Chapter 365
Yolanda froze for a second before Stella pushed the tube of burn cream closer, offering it with a smile, “Better get this on her quick, before blisters start forming.”
Gratefully receiving it, Yolanda beamed, “Thank you so much! What a coincidence you have burn cream on you.”
Stella nodded, “I accidentally burned myself a few days back, and this cream really works.”
She even pulled off her glove to show a small burn mark on her wrist.

“Thank you, I really appreciate it,” Yolanda hurriedly expressed her gratitude.
“It’s fate as much as coincidence; don’t mention it,” Stella nodded to both her and Lizetta before turning to
leave.
“Hey, I haven’t given this back to you,” Yolanda, turning around with the tube in hand, was surprised.
“Just use it up. Apply a thick layer; it works better that way. My burn’s already healed, so no need to return

“Wait, let us pay you for it.”
Stella just waved her hand dismissively and walked away.

Facing what seemed like a crisis, Lizetta actually laughed and tapped her nose, “It’s been just a minute or two since the burn. She couldn’t have foreseen this and prepared poisoned cream. Don’t worry. It’s probably just a coincidence.”
Thinking it over, Yolanda continued applying the cream on Lizetta’s hand, her thoughts swirling with complexity.
That Stella, she seemed alright. Certainly not the same breed as Evelina, but thinking of Stella’s connection with Remington, Yolanda felt distinctly uncomfortable.
Lizetta’s jacket was ruined and no longer wearable. Yolanda had spare clothes in her car, so after leaving the restroom, she went to the parking lot to fetch them for Lizetta.
On her way back to their private room, Lizetta stopped dead in her tracks.

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....
