Shattered Illusions Love Lies and Redemption (Lizetta and Remington) novel Chapter 1418

Lizetta froze, struggling to process his words. What did he mean, there is no Stella West anymore?

She looked up, studying Remington's face closely, and caught a fleeting shadow of profound grief in his eyes.

Could it be...

Before she could dwell on it, the frenzied reporters surged forward, shouting a chaotic barrage of questions.

Seeing that they had already captured clear photos of the two documents, Remington handed the file back to Cedric.

Wrapping a protective arm around Lizetta, he turned on his heel and walked away, offering no further comments to the press.

He knew he had dropped enough breadcrumbs. The media was vicious and resourceful—they had more than enough threads to unravel the whole ugly truth themselves.

The reporters tried to give chase, but the bodyguards immediately formed an impenetrable wall.

Realizing they couldn't get any closer to the couple, the journalists gave up. The explosive material they had just gathered was more than enough to break the internet for weeks.

"Ms. West—wait, you aren't Ms. West! Who are you?"

"Why did you impersonate her?"

"Did Martin West put you up to this? What exactly did he force you to do?"

...

Stella—or rather, Hailey Burton.

Her real name was Hailey Burton. With her false identity ripped away and the ravenous press closing in on her, her face twisted in a mask of panic and humiliation. She had no idea what to say.

Covering her face with her hands, she stumbled backward. Her psychological defenses were entirely obliterated.

She mumbled incoherently, "Stop asking me... stop it... I don't know... I don't know anything! Get away from me!"
