The doctor snapped a bunch of photos of Daisyy making various faces—sticking out her tongue, wide-eyed, grinning, yawning...
Lizetta held the printout dearly, barely having warmed it up when Remington leaned over and snatched it away.
"What the heck?"
Lizetta instinctively reached to grab it back, but the man quickly folded the paper.
"I'll keep it safe."
Lizetta was not pleased, spreading her hands, "If you want one, go ask the doctor for another copy. This one's mine, give it back."
She cherished it and wanted to keep it, to show it to Yoli later, and someday to Daisyy too.
But Remington, ignoring her, had already tucked the printout safely into his suit pocket.
The man raised an eyebrow at Lizetta, "You're with Daisyy all the time. What's the big deal if I take one report? If you wanna see it, just call me, I can bring it over anytime."
Lizetta was frustrated. She certainly didn't need such an excuse to meet.
"I'll take it back to grandma; she'd be thrilled."
Seeing her puffing her cheeks in displeasure, Remington finally softened his tone, gently ruffling Lizetta's hair.
Lizetta also wanted Fiona to be happy, so she nodded.
She was off to see Thaddeus Gardenia, and Remington had business to attend to; Cedric had already been waiting for a while.
As they stood in front of the elevator, about to part ways, Lizetta made to step in but was suddenly pulled back by the man.
Spinning uncontrollably into Remington's arms, she was gently embraced.
Lizetta pushed against his chest, but Remington seemed oblivious to her resistance, leaning down to whisper in her ear.
"I promised I'd sort out Stella's business before bothering you again. Just remember what you promised me."
"Got it, can you let go now?" Lizetta responded.
All she had agreed to was not to get too close to other men.
Being heavily pregnant and hardly in a position to start a new relationship, agreeing or not didn't make much of a difference to her.

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....
