The doctor examined Lizetta and, despite some external injuries, found nothing internally that would cause her to remain unconscious. It was concluded that her prolonged coma might have psychological roots, and it was suggested that her loved ones should try talking to her more.
That's when Remington realized that Lizetta didn't have many people who mattered to her. Since she was eight and came to live with the Dashiell family, he and his grandmother were her closest kin. Yet, it was also them, and the Dashiell family at large, who had caused her the deepest wounds.
Unable to wake her, Remington called Yolanda and Lucian to her side, but despite their long conversations with Lizetta, there was no change. Yolanda mentioned that Mrs. Bernice Madden had a special bond with Lizetta, suggesting that perhaps she could make a difference.
With a heavy heart, Remington dialed Jerome's number.
“What’s happened?” Jerome's worry was palpable through the brief silence that followed, his tone carrying an edge of accusation.
Gripping the phone tighter, Remington's voice was rough with emotion, “She's in a coma... Mrs. Bernice Madden—”
“I'm bringing Grandma over right now,” Jerome interjected before Remington could finish. Without waiting for a thank you, he hung up, his concern and urgency clear even through the phone.
Feeling a weight on his chest, Remington tore off his tie in frustration, struggling to breathe.
Just then, there was a knock on the door. He opened it, hoping for good news about Lizetta, but instead found Cedric and a psychologist.
“Mr. Dashiell, Dr. Daphne is here to see you,” Cedric announced.

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....
