Shattered Illusions: Love, Lies, and Redemption ( Lizetta ) novel Chapter 131

Chapter 131 

Hearing It was Evelina, Lizetta chilled out instead. Looked like the one who should be freaking out now was probably Remington

She leaned into his ear and taunted, Aren’t you gonna let go? If Evelina gets shocked and something happens to the baby, don’t expect me to take the fall.” 

Remington’s grip on her waist tightened a bit, but soon enough, he let her out of his hold. Lizetta wanted to hop off him quickly, but his hurry to avoid any scandal made her feel kinda ticked off

She chuckled with a mischievous glint in her eye and reached to roll down the car window. But her hand was suddenly seized by the man, his voice sharp, I know what you’re playing: get away from me now!” 

Lizetta’s face lost its color, feeling as if she’d been slapped hard. She got up and moved back to the passenger seat

As soon as she settled down, Remington rolled down the window. Evelina’s smiling face appeared, her makeup on point

Last night, Evelina’s social media followers dropped like flies, and netizens pressured her to post donation 

receipts

In the end, the Hawthorne Group’s official website released a statement saying that as the Hawthorne family’s daughter, Evelina’s charitable donations were done in conjunction with the Hawthome Group

The Hawthorne family must’ve spent a fortune on internet mercenaries to cool down the heat, finally putting an end to the taunts

Gotta say, Evelina had got thick skin, right now, she showed no sign of being fazed by the public opinion, her voice brimming with surprise

Remington, is that you in the car? Oh, Sis, you’re here too?” 

She acted as if she was clueless about the tense vibe inside, all innocently enthusiastic

Remington nodded at her and said, Go wait for me in the office.” 

Lizetta couldn’t be bothered with Evelina and didn’t even turn her head, but when she heard Remington’s words, she subconsciously pinched her fingertips

So, Remington had arranged to meet Evelina today. No wonder he was too busy to come to the café and sent Cedric down instead

Okay, I’ll head up then,Evelina obediently nodded.. 

She turned to leave but glanced back, considerately saying, Take your time talking, Remington. I can wait a bit longer. The desserts prepared by the CEO’s office taste so good, I wonder which shop they’re from.” 

Remington then turned to look at Lizetta, Which shop are the desserts from?” 

Lizetta used to be a junior clerk in the CEO’s office, handling all sorts of errands. The desserts for the female guests at the CEO’s office were her responsibility, and they had a specific partnership with a dessert shop

Lizetta looked up with a smile, “From LR.” 

Remington eyed the smile at the corner of her lips and ordered in a flat tone, Call them and arrange a weekly delivery to the Hawthome family mansion.” 

Evelina beamed with joy, Remington, you’re so good to me. Thank you, Sis.”

She tilted her head, gave Lizetta a smile, and cheerfully headed toward the elevator, her footsteps seemingly mocking Lizetta
