Family on Their Knees Heart Turned to Ice novel Chapter 1420

Bella received the funds Sabrina had borrowed, which was just enough to cover her exorbitant interest payments.

However, Sabrina still offered a grim warning. "Remember, you need to find a way to secure a massive amount of money, and fast.

The money from The Society of Sisters was scraped together by robbing Peter to pay Paul. You have to pay them back as soon as possible.

You know how hard those women had to fight to get where they are today. If anything happens to this money, their futures will be ruined.

They're getting older, their market value is gone, and they don't have the energy to hustle anymore.

This cash is their absolute lifeblood."

Bella replied dismissively, "I know. I'll pay them back soon."

Bella wasn't panicked in the slightest. She knew an opportunity to strike at Debbie would present itself eventually. As long as she could get into that room and split the cash, she would effortlessly claw her way out of this desperate situation.

First, she would solve her cash flow problem. Then, she would pour everything she had into dragging out the divorce battle with Sebastian. She had long abandoned the delusion of a peaceful split.

Meanwhile, in The Prestige Wing of the hospital.

Lucas had slipped into Debbie's room yet again.

"Debbie, Bella came looking for me today."

Debbie sharply noticed that Lucas was no longer calling her rival by affectionate nicknames like "Bella" or "Ms. Ward," but coldly referring to her by her full name.

Ah, he had completely switched his tune.

Debbie smiled faintly. "It seems you haven't betrayed the $400 million Lucas-Debbie bribe."

She certainly didn't harbor the delusion that Lucas was somehow loyal to her as a person.

Men like Lucas didn't possess noble qualities like loyalty. The only thing he would never betray was cold, hard cash.

A man who drifted among wealthy women, trading his dignity for a paycheck, had no conceptual grasp of genuine devotion.

It was a trait completely absent from his DNA.

At the mention of Bella, Debbie's brow furrowed in deep disgust.

Was that woman a divine punishment sent to curse her son?

Otherwise, how could it be such a miserable coincidence that Sebastian ended up with her?

Now, Debbie couldn't help but wonder: was Sebastian divorcing Bella strictly because she humiliated him at the wedding, or had he discovered her psychotic, twisted true nature?

Whatever the reason, it had nothing to do with her. She had absolutely zero desire to be Bella's mother-in-law anyway.

Honestly, she didn't even want to be Sebastian's mother.

Over the past few days, a parade of doctors—including top specialists from overseas—had shuffled in and out of her room, slowly forcing her to accept the grim reality: she genuinely had cancer.

It wasn't a fake diagnosis cooked up by Sebastian to torment her; it was the indisputable truth.

Most of the time, she couldn't understand a word the foreign doctors were saying, but that didn't stop her from picking up crucial keywords from the translators.
