Chapter 177

Stuff like Shela’s kidnapping couldn’t happen again. No ifs, ands, or buts!

Outside the hospital.

Letitia had just stepped out when a black Mercedes van rolled up.

“Ma’am, please get in,” the bodyguard said respectfully. “We’ll take you back to Ivory Towers.”

Hawley kept tabs on her, not giving her an inch of freedom to move.

Letitia nodded and was about to get in when she heard Vidonia, “Letitia!”

The bodyguard blocked her right away.

“What’s the big idea?” Vidonia pushed past him, “Who the heck are you guys?”

Letitia reached out and pulled Vidonia into the car, “Let’s go, forget about her.”

“No way, Elgin’s got this many people watching you?”

“It’s not his people. It’s Hawley.”

Vidonia clicked her tongue twice, “These rich folks play mind games!”

“Why are you at the hospital?” Letitia asked, “Looking for me?”

“Yeah, do you think I’m here to visit Elgin? Even though he saved you, the stuff he did before was still not forgivable.”

Letitia fell silent.

“Letitia, you’re not going soft on him, are you?” Vidonia pressed, “After this brush with death, you’ve got feelings for Elgin?”

“Actually… my feelings for him have been there for a long time.”

Letitia had feelings for Elgin when they made love at that night, and when she decided to have the baby.

When she found out that the stranger that night was Elgin, she realized she had fallen for Elgin.

But reality was too cruel and she was fated not to end up with him.

Letitia forced a bitter smile, “But how can I love him? As what? His wife? The enemy’s daughter? Or as the mother of that child who’s gone?”

“Letitia,” Vidonia held her hand, “The moment Elgin hurt you, he became unforgivable for life.”
