Remington's gaze was heavy, Eileen was posing as the real Stella, and currently, only four people were aware of this. Himself, Martin, Eileen, and Lizetta.
But where did Emma get her information?
"Come on, spill it! Who told you? Whoever did has a lot to answer for!" Martin was livid.
Remington had an imposing presence, and Emma was visibly frightened, speaking in a panicked tone.
"Last night, someone slipped a letter through my front door; it’s written in the letter."
The West family was dwindling, with hardly any relatives left. Her son was Barbara's only nephew, who had been diligently caring for her by her bedside.
If Stella was a fake, then her son's inheritance was secured. It was natural for mother and son to be unable to keep this under wraps.
"Show me the letter," frowning, Martin reached out his hand.
However, at that moment, the doctors finished their emergency intervention. Martin and Remington couldn't continue their interrogation, turning their attention to the doctors.
Lizetta noticed Remington tense up, raised her other hand, and clasped both of her hands around his, silently offering comfort.
She didn't wish for anything bad to happen to Barbara, even though Barbara hadn't been kind to her.
"The patient has been stabilized, but she mustn't be subjected to such severe stress anymore."
Fortunately, the doctor came out looking relieved, announcing good news. After the doctor left, they entered the hospital room.
"Barbara, how are you feeling? I'm sorry, the truth about Stella. I lied to you," Martin leaned in, holding Barbara's hand, his voice heavy with remorse.
Barbara, having just been through a life-and-death ordeal, had no strength left to speak, only managing to emit a weak sound.
Martin had to lean in closer to make out her words, and then immediately turned to Evelina in the crowd.
"Evelina, come here."

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....
