Chapter 176

At the same time, she couldn’t forget Elgin’s brave figure when he saved her.

Elgin was adamant, saying, “I’m not gonna let you slip away.”

No one could stand in his way. Anything hindering their love would be tackled.

He wanted her and only her.

“Letty, you’ve got feelings for me too,” Elgin stressed, “When Shela was holding you hostage, you didn’t want -me to kneel or to hurt myself… At that moment, you were all about me. Those feelings are real, and I’ll never

forget it.”

It was also her objection and her consideration for him that encouraged Elgin to rescue her at all costs.

Letitia shook her head, “No… I just didn’t want to owe you!”

How on earth did you repay a life-saving debt?!

“Shela kidnapped you because of me,” Elgin sighed, “Truth be told, I owe you and I didn’t keep you safe.”

Letitia was about to say something else when he suddenly dipped his head and pecked her lips swiftly.

She was stunned. Why did he just steal a kiss?

“I can’t gag you, so I had to kiss you,” Elgin said, “Letty, let’s drop it.”

“You..”

Elgin bent down again and kissed her once more.

Letitia glared at him, annoyed. What kind of sorcery was this?

But Elgin was smug as could be. Hmm, at least he had found a way to keep her quiet.

Just kiss her every time she talked.

“Did they stitch up the wound on your face? Will it scar?” Elgin’s eyes fell on her injury as he gently caressed it.

“…Yeah.”

Elgin tensed up instantly, “What? Did the doctor say so himself?”

“Yes, the cut on my cheek is too deep, scarring is inevitable. The ones on my neck aren’t as bad.”
