Family on Their Knees Heart Turned to Ice novel Chapter 1026

"But Lillian, we don't currently have any proof that Bella was involved.

The recording only has Sabrina's voice. You see, it makes things complicated..."

Brandon trailed off, glancing at Lillian to gauge her reaction.

Lillian merely stared at him, genuinely curious to see just how shameless the Mercer men could be.

Sabrina's covert attacks were hateful, of course.

But were all the Mercer men dead?

They claimed to have pulled strings for her, yet their plan was apparently to throw money at the problem and completely abandon her afterward.

Sabrina had sabotaged her from the shadows, and it took them years to finally 'investigate' it.

It was laughable.

Seeing Lillian remain silent, Brandon grew uneasy. After a moment of hesitation, he gritted his teeth and said, "Actually, it's not impossible. It's just that Bella is managing a crucial project, and you know the company's situation.

Of course, if you're willing to come back, Bella wouldn't have the qualifications to stay at the Mercer Group.

Under those circumstances, Colin and I would naturally kick her out.

As long as you merge Lillionix into the Mercer Group, we..."

Before Brandon could finish, Ethan slammed his hand on the table and stood up.

He had been eagerly waiting for the drama, and this was absolute gold.

He hadn't even taken a bite, and these guys were already tossing their delusional demands right in their faces.

Unbelievable. The sheer audacity!

"Brandon, I don't think I've ever met a more scheming opportunist in my life.

We're having a family discussion. Since when do you get to interrupt?

We are a family. Blood is thicker than water.

The Mercer Group is Grandmother's life's work. Lillian cares about Grandmother more than anyone. Do you really think she'd stand by and watch the company collapse?"

Ethan scoffed, utterly furious. "So what if it's the old lady's life's work? If it weren't out of respect for her, our boss would have already stepped in and personally bankrupt this pathetic excuse for a company run by scum like you.

Do you think you'd even be sitting here spouting this shameless garbage?"

This time, Ethan's words made Brandon snap his mouth shut.

The brothers exchanged a horrified look. What did they just hear?

If not for Grandmother, Lillian would have already bankrupted them?

Their hearts trembled violently, but they quickly forced themselves to remain calm.
