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.

Shela’s voice came through.

She listened while doodling design drafts with a pencil on paper.

unscathed?

Something was off.

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

Shela wasn’t a normal person, she was pregnant

Letitia was a pregnant woman, no doubt, and so was Shela
