Conrad sighed and shook his head.
Eartha said anxiously, "Anyone with eyes can see this has something to do with Remington. He definitely hid Andrea. Honey, we raised her and spoiled her. We have to save her. Why haven't the police searched his properties? Why haven't they brought him in for questioning? They need to force him to hand her over..."
"Calm down. I already went to the station. The driver who knocked their car into the lake has been interrogated multiple times, and he insists it was a brake failure.
"He claimed Andrea's car stopped suddenly and he couldn't brake in time, which caused the accident. The police couldn't find any connection between that driver and Remington. With zero evidence, they can't just issue a search warrant based on mere suspicion."
Tears streamed down Eartha's face again. "So we're just going to leave it at that? Who knows what kind of torture she is going through right now. The poor girl didn't do anything, and the police already released her. What right does Remington have to do this? Is there no justice left in Zion City?"
She grew incredibly agitated, looking as if she were about to faint again.
She had already passed out once by the lake, so Conrad quickly helped her lie back down.
Resting against the pillows, Eartha turned her head away and wept silently.
"How did everything fall apart so fast? It's all my fault. I shouldn't have asked you to invite Lizetta over for dinner. If I hadn't, she wouldn't have been in that accident, and Andrea wouldn't have been framed for murder and gone missing. It's all my fault..."
She struck her own chest, her face the very picture of heartbreak and remorse.
Conrad had secretly harbored a few doubts about the events of the past couple of days.
But seeing his wife drowning in guilt, those suspicions completely vanished.

The readers' comments on the novel: Shattered Illusions Love Lies and Redemption (Lizetta and Remington)
Does evil really triumph always above the good in this novel ? How comes Stella's evilness has no end? Does the author believes that by giving justice and importance to bad people like Stella will make this novel interesring? I am starting to lose my patience and ask when will the writer finally will realize that the protagonist is Lizetta and not Stella....
