Shattered Illusions: Love, Lies, and Redemption

Chapter 117

“Walt, you’re Lizetta’s cousin?” Hamilton was surprised.

Lizetta and Joseph didn’t share a last name, so when Hamilton asked Joseph, he said Lizetta was his cousin.

He guessed that Lizetta must have taken her mom’s surname.

Lizetta saw his misunderstanding and wanted to explain, but to her surprise, Remington nodded first.

“You got a problem with that?”

Lizetta frowned; why would he deliberately mislead Hamilton?

But the next second, seeing Hamilton scratching his head and quickly changing his tune, apologizing to Remington, even asking if the “cousin” was thirsty or wanted something to drink, Lizetta caught onto Badass Remington’s game.

When it comes to being sly, it has to be him!

“He’s not thirsty! Hamilton, don’t bother with him, don’t go!”

Lizetta couldn’t bear to see such an innocent guy like Hamilton getting toyed with by Remington, a man with a black heart and rotten liver and stopped him from buying drinks.

But Remington tightened his grip on Lizetta’s hand, looking down and saying.

“Heh, when someone’s courting, which one of them doesn’t run errands? I’m giving him a chance to show off.” He looked back at Hamilton.

“What do you think?”

Hamilton smiled and winked at Lizetta, saying,

“You’re right, Lizetta, watch Nancy for me, I’ll be right back.”
