Shattered Illusions: Love, Lies, and Redemption ( Lizetta ) novel Chapter 254

Chapter 254 

She was already claiming the kid was Remington’s and still they wanna drag her to the OR? Crazy old woman

Don’t even start about your granny. She’s the epitome of integrity, pure as snow. If she knew her own granddaughter was out wrecking homes as a homewrecker, she’d break your legs herself! Since you say I’m like a granny to you, let me school you the way she would!” 

Fiona’s face was stem, but her eyes betrayed a hint of pity. Pity for her old ga! pal, but clearly, it was Lizetta who took after the ladies in temperament and character, while Evelina had her head screwed on wrong

Seeing Fiona’s heart was as hard as iron, not giving an inch of mercy, Evelina was boiling with hate and suddenly turned her guns on 

Lizetta

Through her tears, she pleaded, Liz! I know you hate me, but my kid with Remington is innocent! He’s got Dashiell blood, and getting rid of him will jinx Fiona’s luck and life. Please, beg her for mercy for me!” 

Evelina was making a scene, hoping to draw a crowd

But Fiona had already had the place on lockdown

If Lizetta hadn’t caught Evelina redhanded in the garden, hooking up with some dude, she might’ve actually fallen for her sob story

Right now, if Evelina just fessed up that the kid wasn’t Remington’s, Fiona would let her off the hook

But nope, she just had to play dirty, wanting to drag her down too

So why should Lizetta stick her nose in, especially after Evelina’s crack about jinxing Fiona, which really got her goat

Lizetta marched over and slapped Evelina right across her tearstained face

Evelina, if you don’t wanna be wheeled into the OR now, spill the beans, or no one’s gonna save you!” 

Evelina clutched her face, her expression clouding over instantly

That’s it, take her to the OR, and get the surgery done now!” 

Fiona was out of patience and ordered in a deep voice

The servants started dragging Evelina towards the OR, and she freaked out, screaming at the top of her lungs

I don’t want this, I won’t go! You have no right, let go of me! This is assault, I’m calling the cops!” 

Fiona added sternly, If the kid is Remington’s, then as the grandma, I have the right to decide, unless the kid isn’t his at all!” 

Fiona still had faith in her grandson, thinking Evelina was full of lies

She couldn’t believe that even now Evelina wouldn’t tell the truth, but suddenly Evelina broke free from the servants and threw herself at Fiona’s feet, clinging to her legs and wailing

Fiona, this is Remington’s child, your greatgrandchild! Just feel, he’s about to kick any day now. Please, give him a chance to live!” 

Fiona frowned, seeing her so weepy yet so stubborn, and doubt started creeping into her heart

Could it be that Remington actually messed up

This would be a disaster; she’d even called Liz over for a double whammy of hurt

While Fiona was getting a headache, Evelina crawled a few steps and clung to Lizetta, begging

Liz, I messed up. I know you can’t stand me, that when I was brought back home by our parents, they had to send you off to your birth parents with tears, from heiress of the Hawthorne family to a regular family. You resented me, always competing with me, snagging my marriage prospects, I get it. But this has nothing to do with my baby. Spare him, and I swear, once he’s born, I’ll raise him myself. I won’t use him to snatch anything from you, I swear!” 

Lizetta felt Evelina suddenly hugging her, right at her waist

It sent chills down her spine, like being wrapped by a venomous snake. Instinctively wanting to protect her own unborn child, she pushed Evelina away, seething
