Chapter 174

He leaned in close, listened intently, and confirmed that Elgin was murmuring “Letty.”

“Who’s Letty?” Hawley asked, “Could it be… Letitia?!”

“His vitals are improving, but he’s still out cold.”

Letitia sat by the bed, her palm gently resting on the back of his hand.

She dared not move too much for fear of touching his wounds.

Elgin murmured again in his sleep.
