Chapter 19

Letitia was scared out of her wits, her heart practically ready to leap out of her throat. She stretched out her hand in a desperate attempt to grab the pregnancy test result, crumpling it into a ball and clenching it tight in her palm!

Elgin’s lips were pressed against her shoulder, and seeing her sudden movement, suspicion instantly clouded his mind.

He lifted his head, eyeing the wad of paper in her palm

“What’s that in your hand. Elgin demanded icily, “Hand it over!”

“It’s nothing..

“Give it to me!”

When she didn’t comply, Elgin forcefully pried her fingers open one by one.

“You looking to break a bone? he warned her, “Let go!”

As if Letitia could let go! If Elgin found out she was pregnant, it would be curtains for both her and the baby!

That piece of paper was the decider of her and her baby’s fate!

Just as Elgin was about to pry her fingers completely open, Letitia suddenly propped herself up and hooked her arm around his neck, pressing her body tightly against his!

“Letitia, let go!

She didn’t have time to respond; her hand moved behind his back, shoving the pregnancy test into her mouth! She was going to swallow it, wipe the slate clean!

By the time Elgin tried to intervene, it was already too late.

Letitia chewed it a few times and swallowed!

He immediately grabbed her throat, “You sure have a lot of tricks up your sleeve! Spit it out!”

“Can’t spit it out,” Letitia shook her head, “It’s in my stomach now!”

Elgin’s eyes were bloodshot with rage, ‘What was so shady about that paper that you had to hide it like that?

Letitia stayed silent.
