Chapter 155

“Hawley, it’s because Letitia’s got a special status, you know. But the DNA tests showed the kid was Elgin’s. Too bad… Ah, it’s all gone now, no use crying over spilt milk.”

Only then did Letitia realize why Phedra had cooled her jets and stopped bouncing off the walls after getting

the results.

She had always thought that it was Vidonia who swiped the test tubes, screwing up the paternity test.

It turned out the test confirmed the kid was Elgin’s, which shut Phedra up for good!

“Alright, go check up on Malinda,” Hawley instructed, “I need a word with Letitia.”

Phedra nodded reluctantly and took off.

Clearly, Mr. Ramirez wanted to sideline her to dish some tea she wasn’t meant to hear.

Once Phedra was out of earshot, Hawley spoke up, “Letitia, I didn’t come here today to mess with your mom. On the contrary, I’m here to help you and her.”

“I’m not following you, Mr. Ramirez.”

“Let me cut to the chase,” Hawley said, eyeing her. “Elgin has his head over heels for you and insists on being with you regardless of anything. So… I need you to leave him.”

“I told you, I’m down for the divorce with nothing, but Elgin won’t let me go,”

“I know, and that’s why I’m offering to help, but you’ve got to play ball with me.”

Letitia stared unblinkingly at Hawley, “How can you help?”

“Dr. Sanders killed my son, and he’s an enemy of the Ramirez family, I won’t let that slide. But you and your mom are just caught in the crossfire,” Hawley began. “I’ll figure out a way to get you and your mom out of AquaCity for good, never to return, especially not popping up in front of Elgin!”

It was crunch time that Hawley was ready to make his move.

The rise and fall of the Ramirez family along with the interests of the Ramirez Group were now all in Elgin’s

hands.

Elgin couldn’t be shackled down by love, nor could he afford to show weakness over a woman!

And this woman, she’s the daughter of an enemy!
