Chapter 84

Letitia swung the car door open. “Elgin, I know who’s good to me, and I’m sure you ain’t on that list!”

After stepping out, she deliberately slammed the door with a bang.

Like Elgin’s the only one with a temper? What about her?

So, Letitia stopped a cab and said, “Could you catch up to that Rolls Royce up ahead?”

“You got it. Hold on tight!”

“How’s that for a ride, kiddo?” The driver was puffing his chest with pride. “Doesn’t matter how pricey the car is, it’s all about driving it like a pro!”

Letitia rolled down the window, looked at the Rolls Royce next to her, and gave the finger.

Inside, Elgin’s eyes narrowed. Just as he rolled down his window, the cab moved, zipping through traffic and vanishing from sight.

Elgin’s face turned dark. Well, well, Letitia’s really stepping up her game, daring to provoke him!
