Shattered Illusions Love Lies and Redemption (Lizetta and Remington) novel Chapter 710

However, Lizetta wasn't looking at him; she flashed a smile at Remington.

"It's not sudden, I used to call him that before."

Back in the day, when Lizetta first started working at the Starlight Group's secretary's office, Cedric had been a great help to her, and that's how she, along with the other newbies, used to call him.

Later, when Cedric went to Oakridge Heights to pick up a contract for Remington and saw Lizetta, realizing she was Remington's secretly wedded wife, he dared not let Lizetta call him that way anymore.

At the mention of this, Remington's gaze lightly swept over Cedric, his feelings becoming more conflicted.

Previously, Lizetta used to call Cedric by his name, who was, of course, Remington's secretary.

But now, her sudden shift back to calling Cedric by his name clearly meant she was distancing herself from their relationship.

Cedric, on the verge of tears, said, "Ma'am, please, just call me Cedric. I've gotten used to it."

Lizetta smiled again, "Don't worry, I'm not one to mince words. I can switch back easily."

Cedric, "..."

Remington then sharply looked at Lizetta, saying, "You are indeed quite good at switching terms."

For years, she called him 'bro' or 'Remi,' and then suddenly, it was all 'Mr. Dashiell,' 'Mr. Dashiell,' without ever slipping up once.

Lizetta sensed a hint of resentment in his tone and laughed.

"Yes, indeed. Thank you for the compliment, Mr. Dashiell."

Watching her forced smile, Remington sighed in resignation and then asked,

"Should I give Cassius a call?"

Given that the mess with Yolanda was stirred up by Cassius, it was only right for Cassius to take responsibility.

However, as soon as he finished speaking, Lizetta and Yolanda, who was dozing in her arms, almost simultaneously objected.

"Don't."

"No need!"

Yolanda opened her eyes, straightening up in Lizetta's embrace, and said to Remington again,

"I'll book a spot and have someone inform Mr. Dashiell to schedule another time."

Remington thought he was hearing things; was it really that easy to get a meal invitation?

Rounded up, could this be considered a date?

He unconsciously clenched his fist, feeling the real pain, and a smile involuntarily spread across his face.

His voice deep and husky, "Great, I'm always available. Do you not have my WhatsApp? I can..."

He was about to take out his phone, hoping to get Lizetta to unblock him and add him back on WhatsApp, when he heard a deep voice from not far away.

"Liz, why are you standing at the door and not coming in?"

In the next moment, Lizetta, who stood in front of Remington, immediately turned around.

Remington saw her face suddenly light up with a radiant smile, then she quickly walked towards the tall figure emerging from the cottage, greeting him with surprise and affection.

"Big bro, didn't you say you were out of town on a business trip? When did you get back, and you didn’t even tell me!"
