Taming The CEO The Escaping Wife novel Chapter 70

Chapter 70

‘Not a big deal,” she shook her head, tucking the damp blanket neatly over, “Hit the hay”

Elgin got up and glanced over, “Come to the bed.”

“What?

I said get your butt up here, Elgin yelled with a dark face.

“Nah’ Letitia desined, “It’s OK to sleep on the floor*

I’m not fond of repeating myself thrice.

With no other choice under his stem pressure, Letitia silently clambered onto the bed.

She leaned as far to the edge as possible, keeping a country mile between them, not even letting her dress hem touch him.

“Why are you sleeping on the edge like that?” His expression soured even more, “You want to fall out of bed?”

“No way, I’m. I’m slim and don’t take up much space. As Letitia spoke, she inched even further to the side.

Elgin snapped the light off with anger.

In the darkness, one lay on the far left, the other on the far right, with a gulf as wide as the Milky Way between them.

But at least Letitia didn’t sleep underneath.

That night, Letitia slept with bated breath.

So, at the crack of dawn, she bolted out of bed, not willing to endure another second of torment!

Seeing her up so early, the butler raised an eyebrow, “Madam, it’s it’s just past six.”

“Yep, I know, early to bed and early to nse tend to make me healthy, haha!”

“You got back late last night and up this early…”

Letitia touched her nose and explained, “Up for a bit of a workout”

Strolling around the garden, she stumbled upon the fact that the fence around the artificial lake in front of Ivory Towers… had grown

taller.

It must be Elgin who did this. And whenever Letitia tried to head towards the lake, the bodyguards would get jittery, fearing she might hurt herself

Well… she had to roam the garden.

Waking up early was a real drag, she wandered for ages and it wasn’t even eight yet.

Just as she thought about maybe going to sketch some design drafts, the gate slowly swung open.

A car rolled in

The butler promptly greeted, “Master Hawley, you’ve arrived.”

Hawley stepped out beaming with high spirits.

The good condition of a “great-grandpa” is not exaggerated. Joy put heart into this old man.

Phedra went off after him. Instead of being as vigorous as Hawley, she was tight-lipped.

“Grandpa, Letitia called out proactively.

“Ah, up so early?” Hawley inquired, “Gotta keep yourself well for the baby to thrive, you know.”

“I slept like a log.”

“Hawley, remember she’s Dr. Sanders’ daughter, Phedra cautioned under her breath

Hawley clicked his tongue in annoyance, “Why you gotta harp on about that all the time?”

“Stop your excuse! You’re about to be a grandma, that’s good news, ain’t it!”

The Ramirez family will continue with a first-born grandson, of course I’m thrilled, Phedra managed a smile. “But Letitia’s status..”

“What’s all thes fuss about it? As long as what’s in her belly is Elgin’s baby, that’s all that matters!”

Phedra didn’t dare oppose Hawley and could only sourly quip. “Today, I’ve seen what really means mothers are only valuable for having
