Chapter 62

She made it through, but how about her baby?

The nurse just left and won’t be back. Letitia’s voice was so soft and faint it couldn’t make it beyond the room.

She threw back the covers and struggled to get out of bed.

As soon as her feet touched the ground, they went all wobbly, and she nearly hit her knees.

Gritting her teeth, Letitia pushed on, “Nurse, my baby… how’s my baby…?”

Is he dead or alive?

She barely made it to the door when it swung open from the outside.

Looking up, Letitia locked eyes with Elgin’s deep gaze.

After a two-second stare down, she clenched his sleeve, shouting with every bit of her strength, “Elgin! Did you get rid of my baby… You must have done it!”

Her eyes were bloodshot and fiery red, staring straight at him.

Elgin could clearly see the hatred in her eyes. So intense.

She hated him. Yeah, she was supposed to hate him, like… he’d always hated her.

Out of hatred, Elgin had tossed Letitia into the loony bin. Out of hatred, all she wanted was to get the hell away from him.

Seeing Elgin remain silent, Letitia shook his arm desperately. “Answer me! My baby… you had no right! Why would you do that without my consent..”

“Elgin, that was a live, breathing soul. How could you bring yourself to do it?”

“While I was out cold, you just went ahead. You might as well have let me drown in the lake, let me and my baby go together!”

Her voice was hoarse with accusation, her fists pounding against Elgin’s chest.

But her feeble strength was nothing more than a tickle to him.

She even bit her lower lip until it bled.

Elgin finally spoke indifferently, “Letitia, maybe it was a mistake from the start.”

What mistake? I’m asking about my child, don’t change the subject!”
