Sophie's hand hadn't even reached the man before a strong, well-defined hand forcefully gripped her wrist.
"Ah!"
The man's grip was clearly a warning. Sophie felt a sharp pain in her wrist, as if it were about to snap. Before she could react, she was flung aside.
Stumbling, Sophie fell to the ground, her face turning pale as she looked up. The man in the car exuded an icy demeanor, his legs crossed, both dignified and aloof.
He accepted an alcohol wipe from Cedric and wiped his right hand that had just touched her, then casually tossed the wipe aside, declaring coldly, "Sophie, even if she rejects me, it doesn't mean I'll settle for second best."
With that, Remington coldly shut the car door. The black Maybach vanished from Sophie's view in an instant, the discarded wipe blowing against her.
Sophie felt just like that casually discarded wipe, not worthy of a second glance from the man, despite all her efforts. Biting her lip, she let out a scoff, stood up, and wiped away her tears.
Lilly hadn't been waiting long by the roadside when the black Maybach pulled up in front of her. The rear door opened, revealing Remington's dignified and composed figure. The man stepped out, his long legs making his exit from the car seem effortless.
He raised his hand to shield his head from the car roof, his deep gaze inviting Lilly inside. Cedric, holding the steering wheel, was initially worried that their boss might be affected by Sophie's words and take it out on his wife.
Seeing Remington being so attentive and gentlemanly now put him at ease. Lilly slightly bowed as she got into the car, "Thank you."

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....
