Stella and Shirley looked visibly upset, and Margaret couldn’t stand Yolanda's arrogance, snapping back furiously.
"Seriously? A washed-up minor celeb and a male star’s little assistant think they can sweet-talk Mrs. Davis and crash this party? Call the manager now! Have security come up here and toss these two troublemakers out!"
One of Margaret’s entourage quickly chimed in, “Maggie, I already did. They should be here any minute.”
“Please... please, help me...” came a desperate plea.
Meanwhile, Mrs. Davis was busy dealing with the real homewrecker, Jane. Mrs. Davis's bodyguard had Jane kneeling by the couch, her face bloodied from Mrs. Davis's slaps, and was dragging her by the hair towards the door. Bruised and in pain, Jane clutched her stomach, crying out for help.
Margaret intervened, trying to deflect Mrs. Davis's anger towards Lizetta and Yolanda.
“Emily, they’ve bamboozled you. You heard them – one’s a climber, the other... what even is their relationship to us? How could I possibly lie to you? Jane’s got a boyfriend; that child is his. I know the guy, I can call him right now for a face-off. You’re misunderstanding this whole mess…”
As Margaret reached for her phone, Mrs. Davis slapped it away. Margaret froze as Mrs. Davis sneered, “You think I’m a fool? Get lost! I’m taking this little tramp to the clinic today.”
Had Mrs. Davis not seen the CCTV footage herself, she might have fallen for Margaret’s act once again.
Jane, realizing she was really being taken away, clung desperately to Margaret’s legs. At Mrs. Davis’s command, her bodyguard tried to pull Jane away, but she wouldn’t let go of Margaret.

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....
