Family on Their Knees Heart Turned to Ice novel Chapter 1076

Before Sabrina could finish her theatrical performance, her wails still echoing off the living room walls, Brandon cut her off sharply.

"Ms. Ward, you're crying about the wrong lifetime. This isn't about your past life; it's about the sins you committed in this one.

"You exploited the connections Dad and I set up to care for Lillian, inserting yourself to do something utterly disgusting.

"You know perfectly well that because of your actions, Lillian is now suffering from a disease. A terminal illness.

"Did you really think you could commit such an evil act and not pay a price?

"All we are asking is for you to hand over things that never belonged to you in the first place. Is that really such an outrageous demand?

"Why are you the one crying?

"If the abuser is in tears, how exactly is the victim, Lillian, supposed to cry to make it fair?"

With her wailing abruptly shut down, Brandon’s words grew increasingly harsh and unforgiving.

Bella naturally couldn't stand the grating accusations. After all, her mother wasn't the only one involved in that scheme years ago.

Now her mother was standing on the front lines taking the blame, but Brandon’s words were lethal blows aimed at her, too.

Bella’s face turned icy. "Brandon, Colin, don't push it. Mom is right—she devoted more than half her life to Dad.

"She married into this family, which makes her a part of it. What she received is rightfully hers.

"Don't forget, it was in this very house that she lost her and Dad's baby.

"If that child had survived, they would have been born by now.

"We are a real family!

"If you demand shares, I'm willing to agree to hand over the portion currently in Mom's name.

"But demanding all of them? That is never going to happen!"

All of them? Hah, they were dreaming.
