Liz had just finished tidying up her desk, an hour had passed, and she finally sat down to reply to Remington's text.
"I don't need these things. Have someone pick them up."
Remington, who seemed to have been glued to his phone, responded almost instantly.
"If you don't like them, just throw them away. I'll pick something else and send it over."
Liz imagined the next batch of gifts from Remington might be even more extravagant, prompting her to rub her temples in exasperation.
An hour later.
Remington wrapped up his meeting and exited the conference room, handing his phone back to his assistant, Charlie.
Charlie, trying to curry favor, asked, "Boss, do you need anything else?"
Though Charlie was puzzled about what was so special about his phone, given that Remington had clung to it throughout the meeting, checking it numerous times.
"That's all for now," Remington said, a hint of resignation in his eyes.
Because Liz had unceremoniously added his number to her block list.
Stepping into his office, a baffled Charlie was left examining his phone for any clue as to what Remington had done with it but found nothing.
Could it be that the boss saw potential in him, checking if he'd badmouthed him on social media before considering a promotion?
With this thought, Charlie quickly logged into his social media accounts, nervously reviewing his posts.
His hope lasted until, half a month later, nearly everyone in the secretary's office had their phones borrowed by the boss. That's when Charlie realized he had been mistaken.
But back to the present, in the boss's office, Cedric had just relayed news from Madden Media to 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....
