Chapter 31

Letitia fell on the ground, and even heard her wrist snap like a twig It was dislocated.

The pain had her breaking out in cold sweats, “Elgin, I swear I didn’t betray you…”

“Shut it!” Elgin peeled off his suit jacket and roughly threw it over Letitia. Her half-bare shoulders were a sight for his eyes only! And now, now Walden got his grubby hands on her!

Damn it! They all can go to hell!

“This is just great, looks like you’ve cozied up to your ex in bed,” Elgin’s forehead veins were throbbing, “Letitia, I really underestimated you!”

Walden was also slowly coming to his senses, blurting out in a panic, “Mr. Ramirez, nothing happened between Letitia and me, you’ve misunderstood!”

“You call this a misunderstanding?”

“I don’t know what happened,” Walden recalled, “I was clearly at the auction, how did I end up in this hotel room?” His memory was a blank slate

Struggling to remember, Walden only caught glimpses, “A waiter handed me a drink, I drank it, and then… everything went black. Next thing I know, I’m waking up here.”

Elgin snorted, “So he gets wasted and you just came in to take care of him?”

“No, that’s not it, I didn’t even know Walden was in the room!”

“Then what are you doing here, huh?

“…” Letitia’s words stuck in her throat, stunned. She wanted to find out who the father of her child was, that’s why she was lured here. But she couldn’t let Elgin know that!

“What’s the matter? Can’t answer that?” Elgin snapped, gripping her chin hard, “Answer me!”

Letitia looked up at him, her eyes welling up with tears, “Elgin, nothing happened between Walden and me. This is all. someone else’s plot to frame me! Elgin, if you don’t believe me, we can go to the hospital for a check-up right now! See if I’ve been touched by a man tonight!”

Walden quickly added, “I’ll cooperate with any tests.”

“Yes,” Letitia said with resolve in her eyes, “the innocent have nothing to hide!”

Elgin’s gaze swept back and forth between the two. Even if Letitia had the guts of a burglar, she wouldn’t dare betray him, but this scene had indeed unfolded.
