Chapter 45

However, Letitia shook her head in firm refusal. “I’m a woman, and honestly, I have no business eating that.”

Elgin was so frustrated he felt like smashing the plate; there was no way he was going to eat it.

He decided to take matters into his own hands, picked up the piece with his fork, and held it to Letitia’s mouth, “Open up.”

Her lips clamped shut even tighter. But then, she caught a whiff of that dish.

It was indescribable, a really foul smell, thick with a fishy odor.

That smell churned her stomach, and a wave of intense nausea surged through her.

Just as Elgin was about to force it into her mouth, Letitia suddenly stood up. Clutching her mouth, she didn’t even make

it to the restroom and bent over a trash can, starting to heave.

The sound echoed throughout the entire dining room.

Elgin frowned at her, asking. Why do you always throw up?”

Letitia was retching so violently that tears streamed down her face; leaving her no chance to answer him.

Once the wave of nausea subsided a bit and she stood up, just one glance at the food sent her back into dry heave mode.

Elgin, sitting back with his legs crossed, watched her coolly, kindly passing her a glass of water.

After rinsing her mouth, Letitia felt a little better and looked for an excuse, “I… I just don’t really like this kind of food.”

Afraid Elgin might suspect something, she quickly added, “Really, I’ve always had a light palate since I was a kid.”

Elgin turned to the butler, “Did you hear that? She can’t stand the smell, get rid of it, and tell my grandpa to stop sending. it.”

“Yes.”

Elgin had also lost his appetite. He set down his fork and left.

Letitia cleaned her mouth and followed. If she was late, she’d miss her ride and would have to walk to work.

As soon as they left, the spy that Hawley had planted among the servants immediately went to report back.
