Colin let out a dry laugh. "Brandon's got a point. If Grandma miraculously woke up and saw the family tearing itself apart, us bullying Lillian, and Sabrina—the woman she despised most—living comfortably in the Mercer estate, she'd probably lose the will to live anyway."
Martin's face turned purple. "What is wrong with you two? Did you come here to visit me or to put me in an early grave?
"What a blessing it is to have sons like you. Can't you see how hard I've worked for this family?
"I guarded the Mercer Group for decades, only for you two to orchestrate a hostile takeover.
"Get out. I don't want to look at you. Go get Sabrina. I lose my appetite just staring at your faces."
Brandon stood up, unfazed. "Skipping one meal won't kill you.
"But Dad, can't you see she didn't want to deal with you either?
"Why do you think she called us and ran off the second we walked in?"
"She went to see Bella," Colin chimed in. "Is she sick too?"
Martin was practically vibrating with rage, but he forced the words out. "Go buy something and check on Bella.
"She's in the room right across the hall. She's prepping for surgery.
"Even if you despise her now, show some basic decency."
Brandon let out a cold chuckle. "Sick? Seriously? Karma is real. Her and her mother made sure Lillian couldn't even see a doctor while she was rotting in prison. Now she's the one in a hospital bed.
"What goes around comes around."
Colin looked thoughtful. "Lillian seems perfectly fine now, though. She's recovered, right?"
"If she dies," Martin sneered, "you two will be the ones inheriting her fortune."
Brandon's eyes flashed with anger. "Have you lost your mind? Do you hear the things coming out of your mouth? She's your biological daughter!
"If anyone hears you say that and something actually happens to her, they'll think you orchestrated it."
Martin yanked the blanket over his head, refusing to engage further.
He couldn't stand the sight of either of them.
