Shattered Illusions Love Lies and Redemption (Lizetta and Remington) novel Chapter 628

Bang.

Mid-sentence, Cara felt a sudden thud at the back of her neck, darkness enveloped her vision, and she collapsed onto the bed.

Lizetta was standing with a metal pipe in her hand, carefully dismantled from a floor lamp just moments ago.

Seeing Cara go down, Lizetta quickly jumped off the bed and dragged Cara onto it.

Afraid that Cara would wake up, Lizetta tied Cara's hands and feet with some clothes and gagged her. Only then did Lizetta, panting heavily, slump beside the bed.

Even these actions had left her feeling drained.

But Lizetta had noticed, for the past two days, Cara had been leaving the house at 4:30 AM to do her shopping.

Time was almost up. Pushing herself to stand, Lizetta hurried out of the room.

The mansion was eerily quiet, allowing Lizetta to sneak into Cara's room with ease.

When Lizetta emerged from the room, she was wearing a hat and carrying a shopping bag, her head slightly bowed and back hunched, mimicking Cara's walk to a tee.

She grabbed the car keys at the entrance, took a deep breath, and left the mansion.

Outside, under the portico, stood two bodyguards.

Lizetta walked past them, heading towards the parking lot.

The bodyguards turned to look at her. Her bag tilted, and a pen rolled down the slope.

She quickly chased after it, picked it up, and continued on her way.

The bodyguards couldn't see her face, but the distinctive slight lean to the right in her shoulder as she walked, and her attire, left no doubt in their minds that she was Cara.

Lizetta managed to get into the car and drive away from the mansion. The bodyguards, accustomed to Cara leaving at this time, paid her no special attention.

Lizetta's heart raced as she left the mansion behind.

"Get everyone to the West residence, intercept her!" Remington ordered Ray with urgency.

"Half an hour has passed, and the mansion isn't far from the West residence. I'm afraid we might be too late..." Ray voiced his concern while dialing out.

Trouble was brewing.

Remington pulled out his phone and called Stella, his gaze intense.

However, the call went unanswered.

Meanwhile, outside the West residence.

Lizetta's car had already arrived; five minutes earlier, she had used Cara's phone to call Stella, claiming she wanted to meet outside the community for a talk. Stella, as expected, allowed her immediate access.

Lizetta drove smoothly into the community, reaching the West residence. Stella was already outside, approaching the slowly advancing car with a bright, provocative smile.

Lizetta glared at Stella's taunting smile, veins on her hand gripping the steering wheel bulging. Without a moment's hesitation, she accelerated, heading straight for her.
