"Just some extra words with Litchi, I'm flattered, really."
Remington raised an eyebrow, "Well then, forget it..."
Timothy cut him off swiftly, "Even so, who can put a price on my golden words? So, I won't be shy with you, Remi. Much appreciated. With that attitude, I bet this year we’ll be toasting to you and Litchi’s wedding."
Cassius watched Timothy’s sycophantic display with a feeling of suffocation, his irritation growing.
He stood up, "I need some fresh air."
He strode out quickly, while Cedric had just finished preparing breakfast, setting up the tray over the bed, before making his exit, leaving Timothy and Remington to their private conversation.
"Now that things between you and Litchi are going so smoothly, should I maybe speed things up on my end?"
The Starlight Group and the Temple Group had been collaborating in secret over the past couple of months.
This collaboration was closely aligned with the three projects that the Starlight Group had previously worked on deeply with the West family.
Timothy was well aware that this was all part of Remington's plan, laid out over two months ago, to eventually push the West family out of the Starlight Group's big picture.
But the collaboration with the Temple Group was still under wraps, and Martin was completely in the dark about it.
Just the other day, Martin had attended a finance summit, delivering the opening speech and sharing his visions for NovaTech Innovations' future, blissfully unaware of the futile path ahead.
"No need to rush; sticking to the original plan is best."
Hastiness could lead to mistakes, revealing our hand to Martin before we're ready, which would only complicate matters.
Timothy nodded in agreement, "Alright."
Yet, he couldn't help but feel a bit melancholic about how good the relationship between Remington and the West family used to be. Who would have thought it would come to this?

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....
