Remington was already seated at the dining table when Lizetta paused, shooting a look towards Lina, "The food's great, but the company? Not so much. I'm gonna eat in the lounge."
She turned to leave, the screeching sound of a chair against the floor echoed as a man's figure swiftly approached her.
Lizetta's heart sank. She turned to run, but Remington had already scooped her up.
She kicked and struggled, but she was no match for his strength. He forced her down into a chair and, without waiting for her to settle, he brought a bowl of oatmeal to her lips.
Lizetta clenched her mouth shut, while Remington's resolve was just as strong, as if he could hold the spoon there forever unless she opened her mouth.
Chest heaving, frustrated beyond words, Lizetta swung her hand, knocking the bowl away. With a crash, the porcelain shattered on the floor, and Remington's expression turned ice-cold.
"Lizetta! You really want to defy me? Fine, you're not going out tonight!"
Not this again!
Feeling a lump in her throat like swallowed blood, Lizetta took a deep breath and looked at Remington, her lips curling into a mocking smile.
"Looking at your face makes me nauseous. It's a physical reaction, uncontrollable, sorry."
His expression grew even colder as he sternly ordered, "Another bowl."
Then, he tried again to feed her, "Go on, throw up for me. Throw up and we'll continue. I've got all night."
He spoke with an eerie gentleness, his eyes heavy with fog.
Lizetta clenched her fists, wishing she could puke to his face directly. But she hadn't eaten all day, and now, she couldn't even muster the saliva to spit, let alone stomach acid.
Reluctantly, she opened her mouth.

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....
