Shattered Illusions Love Lies and Redemption (Lizetta and Remington) novel Chapter 814

Lizzie felt a wave of tenderness wash over her as she instinctively lifted her hand to touch the back of her hand to the baby’s forehead. The fever had broken.

“Liz, let me take Ron, will you?” Stella, as if fearing Lizzie might harm the child, stepped forward again, bending over to take him into her arms. “Ron, do you want to come to auntie?” But as she approached, the little one’s mouth puckered, and he looked as if he was about to cry again.

Remington intervened, blocking Stella’s attempt to reach for the baby. “Remington? Ron is a member of the West family, the sole heir of our bloodline. I’ve always treated Ron as my own. I’m worried sick about him being ill. Liz has been holding him tight and won’t even let me get close. What’s the reason for this?” Stella frowned, her voice full of accusation.

Remington’s voice was stern, “You’ve brought the smell of alcohol over to the child!” Stella’s expression changed slightly; she indeed had been at a bar, drinking and dancing. If it hadn’t been for Anna’s call, informing her that Remington and Lizzie were at the hospital, Stella wouldn’t have come tonight at all.

“I… The smell of alcohol must have accidentally transferred from someone else. I rushed over as soon as I heard Ron was sick at a friend’s birthday party tonight!” Stella defended herself.
