Shattered Illusions Love Lies and Redemption (Lizetta and Remington) novel Chapter 908

Lizetta thanked the doctor, who nodded and left the room.

After tucking Yolanda snugly into bed, Lizetta followed the doctor out.

In the living room, Remington and Cassius were still waiting. As soon as the doctor appeared, Cassius looked up expectantly.

“How is she?”

The doctor explained the situation briefly, then approached Cassius. “How about you, sir? Let me take a look at you, too.”

She was the Sterling family’s private doctor, and though she’d wanted to check on Cassius first when she arrived, he’d insisted she see Yolanda. But Cassius didn’t look well either, so she asked again about his condition.

Cassius waved her off. “I’m fine, no need to check.”

The doctor frowned. “But you have a bruise on your forehead and your face…”

Indeed, Cassius had a noticeable swelling on his forehead, and a distinct handprint was visible on his right cheek—courtesy of Lizetta’s earlier slap.

Looking irritated, Cassius blocked the doctor’s attempts to examine him further. “I just bumped into something, it’s nothing. You can leave now, and I’d prefer it if today’s events stayed confidential.”

The doctor had been with the Sterling family for years, and Cassius had only called her because she was nearby. He did not want her reporting back to his parents.

Seeing how determined he was, the doctor didn’t linger and soon took her leave.

Once she was gone, Cassius doubled over, holding his head, trying to suppress the urge to vomit.
