"You fool, of course I will!"
Remington froze for a split second, looking as though he couldn't quite believe she had agreed so readily.
"Haha, Ms. Madden couldn't wait!"
"Mr. Dashiell, put the ring on her already!"
"She said yes, Mr. Dashiell! Put a ring on it and kiss the bride!"
The crowd erupted.
Raucous cheering and teasing echoed throughout the banquet hall.
It was the opportunity of a lifetime—the one rare moment the employees could mercilessly tease their terrifying boss without the slightest fear of retaliation.
The atmosphere reached a fever pitch.
At the front tables sat Nelson Madden and the elders, Jerome, Kimberley, and Candy. Fiona Dashiell, Nathan, and Joseph were there as well. Joy was securely held by Thaddeus Gardenia, who had fully recovered through his physical therapy. The toddler mimicked the crowd, happily clapping his tiny hands for his mom and dad on stage.
Joyous smiles graced every single face in the room.
"Damn, Remi is too sly. Proposing in front of all these partners and employees—how could Lizetta ever say no?"
Cassius Sterling clicked his tongue as he watched Remington slowly slide the ring onto Lizetta's finger.
He bumped his shoulder against Yolanda's.
Yolanda was currently holding up her phone, recording the proposal with a bright, congratulatory smile. Annoyed by the interruption, she shot Cassius a deeply impatient glare.
"Can you knock it off for one second?"

The readers' comments on the novel: Shattered Illusions Love Lies and Redemption (Lizetta and Remington)
Does evil really triumph always above the good in this novel ? How comes Stella's evilness has no end? Does the author believes that by giving justice and importance to bad people like Stella will make this novel interesring? I am starting to lose my patience and ask when will the writer finally will realize that the protagonist is Lizetta and not Stella....
