Shattered Illusions Love Lies and Redemption (Lizetta and Remington) novel Chapter 784

In stark contrast to his previously unyielding demeanor, he now seemed struck down, silent as a stone.

Seeing Lizetta's furrowed brow and worried she might overthink things, Remington raised his voice, saying, "Let's not get worked up, Dad. I didn't come here to talk about my remarriage. That only came up because they asked, and I was just being honest."

"Remington, your concerns involve the Dashiell family, right?" Camille interjected timely, breaking the tense atmosphere.

Ethan and Wendy's faces slightly shifted, with Wendy's eyes immediately welling up with tears. "What, Remington? You're turning a blind eye to Lizetta's aggression towards us, and now you're here to kick us when we're down, to mock us?" Shirley immediately started sobbing too.

Lucian scoffed, "My mom hasn't said a word, and you already feel mocked. Sounds like you know you're the joke here."

Wendy's face turned beet red with anger as she glared at Lucian. Wendy was known for her relentless nagging, while Camille, a widow for many years raising Lucian, always kept a low profile.

Lizetta, who had remained silent, suddenly spoke up, not wanting Wendy to direct her fury towards them. "Mrs. Dashiell, all I did was recount the actions you and Shirley took. Then you both start throwing blame around like a family feud. How is that Remington encouraging me to bully you? Maybe I should go over the details again, let everyone here judge for themselves?"
