were, fighting like tom and freaking Jerry.
Under normal circumstances, Gabriel would have gotten satisfaction from seeing Leonica angry, heck, her furious face even some times turned him on. But that wasn't the case for today's argument And no matter how much he tried to ignore that nagging feeling in the back of his mind, it kept telling him that if Leonica were to walk away and things were to end like this...it would be the end.
The end of her and him.
And that, he couldn't allow.
Stepping forward at a swift speed, he startled Leonica by wrapping his arms around her from. behind.
"Let... let me go, Gabriel." She demanded and began struggling. However, her struggles and whatever next word she wanted to say, died down the moment Gabriel spoke.
"If I gave up on my engagement with Angelina...would you consider starting over with me, Leonica?"
His Dysperate Plov
His Desperate Ploy.
Those words felt like a sweet, yet poisonous drink being served to her, because no matter how dreamy they sounded, in the end, she was going to end up getting hurt.
Hurt by getting her hopes up.
Hurt by believing his words.
Hurt by allowing feelings she had buried resurface.
But what if those words weren't fake?
