Taming The CEO The Escaping Wife

Chapter 76

Soon after, Shela 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 Shela, 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 Shela 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 place 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 pale complexion gave away her inner turmoil.

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

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

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

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

With such a commotion, 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 to come over, so here I am. And as you wished, I saw you and Shela making out. Mr. Ramirez, is there anything else you’re not satisfied with?”

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

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

Even a fool could guess what had happened.

Seeing Elgin’s confused look, Shela 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?

Shela pouted, playing 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 Shela for being the other woman and even flaunted her Mrs. Ramirez status to throw her weight around Elgin must feel sorry for Shela, wanting to back Shela 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!

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 Shela 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 Shela must be exhausted”

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

His emotions and rationality were slowly coming 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 slap 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 Shela’s clothes and handed them to her. “Put these on.”

“Mr. Ramirez, Shela 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.

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

“Yeah.”

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

Tm the one who asked her to come over,” Elgin cut Shela off, yanking his hand back.

Shela looked bummed and hurt

Seeing her like that, Elgin dropped the tough guy act and explained gently, “Ivory Towers is under Grandpa’s watchful eye. Can’t stick around and keep you company for now.”

“Alright then” Shela 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 treating ladies with tenderness!

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