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.

The doc quietly did his thing, changing the bandage.

The car ride was enveloped in a heavy silence.
