Chapter 137

Elgin stayed silent.

“Don’t tell me… your like them both? Do you wanna keep both irons in the fire? No way, Gin. Given Shela’s looks, character, and personality.. you’d have to be blind to fall for her.”

Samson gritted his teeth Elgin just used him and then showed him the door! What a ruthless man!

“Aren’t you leaving? Elgin asked. “Wanna stick around for a meeting, or do you have clients to see or a trip to take?”

Samson vanished in the blink of an eye.

Elgin rested with his eyes closed the whole ride.

The doc quietly did his thing, changing the bandage.

The car ride was enveloped in a heavy silence.
