Remington shifted Lizetta gently to the side, "Watch out for the broken pieces."
Lizetta glanced down, noticing the shattered remains of the two pots of succulents that had been sitting on the
balcony. Her lips pressed into a tight line.
"So why were you playing around like a cat? Look at this mess!" she groaned, still shaken from the recent scare.
Remington's expression softened, his lips parting slightly.
"Why are you upset with me? I'm broken too, you know. Feel for yourself."
He guided her hand to his chest, his grip firm yet warm. His hands, though elegant and well-manicured at first
glance, bore the rough texture of someone who spent triding, golfing, and at the shooting range.
Despite their coarseness, Lizetta could feel the strong, steady rhythm of his heartbeat beneath her palm.
For a moment, her irritation faded away, replaced by a strange, soft warmth.
"I didn't know the great CEO of the Dashiell Group could mimic a cat so well," she teased.
Remington's lips curved into a playful smile.

He raised an eyebrow, "Hold on tight."
"What?" she stammered as his hand slipped from her waist momentarily, causing her to cling tighter to him, her
hand instinctively wrapping around his neck.
From his pocket, Remington pulled out his phone and tapped the screen. Two distinct cat meows played from the
device.
"So that's your trick," Lizetta huffed, amused by his cleverness.
Remington's eyes darkened slightly, "Are you so worried about your family finding out about us?"
Lizetta lifted her chin defiantly, "Let's be clear, Mr. Dashiell, we're not officially together."
His gaze dropped to where their bodies pressed together, a smirk playing on his lips.
"Not together, yet Ms. Madden doesn't mind being this close?"
Lizetta, unfazed, grinned back at him.
"Totally normal. Besides, it's not like | initiated this. Isn't it a bit forward of you, M Dashiell seeing as we're not
officially a thing? | might have to

Remington chuckled, her spirited response lifting his mood.

He leaned in, their noses brushing gently, his voice a soft, enticing whisper.
"Ms. Madden, have mercy on me."
