Family on Their Knees Heart Turned to Ice novel Chapter 1506

A suffocating panic descended on the room. Bella didn't dare make another sound.

Sabrina wasn't stupid. When the gruesome video of Debbie Harris losing her hand had leaked online, she had felt a sickening knot of suspicion. She had confronted her daughter, and though Bella had offered a plausible excuse, a sliver of doubt had always remained.

Now, hearing the raw confession straight from Bella's mouth, all the pieces clicked into horrifying place.

Reacting on pure instinct, Sabrina lunged forward and clamped her own hand over Bella's, terrified someone might have heard. "My God, are you out of your mind? What are you saying?!" she hissed, her voice trembling violently despite her efforts to keep it down. She knew it was true, but she prayed it wasn't. The consequences would be apocalyptic.

Seeing her mother's sheer terror, Bella forced herself to breathe. She gently pulled Sabrina's hand away and, in a hushed, desperate tone, laid out the entire truth.

"It's real," Bella emphasized, her eyes pleading for understanding. "But Debbie was in on it. We planned it together. She agreed to it willingly."

Sabrina slumped back, gripping her forehead. A cold sweat broke out across her spine, soaking her clothes. She was utterly terrified.
