Remington clearly had enough of her sarcastic comments. Without another word, he scooped her up, intending to tuck her into bed.
Instinctively, Lizetta wrapped her arms around his neck, whispering, "I really need a shower."
"No, you can’t do that. The doc said you can't shower today," Remington firmly denied.
"You're not a doctor."
"I asked the doctor!" he asserted with conviction, clearly having done his homework.
Lizetta felt a twinge in her heart.
She had thought Remington was like Hanna, only caring about whether Joy could save Joseph's life; and she thought that’s why he chased her down.
Maybe she had him all wrong.
After all, he didn’t push Hanna to get tested and even took the time to ask the doctor about these precautions. It all told that he did care about the baby.
"I just want to wipe down a bit. I feel like I'm starting to stink," Lizetta muttered softly.
Having spent a long day dancing at the troupe, she planned to shower in the evening. However, after being rushed to the hospital and sweating out of stress, she felt grimy.
Unexpectedly, Remington leaned in, deeply inhaling her scent.
Lizetta turned her head away in embarrassment, "Stop sniffing!"
Looking at her slightly flushed ears, Remington felt his irritation dissolve into thin air.
With a slight smirk and a raised eyebrow, he teased, "What’s the rush? It's not like you're in front of your fans. Or do you still care about keeping up appearances in front of me?"

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....
