Liz felt a shiver run down her spine as the man caught up to them from behind. Nelson sensed her unease and
gently squeezed her hand. Turning to Remington, he asked, "And who might your grandfather be? You sure make
it sound like we're old friends."
Remington's gaze rested on Liz, who stood quietly beside Nelson with her head bowed. He spoke in a gentle
tone, "Please, Mr. Madden, give us your blessing."
Nelson snorted, clearly not inclined to give any blessings. But then he remembered that if it hadn't been for
Remington's call that morning, informing him of the complications at the hospital, they wouldn't have rushed
back from Tranquil Meadows so quickly. If not for that, Liz might have already been spirited away by the

with heavy sorrow and reluctance to let go. When their eyes met, the tension eased, and a smile flickered across
his face. His voice was soft as he said, "Congratulations on reuniting with your family."
Liz stared at Remington, taken aback by his reaction. He rarely smiled, often appearing distant and aloof. Even
his smiles were usually tinged with mockery. But now, his smile was warm-a sincere congratulation, genuinely
happy for her.
Liz was puzzled by his reaction; she thought he wouldn't be pleased and

would be angry and upset. Her surprised expression was too evident, filling Remington's heart with a renewed
sense of bitterness. After a moment of silence,
continued, "I mean it. The
Hawthorne family abandoned you, the Gardenia family only brought you pain, and the Dashiell family and I..."
Remington's voice grew hoarse. He had always known that Liz had seen the Dashiell family and him as her
salvation. She was too pure, grateful, and trusting. He had arrogantly considered himself her savior,
ignoring and doubting her, letting her down and then manipulating her back with small gestures repeatedly
failing her until all their affection was exhausted...
