Shattered Illusions Love Lies and Redemption (Lizetta and Remington) novel Chapter 642

Her silence might well be the best answer she could give.

Remington lingered in the bedroom for a long while, aware that once she awoke, he might never again have the chance to be this close to her.

Ray waited outside. When Remington emerged, Ray followed him into the study.

"Mr. Remington Dashiell, you should rest for a bit..." Ray said, his eyes filled with concern.

Though Remington appeared unscathed, standing tall and walking steadily, Ray couldn't shake the feeling that he was like a bow stretched to its limit, ready to snap at any moment. He had internal injuries that had never been allowed to heal.

"It's nothing. What have you found out?" Remington asked as he sat down behind his desk, rubbing his temples.

"We still haven't found Lambert's phone, but we did get his call log. It shows the last call was from his girlfriend. According to the timeline, he must have snuck out right after that call."

Lambert was the donor matched with Daisyseph for the bone marrow transplant.

"Dig deeper!" Remington commanded.

"Mr. Remington Dashiell, do you think this wasn't an accident? That he was murdered?" Ray inquired.

Remington pondered for a moment before replying, "Lambert had been cooperative since we agreed on the donation terms. Why would he suddenly sneak out that night? He couldn't swim, and one would think he'd stay away from the lake late at night, yet he drowned."

It was clear the West family had anticipated Lizetta's motives for visiting, setting a trap for her in advance. If it were purely Hanna's doing, and the West family was oblivious, how could they have prepared so defensively?

"Find out if Hanna accidentally let slip about the amniocentesis typing, and check if the typing doctor had contact with any suspicious individuals."

After giving his orders, Ray turned to leave. He had taken a few steps when he turned back, urging, "Mr. Remington Dashiell, please get some rest. Your eyes are red from lack of sleep."

Once Ray had left, Remington closed his eyes briefly, standing to light a cigarette, but he didn't go to rest. He thought of Lizetta, who should be waking up by now, unaware of what situation she would find herself in. He was too worried to sleep.

Yet, Lizetta didn't wake. She remained unconscious, for over a day and a night, with no signs of waking up, which was far from normal.
