Shattered Illusions Love Lies and Redemption (Lizetta and Remington) novel Chapter 168

Chapter 168 

Remington’s face turned even more grim

Not scared of him, Lizetta stood her ground, Beat it! Evelina has to drink this bottle of water today, no ifs, ands, or buts!” 

There was no way Remington would let anything happen to the baby inside Evelina

Standing still, his figure was solid as a rock, but his gaze was fixed on the bottle of water in Lizetta’s hand

What’s in it?” 

Lizetta chuckled, and tiptoed closer to whisper in the man’s car, Relax, it won’t kill her, and definitely won’t harm the little treasure she’s carrying!” 

Her voice was soft yet chillingly cold. As she leaned in, a wave of the familiar, crisp scent of gardenias brushed past Remington’s ear

Remington’s thoughts swayed uncontrollably, and as the woman stepped back, he reached out again and grabbed her wrist

Underneath his palm, her wrist was delicate, and her skin was warm and smooth, which stirred emotions within him and brought up inappropriate intimate images in his mind

Even though he had resolved to let her go, his body now craved her presence even more

How could he have such a weak defense against her slightest provocation; Remington’s Adam’s apple bobbed, and he lowered his head to whisper in Lizetta’s ear

If you want to vent, slap her a few more times, but she can’t drink that sleeping potion, as it could harm the baby.” 

He was giving in

Lizetta was somewhat surprised that he would allow her to hit Evelina

But Lizetta wasn’t grateful; instead, she felt even colder

This also meant that Remington was fully aware that Evelina was the one who had drugged her

He cared so much about the baby inside Evelina, but what about her baby? Didn’t he fear it might be affected by the drugs

Considering what she had found out that sleeping pills could potentially affect the development of a baby’s nervous system, Lizetta felt her heart twisted in pain, so much so that she was determined to make Evelina suffer the same fate to calm her anger

Lizetta yanked her hand back and stepped away, while staring coldly at Remington

I won’t hit her, I just want an eye for an eye! Not a bit more, not a bit less! Are you gonna move or not?” 

Remington’s handsome face was stern; he was surprised by Lizetta’s stubbornness

She had already slapped Evelina twice. He had said it was okay for her to slap Evelina a few more times to vent, but Lizetta still insisted on pushing the envelope

Frowning, the man said, Lizetta, why take it out on an innocent child? Enough is enough” 

Fretta, watching him protect Evelina and blame her, couldn’t help but laugh bitterly

Chapter 168 

Her eyes suddenly burned red, as if bleeding, and she said firmly

Remington, don’t force me to hate you!” 

For the first time, Lizetta’s clear eyes filled with intense anger when she looked at Remington

She stood there, poised to sever ties with him
