Shattered Illusions: Love, Lies, and Redemption

Chapter 316

“Looks like you’ve fallen hard for Remington, huh? A few sweet nothings from him and you’re all over yourself. Pathetic, really!”

Lizetta figured Yolanda was disappointed. After all, Yolanda had been running around, helping her deal with her divorce. And now, Lizetta had suddenly changed her mind.

Feeling guilty and flustered, Lizetta was about to apologize when Yolanda suddenly hugged her, laughing.

“No matter what you decide, girl, I’ve got your back! Besides, with Joy in the picture, who wouldn’t want to be the glamorous wife of a wealthy family, and later, the elegant matriarch? It’d be dumb to pass that up! You’re not the only one who’s head over heels for Remington, Girls willing to chase him could line up around Zion City twice! How can you call that pathetic? You’re brave for chasing love, Liz. Go get him, and I wish you all the happiness!”

Feeling a warmth in her heart, Lizetta hugged Yolanda back.

“Yoli, thank you. You have no idea how relieved I was to find out he wasn’t with Evelina. If he’s got no one else in his heart, why can’t that person be me? I mean, I’ve always been close to him, like a sister. Now, as his lover and wife, I can definitely make a place for myself in his heart! After all, I’m pretty cute and have a great personality, right?”

“Absolutely, you’re a total catch! Go on, win him over completely!” Yolanda cheered for Lizetta.

Lizetta blushed slightly, her lips curving into a shy smile.

Just then, her phone rang. Seeing the caller ID, her smile widened.

She glanced at Yolanda, who waved her hand dismissively.
