Chapter 161

Letitia glanced around, making sure the coast was clear, and then tugged at Vidonia’s sleeve. “There’s something I’ve gotta spill the beans on.”

“Shoot.”

“I found the guy from that night.”

Vidonia widened her eyes in shock. “Who is it? How’d you get in touch? You sure it’s him?”

“Positive.” Letitia nodded, “Everything checks out.”

“Who?”

“Elgin.”

Vidonia stared at Letitia, her eyes glued open in disbelief. “Say what now?”

“It’s him, no doubt about it,” Letitia confirmed. “After I got my new earbuds, I overheard the conversation between Shela and my mom. That’s how I found out.”

Vidonia sat next to Letitia, totally gobsmacked.

This was just too much to handle.

So much information to take in.

“Give me a second to wrap my head around this… If it’s Elgin, then that means… He’s the father of your child, and he… he got rid of your baby himself!?!”

Letitia nodded again.

Every time they talked about it, it was like ripping off a band-aid for her.

“Good heavens, my poor Letitia…” Vidonia wrapped her in a hug, “Don’t be too down about it.”

The one person who always got her was her best friend forever.

“Acting like it doesn’t sting would be a straight-up lie. I need time to heal,” Letitia patted her shoulder, “It’s cool.”

“How can it be cool, huh? Letitia, I’m with you through thick and thin.”

Out of nowhere, Samson popped up beside them.
