After Divorce Billionaire Ex Found Me Pregnant

Chapter 221

Billy?!

Leonica was stunned speechless, eyes wide as she had not expected to see the male here, or anywhere as a matter of fact.

"Bill..." She managed to speak after a while, her brain still trying to process what he was doing by following them. "What are you doing here? No, why are you following us?"

Owen turned to his fiancée with raised brows after hearing her address their follower by his name. "You know him?"

"He's Gabriel's assistant," The words effortlessly rolled off Leonica's tongue as she still tried to understand what was going on.

Was he working for Jamil? Was that why he was following them? She felt a surge of anger spike within her. Of course Jamil was one to pull a stunt like this, turning those who you least suspect to his favorite weapons.

"You," Stepping forward, she stared him down with a cold gaze. "Speak, why are you following us?"

Billy, who was currently looking like a deer caught in head light, opened his mouth, and then closed it again.

"Speak, Billy." Leonica demanded, taking another step forward.

"I, I-uh," He stuttered, eyes shifting from her, to Owen and back to her. "It's, I'm not..."

"Stop blabbering." Leonica hissed. "You know, I'm not a very patient person, so either you give me a straight answer, or else."

Oh how he knew that and how he wished to give Leonica a straight answer, but his hands were tied here. If he were to give her the answer she wanted, that'd mean him betraying his boss and if he didn't, from the look in Leonica's eyes, he was sure that he'd not make it back to report to his boss this night.

"You're time is running thin, Billy and honestly you don't have a lot of it, so I'd be wise if I were you. Tell me, Jamil sent you, didn't he?" She questioned, but Billy continued to avoid her gaze, contemplating between the options he had.

"Look, Billy, or whatever your name is," Owen began, making sure to show a display of the pipe even though he wasn't going to use it. "I know things right now must seem like you're at a crossroad. Speak, or not speak, which road shall you take? Honestly there's only one, and that is to speak. You have no choice but to tell us why you were following us. It's not like you can deny."

Billy glanced at him, and then to Leonica and but still chose to remain silent.

And that's when Leonica snapped. "Perhaps I should have your father arrested for the illegal gambling he's been doing all this years." As she made a show to reach for her phone, Billy panicked.

"No, don't do that. I'll talk," He pleaded, eyes filled with realization that the situation was out of his hands. "I'll talk."
