Tom slowly lets go of Denise to express herself to his foolish friend as her words cut him deeply. Although he was mad at Leon for the way he was treating Ella, he felt that Leon deserve to be taught a bitter lesson rather than mere nagging.
Denise turned to Tom and spared him a brief smile of gratitude before refocusing her attention back on Leon.
When she observed that the murderous glint in Leon's eyes was gradually fading away, she decided to speak to his conscience rather than attack him with hateful words.
"Ella didn't get pregnant for another man but you, Leon. She didn't share her body with any other man but you. She loves you so much that she wants to replicate you for the next generation to come. She has given up on everyone that cares about her just for your love. You are her first love and probably will be her last."
"Denise, please, stop!"
