Chapter 20

Chapter 20

Being a man, Hogan’s intention was crystal clear to Remington.

Remington’s handsome face was as cold as frost, but Lizetta found him inexplicably strange.

“He just called to tell me that my elder brother’s health is stable.”

She didn’t dare let Remington know that she was secretly preparing to study abroad.

After all, he hadn’t even agreed to a divorce, let alone thinking about studying abroad.

But she had made up her mind and wouldn’t be deceived into changing it again!

Remington, with eyes deep as the abyss, said, “Should I get you a mirror to see that guilty look on your face?” He knew her too well, including the way she lied.

The cleverest lies were those mixed with truth and falsehood, so Lizetta says, “He also mentioned that there’s a medical institution abroad dedicated to awakening comatose patients, and we could send my elder brother there.”

But the old fox isn’t talking about the grapes.

Remington snorted, “I’ll arrange another esteemed physician for your brother.”
