Shattered Illusions Love Lies and Redemption (Lizetta and Remington) novel Chapter 441

Seeing him still crouched in front of her, like a statue turned to stone, Liz had had enough and stood up abruptly. If he wasn’t going to leave, she would.

But in the next second, the man suddenly rose and pulled her into a tight embrace. He held her so close, as if trying to merge her into his very bones, his voice hoarse in her ear.

“Liz, I’m sorry, but don’t turn down my help!”

Lucian stepped forward as well, saying, “Liz, calm down.”

Lizetta closed her eyes, realizing she wasn’t as composed as she thought. Her emotions were still affected at the sight of him.

Regret filled her heart. Yes, Yoli was what mattered most now. Once she calmed down, Lizetta pushed Remington away and nodded slightly.

Just as Remington breathed a sigh of relief, Lizetta suddenly gave him a deep, profoundly respectful bow, “Thank you so much, Mr. Dashiell.”

The coat she’d been wearing, Lucas’s, slid to the ground as she bowed. There she was, in her wedding dress, bowing deeply in the most formal and distant manner.

This was supposed to be their wedding day. She was supposed to be in his arms, kissing him amid the guests' cheers.

From the closest person to the most distant stranger, all in one night.

Remington felt as if a boulder was pressing on his chest, unable to breathe. His eyes were restrained with emotion, knowing she was repelled by him now, and whatever he said wouldn’t reach her.

His forehead veins were throbbing as he suppressed the urge to pull her into his embrace, nodding helplessly, “I’m doing this, not for you, but for myself! You don’t need to thank me.”

He was doing it for himself. Because with Yolanda’s incident, he feared he’d never win her back.

Remington’s deep gaze locked on Lizetta, hoping she’d understand what he meant.

However, Lizetta seemed not to hear. Or perhaps she heard but simply didn’t care anymore.

She straightened up indifferently, her body swaying weakly.

“Honey!” Remington’s expression changed, and he reached out to help.
