Shattered Illusions: Love, Lies, and Redemption

"Liz..." Remington couldn't help but speak up, feeling the need to offer a sincere apology.

But just then, Lizetta's phone rang, cutting him off.

Without acknowledging Remington's call, she swiftly pulled out her phone, her lips curving into a smile as she answered.

"Yeah, I'm in Zion City now, just left the airport. I'm fine, don't worry about me."

Remington thought it was Yolanda on the line, but Lizetta's next words caught him off guard.

"Dora's in the hospital. I got in touch with her as soon as I landed. Thankfully, her injuries aren't serious, or I'd never forgive myself..."

Remington's expression turned icy, his hand tightening by his side.

It had to be Jerome Madden on the line!

"Really? So, I'll get to see Dora again? Can't wait. I'll play host, make sure she's treated right."

"Alright, I got it. If I need help, I'll definitely reach out to you..."

As Lizetta chatted away, smiling, her phone was suddenly snatched from her hand.

Frowning, she turned to see Remington disconnecting her call.
