Shattered Illusions Love Lies and Redemption (Lizetta and Remington) novel Chapter 847

Lizetta was practically vibrating with anticipation as she gazed at the little robot, whose heart-shaped eyes actually twinkled. Adorably yet firmly, it declined.

"Sorry, lovely lady, but you have only one more chance to answer the question, please respond."

Lizetta, "…"

Remington leaned in slightly, "Is the question that tough? I'm quite curious about the answer myself."

Already embarrassed, Lizetta felt even more flustered by his proximity. The robot, growing impatient, urged again.

"Did the beautiful lady forget the question? Let me remind you: in the still of the night, feeling lonely and empty…"

Lizetta definitely didn't want to hear that awkward question again. Nor did she want to be the one kicked out of a couple's diner for getting a weird question wrong. She cut the robot off with a grit of her teeth, "I do! I'll think of him."

"Wow, congratulations to you both, verified as a couple true and steadfast, with love stronger than gold. I wish you both a lifetime of weathering storms together and sweet companionship."

The robot blinked its heart-shaped eyes, its screen flickered, and it moved on to the menu selection. With the mischievous little thing finally quiet, Lizetta let out a sigh of relief. Her tense back relaxed, and she leaned back.

Unexpectedly, Remington’s long arm was casually resting on the back of her chair all this time. As Lizetta leaned back, she ended up in his embrace. She instinctively tried to sit up straight, but his large hand was already on her shoulder, fully drawing her in.

Lizetta stiffened, while Remington, with a smile, whispered in her ear. "Answering a question got you blushing?"

Was she blushing? Lizetta moved her fingers slightly but quickly regained her composure. Touching her face was like admitting guilt, she steadied herself, so he wouldn't see her panic.
