After Divorce Billionaire Ex Found Me Pregnant

dragging it back to the article of she and Owen that had been released.

"Because if you don't, she'll keep getting in trouble, dragged into scandalous trends because you're included in them. This one for example." He said, bringing out his phone and showing the post of Leonica's conversation with Irene, and how people constantly kept "She'll keep getting in trouble, and the media won't leave her alone. Not until you two stop meeting up. So, please, just stay away from her, for her sake."

Owen stared at him, wondering why the fuck he was talking about her like she was his, or his girlfriend, when she was his ex. "I'm not going to stay away fr

from her." Owen spoke, his eyes narrowed. "Not for you, not for the press and not for the people " Gabriel bit the inside of his jaw and sighed. He had expected this much.

""You're going to ruin her life. He uttered.

"I'm not you," Owen's come back stunned him speechless. "And that's not for you to decide. Leonica's a grown woman, I'm sure if she knows I'm bad news, she's know what to do."

And with that, he turned around and walked back to Alistair, not for once bothering to look back.

With her conference drawn to a close, Leonica's next task was to finally have the spray paint on her gate taken care of.

As she relayed the message to Grace, the sound of commotion from down the Hall caught her attention.

"oh would you just stop it already!" Arvan exclaimed and as Leonica drew closer, she realized he was speaking with another person,

a female.

"Arvan, I'm your wife." The woman argued and it took Leonica a few seconds to realize the voice belonged to none other than Irene Rosewood.

"Ex wife," Arvan corrected her, sighing as he did, "Irene, we've been through this so many times. You left me, remember? Because of your cheating ways. Don't pretend like you weren't the one who left. And even after everything, I was willing to take you back. But what did you do?"

He paused and looked her In the eye. "You tried swindling me of my fortune. And now you have the audacity to show up here, demanding that we get back together."

"You can't be serious!" Irene laughed out loud. "Do you really expect me to believe that's your reason for not wanting to take me back? You're not a lid, Arvan. You should know how to handle your emotions at this stage."

"My emotions?" Arvan shook his head. "There's nothing you can say that can make me feel the slightest amount of affection for you. Irene's lips formed into a thin line. "And why is that? You don't love me anymore, or have you found someone else?"

"None of your concern." He responded, taking his attention away from her and placing it on the one walking towards them.

"Is it because of her?" Irene sneered. "She's a no good home wrecker. Why would you want someone like her?"

Arvan was quick to snap. "Shut your mouth, Irene. Don't ever speak of her that way." He stepped forward and lowered his voice. "I'm going to give you one last chance, take your shit and get out of our lives. Or else." The rest of his words trailed off but Irene knew the meaning.

It was a threat and Arvan wasn't one to take lightly when he threatened someone.

With the taste of defeat bitter in her mouth, Irene glared at both Arvan and Leonica before storming off.

"Are you okay?" Leonica asked.

Yeah, sorry about that. I thought the security would have handled her before she made it inside."

Leonica shook her head. "It's alright, there no need to apologize."

Nodding his head, he quickly changed the topic. "The conference went well." He pointed out and Leonica nodded.

"It went perfect. Thanks to you, my close friend." She said and extended her hand

Arvan looked down at it, chuckling at the words before talding her hand. "Glad I was of help. By the way, I'll have to leave now, something urgent came up. Take care, Leo. We'll speak later."

"Bye." She said, waving him off and fetching her phone out of her pocket atter feeling it vibrate.

She smiled slightly when seeing the caller. "Hey Owen."

"He saw your press conference. You did awesome." He praised.

Leonica found herself blushing slightly. "Thanks."
