Shattered Illusions: Love, Lies, and Redemption

Yet, time and again, Remington wrecked it all!

Hogan glared at Remington, his eyes burning with indignation, but Remington just scoffed disdainfully.

"You? After all these years, you've been playing the caring and considerate guy. Do you think Liz ever fell for it? She could never love someone as twisted and petty as you! What you feel for her isn't love; it's obsession and possession."

For a moment, Hogan's expression froze, but he quickly laughed mockingly and looked at Remington.

"Don't you find it ironic, Mr. Dashiell, coming from you? Have you forgotten how Liz got her postpartum depression?"

Remington's face paled slightly, a storm brewing in his deep eyes. He quickly suppressed his regret, stepped forward, and grabbed Hogan's right hand, pinning it down on the armrest.

The next second, he picked up a glass vase from the nearby table and, aiming at Hogan's hand, said icily, "Doctor, what good is this hand of yours if it's ruined?"

Hogan's expression changed drastically. "Remember, this is a hospital!"

Remington sneered, "When you were manipulating Liz here, why didn't you think about that?"

Ray nodded in agreement, quickly adding, "Don't worry, Mr. Dashiell, if you break his hand, I can testify he fell and cut himself on a broken vase. You saw that too, right, Mr. Madden?" Ray looked at Jerome, who raised an eyebrow, "The cops aren't that dumb, but taking the fall for your Mr. Dashiell should be doable."

Ray thought Jerome was really dark-hearted but still nodded eagerly, "I can do that!"

"Hogan, if you want to keep this hand, then spill. Who's the woman from the parking lot?"

Remington's gaze was menacing,

and Hogan had no doubt he would follow through. His pinned hand trembled but he bit back, coldly saying, told you, she's a girlfriend I got to keep my family off my back, Remington. What are you

vn

suspecting?"

A girlfriend to keep the family off his back would be hidden so well? Disappear so suddenly? Moreover, her disappearance surely had something to do with Lizetta.

As for his suspicions, Remington's

eyes were dark and unfathomable.

"Half a year ago, you almost took Liz

out of the country. I stopped you because found out Liz was pregnant and brought her back from the airport. You missed your chance and must have been resentful. You know as long as the chilebis here, Liz won't leave easily. So, was Daisy's death related to you?!"

That was what Remington really wanted to press Hogan on.

Lizetta was rushed to the hospital quickly; though it was a difficult birth, they managed to save her in time.

Hans kidnapped Lizetta for money, and Hanna Evert Dashiell used Hans for Daisy's umbilical cord blood. Neither of them had a motive to harm Daisy. In fact, they didn't want anything bad to happen to her. So how did the child end up dying?All text © NôvelD(r)a'ma.Org.

But Hogan had both motive and

opportunity, Having spent years at the Dashiell Hospital, Hogan knew

the ins and outs very well.

Remington even remembered, the time he accompanied Lizetta for a prenatal check-up, they ran into Hogan at the maternity ward.
