Chapter 38

Elgin bent down and helped Shela to her feet.

Years ago, because of Dr. Sanders’ screw-up, he had already lost a father he respected Now, history seemed to be chillingly repeating itself.

How could Elgin let Shela go through the same ordeal as him? After all, Mark was going to be his father-in-law.

“Letitia, you have to donate blood,” Elgin said, his eyes and brows icy cold, “You don’t have a say in this.”

There it was again. She was always at his beck and call, living like a puppet!

“So, whether it’s my fault or not, I have to donate blood to save him?” Letitia’s voice trembled as she asked, “Is that right?”

“Yes”

“Even if donating blood could seriously harm my health, you’d still insist on it?”

Elgin narrowed his eyes slightly. It’s just drawing blood, and you’ll recover after a couple of days.”

“Yeah, right, Shela chimed in quickly, “It’s not going to kill you or damage your health, Letitia, please save my father!”

Letitia didn’t buy that for a second. From the moment she met Mark, she had fallen into their trap!

Elgin didn’t know she was pregnant, but they were crystal clear about it! How could a pregnant woman donate blood? Besides, Shela would surely bribe the nurse to take a lot of her blood!

“Go now” Elgin ordered sternly, “Nurse, take her.”

Letitia turned and ran.

Elgin stood still, uttering just one sentence, “You know what the consequences of running away are.”

Her legs felt as if they were cemented to the ground, unable to lift. Her mother was in his hands, her father was in jail, and his injury from boiling water had just healed…

That was something Elgin had allowed Shela to do. He had Shela’s back.

‘It’s just a few vials of blood, it won’t cost you your life,” Elgin said. “Cooperate and it’ll be easier on you.”

Letitia closed her eyes in despair, “You’ll never understand.”

“What’s there to understand?” he asked, “Tell me.”

Shela echoed, “Yeah, tell us.”

She knew Letitia wouldn’t dare reveal her pregnancy!
