Family on Their Knees Heart Turned to Ice novel Chapter 1613

After watching her grandmother safely board the plane and ensuring the medical staff had settled her in securely, Lillian finally stepped off the aircraft.

Leonard stood by her side as they watched the plane take off into the night sky.

"We'll head over tomorrow. It's only a day's difference, and there's a phone on the plane so we can contact them anytime. It hardly counts as being separated."

"Yeah, everything will be better."

Lillian had settled all company matters. Now, all that was left was to depart.

Back at the Mercer mansion, after sending the message, Brandon grew increasingly restless.

Ever since Lillian had unblocked his number, he had maintained a careful distance, terrified of bothering her and being thrown back onto the blacklist.

However, every time he texted or called previously, Lillian would always respond or pick up.

This time, his message seemed to have vanished into a black hole. There was zero response from Lillian's end.

Brandon couldn't fathom what Lillian was thinking. It was getting late, and he couldn't exactly storm into Halfridge Villas in the middle of the night to demand answers, could he?

If he did that, it would only prove to his sister that he lacked any sense of boundaries.

His heart raced with anxiety, but he had no choice but to endure it. The discomfort gnawed at him, yet his hands were tied.

He forced himself to wait until the next morning. Halfway through breakfast, Brandon slammed his silverware down.

"This won't work. I have to go to Halfridge Villas and see Lillian in person. Something this massive—we have to at least discuss it, right?"

Martin dropped his fork as well. "She doesn't even view herself as part of this family, and you think she'll discuss things with us? Hmph, you're flattering yourself.

If she wanted to discuss it, would you have had to hear the news from Sebastian?"

Colin chimed in, "That's true, but if Lillian really leaves and we lose contact with her, where are we supposed to find her?
