Shattered Illusions: Love, Lies, and Redemption

Chapter 840

As soon as Remington felt a twinge of guilt, she would subtly make her small requests, and Remington would usually agree. However, when Remington heard that the cufflinks were with Lizetta, his expression softened slightly, but he still chose to feign ignorance. "What did she misunderstand?" he asked.

Stella felt like she was choking on her own frustration, barely managing to keep a neutral face. She withdrew her hand, explaining, "Liz probably saw such personal items with me and assumed we were close. She got really angry, snatched the cufflinks away, and pushed me to the ground..."
