Instead of trying to test me and provoke me here, Ms. West, why don't you help me?" Stella was clearly taken aback by Lizetta's words, so much so that her stirring of her coffee halted abruptly.

"Use the power of the West family to get me out of Zion City. Remington refuses to divorce, and even going to court would be useless. I'll leave for two years, Ms. West, and during that time, you can cultivate a relationship with Remington.

After two years, when I file for divorce again, I'm sure Remington won't hold on anymore.
