But he couldn't bring himself to say it out loud. He had this sinking feeling that if he did, she'd just turn on her heel and leave-probably stepping on him a couple of times for good measure before she did. "I'm not dizzy, just... that really hurt. I'm a bit weak now. Can you give me a hand?" Remington reached out his uninjured arm to Lizetta, who frowned, clearly reluctant to help.
With a sigh, he withdrew his arm, propping himself up against the wall to slowly stand. But just as Lizetta let out a sigh of relief, Remington's towering frame swayed. Instinctively, Lizetta reached out to steady him.
A small smile played on Remington's lips before he suppressed it. "Thanks."
Lizetta's brows furrowed as she thought of Mrs. Bernice Madden, who Andrea had taken to get treated, and realized she had to check on the old lady in the burn unit anyway. Since Remington got burned trying to save Mrs. Bernice Madden, her impatience gave way to resignation.
"Fine, let's go. I'll help you get treated."
As she supported Remington out, he tried to get closer to her, shifting his body towards hers. But recalling her previous frail state, though now slightly recovered, he restrained himself, maintaining a respectful distance.
It wasn't until they were in the elevator that he broke the silence. "So, Mrs. Bernice Madden was here to visit you? Liz, you're staying in this hospital too? What a coincidence."
Lizetta chuckled, "Do I look like a fool to you? Mr. Dashiell's family owns a hospital. Why would I stay here of all places?"
She hadn't called him out on his act, but that didn't mean she was oblivious or would let him treat her like a fool.
