Chapter 71

There were toy cars, cradles, cribs, toys, rag dolls, Lego blocks, diapers…If it wasn’t for the car being too small, Hawley would’ve hauled the whole baby store over here!

“Only got these for now,” Hawley said, “We can start decking out the kid’s room. I’ve bought things for both genders as we don’t yet know whether it’s a boy or a girl.”

Letitia was guilty as she looked at the cute little dresses and pricey toys.

If only the baby in her belly was Elgin’s… That would’ve been just perfect.

But that thought flickered through her mind for only a brief moment. Because she could feel Elgin next to her was downright scary!

Letitia sneaked a peek at his face.

Elgin had his brows knitted together. “No need, Grandpa”

The servants froze in their carry.

“How can we not need them? We’ll have to buy them sooner or later, Hawley insisted. “I’m free as a bird anyways, might as well keep busy.

He grabbed his cane and went off to supervise the setting up of the kid’s room.

Phedra didn’t follow, her eyes brimming with envy and confusion.

“It’s just having a kid, what’s the big deal?” Phedra scoffed with disdain, even giving the crib a spiteful kick, “Whether it’s a great-grandson of the Ramirez family or not is still up in the air!”

She couldn’t believe that Elgin who took the drugged soup she sent every day would be a father-to-be!

There had to be something fishy!

“Are you jealous? Elgin stepped up to her, oozing intimidation, “Phedra, in this lifetime, you and your blockhead son won’t stir up a ripple in the Ramirez family.”

“You why bring this up out of the blue?”

“Just a friendly reminder. Take good care of Grandpa and be the dutiful Mrs. Ramirez before I decide to revenge against you.”
