As soon as the door closed, muffled through the wood, came Mia’s barely suppressed squeal.
“Oh my gosh! Did you see that? They were holding each other so tight! Mr. Dashiell is totally smitten!”
Lizetta just stood there, speechless.
Remington, on the other hand, looked perfectly at ease. He even leaned in, chuckling softly in her ear.
Blushing furiously, Lizetta shoved at his chest. “If you don’t let go right now, I’m really going to be mad!”
He finally released her, obedient for once, and gently helped smooth out the collar of her now slightly rumpled silk blouse.
“There. I’ve let go. Please don’t be angry, okay? Don’t be angry about anything.”
Lizetta gave up trying to stay annoyed. “I’m not mad, I’m not mad! Now go sit on the couch—I need to let them in.”
Remington’s lips curled into a faint, knowing smile. He strode over and settled into the sofa, long legs crossed, all cool composure, as if he hadn’t just been caught making a scene in her arms.
What an actor, honestly.
Muttering to herself, Lizetta hurried to open the door for Logan and Mia, who’d been waiting outside.
She’d just called them over to brief Remington on the project updates.
Remington was surprisingly approachable with them, asking about event arrangements and listening attentively. He even offered a few new ideas for streamlining the annual conference.
Just then, Snow walked in, balancing a tray of fresh coffee. She knelt gracefully, swaying her hips a little too deliberately as she placed a cup in front of Remington.

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....
