Family on Their Knees Heart Turned to Ice novel Chapter 220

When Colin got home, he walked in just in time to see Martin joyfully spinning Sabrina around in his arms, his laughter echoing through the villa.

Colin froze mid-step, his left foot still in the air.

Was it really true? Was she pregnant?

Was the old man really going to have the child he'd been hoping for in his old age?

Colin thought to himself that Brandon's intuition had been spot on.

As he stepped inside, Martin was holding Sabrina and planting several firm kisses on her cheek.

"Oh, honey, we have company," Sabrina said. "Be careful. Careful of the baby in my belly."

The words "baby in my belly" made Colin freeze on the spot. His hand trembled, and he knocked over an antique vase from a nearby stand. It fell to the floor and shattered into pieces with a loud crash.

At that moment, Martin and Sabrina finally turned around.

Martin was so ecstatic that he had temporarily forgotten he was in the middle of a cold war with his two sons.

He turned to share the good news with Colin. "Colin, you're about to have another little brother or sister. Are you happy?"

Colin was speechless.

Sabrina, however, remembered that the father and sons had been arguing about this very issue. Seeing Colin now, she looked a bit awkward.

"Colin, you're back?" she said, her voice tinged with unease.

"You're... pregnant?" Colin asked.

"What do you mean, *we're* pregnant?" Martin corrected him. "Sabrina and I are having a baby. Colin, do you want a little brother or a little sister?"

"The Mercer family is about to be thrown into chaos. They're going to have a baby at their age? The family assets were already clearly divided. This is going to be a mess."

Brandon decided he had to borrow the money from Sebastian immediately and buy the shares their mother owned from Lillian.

During the divorce, their mother had received a fair amount of shares. With those, plus his and Colin's support, Brandon would become the largest shareholder in the company.

If any major changes were to happen, he would still be in control.

In the current situation, he no longer trusted his father to run the company.

Before, the three siblings, no matter what, were born of the same mother. At critical moments, they were united.

Now, even though this child hadn't been born yet, he could already imagine his father pouring a vast amount of energy and money into it.

When Brandon called Sebastian again, he agreed to transfer the money right away.
