Chapter 105

“No need. Just bring me the first aid kit.”

He sat on the couch with a poker face, cool as a cucumber while tending to his own wound.

It was dead silent around; nobody dared to disturb him.

White gauze wrapped around his hand, Elgin casually tied a knot and suddenly asked, “How’s the situation with the prison?”

The butler didn’t catch on at first, “Prison? Oh… Mr. Ramirez, are you talking about Dr. Sanders?”

“Who else would I be referring to?”

Dr Sanders has been locked up, haven’t heard any fuss about him.”

Elgin’s lips curled into a chilly smirk, “Tomorrow moming, bring him here.”

The butler’s heart skipped a beat, but he could only reply, “Yes, Mr. Ramirez.”

Getting up, Elgin kicked the first aid kit away and headed upstairs, agitated.

The butler froze for two seconds, then snapped out of it and hurried off to take care of business.

Letitia freshened up, had a quick breakfast, and was ready to head to work.

Just a few steps out, she spotted a figure standing at the villa’s entrance from afar. He looked familiar.

On a closer look, her expression changed completely, and her bag dropped to the ground.

Letitia rushed forward in a panic, “Dad!”

Hearing her voice, Preston also turned around, “Letitial”

They embraced each other.

Whenever Letitia visited her father in jail, they were separated by thick glass she could see him but couldn’t touch him. She never thought there would come a day when they could meet like this, breathing the air of freedom!

“Dad, how come you’re here?” Letitia was both shocked and overjoyed. “Were you released as innocent?”

“I don’t know, someone picked me up early this morning and then brought me here.”
