Taming The CEO The Escaping Wife

Chapter 136

Elgin nodded and picked up the fruit knife lying nearby. “Throw it out. From now on, nothing sharp is allowed in this room. Nothing”

He had known all along that Letitia had stashed a blade under her pillow, but he kept mum and didn’t confiscate it.

Because Elgin thought.. if she was planning to off him with it, he’d give her the shot.

Who’d have guessed that, Letitia would flip the script and try killing herself instead of him.

Elgin’s palm was swathed in layers of bandages.

Yet, even so, blood had soaked through, painting the bandages red.

“I’m not taking you down, and you’re not letting me die,” Letitia’s voice floated in the air, light as a feather, “Elgin, do you plan to stick with me forever?”

“Yeah.”

“What’s the point?”

His voice was heavy as lead, “Because you gotta stick by me.”

Letitia bit her lower lip. “But I don’t love you, I hate you. And I can’t even deal with your love!”

“Hate me all you want my love for you is plenty.”

Letitia challenged him, “Aren’t you scared that one day, I’ll take a stab at your heart again?”

Hearing this. Elgin actually cracked a smile, “I gotta remind you of something, unless I let it happen, nobody can touch me. You got to hurt me this time because I allowed it, get it?”

“Elgin, how does it feel to have everything under your thumb, huh?”

Letitia glared at him hard. Everything under his control, his eagle eye never missing a beat.

No surprises, no slip-ups, does that feel good for him?

“I can’t control you Elgin answered, “Letitia, you’re the wild card in my life.”

He stood up, eye to eye with her, “And you know what? I gave you the chance to do me in, to snatch my heart. But you didn’t seize it, so…
