Chapter 158

    Oh, this is epic.


    “Badass Remington’s handiwork? Ynda asked


    Lizetta nodded, “Seems like it.”


    Content ? provided by N?velDrama.Org.


    Only Remington could clean up this mess so thoroughly


    Ynda clicked her tongue, “What’s with Badass Remington? Is Miss Goody Two–Shoes about to blow


    a gasket? This pair of lovebirds sure has a werd vibe. They havent ted the knot yet they’re already out


    of sync?”


    Lizetta just gave a faint smile, she wasnt surprised


    “Remington’s always been low–key Just cause he pulls the hot search doesn’t mean he’s got beef with


    Evelina. We’re not officially divorced yet. Maybe he doesn’t want Evelina to be thrust into the spotlight


    too soon and took k as the other woman Could be he s protecting Evelina”


    Lizetta’s analysis was on point, no tears, no heartache


    Ynda didn’t know whether to feel happy for her or sorry


    It just hit her right in the feels


    She waved it off, “Enough about the jerk and his mistress. I’m gonna go ship you and Lucian to cleanse


    my pte. Badass Remington wouldn’t pull your hot search too, would he??


    Seeing that the hot search on Lizetta and Lucian was still going strong, even climbing the ranks,


    Ynda


    said.


    “This hot search is like hinting Badass Remington is a cuckold, shielding our side!”


    Lizetta’s gaze drifted, with a moment of tranquility in her eyes


    Since Remington had removed his and Evelina’s hot search, he surely knew about her and Lucian’s


    buzz.


    The fact that he ignored it clearly showed he had let go, not seeing her as Mrs. Dashiell anymore.


    Which was just fine.


    “Liz? you hear me?”


    Ynda’s voice snapped Lizetta out of her reverie.


    “Huh?


    “I said haters gonna hate. Look at this, they’re mocking you, saying you’re not even in Lucian’s league.”


    Seeing Ynda’s face flush with irritation, Lizetta chuckled and ruffled her hair.


    “Don’t be silly, Lucian and I aren’t an item. This whole ‘not worthy thing is nonsense. Why bother with


    them?” “That’s not the point! I can’t stand anyone talking smack about you! And there’s this one person


    posing as a dance connoisseur, who mentioned world–ss dance master Dories arriving in Zion City


    this afternoon and called her the elusive gem of our country’s dance scene.


    Ynda excitedly pulled Lizetta, “You’re meeting Master Dories at the airport this afternoon, right?


    Conta on, let’s pear up to p those haters in the facer


    Master Dories wasing to the country with her legendary ballet troupe for a world tour hot in Zion C


    but at the Sea City Art Center.


    She would only be in Zion City for half a day to meet a few local dancers.


    It was a tight schedule, but Dories agreed to meet Lizetta during her downtime.


    Lizetta had arranged with Dories’s assistant Anna to pick her up from the airport and apany her


    back to the hotel.


    After picking up the flowers she had ordered, Lizetta was almost at the airport when Lucian’s call came


    through.


    “Litchi, I just got out of a three–hour sim training and caught wind of the hot search. Already had my


    assistant handle it. You good?”


    “I’m fine. But Lucian, since when did you as an athlete start living like a celebrity?”


    The fact that watching a car race with him had made it to the hot search was unexpected for Lizetta.


    “Can’t help it, my good looks always overshadow my talent, such a hassle.”


    Lizettaughed, “Your talent is clearly overshadowed by your thick skin! Don’t worry about the hot


    search for me; it doesn’t matter whether it stays up or not.”


    After all, pulling from the hot search costs money, and Lizetta didn’t want Lucian to go out of his way or


    spend extra because of her.


    But Lucian sensed something off, “Litchi, you and Remi aren’t seriously getting a divorce, are you?”


    Lizetta didn’t hide it from him, “Yeah, but keep it under wraps for us. I gotta go, busy here.”


    Meeting Master Dories went smoothly. She wasn’t the ice queen Lizetta had expected, but rather


    down–to–earth and even a bit naive and romantic.


    On the way back to the hotel, Lizetta yed the tour guide, sharing a lot about Zion City and Sea City’s


    attractions and local culture.


    Master Dories enjoyed their conversation a lot and insisted on having Lizetta by her side at the hotel.


    What Lizetta didn’t expect was to run into Remington and Evelina at the hotel, right outside the room


    Master Dories had booked.
