Family on Their Knees Heart Turned to Ice novel Chapter 145

Lately, Bella had noticed that Brandon was seeing Lillian frequently for some reason.

She'd never seen Brandon show so much concern for this sister before.

This made Bella realize that something must have happened when he accompanied Lillian back to Midvale.

She relayed her observations to Sabrina.

Sabrina snorted. "If it's about Midvale, then it's not hard to understand. The Lancaster family, after all, is one of the top families over there.

I know what kind of men he and his father are.

It's nothing more than them seeing the Lancaster family's wealth and prestige, and calculating that their crazy mother might be more valuable than me after all."

Bella scoffed. "What a joke. Eleanor Lancaster is practically a vegetable. How can she compare to you, Mom? Value? What kind of value? Lillian's grandparents are long dead, and their business was surely carved up by distant relatives years ago.

The Lancaster family may be prominent, but what does that have to do with that crazy woman Eleanor Lancaster now?

Besides, she's divorced from Mr. Mercer. This Mercer family will be all yours from now on. Although the Mercer business isn't what it used to be, the family has been wealthy for generations, and in the end, it all fell into your hands.

The Mercer family's future now depends on me. What does that crazy woman Eleanor Lancaster have to compete with you?

And both Brandon and Colin are on your side, Mom."

Sabrina just smiled, as if she completely agreed with her daughter's words.

Bella shook her head. "Sebastian tried to find out before, but he couldn't get anything.

But I've already made some arrangements. Don't worry, Mom. I'll get to the bottom of her company's situation very soon."

Sabrina said, "Yes, we need to know what she's up to so we can stay one step ahead. No matter what schemes she's cooking up, she'll ultimately be no match for my daughter. It's just a pity she was born with such good luck, that a man like Sebastian fell into her hands first.

Bella, I'm sorry you've had to suffer such an injustice.

But just be patient. Even though Sebastian was married to her and has a child, he's still a much better catch than any of those other men, isn't he?

And with a massive enterprise like the Blake Group, when you marry him, you'll be the CEO's wife. If you have a child, your child could inherit the Blake Group."
