Chapter 252

Lizetta grabbed it and was about to hunker down to replay the video because Remington’s reaction was off. She felt like he hadn’t really paid attention.

She wanted him to take another look, but realized that the video had vanished from her album.

Gone just like that, it had to be Remington who deleted it.

Lizetta, not ready to throw in the towel, checked the cloud storage only to find it wiped clean there too.

She stared at Remington in disbelief, “What’s your deal?”

“I’ve said it before, the kid’s not mine. Did you really think you could con me into pouring billions into the Hawthorne family?” Remington said with an emotionless face, clearly unphased by the video.

Lizetta gaped at him, baffled, “So, you knew the kid wasn’t yours, but you still let Evelina sweet–talk you into willingly investing in the Hawthorne family?”

Remington nodded, “There are some reasons, I’ll fill you in later.”

A twinge of pain prickled through Lizetta’s heart.
