Remington watched as Lizetta's figure vanished down the corridor. He lingered for a moment longer before

turning back towards the hospital room. Inside, Jerhadn't left with the Maddens as expected but was

wrapping things up.

Hogan's glasses were shattered, his face bruised and swollen on one side, with traces of blood at the corner of

his mouth. Ray had him tied up in a chair. Seeing Remington enter, Hogan's lips twisted into a mocking smile.

"Stubborn guy, won't say a thing," Ray reported to Remington.

Hogan didn't seem too badly injured, but Ray had gagged him and landed a few good hits, surely causing some

internal damage. Yet, Hogan kept silent. Remington approached Hogan, his gaze icy.

"What kind of mind games did you have Daphne play on Liz? What are you planning to do with Liz by luring her

abroad?"

Hogan looked at Remington and let out a cold laugh, filled with disdain and mockery.

"Now you care about her? If you hadn't ruined her life five years ago, she would've accepted the proposal from

the White family and left the country! But you destroyed her and then neglected her, letting her suffer from

slander and torment for five years! | just wanted her to completely hate you, to take her away from this place of

heartache and start anew abroad. Compared to what you've done to her, what's my plan? Remington, what right

do you have to stand there and judge me? You're not worthy!"

Remington's eyes darkened, "So you knew all about the White family's proposal five years ago!"

It was clear from Hogan's words that he was still holding a grudge about the proposal from the White family.

Hogan smirked, "So what if | did?

She's never been happy with the Dashiell family. She once saved a stray cat and wanted to keep couldn't

wouldn't allow it. Living unde

someone else's roof with those

conditions? If she were with me, I'd treat her like a treasure and never let her face such indignities!"

Remington watched Hogan coldly, "Five years ago, you wanted to take Liz abroad and failed. After your leg

healed, you returned to work as the primary physician for Thaddeus Gardenia, just to hover around Liz. All these

years, you've never stopped persuading Liz to go abroad, even facilitating her application to study abroad with

Master Dories."

Hogan nodded, "Correct. Liz loves to dance, and her talent is immense. The artistic atmosphere and dance

resources abroad are incomparable to what's available here. I'm thinking of her wellbeing. Should | have just

watched her wither away under the Dashiell family's control?
