Chapter 36

Elgin knew Hawley’s little game too well. He knew that Letitia had no backings, and she could be a tool for passing on the family name, nothing more.

Letitia was taken aback and asked, “Did you agree?”

“What a joke,” Elgin snorted. “You’re not worthy of bearing my children.”

She breathed a sigh of relief. She was already pregnant, how could she possibly get pregnant again?

“I get it,” Letitia nodded. “I’ll play along, and not give your grandpa any reason to be suspicious.”

Seeing her look so chill about it, Elgin was irked on the inside.

“Are you dumb or something, Letitia?” he closed in on her, pinning her against the wall, “You should be dying to have my

baby.”

She immediately shook her head, “No, I don’t.

“Ever thought that maybe, just maybe, I’d treat you a bit better for the kid’s sake? Maybe your dad in jail and your sick mom could bask in their grandchild’s glow?”

Letitia met Elgin’s gaze. It sounded pretty tempting.

A few seconds later, she shook her head with a bitter smile, “No chance. Elgin, with your tactics, if I had your baby, you’d just take the kid for yourself, sever all ties with the Sanders family, and he’d never even know who his mom is!”

Letitia was smart, and she knew Elgin well.

Elgin was even more annoyed, having his thoughts read like an open book. He grabbed her chin, looking down at her rosy lips, his irritation grew as he leaned in and just went for it.

His kiss was almost like a bite, the pain making Letitia gasp for air.

She tried to pull back, but Elgin had a firm grip on the back of her head.

“Even if I did fuck you,” Elgin said, “I’d be watching you pop birth control pills. Got it?”

He turned and strode into the bathroom, turning on the cold shower.

Every time he kissed Letitia, he got aroused. Damn it!
