Stella finally relaxed, sinking back into her hospital bed.
She turned her face towards Remington, a pale smile of comfort gracing her lips before she slowly closed her eyes.
Remington caught the doctor's eye with a quick glance. The doctor immediately stepped forward to administer Stella's treatment, her eyelids quickly becoming unbearably heavy.
Before slipping into unconsciousness, she heard a man's voice, "You'll be back with your family soon, while my bride is still waiting for me. Sorry, I can't stay with you anymore."
Stella wanted to grasp tightly, but she soon fell into darkness.
Remington let go of Stella's hand as the ambulance came to a halt, and he jumped out.
The Maybach, racing alongside the ambulance, also screeched to a stop. Unnoticed, fine snowflakes had begun to fall from the sky.
Cedric opened the rear car door, holding an umbrella as he stepped forward to greet, "Boss, your suit is in the car."
Before he could finish, Remington pushed away the umbrella and strode to the driver's seat, yanking the door open.
"Out!"
Christ in the driver's seat paused, and then realizing Remington intended to drive himself, hurriedly got out.
Bending quickly to enter, Remington didn't wait for Christ to steady himself before the Maybach, like a bolt of black lightning, tore through the curtain of snow and sped away.
Lizetta stood in the reception area of the banquet hall, spotting Evelina dressed in a sleek black satin gown. Lizetta frowned slightly, utterly irritated. Yet, Evelina approached with a smile.
"Sis, congratulations are truly in order. But where's the groom? One might think you're marrying Lucian instead. You two do seem quite a match."
Yolanda stepped forward, annoyed, "Evelina, it's a miracle you've lived this long without getting smacked."
Lucian scoffed, raising an eyebrow, "Perhaps she'll end up dead in the streets by tomorrow."

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....
