Chapter 174

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

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

The butler nodded, “Yes. The only word Mr. Ramirez has uttered during his unconscious state has been ‘Letty.””

So no one was better suited than Letitia.

After a moment of contemplation, Hawley let out a sigh, “Alright, get Letitia over here!”

Upon hearing it, the butler was over the moon.

“But the second Elgin wakes up, she’s outta here,” Hawley added, “That’s the deal!”

Phedra wasn’t thrilled and shot the butler a nasty glare.

At the Ivory Towers, Letitia stood by the window, looking out at the sky.

Three days had passed already. Why hadn’t Elgin woken up….

His arm was injured and he had blood transfusions in time. He should have been up by now.

Too bad she couldn’t be by his side, all she could do was fret.

Suddenly, a car pulled in, and the bodyguard hurried over, “Ma’am.”

Letitia turned to him, “What’s up? Is Elgin awake?”

“You are agreed to be with Mr. Ramirez at the hospital.”

Rushing to the hospital room, Letitia found only the butler there.

“Ma’am, you’ve arrived.”

“Yep!” She nodded, “How’s Elgin?”

“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.
