Family on Their Knees Heart Turned to Ice novel Chapter 1551

Martin sighed. "But this is different. If Bella could just hold on to... well, never mind. Let's drop it. Bella is still recovering, talking about this will only upset her."

Bella narrowed her eyes slightly. She had absolutely no desire to listen to Martin's lectures, nor did she want to discuss Sebastian.

Seeing this, Sabrina immediately shut the conversation down. "Alright, enough about him. You know Bella needs to focus on her health. This is only her second day post-op. Let her rest and heal. Come on, I'll walk you back to your room."

It really wasn't appropriate for Martin to linger in Bella's room anyway. It was inconvenient, and it was heavily disrupting her rest.

Meanwhile, Lillian had been thoroughly enjoying the endless supply of internet drama.

Although her name was frequently lumped in with Sebastian and Bella, the netizens overwhelmingly adored her.

The comments referencing her were entirely positive, packed with compliments and praise—a stark contrast to the vitriol hurled at Sebastian and Bella.

After clocking out, it was Lillian's designated drama-watching time.

Martha had been in phenomenal spirits the past few days. She perfectly timed her entrance to present Lillian with a fresh plate of watermelon.

"Ms. Mercer, the melon is fantastic today. It's incredibly sweet and juicy."

Lillian smiled. "Martha, are you glowing because of this melon, or because of the online drama you've been eating up?"

Martha beamed, her joy unmistakable.

"Ms. Mercer, you have no idea. I've been on cloud nine lately. Honestly, ever since I moved here to work for you, I've woken up in a great mood every single day."

Not having to walk on eggshells around Sabrina at the old Mercer mansion made everyday life an absolute delight.

For two years, Martha had felt like she was spiraling into depression.
