Pregnant and Divorced, The Billionaire's Regret のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 31 - チャプター 40

With a neutral expression on his face, Gabriel calmed his thoughts and heart alike before they could spiral out of control, and gave a simple nod in Ashely's direction, acknowledging him yet showing clearly that he had no intention of interacting with the younger male.At least for now, with his frame of mind, he had no intention of facing him. Perhaps some other time.Turning around, he ignored the look of confusion on Ashely's face and attempted to walk away. That was until the rowdy voices of a certain group of men caught his attention.They were walking in the direction where Ashely now stood still, looking at him, while carrying a stack of weighty and unbalanced technical props.As they got closer to Ashely, the props wobbled, showing signs topping over in the nearest future and Ashely, well Ashely was blissfully ignorant of his impending doom.Seeing the scene play out in his mind, Gabriel cursed. He was already mentally exhausted, and now he had to add this situation into the e

Leonica couldn't hide the surprised expression that marred her face at Ashely's words.She blinked, once, then a second time before uttering the only sentence her mind could manage to conjure."What?""My...new daddy?" Ashely repeated, this time with hesitance as he quickly sensed the troubling aura emanating from his mother.Had he said something wrong?'Fudge!' Cursing his stupid unfiltered mouth, the young boy lowered his head.Leonica's brows remained furrowed. She wasn't sure what to think. Ashely wanted Gabriel to be his...new daddy? What? When had the two even gotten so close for Ashely to begin harboring such thoughts?Or was this perhaps Gabriel's handiwork?'No,' She shook the thought away as soon as it crossed her mind.Gabriel was a sly b*stard but he had no use corrupting Ashely with such thoughts if he wasn't going to benefit anything from it.This...this was obviously the handiwork of one thing. The connection shared between father and son. As much as she hated it, seei

Surprise ridden by the sudden revelation,Gabriel was left speechless. He remained silent, staring almost blankly at the test result in his hand, yet his mind was swarming with thousands of questions.At last, he gathered himself and asked. "Angelina was pregnant? When?" He glanced between the doctor and his fiancee, who hung he'd head low under his stare."Eight years ago." Doctor Ken answered and sighed. "From her chat history that I have studied, it's clear that the baby had been miscarried, but Madam Fernandez insists that it was an abortion.""I'm not lying," Angelina defended."Medical chats don't lie, Angelina," Gabriel nearly snapped, the entire news of having had a child that he lost eight years ago, without even knowing of it, felt somewhat overwhelming for him. "It's either Doctor Ken forged this papers, or you are lying, so which is it?""I...Gabe, please," She begged, water forming in the corner of her eyes. Gabriel felt bad, but nonetheless he stood his ground, knowing th

Half an hour had p*ssed and all three of them had settled down with the meeting beginning most of it process, if not already approaching it’s closing ends, yet Leonica couldn’t stop the occasion squinted eye glances she gave in Arvan’s direction.This of course, did not go unnoticed by Gabriel, causing his grip to tighten around the edge of his chair’s handle.“…so for peace to rain and everything to return to as it was before, in both the business industry and society alike, I’ve decided to step in and suggest a rather…tricky proposal.” Arvan’s eyes scanned the figures of both serious looking CEO, only this time lingering more on Leonica’s part before turning away.“And, what may this proposal be?” Leonica asked the question for both CEOs.Turning behind, Arvan beckoned his *ssistant over from the corner she stood in. Halfway there, he made a hand gesture that only the two of them understood and instead of walking straight towards him, she made a beeline for Gabriel and Leonica’s sea

Pacing the space of his study in hope to calm whatever anger was still left in him- after returning a few hours ago- his mind however, doing the opposite of the task it had been given, replayed scene of Arvan and Leonica’s interaction, ultimately refueling the anger he had so desperately been trying to calm.Those scenes, as if hunting him, replayed like broken pieces of a record label, driving him crazy to the point that he wished he could dip his hand into his head and pull out that brain of his.That pleasure, however, wasn’t granted to him, leaving the memories in his head to taunt him in ways that was enough to have Gabriel’s stomach twisting and turning in ways he knew it should not, each time he thought about Leonica and Arvan’s overly friendly nature.It was almost as If…he was jealous of seeing them together.That p*ssing thought, as ridiculous as it may have sounded, was enough to bring his pacing to a halt, eyes narrowing as he questioned himself based on that very thought;
