Evelina clutched at her heart as she hurried away from the restroom.
Today, she'd received a call from her doctor, suggesting she make a trip to the obstetrics and gynecology department.
Thinking of the baby growing inside her as her last bargaining chip, she didn't dare delay and rushed over immediately.
Little did she know, she would witness Remington bringing Lizetta to visit Barbara, who clearly disliked Lizetta.
Now, Stella had been brought back into the picture; wanting to see Lizetta's downfall, she had stealthily followed them.
What she hadn't expected was to overhear such a revelation. This Stella was an impostor! The real Stella hadn't been found at all!
Why should Lizetta be so lucky! Filled with indignation, Evelina arrived at the obstetrics department and entered the doctor's office.
Hearing the doctor's diagnosis made her tremble, disbelievingly caressing her slightly protruding belly, her eyes darkening.
On the way home from the hospital.
Lizetta and Remington sat together in the backseat, his brows furrowed deeply, clearly in a bad mood.
Lizetta figured his conversation with Barbara must not have gone well either. She took the initiative, holding his hand and leaning in to say, "If she really can't come around, maybe we shouldn't rush the wedding."
Remington held Lizetta's hand in return, his fingers caressing her wedding ring, his lips curving slightly as he said, "So understanding?"
Lizetta rested against his shoulder, "Maybe she just needs more time to accept it. Who knows, she might come around."
Besides, Barbara's days seemed numbered; they could always have the wedding after she passed.
After all, she had waited over two years for the wedding; what was a little longer?
Remington tightened his grip on her wrist, his gaze darkening as he asked, "Are you compromising, or do you not care much for the wedding?"
Lizetta frowned slightly; she was thinking of him, not wanting him to be in a tough spot. Why did his words sound like he was upset?

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....
