Shattered Illusions: Love, Lies, and Redemption

Chapter 323

Ray pushed open the door of the hospital room, his expression serious. “Mr. Dashiell, there’s been a crisis.”

Lizetta knew to step aside quietly at his words.

“Spill it,” Remington commanded, straightening up in his bed.

Ray stepped in. “News about Mr. West’s passing leaked prematurely. It’s all over the internet now, and the West family’s stock prices are nose–diving. Some investors are lashing out on the West family’s official website, demanding explanations. Others, more radical, have gathered in front of the West family building, protesting and even photoshopping Mr. West’s obituary photo.”

He handed over a tablet to Remington, who tapped on a video. A rowdy crowd was amassed outside the West family offices, with a man at the forefront holding a black and white photo of Quentin, defaced with blood red paint that read “Gone too soon” below “The West family owes investors. Quentin, go to hell.”

Watching the chaos, Remington frowned deeply.

“Barbara saw all this and just had a bit of a turn, the doctors are with her now,” Ray continued.

Remington’s face fell, he quickly threw off his covers and got out of bed.

Lizetta stepped forward to offer him support, worried about his injuries. In a soft voice, she asked, “Can I come with you?”

Remington looked at Lizetta and nodded, “Let’s go.”
