Chapter 156

“What’s up with you?” Elgin asked, “Spit it out, will you? Sniffling and whining… is not a good look!”

Letitia sniffled, “I’ll tell you, just… not sure where to start.”

“Spill whatever comes to mind!”

Mopping up her tears haphazardly, Letitia blurted out, “Elgin, what exactly happened between you and Shela?”

“Why are you bringing this up all of a sudden?”

“Just answer me.” Letitia locked eyes with him, “It’s important.”

Elgin, however, looked away, “I’ll handle problems between me and Shela. It’s none of your business.”

With that, he was about to turn to leave.

But Letitia grabbed the hem of his shirt, holding on tight, “Il already know everything. The night before you picked me up from the AquaCity Psychiatric Institute, you and Shela hooked up at the hotel, didn’t you?”

Elgin sharpened his gaze instantly, “How did you find out?”

Letitia continued, “That night, you were drugged, alone in your room. Then, out of the blue, Shela barges in seeking refuge and you two slept together by accident.

It was pitch black in the room and you couldn’t see her face and didn’t know who the other was. Plus, when you woke up the next day, she was gone. You started searching high and low for Shela.

Until one of your guys reports back that they found Shela. That night, Mark had pawned her off to a geezer. She’d rather die than submit, so she bolted and by some fluke ended up in your room. Then you found Shela and promised to marry her. Because she saved you with her body…”

At this point, Letitia bit her lower lip, “Elgin, am I right?”

He countered, “How do you know all this? Did Shela tell you?”

“Pffft… how would she ever share that with me?”
