Chapter 89

“So…, Shela asked, “Can’t we just come clean to the Ramirez family now and tell them I’m pregnant? You and Letitia can get a divorce ahead of schedule!

“Not now.”

“Why not?”

Elgin answered, “There are still some things that need to be sorted out.”

Like, for instance, the baby Letitia’s carrying. That one was definitely not a keeper.

If she actually gave birth, what would that make him? A man who got cheated!

Shela wanted to ask more, but was afraid of upsetting Elgin, so she just nodded, “Okay, I’ll wait for you with the baby.”

“Mhm.”

“Actually, waiting isn’t what scares me. Shela tentatively said. “I’m afraid you might fall for Letitia.” As saying so, she eyed Elgin’s expression closely

That was Shela’s biggest worry. Because that night, the person who had really been with Elgin was Letitia. The one truly carrying the Ramirez family bloodline was also Letitia.

She feared that Elgin and Letitia might develop some uncontrollable feelings as they spent time together.

“I could never fall for her. Elgin said curtly. “It’s absolutely impossible.”

But was that statement for Shela’s benefit, or a reassurance for his own heart?

After spending half an hour with Shela, Elgin finally left. He knew exactly what he had to do next.

His marriage with Letitia had just over a month left… Once the divorce agreement took effect, they wouldn’t live under the same roof or share a bed anymore.

Nor would there be anyone who could so easily ignite his raging temper.
