Shattered Illusions Love Lies and Redemption (Lizetta and Remington) novel Chapter 669

Remington Dashiell stepped forward, bending down to pick up the vase that had fallen.

Faintly, he heard the distant murmur of conversation from the room next door, mingled with the voices of two young men.

One was Jerome Madden, and the other sounded like Hogan White.

Quite the gathering, it seemed.

Remington's lips tightened slightly as he held the vase, turning back to the adjacent room.

Ray couldn't help but show a trace of sentiment as he saw Remington enter with the vase in hand.

"The flowers the boss went through so much trouble to get, and it's been less than an hour since they sneaked into the lady's room before being discovered," Ray remarked with a slight shake of his head.

He hurried forward to take the vase. "The missus didn't destroy the flowers; they came out looking pretty good. Guess she's not that mad at you after all."

Ray tried to comfort Remington.

Remington gave him a glance and scoffed, "You think because she didn't smash the vase over my head, it's an improvement, huh?"

Ray indeed thought so. After all, the lady might very well have done just that under other circumstances.

And even if she did smash it over Mr. Remington Dashiell's head, he'd still have to take it, wouldn't he?

But facing Remington's icy gaze, Ray immediately shook his head.

"How could the missus ever bring herself to do that? No way..."

Even though it sounded insincere, Remington's expression softened slightly. He thought back to when Lizetta Gardenia had returned, eventually helping him to the emergency exit, a hint of a smile appearing in his eyes.

Then, his thoughts shifted to Nelson Madden's recent attitude toward him. Sitting on the hospital bed, he turned to Ray.

"That info about the hospital where Liz was born, the list of mothers from that week, did you get it?"

Ray blinked, unsure why Remington was suddenly bringing this up.

Still, he nodded. "Got it, but I haven't had the chance to go through it yet."
