Chapter 47

Hawley took a couple of steps forward and reached out to grab it, “What’s this?”

The moment he saw it, he was over the moon, “Whoa! That’s the way to go, Letitia, you are pregnant!”

Elgin’s face darkened considerably.

Lost In his joy, Hawley was oblivious to the weird vibes and just kept yapping, “I just knew it, a woman

doesn’t just throw up for no reason. I’m going to have great-grandson!”

He pressed his hands together, his face alight with excitement and gratitude.

“Letitia, even though you’re the enemy of our Ramirez clan, a sinner, this is your golden ticket to

redemption. You better take good care of that kid, bring it into the world without a hitch!”

She didn’t know what to say just kept mum

“Did you hear me? Hawley’s face was stern as he said, “As long as you can keep the Ramirez legacy

going, I might just consider.. setting Dr. Sanders free.”

Elgin snapped, “Grandpa, what are you talking about!”

“The Sanders family took a life from the Ramirez clan, it’s only right they pay one back! You can’t bring

back the dead, so she’s gotta give birth! One, two, three, however many, as long as she can pop ’em

out, the Ramirez clan can foot the

bill!

Hawley was all about keeping the bloodline going. Now that Elgin’s career is sky-high, he needs an heir

to carry on the Ramirez empire.

Letitia asked, “So, if I have Elgin’s child, my father will be released?”

“Yes, Hawley nodded, “My word is bond. In this house, I still call the shots!”

At that moment, Letitia wished so bad that the baby was Elgin’s. That way, her father could walk free,

and the baby would be born with a silver spoon in its mouth, set for life.

But sadly… it wasn’t to be.

“I get it,” Letitia’s eyelashes fluttered, “I… I’ll do my best not to let you down.”

“What’s this ‘do my best’ nonsense, it’s a must, a must! Butler!”

“At your service, Mr. Hawley.”

“Make sure Letitia gets all the right nutrition during her pregnancy. If there’s any screw up, I’ll be

holding you

accountable!”

“Yes sir, the butler replied.

After more nagging, Hawley finally left, content. As soon as he was gone, Ivory Towers fell into a

silence as deep as the grave. Elgin’s eyes were even darker than the night.

He stood face to face with Letitia, with no one else around.

“Why didn’t you tell grandpa that the baby isn’t yours?” Letitia asked, “You had the chance just now.”

“In front of all those people, I’m supposed to announce that you’ve cheated on me?”

Proud and noble Elgin, how could he allow himself to be humiliated, to lose face!

“But now…”

“The baby, it’s gotta go!”

Letitia suddenly dropped to her knees before him. This was the first time she ever knelt down willingly,

her voice low, begging him-

Elgin, please, spare this child. I just want him to come into this world safely. I’ll take him far away from

you, it won’t be a

Chapter 47

bother. Besides, we’re getting divorced in two months. If… you can’t explain to your grandpa, after this

child is born, I dan bare another child for you! Please, this child means everything to me.”

Elgin looked down at her.

She knelt straight, but he was unmoved, his face the epitome of indifference.

“Letitia, you’re playing your cards a bit too well, aren’t you?” he scoffed, “Another child for me? That

way you get to save your troublemaker in your belly, leave a kid in the Ramirez family, and save your

dad. Three birds with one stone! You sure are cunning!”

She reached out, grabbing onto his trouser leg. “But this child is a life too, how can you be so

heartless?”

“It’s just a bastard, doomed to be a slave!”

Elgin gripped her wrist, yanking her up forcefully.

Letitia struggled desperately, “I won’t go to the hospital!”

“You don’t have a say!”

Suddenly, a ringtone cut through the tension.

Hawley’s voice came through, “Elgin! What are you doing? Letitia’s pregnant, go easy on her, and don’t

hurt her. Think of the baby!”

“Grandpa, your eyes and ears sure are dedicated. It’s like you’re everywhere!”

“It’s all for the kid, you need to cool that temper. Hawley said, “Alright, take Letitia back to her room to

rest, enough drama.”

He wanted her to abort the baby, but Hawley wanted to keep the baby.

“As your grandpa, I’m asking you, Hawley softened his tone, “Losing my son at an old age, I’ve

suffered enough, and I really want to have a great-grandkid.”

Elgin hung up without a trace of emotion. He married Letitia, the enemy’s daughter, because Phedra

backed him into al corner, leaving him no other choice.

Now, to tell grandpa that the baby isn’t even his? What would that make him?

This secret should be between him and Letitia only, no one else!

“You got lucky.” Elgin gritted his teeth, “You can keep the baby, for now!”

Letitia heaved a sigh of relief, collapsing to the floor.

It was only temporary, who knew what the future held, but for now… she was safe. She had time to

figure out a way to protect her child.

She remembered that the baby’s father had promised to marry her, but where was him? She was close

to breaking point

on her own.

The Ramirez Group.

Today was payday, so the office was buzzing.

Everyone was in high spirits, and Letitia also received her first paycheck.

She had been on the job for less than a month and didn’t expect much, but when she saw the number,

she was gobsmacked.

“Mr. Stewart, Letitia headed for Samson’s office, “Is there a mistake with my paycheck?”

“There shouldn’t be any mistake, finance checked it”

“But it’s ten thousand bucks”

Samson nodded. “Yup. It’s gonna be higher this month, and it’s only gonna keep on climbing. The

Ramirez Group is the crean; of the crop in AquaCity-they never let their employees down when it

comes to paycheck.”

Letitia blinked. Oh god, this is one sweet deal.

“Ha ha ha, Elgin might be taking you for granted, but not me. I truly value you, Samson chuckled.

“You’re my head designer, and ‘Ramirez Romantica’ wouldn’t be the same without you. Plus, you’ll be

getting a cut of the profits, you’re on your way to being loaded!”

Loaded? Letitia didn’t dare to think that far; her life was filled with too many question marks and

curveballs.

“Thanks, Mr. Stewart.” Letitia was genuinely grateful. “I’ll do my best.”

“Why the formality? You’re practically the lady of the house here. Besides, you and Vidonia are besties,

so it’s cool if I play favorites, right?”

Samson’s smart and kind, and he was funny and charming to boot.

Letitia blinked, “Me and Vidonia are besties, but what’s that got to do with you, Mr. Stewart? Don’t tell

me… you’ve got a thing for Vidonia?”
