Family on Their Knees Heart Turned to Ice novel Chapter 431

Martin's words shocked both the lawyer and Sabrina.

A voluntary confession?

The lawyer nodded. "Of course. If Ms. Mercer confesses voluntarily, there won't be any problem. We wouldn't even need other witnesses to convict her. It's just..."

The lawyer hesitated. "That doesn't seem very likely, does it? Why would Ms. Mercer voluntarily confess? It's human nature to avoid taking responsibility. Who would just admit their guilt?"

Sabrina echoed his sentiment. "Exactly, why would she confess?"

Martin said, "That's where I come in. Honey, don't worry. I'll make sure you get your justice. A voluntary confession? I will make her confess and walk into that prison herself. Would that make you feel better?"

Sabrina offered a faint smile but didn't answer.

Seeing that small hint of a smile, Martin felt a wave of relief. All that mattered was her happiness.

With that in mind, Martin began to strategize how to make Lillian confess.

Thinking it over, he realized he never should have let Lillian take her mother and grandmother. If he had them now, he could use them as leverage, and Lillian would have given in without a second thought. She would have walked right into prison herself.

Damn it. He never saw this coming.

Of course, he never imagined his own daughter could be so ruthless.

As Martin left the hospital, he remembered something.

Besides her mother and grandmother, Lillian should at least care about her own life, right?

She was already sick and dying. What would happen to her mother and grandmother after she was gone?

So, Martin drove directly to Lillian's company.

He didn't want to waste a single second. He knew Lillian was at work, so he went straight there.

The secretary said, "Alright, Ms. Mercer. It's almost closing time. Would you like me to help you avoid him?"

The secretary had already stopped calling Martin her father, referring to him as just 'him.'

There wasn't much gossip inside the company, but there was plenty outside of it.

Lillian replied, "No need. Could the Mercers' piece-of-junk car even keep up with Mr. Hayes's Rolls-Royce?"

With that, she turned her attention back to her computer, which displayed a list of important guests.

Her company's project had reached maturity. After operating quietly and avoiding public scrutiny for so long, it was finally time to hold a press conference.

Her health was improving, and the conference was in the planning stages. Everything was looking up.

She planned to invite the top figures in the industry, as well as the most important friends and family in her life, to witness this moment with her.
