The West family, all three of them, were in tears, their eyes pleading as they looked at Remington.
The murderer, now looking utterly vulnerable.
Liz couldn't believe how shameless they could be to act like this.
She felt a chill, finding the situation both ridiculous and terrifying.
Yet, she wasn't sure if Remington would actually show mercy and grant their request.
Remington remained silent, and Liz felt her heart growing colder.
She mocked herself, about to pull her hand from his grasp.
But Remington forcefully separated her fingers, intertwining them with his.
With a cold expression, he pulled Liz to the side, stepping away from Stella, who was clutching at his pant leg.
Stella's expression turned to panic, her eyes filled with disappointment.
Remington looked down at her, "Murder demands retribution. Attempted murder requires a price to be paid. Moreover, I haven't seen any remorse or apology from Barbara from the beginning.
She wasn't acting on impulse; she had been plotting relentlessly! Should I let her go, so she can become more desperate and continue to harm my wife and child?"
For Barbara, what was there to lose?
Killing once or multiple times made no difference to her.
If he showed leniency to Barbara today, Liz might face danger tomorrow, and he was unwilling to forgive anyone who would harm Liz.
Stella's grip weakened as she listened to his harsh words, her injured hand falling limply.

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....
