Shattered Illusions: Love, Lies, and Redemption ( Lizetta ) novel Chapter 234

Chapter 234 

Right after that, Remington pushed the car door open, hopped out, and strode over 

Way. 

Seeing this, Evelina’s eyes flickered with a chilly glint. She followed suit and got out of the car too. 

Remington stood in front of Lizetta, his gaze falling gently upon her as he asked softly. “Weren’t you supposed to be at the hospital? How come you’re here too?” 

Lizetta’s eyes curved in a taunt, If I’m not here, how can I witness your undying love for Ma. Hawthorne?” 

Her words dripped with sarcasm. Remington’s brow furrowed, ready to explain, but Yolanda quickly pulled Lizetta aside to save her from Remington’s toxic influence. 

“Remington, you’ve got the nerve to ask? What’s the deal, not done playing the ex–husband card yet and now you’re looking to make an enemy? Coming here to bail out the woman who’s been trashing Liz online, you’re really something else!” 

Yolanda didn’t hold back, throwing Remington a sarcastic thumbs–up. 

Lizetta went a bit pale, finding it all quite laughable. 

Just moments before in the car, he was all apologies, acting like he wanted to make it up to her. 

And then, in the blink of an eye, he was using the same car to bail out another woman whold hurt her. 

As always, when it came down to choosing between her and Evelina, Remington wouldn’t hesitate to pick Evelina. 

The police have cleared things up; it was all April’s doing. There’s no evidence linking Evelina to this, she’s been released because she’s innocent, no ball needed” 

He came to pick up Evelina only because he was worried about the baby in her belly, fearing some misfortune. 

He hadn’t interfered with the police investigation, nor had he bailed Evelina out. 

Remington’s explanation couldn’t calm Yolanda’s rage, and she let out a cold laugh. 

“April has no beef with Liz, why would she pull something like this? She’s Evelina’s agent, they’re thick as thieves. If Evelina didn’t put April up to it, there’s no way April would go and smear Liz online!” 

At this point, Evelina stepped forward, crying, her face full of remorse. 

“April’s been my agent for three years, we were close like sisters. Ms. Yolanda, what you are saying is making me feel utterly ashamed. but I genuinely didn’t know about this beforehand. April saw me beaten up, my face swollen, teeth knocked out, bedridden for days, unable to get up, and on top of that, getting cursed out online and losing countless followers. I was so heartbroken, I nearly miscared. Out of concern and pity for me, worried I’d become depressed, she didn’t tell me and did something wrong behind my back. But it was really just a moment of impulse, she’s realized her mistake now, and thankfully, it didn’t cause any serious consequences in the livestream.” 

Evelina continued to cry as she explained, one hand on her stomach, and she even stepped forward trying to grab Lizetta’s hand. “I’m feeling weak and unwell every day because of the pregnancy, that’s why I didn’t notice April’s intentions in time. Liz, I’m sorry, I apologize to you sincerely. Can you forgive me?” 

What a piece of work Evelina was, able to spin black into white. 

While apologizing, she was all about showing and pregnancy glow, jabbing at Lizetta’s heart with each word
