After Divorce Billionaire Ex Found Me Pregnant

Main Characters Under The Spotlight.

"What the hell is happening?" Someone, one of the guests who weren't busy with their respective partners on the dance floor, whispered Leonica's exact thought as she stared at each of the hands presented in front of her, one out of three waiting for her to place her hand in theirs and make a pick. "Who do you think she's going to choose?" Another person asked in a whisper, sipping on their wine as they watched the scene play out with interest.

"I know we aren't meant our poke our nose in their matter, but I can't help but wonder. All three men are dashing. So who's Ms. Romero going to pick?

The whispers, once little, slowly rose as more people's attentions were drawn to the scene, soon, the voice's reached Ashley's ears. Stopping his currently clumsy but very much enjoyable dance with Daisy, the younger boy turned in the direction where all eyes had been looking. The first thing he noticed was his mother backed against the comer like a confused rabbit, sweating under the growing eyes of its spectators and ready to dash at any given moment

The second thing he noticed was the three familiar men standing in front of her.

"Daddy, Arvan, Owen.' He counted them one by one, trying to understand what was happening,

Daisy, who had sensed his confusion, perched beside him. Bringing her voice down, she whispered. "I think my daddy, your daddy, and that strange man is trynna ask your mommy to a dance."

Ah, so that was what was happening! Ashley nearly laughed at his slow thinking, inwardly slapping himself on the head. How could he have been so ignorant?

Well, he'd make up for that. From where he stood, it was clear to him that his mother was confused, not sure whose hand to accept and if he knew better, which he did, Ashley was sure that his mother wasn't going to choose his father's hand. He was aware that his daddy had done something bad to upset his mommy, she had made it known many times, including tonight.

And if he law better, which once again, he did, then Ashley knew his mother was either going to pick Arvan or Owen's hand. But he wasn't going to let that happen. As much as he loved either of them, he loved his father more and needed to help him.

Turning to Daisy, Ashley pulled her close and whispered his plan in her ears. Once he was done, they pulled apart and nodded at each other before striding off in the direction Leonica was, comered by the three mon

"Leonica, would you. Arvan began once again after a while of silence, but before his words could be completed, Daisy suddenly showed up and placed her hand in his open palm, pulling him slightly in her direction

"Daddy, I want to dance with you!" She said excitedly while pulling him towards the dance floor. Arvan muttered a few incoherent words of protest, which Daisy didn't pay attention to as she looked over to her friend and gave an awkward wink

The wink was almost like his go ahead signal, no, in fact it was his go ahead signal, because the moment he received it from Daisy, Ashley increased his pace, cutting in between his father and Owen in the blink of an eye and before either men could react, he took his mother's hand and placed it in that of his father's, stopping Leonica before she could place her hand in Owen's hand.

The gesture surprised Leonica and she looked down at her son who innocently smiled up at her before slowly pushing her and Gabriel into the dance floor. "Dalsy and I just finished our dance mommy, daddy, now it's your tum" Ashley was saying as he gave them both one final push towards the dance floor and clapped his hands together, indicating a job well done.

However, as soon as they had mixed with the other couples on the dance floor, Leonica slipped her hand out of Gabriel's, feverishly cleaning it against her dress in a bid to get the feeling of his skin against hers off.
