Chapter 137

“Here’s what I think you should do, man-cut ties with Shela for good, Samson started dishing out advice. “What women need is security, a rock-solid choice, favoritism. If you wanna have a future with Letitia, you gotta break it off clean with Shela.”

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.”

“Got it,” Elgin finally spoke up. “You can go now.”

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 stood up, walked to the floor-to-ceiling windows, and lit a cigarette, taking his time with it.

It wasn’t until ten at night that Elgin left the office

“Mr. Ramirez, your hand needs a new dressing.

“Get the car ready, head to Breezy Bay Condos, he instructed. “Have the doc come to the car for the dressing change”

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.
