Liz frowned, instinctively stepping back as the man approached.

That step froze Remington in his tracks, darkening his already stern face.

"Liz, chere. I'll take you for your prenatal checkup," he said, barely concealing his anger as he reached out

to her.

Before Liz could respond, Yolanda crossed her arms and said, "Oh, Mr. Dashiell has a moment to spare? With your

busy schedule, you still find tfor Liz, who's just lost her mom. We really shouldn't trouble you, after all, Liz

isn't your concern anymore."

After her comment, Yolanda gave Hamilton a significant look.

Hamilton immediately lifted the sign he was holding, waving it at Remington.

But in the next second, Remington grabbed the sign and tossed it in a perfect arc into a nearby trash can.

Yolanda glared at Hamilton, her look clearly asking, "How could you be so useless?"

Hamilton shrugged innocently, "I didn't expect him to actually do something about it. Mr. Dashiell is so ruthless;

no wonder Liz is ditching him even while pregnant!"

"Ruthless? Do you know what he's best at?" Yolanda, forgiving Hamilton's fumble, chimed in.

"No idea."

"Juggling two hearts at once."

The two mocked Remington while Liz silently bit her lip.

In the past, Remington's friends had sneered at her too.

But the man, with a stern face, ignored Yolanda and Hamilton, his gaze fixed on Liz, the pressure in his eyes

immense as he repeated, "Chere."

However, Liz's compliance in the past was because she saw him as a brother, a husband, someone she could

trust and rely on.

Now, she wished to treat him as a stranger.

Instead of moving towards Remington, she stepped towards Hogan, trying to remain calm.

"Mr. Dashiell, didn't plan on getting

a checkup today. Even if | did, | wouldn't need your help. I've already agreed to register at Skyline Hospital with

my senior brother, who will arrange everything for me. | just wish you'd stop bothering me.

Her rejection was clear, leaving no room for Remington's pride.

In front of so many people, no one had ever embarrassed Remington like this.

Feeling that Remington should get

the hint and back off, especially

since he always cared about maintaining his dignity in public, Liz turned to Hogan, "Senior brother, could you

please take me?

Hogan smiled and nodded, "Of course, let's go."

As they were about to leave, Remington suddenly moved forward, grabbing Liz by the arm. Before Liz could

react, he snatched the teddy bear she was holding and tossed it to Hogan.

Catching it instinctively, Hogan watched as Remington scooped Liz up and headed towards his car. "Remington!

Have you no shame!" Yolanda yelled, about to chase after them, but Ray blocked her way.

"Ms. Yolanda, the lady is carrying

care of

child. It's his right to

his woman and child..

shameful about that?

As for you, Ms. Yolanda, if you're not keen on acting and prefer matchmaking, | know a few agencies. Shall |

introduce you?"

Yolanda clenched her fists, visibly angry, but she couldn't overpower Ray.

And with that, Remington carried Liz into his car and drove away.

In the car, Liz sat emotionless, not bothering to struggle or argue, knowing it was pointless.

She appeared exhausted, as if even glancing at Remington was too taxing.
