Shattered Illusions: Love, Lies, and Redemption

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 room was in chaos when the manager and security finally barged in.

Margaret wasted no time, "Matthew, don't you see what's happening? Kick them out, now! Or you can kiss your job goodbye!"

She pointed at Lizetta, Yolanda, and also Mrs. Davis and her bodyguard. Matthew was confused, afraid of stepping on toes, when Margaret's lackeys added their two cents.

"What are you waiting for? That's Ms. West, Ms. Miller, and Ms. Shirley Dashiell!"

"Isn't the club owned by Mr. Temple? I've heard he's tight with Mr. Dashiell and Mr Sterling. Didn't you know Ms. West is soon to be Mrs. Dashiell and Ms. Miller is linking up with Mr. Sterling?"

"How can you afford to offend your boss's future sisters-in-law?"

"They're not even members here; they snuck in. What's there to hesitate about?"

The manager, feeling the pressure

and now believing Lizetta and Yolanda had crashed the party,

signaled security to move in.

Margaret and her crew Set

awaited the disgraceful expulsion of Lizetta and Yolanda, already plotting totip off the media for a juicy scandal.

But Lizetta and Yolanda weren't fazed in the slightest. How could Lizetta have crashed the party? was there legitimately, usingThis belongs to NôvelDrama.Org: ©.

and her bodyguards were mistaken by Margaret's group as Mrs. Davis's escorts.

As security approached Lizetta and Yolanda, ready to step in, a chilling voice cut through the tension.

"Who dares touch her."
