Seeing Yolanda's hesitation, Remington gave her an encouraging nod.
As soon as Yolanda heard that Stella and Margaret Miller were going, she quickly grabbed the invitation from his hand.
“Well, I suppose I can make an exception this time.”
She felt a little cheeky saying that, but nonetheless, she waved the invitation in the air and added, “Thanks for this. And for today, too. I really appreciate Mr. Dashiell’s help.”
Remington nodded slightly, not saying much more, just adding, “If Cassius gives you any more trouble, just have Liz give me a shout.”
Yolanda bit her tongue gently, trying to keep her wits about her.
Yolanda, how can you let yourself be swayed by small gestures like this?
But why did Badass Remington seem so genuine?
Oh boy, she must still be tipsy.
Feeling she was on the brink of losing composure, Yolanda closed her eyes, opting out of further conversation.
After dropping Yolanda off at her house, Remington drove Lizetta back to Maple Cottage. The evening sky of Zion City darkened early this time of year, and with the weather shifting, clouds gathered ominously overhead.
By the time the car pulled up to Maple Cottage, the garden lights were already casting their warm glow. Lizetta stepped out of the car, and Remington, who had gotten out first, opened a large black umbrella to shield them from the light drizzle that began to fall.
Under the shadow of the umbrella, he looked down at her with soft eyes and said, “It’s starting to rain. Why don’t I keep Vivi in my car for now? I’ll bring her back to you another day so she doesn’t get wet.”

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....
