Chapter 65

Elgin was heading to the car when he said, “Also, Samson will support your acting career, so don’t be too picky. If you tick him off, there is be no one to hold your hand through Hollywood!”

Shela let out a reluctant “Oh with a hint of discontent.

Just as she was feeling sorry for herself, Letitia breezed past her.

“Hey, what are you up to?” Shela grabbed Letitia. “Where do you think you’re going?”

“You, you..”

Letitia chuckled, “What’s with the ‘you, you? I’m Mrs. Ramirez, hitching a ride home with my hubby. That’s just how things roll, right?”

Shela was fuming mad again.

Letitia was caught off-guard for half a second. Elgin was soaking wet? What’s up with that?

She was about to continue her rant when the car window rolled down, and Elgin’s cool voice interrupted, “Get in the car.”

Letitia glanced at him a few times, then took the initiative to ask, “You got a cold?”

Elgin acted as if he didn’t hear her.
