Jack's voice was filled with an endless sense of grievance and accusation, yet it seemed to hold back anger, suddenly sounding beside Liz's neck.
It was as if he was about to bite her at any moment.
Liz shivered slightly, tilting her head just a bit.
Thinking about how Remington's Starlight Enterprises and West Enterprises were still closely collaborating, and how Stella was still appearing at Starlight Enterprises as the future lady of the house.
Even the top brass at Starlight Enterprises were rolling out the red carpet for Stella.
Liz truly believed it was a possibility.
Her lips curled into a cool smile, "What? Struck a nerve, so now you're getting defensive?"
Her gaze was cold yet captivating.
Even though she was clearly upset with him, and purposely misinterpreting his intentions, Jack couldn't find it in himself to be angry at her.
He lifted her chin, his handsome face suddenly very close.
So close their noses touched, their breath mingling.
Liz held her breath, her eyes asking what he intended to do.
Jack gazed at her intently, his lips barely moving, "Let's see where I'm being defensive, shall we?"
His lips brushed against hers, almost imperceptibly.
Liz tilted her head back slightly, dodging his breath, "If you have something to say, say it. Don't pull these moves."
"Which moves?"
Jack raised an eyebrow, a teasing smile playing in his eyes.

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....
