Taming The CEO The Escaping Wife

Chapter 35

Phedra was totally flabbergasted, “What?”

‘Fake?” Letitia was shocked too. But…Shela even wore it to show off in front of her.

What’s going on?

Gritting her teeth, Shela said. “Yes, it was fake. I…I just bought it to mess around, as a piece of accessary!” She just wanted to flaunt it in front of Letitia, but who knew she’d end up drawing Phedra’s attention!

Then where’s the real one?” Phedra immediately asked, “Elgin, you didn’t pass it off to some side chick, did you?”

Letitia was curious too.

“It’s always been with me.” Elgin’s face darkened, “How did you find Shela’s?”

Phedra pointed at Letitia. “She told me! Said you gave it to another woman and even gave me the address.”

Hearing this, Shela screamed, “Well, well, so it was you! You did this on purpose!”

Letitia coolly explained, “You were the one who said Elgin gave you the emerald bracelet, I just spilled the beans, that’s all. Who knew you were wearing a fake?

She even breathed a sigh of relief. Thank goodness, it didn’t end up in Shela’s hands.

“I never said the emerald bracelet was the one Mr. Ramirez bought at the auction!” Shela squirmed, “Mr. Ramirez, you’ve got to back me up here!

Sharp as Elgin was, he had already figured out the whole story.

And Letitia, that cunning woman, must have used this situation against both Shela and Phedra.

“Enough,” he said sternly, “I’m not giving this emerald bracelet to anyone!”

Phedra left reluctantly.

“Mr. Ramirez, Shela stomped her foot, “You can’t just let this slide.” She glared at Letitia, unwilling to let it go. She had been played and she was going to get even!

Clutching Elgin’s arm, Shela said, “Letitia did it on purpose, she’s always been out to get me. If you hadn’t come in time today, who knows what that wicked stepmother would’ve done to me! Look, I even got scratched!”

Elgin remained silent, directing only a glance at Letitia, which was enough to make her heart flutter.

Elgin usually gave in to every one of Shela’s requests. This time…maybe he would punish her.
