Taming The CEO The Escaping Wife

Chapter 115

Neil’s entrance into her life was like this bouquet of flowers.

He was her ray of light, a savior in her darkest times.

In the evening, Letitia dragged her exhausted body back to Ivory Towers and after freshening up, as per usual, she popped on her headphones.

And why mention that after tumbling down the stairs, she was just in pain for a few days, while Letitia, a pregnant woman, seemed

unscathed?

Something was off.

Letitia held her breath, her brain whirring at top speed.
