Shattered Illusions Love Lies and Redemption (Lizetta and Remington) novel Chapter 1041

Lizetta's ears rang, and her head spun dizzily for a moment.

By the time she gathered her bearings, she heard Eartha's panicked voice.

“Liz, are you okay? Let me see! Conrad, how could you hit her?!”

The two Porter brothers quickly swarmed her as well.

“Lizetta, are you alright?”

“Your face is swollen. Come upstairs with me, and we'll find some ointment. Conrad is still furious, let's go...”

As the three Porters crowded around her, Lizetta felt a dizzying buzz in her ears, like ten thousand flies swarming her head.

To make matters worse, Silas reached out to grab her arm again. God only knew what he planned to do if he dragged her upstairs.

Lizetta absolutely didn't believe the brothers were just coincidentally at the house today.

“Don't touch me!”

She shot the three of them a fierce, defensive glare. For a second, the sheer ice in her eyes actually froze the Porters in their tracks.

Lizetta glared at Conrad with bloodshot eyes. “Hah, flying into a rage out of humiliation? My mother's spirit in heaven is watching every single one of you!”

With those words, she grabbed the edge of the heavy tablecloth and yanked backward with all her might.

With one massive, explosive pull.

Crash! Clatter! Smash!

The entire lavish feast was swept off the table, sending ceramic plates and heavy soup bowls shattering onto the floor.

Shards of porcelain flew through the air, accompanied by splashing, scalding hot broth.

Lizetta had prepared for the chaos and dodged far out of the way.

But the three Porters weren't so lucky. Eartha, wearing a knee-length skirt that left her calves bare, was instantly sliced by flying porcelain and scalded by the boiling soup, prompting a shrill scream of agony.

“Ah! It burns...”

She swayed on her feet, the color draining entirely from her face.

Conrad rushed forward in an absolute panic.

“Eartha!”
