Chapter 78 The Bitch Had Come For Revenge.
“Risk it?” Leonica repeated his words and went silent. All of a sudden, she chuckled loudly, startling Gabriel. “Don’t be silly, Gabriel. Even if artificial insemination fails, there are many other ways to save Ashley.” She said and waved her hand in a dismissive manner almost as if saying she wanted to end the topic here.
But Gabriel’s confused expression said something else.
Other ways to save Ashley? God he hoped it was no what he thought she was implying.
“In-Vitro for example.” Leonica added upon seeing Gabriel confused face and nearly relished deeply when his expression contorted confusion, anger that came when he realized that his assumptions were right and then finally a disapproving look that came along with the realization that not many mothers were the same after IVF.
“IVF, are you listening to yourself, Leonica? That can harm you.” He objected, leaning forward in a manner that showed he was serious about his every word.
“Like you care.” Leonica shrugged nonchalantly, eyes travelling towards the cup of still chilled lemon juice in front of her before she looked away.
Gabriel could only but chuckle at her words, finding it funny that she’d much rather hurt herself than spend a night with him.
‘But then again, hadn’t she already done that.’ Gabriel thought as images from Stellar’s birthday party’s night flashed in his head.
“You seem so totally against the idea now, but last I remember, you quite enjoyed the night we spent together at-” He was saying when Leonica shot him a dark stare that had him instantly going quiet.
“Shut up.” She hissed, tone low and intimidating.
Gabriel wasn’t intimidated, but boy was he fed up. Fed up with her damn vendetta against him. One second they’d be having a conversation and the very next, she’d be springing up that vendetta of hers on him.
