Chapter 39

She opened her eyes and heard Shela say, “Finally awake, huh? Tough cookie, aren’t you? Looks like we can take a bit more blood from you.”

“You still want my blood!”

“Oh, come on, don’t play innocent. Your little stunt landed my dad in the hospital with a stroke, so you’ve got to own up to it. Donating blood is the least you can do, and Mr. Ramirez agrees

Letitia struggled to sit up, “What a sick play you and your father have put on!”

“Yep, serves you right for being so gullible and for insisting on keeping that baby!” Shela walked over to the bedside, “Letitia, if you just play ball and get rid of it, I could let you off the hook.”

She clenched her teeth, “Not happening.”

This child was her own flesh and blood, she wanted to keep it.

“Shela, you’re so hell-bent on me getting rid of the child because of the father, right?” Letitia guessed.

Letitia smirked sarcastically, The ones with no shame are you and your father. I was just fine in the psych ward; it was. you who shipped me off to that hotel!”

“That didn’t mean you could just sleep with any guy!”

“Shela, if I spill the beans to Elgin…”

“You wouldn’t dare!” Shela shrieked, “Then I’ll reveal your pregnancy and have Mr. Ramirez get rid of the child himself!”
