After Divorce Billionaire Ex Found Me Pregnant

"Bingo!" He replied, chuckling as he did. "Stuart Reeds is just a made up name. It's the identity I've taken to Infiltrate your company and take the revenge I've planned. Ah, I'm sure you must be wondering about the picture, you did a background check on the name, am 1 right?" When Leonica didn't answer, giving him the satisfaction he wanted, he continued on. "That dude's just my gardener."

"Just a fall guy."

"Correct." He said, clapping his hand. "You truly are smart, but not smart to see the obvious threat in front of you. Your assistant on the other hand..." He trailed off, tutting his tongue and wagging his finger.

Leonica gritted her teeth, glaring daggers at him in a bid to hide the worry she was feeling for Kennedy. "What did you do to him?!"

"Well, nothing much. He's fine. But, is now really a time to worry about others?" He said and walked around her. "Shouldn't you worry about your own life instead?"

"I can handle myself." She responded.

The One Png The Strings

"I'm sure you can. But the question is, will you?"

"What is that supposed to mean?"

"Ah, Ms. Romero, don't tell me you haven't figured it out yet. If I'm the one behind this, who's the one helping me?"

Leonica's heart nearly stopped at his question. She turned her head slowly to catch the look on his face. Only after seeing the huge grin that spilt his face did she realize he wasn't joking. There was someone helping him?!

"Ah, don't tell me you haven't figured it out just yet?" He mocked, his hand moving and brushing against the hair on her shoulder.

She jerked away from his touch, her eyes narrowing and the fire in her gut burning

"Ah, you don't have to worry. Sadly she's not here, I can assure you that."

"She?" Leonica questioned.

Was it Angelina? But how? She was behind bars, wasn't she?

"Ah, I've already told you too much." As if realizing he had said too much, he walked away. "Don't worry, I better keep my mouth shut before I spoil the fun."

"You're sick" Leonica spat, tugging on the rope around her wrist and trying to break free.

He chuckled at her words as he walked over to the door, holding it open and looking over his shoulder. "Yeah? Well too bad, I didn't think that when I ran over that stupid kid of your " The anger and rage she was feeling, instantly simmered down, and the color on her face drained.

Her expression gave him the satisfaction he craved for. "Don't look too surprised Princess, or else the events to come won't be fun." And with that, he shut the door and the lock clicked. She Was Taken.

Resting against his car, outside of Romero Empire, Owen patiently tapped his feet while pressing his phone close to his ear.

"The caller you're trying to reach is currently out of service. Please try again another time." The robotic voice rang into his ear for the umpteenth time.

He pulled the phone away and ended the call, glancing up at the company empire in front of him with squinted eyes.

It wasn't like Leonica to be late to an appointment, talk less of having her phone switched off for ten minutes straight.

Perhaps her battery ran flat and she'd running late in a meeting. He tried to assure himself.
