wellbeing.

"Yes. Didn't think that far, now did you?" She tilted her head to the side, a satisfactory smile making it's way to her lips at Gabriel's puzzled Expression

Serves him right, Leonica wanted to say that much, but considering Gabriel's hot temper and the fact that they would get into yet another argument in front of Ashley's room, she reconsidered her options and for the sake of her son's sanity, remained silent.

However, the words she had said was more than enough to blow the lid on Gabriel's anger. "Artificial insemination, what the fuck Leonica? If you despise the idea of me so much, then why leep Ashley? Why did you keep my kid?".

"Is that even a question? Pushing the hair out of her face, Leonica sighed. "Normally, people who have hearts, unlike you, would have known that Ashley is just an innocent child. Taking his life because of the conflict between you and I, is just heartless. And last I checked, that's more of your thing, and not mine."

Gabriel's jaws flexed at her words, visibly angered at this point. Who was she to call him heartless? Who was she to stand before him and play saint when she had forced another woman to abort her baby? Despicable!

Chuckling briefly, Gabriel placed his hands on his hips, sighing through his lips seconds later. Tve never sem a better actress."

Leonica tilted her head to the side. A gesture that Gabelel would have found cute as usual if she had not been pouring sand into his freaking meal at the moment. "Pardon?"

"You heard me," Taking a step forward, he lowered his head, meeting her eye level. "You're here playing saint, declaring children innocent and calling those who abort them heartless, in your words, 'not your thing, yet you didn't hesitate to male Angelina abort hers. Why's that's, please enlighten me."

Leonica's face creased into a confused and puzzled Expression after the last of his words sank in

Make Angelina abort hers?

Was that the stress cousing her to mishear or was Gabriel genuinely speaking trash.

"What the hell are you talking about?" She scoffed.

Her attitude, ignorant, nonchalant and daring, in this case, flared Gabriel's anger. "You know what I'm talking about!" He fired back

"Like hell I do." Leonica hissed. "I don't know what you heard, but 1-"The last of her words, before given the opportunity to roll of her tongue, was interrupted by the sound of his phone ringing

Obviously, facing a more serious matter at hand, Gabriel tried to ignore the call, but three text messages and two phone calls later, he was forced to fish the vibrating device out of his pocket, sneaking a glance at the caller and unintentionally groaning the moment he saw it was from Angelina.
