As the car pulled into the grand estate, Remington stepped out and carefully assisted Lizetta from the vehicle.

Fiona Dashiell, having received word of their arrival, couldn't wait and, holding Tina's hand, hastened from the mansion to greet them.

"Liz, is that really you, Liz? Oh, my stars!"

Upon seeing the elderly lady making her way over, Lizetta hurried to meet her.

The sight of her running with a prominent baby bump alarmed the old woman, who turned to Remington with an anxious expression and scolded, "What are you, a statue? Grab her, will you?" Instead of merely grabbing her, Remington bent down and, in one swift motion, scooped Lizetta into his arms and carried her over to the elderly lady before gently setting her down.

Lizetta glared at him, and he simply smirked, "Can't have grandma calling me useless, now can we?"

The old lady, seeing their interaction, couldn't help but beam with joy and eagerly asked, "Liz, have you and Remington made up?" Lizetta, feeling guilty under the old lady's hopeful gaze and blaming Remington for the misunderstanding, hesitated before speaking.

"Grandma..."

Before she could continue, Remington smoothly interjected, "Grandma, it was on the condition of a divorce that she agreed to come back with me."

Lizetta was worried Fiona might be disappointed, but to her surprise, the elderly lady took her hand, rolled her eyes at Remington, and said, "I knew it! You never had the charm to woo anyone, you useless lump."
