Chapter 87

Maybe it’s just wishful thinking on her part

“Yeah, the child I’m carrying doesn’t hold a candle to Shela’s precious one,” Letitia responded, “She’s lucky, caught your eye in a heartbeat, living the life of luxury. How could I ever compare?*

Elgin replied nonchalantly. “If you were carrying my child, you’d be living even better than her.”

But how could that ever happen? He hasn’t laid a finger on her, and doesn’t plan to anytime soon

As Elgin walked towards the walk-in closet, he heard Letitia’s whisper-soft voice, murmuring like a mosquito, “What if there was no bad blood between us, would you fall for me?

Letitia ruffled her hair, wondering if she had knelt for too long causing poor circulation and making her brain slow, to even ask

such a question.

Love? There’s no love between them. It’s all hatred.

He hates her, and she hates him even more. They had been torturing each other without mercy.
