Lucian glanced at Rex, his tone dripping with mock concern, "A simple hug between siblings, and you're losing your cool? Are you sure it's not just your age-old jealousy making a comeback?"
Lucian really wanted to rib Rex some more, but the timing wasn't right. He knew better than to stir the pot at such a moment. Instead, he turned to Liz and said, "Don't think of postponing, Liz. Grandma and Rex went out of their way to invite us over just for you. You're the star of the show today, the guest of honor."
Liz, confused by the unfolding events, looked at Rex for some clarity.
Rex, with a reassuring smile and a voice as smooth as velvet, said, "There are a few things we need to clear up."
Liz had no idea what he was up to, but it was clear she was already caught in his plans.
Helplessly, she walked over to the couch with Fiona, who then pulled her down to sit beside her.
"Rex, you're not thinking of getting back with Liz, are you? Why haven't we heard a whisper about this?" Mr. Dashiell, sipping his tea, was the first to break the silence.
Bringing Liz back home and gathering the whole family certainly looked like Rex was introducing her to the family again.
Liz immediately shot Rex a cold look. Her expression turned icy, clearly displeased. If Rex was being this presumptuous and thought he could just announce they were getting back together, she wouldn't hesitate to call him out on it right there.

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....
