Shattered Illusions: Love, Lies, and Redemption

Evelina's face drained of color, her lips quivering, clearly attempting to interrupt Remington.

But the man's gaze was icy, and Evelina, despite her mouth opening, couldn't utter a word under his overpowering aura.

"Remington, what does she want?" Barbara asked, her voice trembling.

The influx of information left her dizzy and unable to process things at once.

However, Martin had already pieced everything together, his anger boiling over. He pulled up Evelina, who was sitting on the hospital bed, and slapped her twice across the face.

"Not only did you find yourself a lover, but you also wanted the West family to raise some bastard child unknown to us! How could you be so cruel?"

Evelina's cheeks instantly swelled red, and with a shriek, she fell to the ground, hair disheveled.

"Evelina, you didn't want to give birth to a child with congenital defects, so you planned to use today's opportunity for an abortion.

You've arranged it so that when you're taken to the hospital, Wilson, whom you've bribed, will perform the surgery. And he will tell everyone the child was saved.

Not only would you become my godmother's savior, but you could also continue pretending to be pregnant. All you need is for Dr. Wilson's cooperation at the time of delivery to bring a prepared baby into the delivery room as planned. Dr. Wilson has confessed everything. Do we need to bring him here to confront you?"

Hearing Remington's merciless voice, Evelina trembled all over, realizing it was all finished.
