Shattered Illusions Love Lies and Redemption (Lizetta and Remington) novel Chapter 1322

Meeting her irritated gaze, Remington instantly knew exactly what Lizetta was thinking.

She definitely assumed he had ratted them out to his buddy and invited Cassius over.

But he genuinely hadn't.

Refusing to take the blame, he immediately defended himself to Lizetta.

"I just stepped out to take two work calls. I didn't tell him you were here. You can check my call log."

He pulled out his phone, looking utterly desperate to prove his innocence.

It was no joke. Even though he was incredibly fortunate to have earned the forgiveness and approval of Lizetta and the Maddens, he still hadn't fully won his wife back yet.

Until they officially signed that marriage certificate again, he wouldn't know a single day of peace.

And even after they tied the knot, he intended to learn from his past mistakes. He swore he would never let her suffer any grievances again.

Cassius watched Remington act like a desperate man begging to be micromanaged by his wife and practically rolled his eyes.

Was this still the cold, ruthless Remi—the man everyone feared, the man who feared no one?

While Cassius was silently judging him, Remington suddenly shot him a look. His expression shifted faster than a flip of a switch.

The transition from a gentle, devoted husband to a man with an icy, lethal glare was so seamless that Cassius wondered if he had imagined the whole thing.

Remi was still a terrifying, ruthless tyrant.

Startled by Remington's deadly stare, Cassius instantly dropped the attitude and spoke respectfully to Lizetta.

"Lizetta, I've been shooting on location for the past few days. I only found out last night that my nephew made it home safe. I drove back overnight and came to visit first thing this morning. It's just a coincidence. Remi had absolutely nothing to do with it. If you don't believe me, just ask Yolanda."

He had indeed been filming out of town, but he had actually returned the night before.

He could have visited the hospital at dawn, but he bet on the high probability that Yolanda would be here today, so he bided his time.
