After Divorce Billionaire Ex Found Me Pregnant

"Two big wins in less than twenty four hours, I gotta congratulate you, Irene." Jamil praised after having listened to Irene's story.

The blonde held her chin high, smiling proudly because she knew today's outcome had only occurred because of the action she made. "What else did you expect." Walking to her bed, she sat on it. "Now that we have One of my father's most expensive client within our grasp, all we need to do is turn him against Leonica and with the public's option of her right now, that shouldn't be too hard."

"Indeed," Jamil agreed. "But don't forget, the reason why Benjamin gave that contract to you is because he wants to change the public opinion of Leonica. The public may think otherwise about her, but the Romero family clearly still loves her." Jamil's words, although a simple reminder, peppered Irene more than it should have.

Why would her father still care about Leonica. She was his first daughter. It was her mother that he loved with all his heart, not Cassandra.

So why was it that he still loved Leonica rarely after the video she had published on the internet?

She clenched her jaw. All her effort and all the money she spent on getting that video, she wasn't going to let it go to waste. Never!

"Irene," Jamil's voice snapped her out of her thoughts. "Don't overdo it, Leonica is smarter than she looks and the moment she realizes that we're planning on taking over the entire Romero fortunate, it's going to be over for us."

"For someone who only wants a girl, you sure do worry too Much, Jamil." Irene teased. "But worry not, I know how to play this type of game, it ain't my first time."

"You better be as confident as you sound, because might I remind you, if I don't get Leonica, I won't keep you around any longer."

"I'm aware," Irene scoffed, not letting Jamil's threat affect her.

"Good. Then, I'll be looking forward to hearing good news from you."

"Yeah yeah," She waved him off, not bothering to say goodbye before ending the call and scoffing.

Who was he to threaten her.

Getting up, she quickly buried Jamil's unpleasant threat in the back of her mind, heading for her bedroom door as she dimmed the occasion fit for a glass of wine.

Ah, so that's how it was.
