Shattered Illusions Love Lies and Redemption (Lizetta and Remington) novel Chapter 649

In the car, leaving the old Dashiell estate, Lizetta slightly lifted her head from beneath the blanket.

"Something wrong? Need some water?" Yolanda immediately grasped Lizetta's hand with concern.

With a slight smile, Lizetta gestured for help to sit up a bit more.

Yolanda carefully propped her up, treating her as delicately as one would a porcelain doll, while Mrs. Bernice Madden, sitting beside them, busied herself wrapping Lizetta snugly in the blanket again.

Once semi-upright, Lizetta turned her gaze to Jerome in the driver's seat.

Noticing her movements, Jerome had already slowed the car, keeping watch through the rearview mirror.

Their eyes met in the mirror, Jerome waiting silently for her to speak.

"Could you please take me to Skyline Hospital? I had already arranged with my senior to be admitted there."

Following the car accident and significant blood loss, the doctors were concerned about potential complications due to the large transfusion. They advised that Lizetta stay in the hospital for at least a couple of weeks to ensure she was out of danger.

She needed ongoing treatment, and although she had just agreed to go home with Mrs. Bernice Madden to leave the Dashiell estate behind swiftly, she wasn't actually related to the Madden family. It wouldn't be right or proper to impose on them, especially in her current state.

But as soon as she spoke, Mrs. Bernice Madden's eyes welled up, clutching Lizetta's hand tightly.

"Elsa, you're not coming home with me again? You promised," she pleaded, her voice cracking. "No, we need to go home now, speed up, Jerome!"

Lizetta, seeing Mrs. Bernice Madden on the verge of tears, quickly reassured her with a smile.

"I need to be in the hospital when I'm sick. Once I'm better, I promise to come home, okay?"
