like that of the devil's With the room once again falling into silence, Gabriel was left with his thoughts. They slowly began to spiral, picking up from where it had been left off minutes ago, cursing and blaming himself for the current situation.
At spoint, he felt like laughing at his very on stupidity. Leonica had seen through the witch's trae color, heck, even a whole Megan, someone who wasn't as involved in him and Leonica's life as Anastasia, had seen through her facade, Thinking back to the annual banquet, Gabriel seerned to now understand the reason why Mirgan had referred to Angelina the way she did. And along with that thought, ca sudden question.
Had Angelina always been this evil? Was that the reason why Grandmother had been against him marrying her? Was she the one who caused the complication to grandmother's life support that day, as a way to take out the obstacle standing in her path? Gabriel gritted his teeth at the cruel possibilities.
'... Gabriel!" The sound of Leonica's voice once again snapped him out of this thoughts. "Jesus, I know your tensed about the situation right now, but can you please not ignore me." But he wasn't ignoring her. "I'm sorry," He said, not bothering to explain the reason behind his silence.
Leonica seemed to discard his apology as quickly as it come. "That aside," She began and Gabriel knew exactly where she was heading. He injected before she could continue "I'm not going to send the location to you once Angelina sends it, so it's better you get your mind off it "What?" Her voice questioned sharply.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"I'm not sending it to you, Leonica." Gabriel repeated. Be angry atfor as long as you want, but I'd much rather take that than putting your life in danger "My son's life is in danger God dammit, why the hell should I care about my life being in danger." "Because that's the rational thing you should do," Gabriel said as he glanced back at his phone, expecting a text message to pop up on his screen. When he saw nothing, he began wondering if Angelina had changed her mind, perhaps returned from the cocaine frenzy. Nah, that was too much of a dream and as bad as he had cto learn Angelina was, she never did drugs. Her mental health already seemed far too shaky for that "Look, Leonica," He started in a calmer tone, walking towards his study window and looking outside for sreason. "I'm not going to put you in danger." "... And you think I want to put you in danger?" Cher hesitant answer. "Please stop being stubborn and givethe God dan location" "I can't do that. Gabriel shook his head.
"Why the fock not?!" Leonica finally lashed our, allowing the pressure of the entire situation get to her. "Because this is a trap God dammit!" Gabelel took on a tone to match hers. "Can't you see it, she's baiting you..us, and she's doing so with Ashley. I'm not going to let you walk right into her trap "So what? Are you suggesting I love Ashley to suffer at her hands? Call the cops or prepare to have another child with you and nthem after the one we abandoned? Which? Leonica questioned in a salty tone.
1. I didn't s say you should do any of that, Leonica. And I never said anything about abandoning Ashley." Gabriel said and when Leonica remained silent, clearly wanting to hear whatever explanation and solution to the situation he had, he continued, "We're going to save Ashley, together. But onlyis going to go to the location Angelina sends." From the other end, Leanica scoffed. "Wow, are you have or stupid? Or do you just not know the type of woman that psychopath is?" "Could you please listen tobefore you speak? Her silence gave him the answer be needed and he continued on. "I'm going to go there alone, at least that's what she'll think, but in reality, you're going to calong and locate Ashley and rescue him while I stall her." He explained. "And what if I don't agree with this?" She asked and in that moment, Gabriel's phone dinged with a message from the devil herself, a location attached to it.
"Well then, I'm sorry to tell you that as of this moment, you no longer have that choice." He didn't need to full spell out the situation, those words alone were enough go tell Leonica that Angelina had begun her sick game.
Dread settled in the pit of her stomach at the thought of Ashley being in the center of it all, and had the situation felt right, she would have paked out the entire meal she had with Owen early. But doing that would not only make matters worse, it would also deplete her strength. So for the sake of her son, she kept it all in Owen's gentle path on her back every now and then and Arvan's reassuring gaze also helped bountifully in completing the task.
"Pine, but I'm not going to allow your walk in there and leavewaiting outside on skind of call sign." She allowed the rest of her words trail off, but Gabriel knew fully well what they were.
'I can't entrust my son's life into the hands of your reliability." "Fine, what do you suggest?" He asked after swallowing the thoughts of how much Leonlea didn't trust him.
Not that he could blher.
"Aphole camera. If you have one on you, somewhere Angelina wouldn't be able to spot it, then I'd be able to see the surroundings as well as where Ashley might be kept. That way I can rescue him faster." Gabriel hated to admit it, but that was a great idea. Why hadn't he thought of that sooner.
"If that's what you want, then we best get to it. The longer we delay, the faster Angelina has the chance to realize something is wrong! Gabriel had briefly met up with Leonica a few minutes later. As she fixed on the camera in his necklace, the very sone his grandmother has left for Him, they went over the plan one last tBetween she standing so close to him, the scent of her Cologne and hair shampoo wafting into his nose each tthe wind picked up, and the annoying presence of Owen who was hanging behind in her car, setting up the camera connection, Gabriel had barely focused on the words she said. But that wasn't going to be a problem seeing as it was him who had brought up the plan.
Once going over the plan had concluded and the camera set discretely, Gabriel began his journey towards the location Angelina had sent him. A few meters behind his car, Leonica followed.
The location she had sent him belonged to the house he had bought for them to move into once they had gotten married, a few years back. Stepping into the premise gave Gabriel a nish of memories, both good and bad, but he quickly placed them aside and stepped into the house.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAngelina was seated in the middle of the open decor living room, on the only available chair in the entire house. She rose to her feet with a happy smile the moment she sported Gabriel entering alone.
"So that's how it's going to be, the shore throwing you under the bus at the very first sign of trouble." She tutted, shaking her head to express her displeasure "She didn't Throwunder the bus, I volunteered to cmyself," Gabriel said as he scanned the surroundings for Ashley but couldn't find him. "So don't talk about her that way." "Don't defend her!" Angelina was quick to screech the moment those words left his mouth. "Don't you fucking defend her when the one with the detonator is move." As she raised up the said object, Gabriel's blood pressure dropped.
That was one thing they hadn't planned for.
*Angelina, you need to stop this now. Put that thing down and tellwhere Ashley is." Gabriel said in a gentle tone, hoping to sooth her before she does anything crazy, all the while taking small steps towards her.
"You say I should stop this? But you see, I don't want to stop this, not until I get what I want, so, what do we do, Gabby? "Angelina," Gabriel called out, quieldy changing his tone when he realized he was sounding more threatening than calming "This has gone too far. Where's Ashley? "Oh, that little thing." Angelina sald and looked in the direction where Gabriel had hoped she'd look
The back room. It was one of those spare rooms he had built with the intention of storing unused clothes, shoes and anything outfit worthy. Thankfully he had also built a latch window along with the room with the intention of opening it every once in a while to let dust out Who would have known it was going to be put to a good purpose Hoping that Leonica saw the direction Angelina had looked in, Gabriel took another step forward and focused on calming her down.
"Angelina," He slowly began, raising his hand to match the height she held the detonator at. "I need you to put that thing away. It very dangerous and can make things end badly for all of us." think I don't know that?" She hissed. "But that's exactly how I want all this to end, if I don't get what I want." "What... What is it you want? Gabriel asked and glanced in the direction of the root, hoping he was buying Leonica and Owen more than enough tto get in and roseup Ashley And along the way he just might try and retrieve that detonator from Angelina, after all, he didn't want to die early, or at least end up in a hospital, vegetated for the rest of his life while another man took care of his so "Angelina, please answer me, what is it you want?" He asked again.
"It's.. It's very simple and I swear if you can give it to me, I'l. I'll stop this entire thing and we'll all walk (free. Ashley would be released and you and I... You and 1 would go on our merry way. Ell even promise to leave that bitch alone." Angelina said, her smile expanding with each word. "And. If I can't give it to you?" Gabriel dared to ask and watched as her smile completely crumbled **Then we all die. You, mo and that bastard tied up. All of us meets our heavenly father." She deadpanned
Hospenly Father? Yeah, Gabriel dated strongly whether he would go to heaven. With all the sing he had m ove committed against Leonica and several other prople, it would be a miracle if the Lord even decided to look down upon his case
