Lizetta stared at him, his appearance was actually quite a mess.
Mr. Dashiell, who had always been dignified, aloof, and composed, now had his shirt all wrinkled, hair slightly disheveled, eyes bloodshot, stubble on his chin, and his neck and cheek bore several scratch marks...
Lizetta thought, he must be suffering too, full of regret and sorrow.
But looking at him like this, she felt nothing, absolutely nothing.
Her gaze was empty as she looked at him, and it took her a while before she finally spoke in a hoarse voice.
"Hate you? I guess I should, but... how am I any better than you? I'm the one who's truly at fault."
Lizetta lowered her head, her hands resting on her now empty belly, fingers slowly intertwining tightly.
In her dazed state, she heard faint talking and knew that Thaddeus was safe.
The calls with Zoey and the hospital were just Hans's tricks to lead her on.
Remington had also arranged for bodyguards to protect her. Without Dean and Bess's help, she couldn't imagine what her situation would be like now.
So, what right did she have to hate anyone?
She should hate herself more, for being so foolish!
She had promised to protect her baby but had failed miserably, putting her child in danger.
She had failed to protect her own child, she was a failure as a mother!
Hearing her say this, Remington's guilt, regret, and pain didn't lessen at all, if anything, it felt like salt was being rubbed into his wounds.
His expression changed slightly, and he suddenly pulled her hands out from under the blanket.
Seeing her fingers scratched and bloodied by her own doing, his expression darkened.
"Lizetta, what are you doing! Look at me!"

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....
