Chapter 64

Letitia was utterly stunned as she watched the doctor’s lips moving.

Elgin actually hadn’t gone through with it he didn’t taken her baby away! Instead, he had instructed the

doctor to save the baby. Why, though? This was so not his style!

Had Elgin suddenly grown a heart?

“Relax, both you and the fetus are stable,” the doc said. “Rest up for a couple of days and you’ll be

good to leave.”

She nodded dumbly, her hand caressing her belly. Her baby was still there.

Letitia broke into a grin, her eyes curving into crescents. She hadn’t lost her baby! But why, when she

had tearfully accused Elgin of killing her child, why hadn’t he spilled the beans?

And, she had even bitten him. Yet, he kept mum.

Elgin’s thought process was truly bizarre and puzzling. Letitia couldn’t for the life of her figure out what

he was thinking.

He had the chance to get rid of the baby but chose not to, and he didn’t even want to tell her himself.

Could it be her death wish had really freaked him out?

“Letitia? Letitia?” Vidonia waved her hand in front of Letitia’s face repeatedly, “What’s got you so

spaced out?”

She blinked, “Oh… it’s nothing.”

“As a mom-to-be, you gotta be careful. You nearly scared me to death,” Vidonia said as she pulled up a

chair to sit. “I’ve got a new role now, godmother to your kid, so I better step up.”

Letitia couldn’t stop grinning at her.

Vidonia was confused by her laughter, “Hey, you look so weird, what’s wrong?”

Letitia hugged her tightly, “It’s just… I’m over the moon. Getting back what you lost feels so amazing.”

“What did you lose?”

“Let’s eat first!” Letitia said, “I’m starving, and so is the baby!”

“I’m hungry too! Vidonia replied, “As soon as I heard you were hospitalized, I rushed over.”

“Let’s dig in together! There’s way too much for me to finish anyway.”

Vidonia grabbed a fork, “Alright, let’s see what your personal chef’s made for you.”

Laughter and lively chatter filled the hospital room. The previous gloom and doom vanished into thin

air!

Two days later, the doctor said Letitia could be discharged.

Packing her things, her back to the door, she heard the familiar, steady footsteps approaching.

It was Elgin.

She knew the sound of his footsteps all too well.

After she bit him that day, she hadn’t seen him since. She thought he wouldn’t show up… but there he

was, as she was about to be discharged.

Letitia continued packing without looking up

Elgin stood in the doorway, his gaze quietly fixed on her silhouette, until Letitia turned around.

Their eyes met, and Letitia glanced at his shoulder, noting nothing unusual.

She figured it wasn’t too serious… it was just a bite. After all, his muscles were so tough she even

complained her teeth hurt.

“Let’s go home.” Elgin said coolly, ever the ice king.

Okay. She picked up her bag and walked up to him.

He turned and led the way. It seemed like they were giving each other the silent treatment, neither

willing to utter an extra word.

Put Letitia would have to cave in eventually. She was no match for Elgin.

How’s your shoulder?” she asked

Tm not dead.

Letha posted. You could’ve told me, you know..That you didn’t get rid of my baby.”

would have bitten him.

Elgin didn’t even tum around, “The docs said you were in critical condition, that an abortion could’ve

killed you. I had to keep the kid to ensure you’d stay alive. to keep tormenting you.”

So that was the real deal, Letitia finally understood.

*I thought you suddenly grew a conscience, but turns out, you just wanted to keep me around as your

punching bag”

“Good that you get it.”

Letitia followed him out of the hospital. After a moment’s thought, she said. “I’d like to visit my mother.

She’ll be upset if she doesn’t see

me for so long”

“No.”

“You won’t let her take her meds, and now you want to deny me the right to see her?”

Elgin finally stopped, turned, and looked at her, “In my world, you have no rights, only obedience!*

Letitia chuckled lightly, “What, you want me to jump in the lake again?”

“Don’t you dare!”

“Let me see my mother.” She insisted. “That’s my only request.”

Elgin’s face darkened further before he finally said, “Half an hour, no more.”

“Deal!” No matter how short, she had managed to fight for a chance to see her mother.

In her mind, Letitia planned to visit her dad in prison next, to share the good news that her mom had

woken up.

She still had ten grand on her. She could give half to her dad and save the rest for emergency.

Once she got her paycheck next month, she could pay back Elgin’s twenty grand

She didn’t want to owe him a thing.

As for her mom’s meds…

Letitia thought, she’d find a way, she’d do whatever it takes to get her mom the lifesaving drugs.

While she was deep in thought, she heard Shela’s syrupy voice, “Mr. Ramirez!”

Great, here she is Letitia didn’t want to see her. She kept her head down to avoid attention.

Shela threw a glance her way, ostentatiously clinging to Elgin’s arm, “I heard you hurt your shoulder,

how is it? Does it hurt? And you caught a cold too, oh dear, why don’t you take better care of yourself?”

“It’s nothing.”

Letitia was surprised. She had caused the bite on his shoulder, but Elgin had a cold too?

What was that about?

“I made some soup for you,” Shela said with feigned concern, “You’ve been ignoring me these days,

I’ve missed you so much.”

Elgin frowned and pulled his arm back.

“Samson has lined up plenty of opportunities for you. If you want to act, then act,” he said with a cold

look, “Otherwise, all the resources in the world won’t save you.

Letitia couldn’t help but chime in. Seems like Shela doesn’t have the luck to become top.”

“Hmph, Letitia, whatever you say, I’m still better off than you!”

“That’s debatable. If I had your resources, I’d have become an A-list actress by now.”

Letitia, after all, was a beauty in any crowd.

Fair-skinned, curvy in all the right places, with long hair and delicate features, she was a true goddess.

Even with minimal makeup, she was dazzling.

Shela, on the other hand, was all thick makeup, her face looked stiff from all the Botox.

“Letitia, get real, will ya? You can’t even spit your lines out smoothly.” Shela snorted. “As if Mr. Ramirez

would help you!”

Letitia just shrugged it off, not in the mood to pick a fight.

A pregnant lady’s gotta keep her emotions in check, after all.

And for someone like Shela? Not worth it.

“Enough Elgin cut in oily Tve been swamped lately, give me a break from the hassle.”

Ramirez, are you annoyed by me?*
