Shattered Illusions Love Lies and Redemption (Lizetta and Remington) novel Chapter 462

"Damn, that girl's a real piece of work!"

Lizetta had always sensed something off about Stella, and now she knew why.

On one hand, she acted as if everything was fine, showing off her vulnerabilities, while on the other, she was a bundle of insecurities, unable to face reality.

Such a contradiction indeed.

"Ugh, this is giving me a headache."

Yolanda lifted her hand, intending to rub her temples, but Lizetta quickly stopped her.

"Stop, don't worry about it. I shouldn't have brought it up.

Oh, speaking of which, when you were in surgery yesterday, Cassius was pacing outside the whole time. He only left when they moved you to the ICU. What's up with that?"

Lizetta squinted at Yolanda, who seemed totally unfazed.

"It's just what it looks like."

"And what's that supposed to mean?"

"He's got a thing for me, obviously."

"And you?"

"Me? I couldn't care less."

Staring at Yolanda's nonchalant demeanor, Lizetta felt a bit speechless.

"What do you mean 'couldn't care less'?"

"It means I could play along. He's a rich kid and a big-time actor. I'm not losing anything. In the entertainment world, relationships are a joke anyway. Don't worry, I'm not like you; I don't get attached."

Yolanda winked; her attitude was casual.

Lizetta thought to herself that sometimes feelings can catch you off guard, and before you know it, you're in too deep.

Just as she was about to ask more, she heard a knock on the door.
