Shattered Illusions Love Lies and Redemption (Lizetta and Remington) novel Chapter 753

Cedric watched as Remington's gaze grew colder by the second, but he stood his ground for the sake of the penthouse apartment. No backing down now.

“Sir, sending flowers is nice and all, but ma'am isn't refusing them without reason. You really should try making these handmade roses. They obviously take a lot of effort, and that effort is a clear sign of your affection.

Besides, ma'am has a soft spot for gestures like this. Seeing you go out of your way to make her happy will surely win her over. Once she keeps the flowers, she'll be reminded of you every day…”

Cedric went on and on, but Remington remained unmoved.

Cedric's voice trailed off, realizing perhaps the boss did have his principles and limits after all.

He gave up, “Sorry, sir, I just thought you practicing some crafts now would come in handy later, you know, when you and the lady have little princes or princesses running around. Guess I wasn’t thinking straight. I’ll just head out.”

After saying that, Cedric turned and quickly walked away.

But then, out of nowhere, something Cedric had said struck a chord with Remington, and he suddenly spoke up.

“Have Una stay late tonight for some overtime.”

Una, of course, was the one who knew how to make those handmade roses.

Cedric had been grasping at straws when Remington rejected his idea, thinking he'd been a bit ridiculous.

To his surprise, Remington actually took his suggestion. He couldn’t quite believe it.

Stunned for a moment, Cedric quickly turned back and said, “Of course, sir. I’ll make the arrangements.”

Of course, he had to make sure Una's overtime wouldn’t be noticed by other employees.

Otherwise, if the employees of Starlight Group caught wind of their aloof boss hiding out in his office at night playing with pipe cleaners, the headlines in the gossip columns would be something else.

At Madden Media.

Lizetta had a pretty relaxed morning. Laura hadn’t assigned her any specific tasks or had anyone show her the ropes.

“You!”

Snow didn’t expect Lizetta to confront her so directly, her features twisting in anger.

Indeed, Snow’s face had gone under the knife. At first glance, it looked fine, but a closer look revealed the awkwardness. Any strong expression made it look even more skewed.

Lilian and Jessica quickly grabbed Snow, whispering a few words before dragging her out.

After Lizetta grabbed a cup of water and left the break room, she noticed Mrs. Laura’s office was free of any reports, so she knocked and entered.

Upon entering, she closed the door behind her and walked up to Laura’s desk. Laura looked up, offering a warm smile.

“What’s up? Any problems?”

Judging by Laura’s demeanor, it didn’t seem like she was singling out Lizetta.

Lizetta returned the smile, “Manager, I think I’ve settled in nicely. I was wondering what my tasks will be moving forward. Or if there’s any project that needs an extra hand.”
