Liz felt a shiver run down her spine as the man caught up to them from behind. Nelson sensed her unease and gently squeezed her hand. Turning to Remington, he asked, "And who might your grandfather be? You sure make it sound like we're old friends."
Remington's gaze rested on Liz, who stood quietly beside Nelson with her head bowed. He spoke in a gentle tone, "Please, Mr. Madden, give us your blessing."
Nelson snorted, clearly not inclined to give any blessings. But then he remembered that if it hadn't been for Remington's call that morning, informing him of the complications at the hospital, they wouldn't have rushed back from Tranquil Meadows so quickly. If not for that, Liz might have already been spirited away by the scheming Hogan.
Moreover, Nelson had just joyfully acknowledged his granddaughter. Thinking about the role Remington played in bringing Liz back home, Nelson managed to suppress his dissatisfaction. He looked at Liz and asked, "Sweetie, do you want to hear him out?"
Liz kept her head down, but she could feel the intense, suffocating gaze fixed on her. He stood in front of her, an immovable figure, as if he wouldn't step back unless she agreed. Liz bit her lip and finally nodded slightly at Nelson.
Nelson patted Liz's shoulder and shot Remington a warning glare before walking ahead with his bodyguards.

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....
