Taming The CEO The Escaping Wife

Chapter 26

“Got it. It’s just…” Letitia said, “I don’t have a dress for it.”

Elgin leaned back, eyes half-closed, eyeing her.

“Letitia, do you remember the first time we met?”

She hesitated, then nodded, “Yeah.”

More like seared into her soul, an unforgettable nightmare, because that marked the start of her living hell. Their first encounter was at AquaCity University, in the dean’s office.

Naive as she was, she walked in only to find Elgin in black. His presence was daunting – devilishly handsome with an air of menace.

“You’re Dr. Sanders daughter?”

“Yes.. yes

“Letitia Sanders?

“Yes

“Good” Elgin stood and approached, “Come with me.”

And that’s how he took control of her. So much so… she never got to say goodbye to Vidonia.

Elgin suddenly snorted, Tonight. I’ll take you shopping. Now, get out!”

He realized Letitia was still the same as when they first met, no big changes. She wasn’t crazy, not numb with despair, like a flower blooming among thorns, even more beautiful.

She shed her schoolgirl innocence for a woman’s allure, curves in all the right places.

Elgin closed his eyes, shaking the mess from his mind.

After work, Letitia sprinted to Elgin’s car, her face flushed with panic, terrified of being seen.

The car stopped at a high-end boutique.

But… everything here was pricey.

So, Letitia hesitated, “Are you sure you want to shop here for me?”

‘Yeah.”
