Shattered Illusions Love Lies and Redemption (Lizetta and Remington) novel Chapter 1089

Because Lizetta had been in a coma, Remington had kept the accident a total secret from his grandmother to spare her the anxiety.

Once Lizetta woke up, both of their attention had been entirely focused on Tranquil Meadows, causing them to neglect Fiona.

Seeing her about to hit the cold floor barefoot, he gripped her waist and lifted her right back onto the counter.

"Go! I can take care of myself."

He reminded her to dry her hair properly and not to wander off before finally stepping out.

"How is the task I gave you two days ago coming along?"

A murderous intent radiated through his tone. Cedric's mind raced, instantly pinpointing exactly which task he meant.

"Rest assured, sir. The lab acquisition is complete down to the final signature. All terms have been negotiated. The only hiccup is the Yates family. They're incredibly stubborn. They believe Eartha saved their daughter's life, making her their ultimate savior. They refuse to budge on the deal..."
