whole time.
When she mentioned Echo Ridge Villa, Cedric didn’t show the slightest change in expression.
Cedric was Remington’s personal assistant. If Remington had another woman holed up at Echo Ridge Villa, how could Cedric possibly not know?
Clearly, Evelina was just spouting nonsense again!
Looking for a woman for sixteen years, does Evelina not know how to count? How old was Remington sixteen years ago?
She might as well make up a story about Remington reincarnating with memories of his past life, searching for a lover from twenty–eight years ago!
Ridiculous!
Lizetta’s mood lightened considerably, and she turned, her face bright with a smile, and hurried toward the hospital room.
Cedric watched her go, happy to see Lizetta so concerned about his boss.
Then, Cedric sighed to himself.
To think Remington, with his personality, could woo his wife so quickly, and here he was, Cedric, a decent man, still single.
Damn this superficial world!
Cedric touched his face, deciding to buy some expensive facial masks after work and treat himself.
In the hospital room.
When Lizetta pushed the door open, she saw Remington sitting up in bed, going through some documents.
She quickly walked over and snatched the documents from his hand.
Remington, mistaking her for a bodyguard at first, looked up with an annoyed expression.
