Liz had prepared the voice recorder the day she flew back home, a precaution she kept in her purse just in case.
If Liz hadn’t thought letting Daisy speak to her big brother might help him wake up, she would have preferred Daisy not to linger.
But Liz had her reservations about Daisy, sensing something off about her.
If Daisy truly cared about whether her son would wake, why hadn’t she visited more when Thaddeus first fell into a coma?
“Alright, ma’am, rest assured.”
In the hospital room, Daisy, fuming, shut the door and glared at Thaddeus.
“Such a heartless girl, treating your stepbrother so well! But don’t forget, you’re my flesh and blood. If you wake up, don’t go siding against your own family!
Two years ago, if you hadn’t eavesdropped on me talking to your uncle, insisting on snitching to that girl, would you have ended up in that accident?”
After leaving the hospital, Liz returned to the Pine Villa apartment where Yolanda was staying. It was a place Hanna had compensated Yolanda with, and she had been living there for a while.
When Liz signed the divorce papers, Remington insisted she choose a property, and she picked an apartment in Pine Villa, right above Yolanda’s. But it wasn’t ready yet, so Liz was going to stay with Yolanda for the time being.
That night, they were in bed together, playing games on their phones and chatting away.
Upon hearing Liz had gone for a 4D ultrasound, Yolanda, excited, tossed her phone aside and sat up.
“Where’s the scan? Come on, show me Daisy’s pretty pictures!”
Liz, pulled by her enthusiasm, also quit her game.
“Remington took it with him.”
Yolanda kicked the blankets, “Typical Remington, acting all high and mighty just for accompanying you to a prenatal checkup and even snatching the loot!”
Liz laughed, “Alright, let’s sleep. It’s been a while since I’ve slept with my godmother. Daisy’s happy, right?”
She placed Yolanda’s hand on her belly, and Daisy immediately started kicking happily.
Yolanda was overjoyed, “Did the doctor say if our Daisy’s a little prince or princess?”
Liz shook her head, “I didn’t ask.”
To her, whether it was a boy or girl, Daisy was her surprise, her joy.
Remington hadn’t asked either, but coming out of the exam room, he had hugged her, wishing for a sweet and lovely daughter.
“Good, we’ll have a surprise to look forward to.”
Yolanda laid back down, then suddenly pulled off a wig piece, revealing a scar underneath where her hair hadn’t grown back.
Liz leaned in to inspect the scar.

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....
