Lizetta's face was a mask of panic, her voice shaky.
She cursed herself inwardly for wearing a pencil skirt under her coat today—a garment not exactly made for running.
In that moment, she realized just how instinctively she trusted and relied on Remington.
"Don't worry, I'm here."
Remington's deep voice resonated beside her.
In the next instant, his reassuring hand patted her shoulder before he was off like a shot towards the pool.
Lizetta felt a wave of calm wash over her, enough to steady her wobbly legs.
But just as Remington reached the pool's edge, there was another loud splash.
Cassius had jumped from the third floor right after him.
By the time Lizetta made it to the poolside, Cassius had already reached the bottom, pulling Yolanda to the surface.
Remington was in the water too, swimming swiftly towards them.
Seeing this, Lizetta felt a little more at ease and refrained from diving in herself.
"How is she?"
Remington swam over, asking.
"She's okay."
Cassius looked slightly pale but seemed otherwise alright, showing no signs of exhaustion or injury.
However, Yolanda, whom he was holding, was clearly unconscious.
Yolanda's robe had come undone, and seeing that Cassius was managing, Remington turned back towards the pool's edge.
Lizetta was already there, anxiously waiting, her coat ready in hand.
As soon as Cassius brought Yolanda to the side, Lizetta quickly wrapped her in the coat, cradling her and checking her over.
"Yoli? Yoli!"

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....
