The car was barreling down towards Stella's silhouette, getting closer and closer by the second.
Just when a collision seemed imminent, Lizetta clenched her eyes shut, gripping the steering wheel tightly as she floored the gas pedal.
After zooming past, Lizetta slammed on the brakes, opening her eyes to scan the rearview mirror.
But there was no bloodied figure of Stella behind or in front of the car.
The spot where Stella had been standing was now eerily empty, leaving Lizetta gasping for breath.
Her emotions were at a breaking point, unable to discern whether she had actually felt the impact or not.
Was it all just an illusion, and Stella had never been there?
Or had Stella been swept under the car?
As Lizetta sat there dazed and frantic, a figure in black emerged from the bushes to the side, helping up a slender silhouette.
It was unmistakably Stella.
Clearly, in the nick of time, this mysterious figure had leaped at Stella, rolling with her into the roadside bushes.
Stella's forehead was bleeding from where she must have hit something, but when she locked eyes with Lizetta, she pushed away the man in black who was assisting her, staggering out of the bushes.
She raised her hand, flipping Lizetta off, then smirked.
Her eyes sparkled with disdain and mockery.
Her lips moved silently, mouthing two words.
"Loser!"
Lizetta's mouth tasted of metal, her eyes burning with hatred.
She shifted into reverse, aiming the car at Stella once more.
But then.
Bang!
A car suddenly darted out from the West family estate, crashing into Lizetta's rear, halting her vehicle just in front of Stella.

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....
