Chapter 139

What she wanted was to give her dad a legit freedom, an ironclad exoneration

Elgin tugged at his tie, his Adam’s apple bobbing. He couldn’t give it to her? What a jokel

He stood at the pinnacle of power, calling the shots, getting whatever he wanted, how could he possibly not have what Letitia wanted!

It’s just that he couldn’t give it!

“Play nice, Letitia,” Elgin said, “make some demands I can agree to, it’s only gonna do you good. Don’t try to make unreasonable demands.

“Who asked you to stop me from stabbing myself?”

Elgin caught her hand and pulled her into his embrace, wrapping his arms around her waist.

Letitia ended up sitting on his lap. Their breaths intertwined, faces close

“Your life is mine, I didn’t let you die, so you can’t die,” Elgin said. “If I want you to live, even if it means sacrificing myself, I’ll make sure

you survive.
