Taming The CEO The Escaping Wife

Chapter 145

He leaned in close to her, saying, “This isn’t a discussion. Get on board with the baby-making plan, and you can head back to the company. Otherwise, you can play the little lady of leisure at home-I can afford to keep you.”

Classic Elgin. Always forcing her to do things she hates, using every trick in the book!

Letitia, grinding her teeth retorted, “Elgin, I despise you. Aren’t you afraid that if I do get pregnant with your child, I might intentionally miscarry just to get back at you, just to hurt you?*

After hearing her, he cracked a smirk, “No, you wouldn’t.”

“Yes, I would! Because I hate you!”

“What do you mean, ‘get pregnant with my child?” Elgin shot back, his voice deepening, “That child would also be yours-carrying half of your blood. Letitia, you couldn’t be that cruel.”

See, he had her figured out to a T

Right, even if Letitia hated Elgin to the core, she couldn’t bring herself to hate the child.

So… her only choice was not to get pregnant!

“Let’s get ready to have a baby,” Elgin whispered into her ear his breath warm against her skin, “to have a child that’s ours.”

Truth be told, he had his own agenda Elgin figured that once she was pregnant, once there was a child, Letitia would have no choice but to completely resign herself to staying by his side.

He was using the child to tie her down. They say a woman’s heart softens when she becomes a mother.

By then, for the sake of the child, Letitia’s hatred toward him would start to fade, bit by bit.

Letitia turned her head to dodge his affection.

Back at Ivory Towers, Letitia headed straight to the servants’ quarters without looking back.

Elgin watched her go in silence.

“Mr. Ramirez, didn’t you already move the madam’s belongings back to the master bedroom?” the butler asked. “Shall I call her back?”

“No need.”

Letitia had no clue about this. She pushed open the door to her room and found it completely empty. Her stuff was gone, leaving only the bare bones of a bed frame.
