Shattered Illusions: Love, Lies, and Redemption ( Lizetta ) novel Chapter 240

Chapter 240 

Alright.Remington hung up, grabbed his coat, and bolted out of the office

Cedric quickly stood up and approached as Remington headed briskly towards the elevator 

No need to tag along.” 

Cedric nodded, a bit curious about where the boss was off to all by himself this late

But he still had something to run by him, so he followed a few steps and asked

Mr. Dashiell, Mr. Frost and the others are still in the meeting room having tea, should we” 

Earlier in the evening, when Remington came back to pull an allnighter at the Starlight Group, he had Cedric summon Mr. Frost, Mt. Grover, and Mr. Hardy 

They were there, but out of sight, just ordered to be kept in a small meeting room, sipping on tea

Pot after pot, no bathroom breaks

Now, after more than three hours, the three honchos were pale as ghosts and about to blow a gasket

Let em stew till the wee hours and then they can scram.” 

Remington had reached the elevator and issued the command indifferently

Cedric nodded, Any message for them?” 

Tell em to go ask their better halves.” 

Remington stepped into the elevator, and Cedric bowed slightly, stepping back, then suddenly blurted out to Remington inside

Mr. Dashiell, you might bump into Mr. Hawthorne on your way down.Evelina had been sent home, and the driver had relayed Remington’s message about pulling the plug on the second phase of funding to Kevin

Kevin had rushed to the Starlight Group in a panic, but Remington hadn’t let him up all this time

Sure enough, in the parking lot, Remington ran into Kevin, who was lying in wait. Seeing Remington stride over, Kevin hurried up to him

Remington, did Eve do something foolish on a whim? She’s had a tough childhood, and we spoiled her rotten when she got back, making her even less impressive. On her behalf, I apologize to you. How can you just change your mind about the investment like that?” 

Remington completely ignored Kevin, opened his car door, and ducked inside

Kevin, desperate, tried to grab the car door, but a cold, warning glance from Remington chilled even this seasoned businessman to the bone, stopping him in his tracks

Remington slammed the car door, started the engine, then rolled down the window to say coldly

Instead of hitting a brick wall with me, Mr. Hawthorne, you’d better straighten out your goodfornothing daughter, so she doesn’t stir up even bigger trouble.” 

Kevin thought it was just a loversspat between Remington and Evelina, but Remington’s words were 

warning

enough to count as

As he pondered this, Remington’s car had already sped out of the underground garage

Remington got there before Lizetta, driving slowly to the old neighborhood. From a distance, he spotted a bundle squatting by the flower beds

He walked over and looked down at the kid

Good on you for having the sense to put on a thick coat before heading out.” 

Joseph was wrapped in a big, thick down jacket and looked up when he heard the voice

I’m doing all this for who, huh? Remi, you’re so heartless, no wonder Liz dumped you”
