Chapter 178

He glanced at the clock and casually asked, “What about her?”

“Mrs. Ramirez…” Ranen replied, “She’s at Ivory Towers,”

“Bring her over.”

“Uhh…”

Everyone and their dog knew that Hawley had laid down the law. No one was letting Letitia take one step out of Ivory Towers without his say-so!

Elgin raised an eyebrow, “What’s up? Got cotton in your ears?”

Ranen had a lightbulb moment and answered, “It’s pretty late, the missus must be… must be sleeping by now…” Bingo! What a killer excuse! Ranen felt like giving himself a standing ovation!

Sure enough, Elgin fell silent for a beat.

Yeah, it was almost the crack of dawn.

She must’ve been scared out of her wits these past few days, not exactly in tip-top shape.

After a moment of thought, Elgin said, “Get a doctor.”

“Right away, Mr. Ramirez.”

“I need to step out of the hospital for a bit, about two hours or so,” Elgin said. “Figure something out to secure the wound so I can get out of bed and move around.”

The doctor was speechless.

Ranen Was stunned.

Where the heck did Mr. Ramirez think he’s off to?

Something so critical he’d ditch his recovery?

“What are you spacing out for?” Elgin looked peeved. “Get on with it.”

“Mr. Ramirez, your arm’s in bad shape and needs a long time to heal. Since you’ve just woken up, how can you possibly…”

“That’s why I’m asking you to work your magic.”

Otherwise, he’d have already tossed aside the covers and hopped out of bed.
