After Divorce Billionaire Ex Found Me Pregnant

Even thought he was quiet, his expression said it all.

She scotled. "You think I'm trying to con you?"

"I never said that." Gabriel corrected. "All I said was 'I can't blindly trust you', Since when was there something wrong with being on my guard"

Leonica looked like she was about to report back, but held her mouth

Onguard? Against who? The mother of your child?

Sie so wanted to say that, but considering the fact that Gabriel didn't even remember who she was, coupled with Doctor Bailey's

dvice, she bit those words back,

"No, there's nothing wrong with that." She said, sounding more composed than a few seconds ago.

Gabriel nodded in agreement, for some reason, he found watching her lose her composure rather entertaining. Either it had something to do with the fact that he always enjoyed the companies od blonde, attractive ones such as herself, or it had something to do with... that.

"So?" He tilted his head to the side with a questioning gaze, strands of his fair falling out of place with the action.

The displaced strands caught Leonica's attention and caused her to stare. Not only did Gabriel, dressed in a hospital gown with his hair returning to its natural middle parting that allowed the ends of his hair brush against his cheek bones due to the absence of perming gel, look completely unlike him, but also surprisingly handsome, as much as Leonica wouldn't love to admit.

"Why don't you take a pic, it lasts longer." The irony in Gabriel's voice had Leonica snapping out of her unintentional stare. She glared at him. "I wasn't staring "

*Yeah? Then what were you doing if not undressing me with your eyes?" He boldly questioned, leaving Leonica speechless. The Gabriel she lanew would never dare say such a thing!

Then again, as she started at him, taking note of the fact that his countenance was indeed different from the Gabriel, business stuck up, cold bastard and workaholic asshole, she knew. This Gabriel, although, the same person was more straightforward and surprisingly polite despite his bold antics.

Leonica couldn't help but wonder if this was how Gabriel actually was like before he met Angelina. Before he was tasked with taking on the burden of such a big company. Before all the hate and betrayal he experienced during his climb up. Before He had to watch his grandmother slowly die.

Before he became the Gabriel Bryce he was today.

"I wasn't undressing you with my eyes," She began with a sigh that suggested she was done with whatever entertaining play Gabriel was about to begin. "I was thinking about how much... different you look from your usual self." She said, but later cursed herself for opening her mouth and speaking comfortably around Gabriel

'Don't forget, he may have lost his memory and now seem like a totally different person, but he's still the same man that had hurt you. The thought had her tensing up, putting her guard, which she had unintentionally let down, back up.
