Chapter 76


    Soon after, Sh snapped back to reality giggling behind her hand like she was in quite the act. “Oops,


    you caught me in the act. I’m feeling embarrassed.”


    Letitia stood there like a statue, at a loss for words about the situation.


    Elgin had a thing for Sh, which was no news to her. What else could one expect to happen when a


    man and a woman were together? Nothing but a roll in the hay.


    But Letitia remembered Elgin saying he wouldn’t have sex with Sh until he was divorced. He had


    made it crystal clear. Why the sudden change of heart?


    Letitia felt a sharp pain in her chest, struggling to breathe. She had no right and was in no ce to care


    about this.


    After all, Elgin never loved her. Her title as Mrs. Ramirez was nothing but a sham! Why should she be


    so upset? It didn’t make any sense!


    Despite her best efforts to keep a poker face, her paleplexion gave away her inner turmoil.


    Sh couldn’t be more smug. “Could you step out for a moment? I need to slip into something more


    decent. I’m not presentable like this. Mr. Ramirez is pooped, and let’s not wake him. We can talk


    outside if you’ve got something to say.”


    “You guys…”


    “It’s what it looks like, Sh said, her cheeks flushed, “Mr. Ramirez is so wild in bed.


    Letitia took a deep breath.


    Elgin had called her here to witness this scene. Was this his twisted way of humiliating her, getting


    under her skin?


    Well, she wasn’t about to let people walk all over her!


    Just as Sh was about to get out of bed, Letitia charged forward and yanked the covers off.


    Elgin was only in his boxers, and Sh was stark naked.


    “Ah!” Sh screamed, “Letitia, what the hell are you doing?”


    Letitia couldn’t care less about Sh. Her goal was to wake Elgin up!


    With such amotion, of course, Elgin stirred awake. His eyes snapped open, bloodshot from sleep.


    “Letitia?” He seemed disoriented for a moment as he saw the woman before him


    “It’s me.” She gave a wry smile. “You texted me toe over, so here I am. And as you wished, I saw


    you and Sh making out. Mr. Ramirez, is there anything else you’re not satisfied with?”


    Did she say she had seen him and Sh making out? Elgin sat up, realizing something was off. Where


    were his clothes?


    Next to him, Sh was covering herself up, her neck marked with bruises.


    Even a fool could guess what had happened.


    Seeing Elgin’s confused look, Sh quickly took the offensive. “Mr. Ramirez, we were soundly asleep


    until Letitia barged in and pulled the covers off us. What’s this all about?”


    “What’s this about?” Elgin’s face turned to ice. “I’m asking you what the hell is all this!”


    He remembered asking her to leave him alone, wanting a rest in bed, and waiting for Letitia to show up.


    And what now? Where were his clothes?


    Sh pouted, ying the victim. You were drunk, Mr. Ramirez. While I was looking after you, you


    suddenly grabbed my hand and wouldn’t let go, and then…well…”


    Eigin massaged his temples. He was drunk, with no recollection, but everything in the room screamed


    about what had happened before!


    “Huh, Letitia scoffed sarcastically. “Elgin, is that the ‘I’m innocent’ face? Wasn’t this exactly what you


    had in mind by calling me


    here?”


    She had always despised Sh for being the other woman and even unted her Mrs. Ramirez status


    to throw her weight around Elgin must feel sorry for Sh, wanting to back Sh up with actions. Was


    that so?


    Son’s frown deepened.


    What was done was done. Even if he couldn’t remember, it wouldn’t change the facts.


    Sewing Let’s mocking face, Elgin spoke coldly, “I called you here, not into the bedroom!”


    Well, sorry about that, it be on my way.”


    i spun on her heel, not wanting to spend another second there!


    Property of N?)(velDr(a)ma.Org.


    grew even angret, shouting “Stop right there!”


    the didn’t listen but kept walking


    Try to walk out that door. I dare you!”


    Honestly. Elgin was at a loss, too. Things had spun way out of control. He didn’t intend to get physical


    with Sh so soon, and not in front of Letitia!


    But Elgin was always cool and calm, a mastermind who wouldn’t let anyone read him easily So, he


    wouldn’t let Letitia see what


    he was thinking


    “I don’t want to disturb you two,” Letitia said with her back to him. “It’s my fault for interrupting your


    sweet dream. After all, you and Sh must be exhausted”


    Elgin got out of bed, picking up his shirt nonchntly and putting it on.


    His emotions and rationality were slowlying back


    If you’ve seen it all might as well watch a bit longer,” he said indifferently, “Don’t leave.”


    Letitia clenched her palms fiercely


    Her husband had shared a bed and had sex with another woman, and he made her see it, which was


    humiliation and a disgrace!


    It was trampling on her dignity, a p in the face!


    “Elgin Letitia had had enough, turning to face him. “I know you don’t love me, and I know you married


    me for other reasons. But at least right now, at this very moment, I am your wife! What you’re doing is


    infidelity and betrayal! Have you spared a single thought for my feelings?”


    Elgin remained eerily calm, his voice light as a feather. “I didn’t mean for you to see it. You barged in on


    your own.”


    “So you are saying this is my fault? asked Letitia.


    “Otherwise is it mine?” said Elgin.


    Elgin buttoned up, his demeanor unfazed, and even bent down to pick up Sh’s clothes and handed


    them to her. “Put these on.”


    “Mr. Ramirez, Sh said in a pitiful tone, This isn’t right. Letitia’s still your wife, and what am I?”


    “It’ll be yours eventually replied Elgin.


    That statement was like twisting the knife in Letitia’s heart. She stood there numbly, lowering her gaze.


    Sh got dressed and clung to Elgin’s arm. “Mr. Ramirez, it’s sote. Are you leaving?”


    “Yeah.”


    “Why don’t you just stay and let Letitia…”


    Tm the one who asked her toe over,” Elgin cut Sh off, yanking his hand back.


    Sh looked bummed and hurt


    Seeing her like that, Elgin dropped the tough guy act and exined gently, “Ivory Towers is under


    Grandpa’s watchful eye. Can’t stick around and keep youpany for now.”


    “Alright then” Sh nodded. “Mr. Ramirez, we’ll get our chance someday, we’ve got a lifetime ahead of


    us!”


    “Mhm,” Elgin grunted in response and strode toward the exit.


    As he passed by Letitia, he grabbed her wrist tightly. “Go”


    Letitia stumbled forward, almost tripping over herself.


    He was never one for treatingdies with tenderness!


    grip was so fierce and forceful that Letitia felt like her bones were aching.
