Taming The CEO The Escaping Wife

Chapter 179

He knew that if he backed down in front of his grandpa again, his marriage to Letitia would only face fiercer opposition from the Ramirez farnily!

So he couldn’t give an inch but come out on top!

Staring out into the night from his window, Elgin thought that a happy marriage should come with the family’s blessing perhaps.

Hmm… He was determined to fight for Letitia. That day would come.

The next day, at eight o’clock.

Elgin anticipated it correctly – the faint rhythm of familiar footsteps outside the ward announced Letitia’s arrival. Recognizing her distinct gait, he had no doubt it was her.

But Letitia stood at the door of the ward, hesitating for a long time before she pushed it open.

She had been woken up early in the morning and driven here, with no one bothering to tell her what was going

She had no clue what had happened.

But Letitia could guess that there must have been some sort of showdown between Hawley and Elgin. While one was attempting to keep her distanced from Elgin, the other was longing for her presence.

“Come in, what are you dawdling for?” Elgin asked. “Do you need me to come get you?”

Startled, Letitia hurried inside.

Elgin watched her every move, with his gaze following her wherever she went.

“What’s the big rush getting me here first thing in the morning?” Letitia asked with a cool expression, “There are doctors and nurses here, they don’t need me.”

She had to be a bit colder, a bit more ruthless, so she wouldn’t be swayed by Elgin’s tender approach.

“…I wanted to see you:

“Oh.” Letitia stood far from the bed, her eyes darting around everywhere but at him.

At the sight of her nonchalance, Elgin squinted his eyes, “What did grandpa say to you?”

“Nothing.”

“Don’t lie to me.”

“There’s nothing to tell,” Letitia responded, “I’ve been at Ivory Towers the whole time.”

Elgin said, “I’ll get you back to the company and return your freedom. But right now…”
