Shattered Illusions Love Lies and Redemption (Lizetta and Remington) novel Chapter 379

In the courtyard, Edith's face was as pale as sheet, watched over by two bodyguards.

Upon seeing Remington emerge, Edith immediately broke free from the bodyguards and rushed forward, dropping to her knees with a thud.

She opened her mouth, hoping to plead for mercy, but Remington was concerned she might wake Lizetta, who was sleeping upstairs.

With a glance from him, the bodyguard covered Edith's mouth and dragged her away.

“Mmmph.”

Tears and snot streamed down Edith’s face as she was filled with regret and fear. She knew if she couldn't seize this opportunity to plead for herself, what awaited her would be severe punishment.

But Remington obviously didn’t give her that chance. Edith watched helplessly as the man got into his car, which then sped away.

Despair filled Edith's eyes as the two bodyguards dragged her out of Oakridge Heights.

“Get lost, you traitor,” one of the bodyguards sneered.

They didn't do anything to her, yet Edith felt even more terrified. She got up from the ground, “Mr. Dashiell is really letting me go?”

The bodyguard turned back with a cold laugh, “You better go home and see for yourself.”

Edith had meddled with Remington’s wife and baby, and in fairness, Remington retaliated against Edith’s husband and son.

Initially, Edith was bribed to betray her employer and let Evelina into Oakridge Heights because her husband and son had fallen into gambling addiction, owing a large sum of gambling debts.

This time, Remington made them gamble even more, owe even more.

Edith had betrayed her boss; the home she tried to preserve would be probably gone. Having offended Remington, she could no longer make a living in Zion City.
