Lizetta felt like her head was about to explode as she tried to calm the storm in her chest.

"Staying in bed rest for a month, really? And what's next? You'll tell me I need two months? A 'double confinement"?"

She couldn't help but wonder if her recovery was just a matter of his say-so, even after a so-called double confinement.

Remington looked at her with a deep gaze. "I'm not that despicable."

Lizetta scoffed coldly, clearly thinking he had a skewed perception of himself.

"We're divorced, we have nothing to do with each other now. Keeping me locked up is imprisonment and illegal. You can't keep me here forever. I'll call the police..."

Before Lizetta could finish, Remington handed her a cell phone, raising an eyebrow in challenge.

"So, you want to call the cops? Go ahead."

Lizetta laughed out of frustration, wondering if he thought she wouldn't dare.

She snatched the phone and dialed 911 without hesitation.

To her surprise, the dispatcher on the other end was quite patient, asking for details about her situation.

"Please, hurry," she urged.
