A tear hit the phone screen, blurring Ron's little face.
Lizetta suddenly realized she was crying; she hurriedly wiped the screen, but she just couldn't get it clean.
Instead, the glass only grew slicker as her fingers swiped through the photo gallery.
She finally realized that, without even noticing, she had saved so many pictures of Ron on her phone.
There were solo shots of him, selfies of the two of them, and countless candid photos she had snapped of Remington holding the boy.
"Alright, alright, the child is alive, isn't he? The next step is just bringing him home, so dry those tears."
Nelson Madden's eyes were also misty; he wiped his eyes before stepping forward to gently take the phone from her hands and patting her shoulder.
Lizetta looked up at Nelson with red eyes. "I'm really not a good mother. I keep losing him, over and over again..."
The memory of her first encounter with Ron flashed before her eyes.
She had first met the boy in a restaurant hallway, and he had immediately clung to her fingers, even putting them in his little mouth.
Later, she observed that Ron was usually not the type to warm up to strangers.
When Winnie first took over his care, Lizetta had accompanied them for two whole days before Ron even allowed the nanny to hold him.
Perhaps Ron had recognized her as his mother from the very first moment they met.
That was why he had been so happy, so incredibly attached to her.
And it explained why he had cried so heartbrokenly when the nanny took him away.
Yet, she hadn't suspected a thing; she had completely failed to recognize her own son.
Later, when Ron was being abused by the West family's nanny, he had shown an unusual reliance on her every time their paths crossed.
He had been begging for her help all along, but only now did she realize that it was her Joy crying out for his mother.
She must have disappointed him so much by failing to recognize him.

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....
