He grabbed her hand, forcing her fingertips to brush against his lips. His lips were stained with a crimson hue, marking her fingertips and the back of her hand.
The hospital’s lobby was deserted at night.
But there were still staff members on duty in the corners. Lizetta leaned against the man, her cheeks flushing with embarrassment and anger, her almond eyes veiled with a thin mist of shame.
“Psycho!”
She pushed against him, her eyes clear of any emotions.
Remington stared into her eyes, feeling a tightness in his chest as he smirked coldly.
“My love is cheap, but how much better is your love that you can turn on and off at will?”
Lizetta pushed him away again.
“Yes, my love is easy to turn on and off, and it is cheap! Mr. Dashiell, go find Stella. She’s perfect for you! You two have been through so much together, she’s faced trials and tribulations for you!
You’ve been searching for her for years, risking life and limb, your love for each other is more profound than mountains, deeper than the seas, more genuine than diamonds. I’m truly touched! I sincerely wish you both stick together, till death do you part, inseparable as ever!”
She said too much in one breath, struggling to catch her breath in the echoing hall.
Remington’s handsome face turned gloomy, his jaw clenched.
Lizetta turned to leave, but the man stepped in front of her suddenly.
She bumped into his chest, looking up at him through gritted teeth.
“Go see a psychiatrist if you’re sick!”
In the next second, Remington scooped her up in his arms and strode outside, saying,
“I’ve made it clear about Stella. I feel guilty towards her but there’s no romantic feeling involved! Stop causing trouble and misunderstanding on purpose!”
Listening to his resolute words, Lizetta found it absurd.
She wondered, did he really know who he loved in his heart?
She was tired, no longer interested in arguing with him.
Let him think whatever he wants. Since he wouldn’t let go easily, she could only plan another escape.
But this time, she had to come up with a plan that wouldn’t easily arouse Remington’s suspicion, so she wouldn’t end up like last time when she couldn’t even make it out of the airport before being dragged back.

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....
