Shattered Illusions Love Lies and Redemption (Lizetta and Remington) novel Chapter 978
Bang!
The phone hit the wall and shattered into pieces.
Stella finally exhaled, only to realize that everyone in the room was staring at her with mocking eyes.
Even Margaret was glaring at her as if she were the biggest fool in the world.
It dawned on Stella, belatedly, that surveillance footage like that would have a backup.
What good would destroying the phone do her, anyway?
If anything, smashing it only made her look more guilty and desperate.
“Stella, are you really still pretending to be innocent?” Margaret sneered, her voice dripping with scorn. “Do you think I’m an idiot? If I didn’t keep some evidence, how would I ever—”
She paused abruptly, biting back the rest of her sentence.
She’d almost said it: If she didn’t keep evidence, what would happen if Stella actually managed to become Mrs. Dashiell with her help, then turned around and denied everything?
That’s why Margaret had secretly installed the camera in the room in the first place, recording every conversation she and Stella ever had—just in case.
She’d never imagined the footage would end up exposing Stella instead. It was almost poetic justice.
If it weren’t for that, with Stella’s shamelessness, Margaret would never have been able to prove her innocence.
Stella bit down on her lip so hard she drew blood.
She didn’t need to look up to feel Remington’s icy gaze on her, as sharp and cold as a blade.
Mr. Miller stepped forward hastily, desperate to smooth things over.
“Mr. Dashiell, my daughter’s a fool. She was completely taken advantage of—she’s just too naive and thought Stella was truly her friend. She got tricked, that’s all. Please, could you find it in your heart to forgive her this once? I’ll make sure she learns her lesson—”
He broke off to whirl around and slap Margaret hard across the face.
“Idiot!”
Margaret crashed to the floor again, her cheeks blazing red and swollen. She looked up at Remington, eyes brimming with tears, pleading.

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....
