Shattered Illusions Love Lies and Redemption (Lizetta and Remington) novel Chapter 1092

After coaxing Fiona to sleep, Lizetta stepped out of the hospital room with Remington.

Hand in hand, they walked slowly down the corridor toward Lizetta's room.

She tilted her head up, looking at him with genuine curiosity.

"Why did you call Grandma out on her acting just now?"

If Remington hadn't exposed the charade, Fiona likely would have pressured them into marching straight to city hall for a marriage certificate today, and Lizetta might have actually said yes out of sheer panic.

Wasn't that exactly what Remington had been dreaming of?

While assuming so might seem a little arrogant, Remington's recent behavior made it incredibly obvious how desperate he was to remarry her.

Remington looked down at her, his deep, boundless gaze softening with an overwhelming, tender affection. He answered with absolute sincerity.

"I dream every single day about us getting married again as soon as possible. But this time, I want it to be because you truly want it, not because you were tricked or pressured into it."

Her eyes fluttered, a subtle ripple of emotion stirring in her chest.

"What if I never make up my mind? What if I never want to get married again?"

She had agreed to be his girlfriend, but she genuinely hadn't thought about taking things further just yet.

She wasn't ready for marriage. The memory of their failed two-year union, defined by its suffocating emotional distance, and the disastrous wedding that never happened, still haunted her.

Subconsciously, a part of her actively rejected the idea of returning to that institution.

She stared fixedly at him, watching the gentle, fragmented light shift in his eyes.

He lifted his hands to cradle her face, leaning down until they were eye-level, his tone solemn and devoted.

"If you never want to, then I'll just be your boyfriend forever. Whenever you're ready to give me that title, we can get married. As long as I'm the only boyfriend you ever have, I'm perfectly fine with that."

Lizetta burst into a soft laugh, playfully swatting his chest.
