Cedric watched as Remington's gaze grew colder by the second, but he stood his ground for the sake of the penthouse apartment. No backing down now.
“Sir, sending flowers is nice and all, but ma'am isn't refusing them without reason. You really should try making these handmade roses. They obviously take a lot of effort, and that effort is a clear sign of your affection.
Besides, ma'am has a soft spot for gestures like this. Seeing you go out of your way to make her happy will surely win her over. Once she keeps the flowers, she'll be reminded of you every day…”
Cedric went on and on, but Remington remained unmoved.
Cedric's voice trailed off, realizing perhaps the boss did have his principles and limits after all.
He gave up, “Sorry, sir, I just thought you practicing some crafts now would come in handy later, you know, when you and the lady have little princes or princesses running around. Guess I wasn’t thinking straight. I’ll just head out.”
After saying that, Cedric turned and quickly walked away.
But then, out of nowhere, something Cedric had said struck a chord with Remington, and he suddenly spoke up.
“Have Una stay late tonight for some overtime.”
Una, of course, was the one who knew how to make those handmade roses.
Cedric had been grasping at straws when Remington rejected his idea, thinking he'd been a bit ridiculous.
To his surprise, Remington actually took his suggestion. He couldn’t quite believe it.
Stunned for a moment, Cedric quickly turned back and said, “Of course, sir. I’ll make the arrangements.”
Of course, he had to make sure Una's overtime wouldn’t be noticed by other employees.
Otherwise, if the employees of Starlight Group caught wind of their aloof boss hiding out in his office at night playing with pipe cleaners, the headlines in the gossip columns would be something else.

Lizetta had a pretty relaxed morning. Laura hadn’t assigned her any specific tasks or had anyone show her the ropes.

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....
