Chapter 83

That same night he spent with Shela, he had just been diagnosed with a low sperm count

Logically speaking, the odds of her getting knocked up were pretty slim

But slim doesn’t mean impossible. That’s what he had thrown back at Phedra when she spoke up. And he didn’t expect that it actually happened

“Well, if that’s the case, then let’s take good care of it, Elgin said. “It’s my kid, and I’ll step up.”

“You sticking around?”

*Of course, I’m sticking around.”

Shela beamed, got up, and threw her arms around his neck. That’s awesome, Mr. Ramirez, I was worried… that you wouldn’t want the baby”

Elgin paused, then patted her shoulder gently, “How could I not?”

Thad no clue I was pregnant. I was scared you’d think I kept it under wraps on purpose, just to force you to marry me.” As she said this, Shela glanced at Letitia, then looked away, shrinking back a bit.

Biting her lip, she said. “But you’re married to Letitia now, and this kid’s got no name, no status. What should we do… it’s all because I’m just a lowly nobody”

Elgin didn’t hesitate, “Her? She’s nothing”

Letitia kept her head down, quiet, acting like she wasn’t even there. She was the odd one out.

Elgin had called her over just to humiliate her and show off how well he treated Shela.

Shela coord, “Mr. Ramirez, our child is definitely going to be a cut above the rest, right? Even though I’m not exactly your wife right now, things will get better!”

“Yeah You just focus on taking care of yourself, and leave the rest to me.

Shela nestled into his embrace, Mr Ramirez, you’re the best”

“I’ll take care of everything,” Elgin said “No one’s gonna stand in the way of you and the kid”
