Remington had always been Cassius's ride-or-die, but he'd never seen Remington this messed up before. Naturally, he was going to stand by his brother.
But Yolanda wasn't having any of it. She spun around, grabbed Cassius, and started shoving him towards the door, fuming.
"Even if Remington turns into a complete nutcase, what's it got to do with Liz? He should be knocking on WestHawthorne's door, not Liz's! She didn't ask him to go out to the boonies! Now get out of here."
Cassius, though pushed, wasn't ready to back down. He looked at Lizetta, frowning.
"Sis, you really have nothing to say?"
Thinking about the years of camaraderie between Lizetta and Remington, and how Lizetta used to care so much about him, Cassius figured she’d soften up.
Yet, in her hospital bed, Lizetta didn't even blink. She just said coldly,
"Then please let him know not every self-sacrifice works."
"Did you hear that? Go let badass Remington give up, get out!"
Yolanda kept pushing, and Cassius clung to the door, "Sis, you got it all wrong, it's not a stunt! And it wasn't Remington who sent me..."
Yolanda, now livid, let go of Cassius, took a step back, and aimed a kick at him.
She intended to boot the man straight out but Cassius, having sparred with her before, dodged at the last second, then accurately grabbed Yolanda's leg.
So, while Cassius did end up leaving, Yolanda also got dragged out of the room with him.
"Let go! You're supposed to be a movie star, for heaven's sake. Holding a woman's leg and not letting go in public, have some shame!"
Yolanda, with one leg in Cassius's grip, hopped on the other.

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....
