Shattered Illusions: Love, Lies, and Redemption ( Lizetta ) novel Chapter 255

Chapter 255 

Lizetta stiffly bowed her head and glanced at Evelina, letting out a snicker

She was laughing at her own stupidity, for actually being scared that Fiona would really go through with terminating Evelina’s pregnancy. She found it hilarious that Evelina wasn’t spilling the beans even now, and she was getting a kick out of watching her squirm

Little did she know, the biggest joke was probably on her

Evelina must’ve tip 

rescue

off Remington ages ago and was just stalling for time, waiting for her knight in shining armor to come to the 

Every time Evelina gets a scratch and sheds a couple of tears, Remington is always there to shield her

Remi, save me, save our baby. I’m not fighting with Liz over anything, why do you have to harm my baby, what has he done wrong, it hurts so much.” 

Evelina, not caring about the wound on her face, clutched her belly, attempting to stand up but collapsed back, curling into a ball

Remington’s expression changed ever so slightly as he stepped forward and scooped Evelina into his arms, not giving a hoot about the awkward spot he was putting Lizetta in

Fiona was fuming, her chest heaving as she slammed her walking stick on the ground twice, scolding furiously

Put her down! You nogood scoundrel, believe me, I’ll give you a thrashing too!” 

Fiona was livid, raising her cane to strike

Ah! Remington, watch out!” 

Evelina cried out, raising her hand to shield Remington’s head, but he turned just in time, taking the hit on his back

The two of them looked for all the world like a pair of starcrossed lovers, each feeling the other’s pain

Fiona’s blood pressure was through the roof, gritting her teeth, ready to give them a piece of her mind

Remington turned around, took a step forward, Grandma, if you want to take me to task, let me get her to the infirmary first, then you can let off steam however you like.” 

Fiona didn’t expect him to turn and close in suddenly, her cane nearly whacking Remington on the head

She loved her grandson after all and didn’t want to kill him, so she stopped midswing, shouting angrily

You still want to take her to the infirmary? I think you’re trying to send me to the infirmary!” 

Lizetta, seeing Fiona genuinely enraged and worried for her, was about to step in and mediate when Remington’s gaze landed on her

Remington furrowed his brows and spoke sternly, Did you bring Grandma here? She’s getting on in years, shouldn’t be overexerting herself, help her back first.” 

His face was stern, his tone not harsh, but clearly reproachful

Lizetta locked eyes with him, her breath catching in her throat

Remington actually thought she had tattled to Fiona, and that’s why she had come to the hospital to deal with Evelina

In his eyes, she was just a coldhearted, narrowminded executioner, hellbent on killing Evelina’s innocent child

Lizetta didn’t want to explain, nor did she find it worth explaining. 

Whatever Remington thought, she couldn’t care less
