Chapter 56

Man, she’s putting on this act, complete with the whining voice and pouty face… To be honest, it’s kinda nauseating. Elgin was getting more and more fed up with her.

If it weren’t for that one night, and his promise to marry her, he wouldn’t give a second glance to a woman like Shela.

“Who did this to you?” he asked.

Shela blurted out, “Letitia!”

“Her?”

“Are you looking for me? What’s up?” Just then, Letitia strolled down the stairs, caught sight of Shela, and exclaimed in surprise, “Oh my god? Is your new movie role a beggar, Shela?”

Pointing at her, Shela snapped, “Cut the crap, Letitia! You know damn well why I ended up like this!”

“That so? I haven’t seen you all day. How would I know?”

“It was you! You’re the one who did this!”

Letitia wasn’t born yesterday Playing the innocent card? She could do that in her sleep!

“I have no clue what you’re talking about.” Letitia pinched her nose. “That stench is so strong, it’s like air pollution.”

Shela was so angry her face twisted, “Don’t play dumb with me. I know it was you who bagged me, beat me up, and dumped me in a garbage truck. No one else would pull this kind of stunt on me!”

“You’re spitting venom without proof. Do you have any evidence?”

“None! But it was definitely you, it had to be!”

Letitia just shrugged, “Seems like you’re slinging mud at me. Even you said you had a bag over your head, you couldn’t see a thing. Shela, you can’t just throw dirt on people like that”

Vidonia hit the nail on the head. Battling Shela was a contest of wills and shamelessness. Trying to reason with her proved to be an exercise in futility

“We can find out! Shela turned to Elgin, “Mr. Ramirez, you’re definitely capable of doing it, get someone to dig up the evidence, leave her speechless.”

Elgin just pursed his lips, silent.
