Family on Their Knees Heart Turned to Ice novel Chapter 395

Sabrina, weeping, leaned against Martin. Her voice was soft and gentle. "Martin, I just can't let this go. I can't accept the pain of losing our baby.

But I never wanted Lillian to pay with her life. Just punishing her is enough.

Her mother went mad years ago, so she had no one to guide her. I don't blame her for being misguided, but she can't keep doing things like this.

If she isn't punished, I'm afraid she'll do something even more terrible in the future, commit a more serious crime. Then, not even the Mercer family would be able to clean up her mess."

"Don't worry, she's not one of us anymore. The disownment papers have been signed, and I've already had the media release the news. We've publicly severed ties with her.

From now on, whatever she does has nothing to do with our family.

Rest assured, even if she commits murder, it won't be our problem.

As soon as you're feeling a bit better, I will personally handle this matter. Committing a crime while on medical parole... this time, I'll make sure she gets a heavy sentence."

Bella sighed dramatically. "Dad, Mom, I can't convince you two. I'm done trying. Do whatever you think is best."

As she spoke, she shot a quick glance at Sabrina.

Sabrina started crying again. "Now the baby's gone. Just this morning, the baby was right here inside me. Martin, you even said you were going to give our baby shares in the company.

And now... the baby is gone."

Before Martin could respond, Bella cut in. "Mom, how can you be thinking about shares at a time like this?

A nearly invisible smile touched her face, but Sabrina just wiped away a tear and said, "Martin, look how good Bella is to you.

She had to borrow money to buy those shares. She heard Lillian was planning to sell her mother's stake and was afraid Lillian would foolishly sell them to an outsider, so she bought them herself, even if it meant going into debt.

Her intentions were so noble."

Bella said, "Mother, why are you telling Dad all this? As his daughter, isn't this what I'm supposed to do? I'm part of this family too, and it's my duty to do what I can to help the Mercer family succeed."

The comparison was stark. His own biological daughter was so thoughtless.

But this daughter was so considerate it made his heart ache.
