Chapter 100

Letitia nodded and sald with gratitude, “Okay, okay, I got It.”

Thank God The baby’s still there. She joyfully lifted her hand to wipe away her tears.

But Elgin suddenly grabbed her chin fiercely. “Letitia, why the hell does your kid get to live?!”

The same fall, the same tumbling down the stairs, his and Shela’s kid was gone.

And Letitia comes out unscathed? That’s just not fair!

Forced to look up. Letitia met his gaze. “The baby Shela was carrying… didn’t make it?”

“That’s right!”

“I get where you’re coming from; being a dad for the first time, you must’ve been dreaming about what it’s like to have a kid,” she said. *But seriously, it wasn’t my doing. I didn’t do anything.”

Elgin gritted his teeth, veins popping on his forehead, and enunciated every word-

“It was you who fell and dragged Shela down the steps with you. I saw it clear as day! You’ve been out to get her, it’s been on your mind for ages!”

Letitia shook her head, her voice soft but resolute, “I didn’t.”

“No means no. If I messed up, I’d own it, I’d apologize. But if it’s not my fault, I’m not taking the rap for it!” Letitia thought

“Letitia, your Sanders family now owes me two lives, Elgin looked straight into her eyes, “and that’s a debt you can never repay!”

There was a sadness in Letitia’s eyes as she met his gaze. Truth is, the Sanders family didn’t owe him a single life.

“I swear, I’d curse myself, Letitia said, “if I, Letitia, had even the slightest intention of harming Shela’s baby, then may I be struck by lightning, die a horrible death, and never be reincarnated!” She spat out each word with conviction, her gaze unwavering.

Elgin thought, if he hadn’t seen with his own eyes the moment they both fell, maybe he would ve believed Letitia.

“Your act doesn’t work on me, Elgin released her, “Get up and go back with me!”
