Lizzy already had a slight aversion to this restaurant, only wanting to quickly finish her meal and get down to business. She waved her hand, about to decline, but Rem had already put down his fork, asking for more details.
"Let's hear it."
"The event involves gentlemen peeling shrimp for the ladies. The quantity and quality of the peeled shrimp will be photographed and then posted on our restaurant's official website for live voting. The couple with the most votes after three days wins a grand prize. Just for participating, we'll also prepare a small gift for your lady today. Sir, our grand prize is truly exquisite; I guarantee your girlfriend will love it. Would you like to take on the challenge for her?"
After the waiter finished explaining, he looked at Rem with anticipation. Seeing such a handsome, distinguished man, even if they'd never have someone peel shrimp for them in their lifetime, watching him do it for his girlfriend was a treat.
"We don't need..."
Lizzy hadn't finished her sentence when Rem cut her off.
"Who says we don't need? The restaurant business is tough; don't knock their enthusiasm for hosting events."
Rem said to Lizzy, then instructed the waiter, "Could you bring us two more pairs of disposable gloves, please?" The man began to unfasten his watch, clearly ready to get serious about the task.
"Of course, sir," the waiter responded with a smile, immediately making arrangements.

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....
