Shattered Illusions Love Lies and Redemption (Lizetta and Remington) novel Chapter 717

Margaret, though not seriously hurt, lifted her head to reveal a face smeared with frosting, her once delicate makeup now a chaotic mix of colors like a painter’s palette gone awry.

Meanwhile, Mrs. Davis, dismissing Margaret with a flick of her wrist, stormed furiously towards the pregnant Jane.

Jane had been sitting next to Stella when Mrs. Davis burst in. Catching Margaret's warning glance, she quickly ducked behind Stella for cover.

As Mrs. Davis approached, Stella instinctively stood up and asked, “Mrs. Davis, what are you doing...”

“You little wench, how dare you stand in my way!”

Fueled by rage and not recognizing Stella—who had spent three months recovering from broken ribs at home—Mrs. Davis mistook her for one of Jane's accomplices.

Grabbing Stella by the hair and delivering a powerful slap, she sent Stella crashing to the ground, her mouth tasting of blood.

Jane, with nowhere left to hide, let out a terrified scream.

Lizetta and Yolanda, arriving at the scene, witnessed this chaos.

Lizetta clicked her tongue, thinking, “No wonder Ms. Miller chose Mrs. Davis to do her dirty work. Her impulsive nature is quite effective.”

Although Mrs. Davis's situation—her husband's infidelity and being manipulated by others—elicited some sympathy, the video of Mrs. Davis barging into the dressing room to beat Yolanda without a word soured any potential goodwill from Lizetta.

To her, the scene unfolding before her eyes was somewhat satisfying.

Yolanda, spotting Margaret climbing out from a heap of cake, said with a smirk, “Mrs. Davis is just being misled. I’ll go and vent for her.”
