Lizetta had long suspected that her child wasn't Rem's, and it definitely wasn't a DNA test on her unborn baby that would confirm this.
Just a couple of days ago, she had coerced Edith into letting her undergo an amniocentesis, something she had been keeping a close eye on.
Unexpectedly, Rem arrived and straight-up destroyed Lizetta's amniotic fluid sample.
Trouble had struck Edith's house, and even Hanna found herself under Rem's watchful eye.
Evelina had been tormented by nightmares all night, but in the morning, Rem still hadn't shown up at her door.
Evelina figured Edith must know that if she revealed her involvement, her punishment would only be more severe, hence why she wasn't dragged into it.
But what was Lizetta doing here for a paternity test?
Could it be that the baby in Lizetta's belly really wasn't Rem's? Was Lizetta here to secretly get a paternity test done for some mystery man?
The thought made Evelina's blood boil.
She hurriedly urged April, "April, you've got to find out what she's here for!"
Lizetta approached the service desk and easily got her hands on the paternity test report.
She didn't immediately open it to read the results but clutched the envelope as she left.
Just as she had left, April quickly made her way to the desk.
Once Lizetta was in the car and it started moving, she fumbled with the envelope, unsure of what result she hoped to see.
Taking a deep breath, she opened it.
Inside were two test results, one for Evelina and Elara, and one for herself and Elara.
Yet, when Lizetta saw the final comparison results, she was shocked and then furrowed her brow in confusion.
How could this be? The paternity test showed that Evelina and Elara were indeed mother and daughter, while she and Elara had no biological relation whatsoever.
Could she have been overthinking things?
In another car, Evelina's face turned pale when April relayed what she had found out.
"You're saying she was getting a paternity test done for who and who?"
April looked at her curiously, then repeated, "Lizetta was indeed comparing the DNA between you and Mrs. Hawthorne, and also between her and Mrs. Hawthorne. Is there a problem with that?"
Evelina quickly covered her emotions and scoffed.
"Of course, there's no problem! I look so much like my parents, and I'm the true Hawthorne heiress. What could possibly be wrong?
Ha, I never imagined Lizetta, after all these years, still dreams of being the true heiress, trying to replace me? How ludicrous!"

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....
