NovelAppChapter 821 The next morning dawned bright and early, and Lizetta rose with the sun. Her first destination was the Dashiell Memorial Hospital to check on her elder brother, Thaddeus.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThaddeus had woken up, and to everyone's relief, his recovery was progressing swiftly. By morning, he was already able to speak in complete sentences, using the hospital bed for support. When he saw Lizetta, his gaze shifted to the space behind her. "Where's your brother-in-law? Didn't he cwith you?" Lizetta, busy arranging a variety of vitamins and health supplements on the table, nearly let her smile slip. "Big brother, since when did you start calling Remington my brother-in-law? You always used to call him Mr. Dashiell." Indeed, Thaddeus had always maintained a formal distance with Remington, addressing him with the respect due to his aloof and dignified demeanor. Now, with her and Remington's relationship having shifted, Thaddeus's sudden familiarity seemed out of place to Lizetta. She was about to suggest he revert to the formal address when Thaddeus's expression turned slightly anxious. "Did you two have a fight?" Lizetta quickly shook her head, "No, nothing like that... We're good. It's just...you never called him that before, so it feels a bit odd." Thaddeus's laughter broke the brief tension.

"I told you to wait for me. You couldn't have been that impatient in the tit tookto park, could you?" Meeting his gaze, a soft blush crept over Lizetta's cheeks. He had claimed to be too busy for a visit just the day before, yet here he was, first thing in the morning. And how did he always seem to know exactly where she was? Her thoughts must have been transparent, for Remington's gaze lingered on her, his smile deepening as if to say, "Aren't you even a little bit surprised to see me?" and, "I'm playing along for your brother's sake, you ungrateful little thing."

Reluctantly, Lizetta led Remington to sit by the bed. No sooner had they settled than Thaddeus added, "It's early, you two should catch up on srest. That way, I might get to be an uncle sooner rather than later."
