Chapter 41

At the hospital, after getting her blood drawn, Letitia used the excuse of heading to the restroom to sneak off to the OB-GYN department. She got the doc to prescribe her a bunch of meds to prevent a miscarriage and crammed them

into her bag.

She was busting her butt, trying to stay alive, for herself and for her baby.

Just as Letitia left the OB-GYN, she bumped into Shela in the elevator,

“Done with the bloodwork?” Shela asked with a smirk, “You’re still standing tall, I see… Guess it means more of the

same tomorrow, huh?”

“In your dreams.” After seeing her mom, it was time to fight back. She couldn’t let Shela and her dad keep bleeding her dry, or the baby wouldn’t stand a chance!

Shela was brimming with confidence, “We’ll just see about that tomorrow.”

Letitia chuckled, “Sure, we’ll see.”

Stepping out of the elevator, her driver and bodyguard followed suit. They looked intimidating.

“Where do you think you’re off to? Shela asked, “And who are these guys tailing you?”

I’m Mrs. Ramirez I’m not some random chick like you.”

“Letitia!!” Shela shouted, fuming.

Letitia had already left.

Actually, these two were sent by Elgin to keep tabs on her, to monitor her bloodwork and her meeting with Malinda.

Shela watched Letitia’s retreating figure, “Heh, let’s see who will win in the end!”

She stealthily followed behind, sneaking around.

Letitia didn’t even know where her mother was. She watched the increasingly unfamiliar scenery pass by the car window, until they arrived at a posh private hospital in the suburbs. That’s when the driver finally said, “Ma’am, we’re
