Shattered Illusions: Love, Lies, and Redemption ( Lizetta ) novel Chapter 360

Chapter 360 

Remington’s brows furrowed as he stepped forward, positioning himself in front of Lizetta

Lizetta took a step back, looking up at him with a calmness in her eyes that made Remington distinctly uncomfortable. It was as if she was looking at a stranger, through and through

Once upon a time, she would never look at him that way. Remington tensed up, his handsome face turning cold

I’m not going back with you, nor will I listen to you and give up my chance with the dance troupe. I’ve already gone out of my way to save Mr. Dachrell’s face in public. Can’t you, for once, drop your domineering attitude and let me be?” 

Lizetta spoke, feeling both suffocated and frustrated. She took a step to leave and reached for her phone to call Yolanda, who was nowhere to be found

She suddenly looked down, not wanting him to see her vulnerability. But Remington saw it anyway, and his grip loosened slightly in

He leaned in, pressing his forehead against hers, trying to explain

Tm just womed about your health. With the dance rehearsals, performances, and tours, how can I not worry when you’re about to start showing? Isn’t Joy more important than dancing

He said this as he gently kissed her forehead, his voice soft and coaxing. But Lizetta pushed him away, feeling his affections were nothing but pretense
