Family on Their Knees Heart Turned to Ice novel Chapter 449

"Well, I'm telling you, that's impossible.

Never mind that you have a terrible attitude for someone asking for a favor. Even if you came here begging on your knees today, I wouldn't let this go.

Emotionally, I am no longer part of the Mercer family.

And he was the one who kicked me out. You all framed me, hurt me, and tried to send me to prison. I'm not naive.

But the police have already cleared my name, and I was released.

And then Martin had the audacity to show up here and demand that I turn myself in.

Is he insane?

To please that homewrecker, he wanted me, an innocent person, to confess and go to jail, just so he and that shameless woman could be happy?

Who does he think he is? The emperor of the Mercer dynasty, who can do whatever he wants?

We're not living in the dark ages anymore, but he's still pulling this nonsense?

Does he think he's being romantic, sacrificing my freedom and well-being just to make his mistress smile?

Humph, it's pathetic!

This isn't the first time he's used his authority as a father to crush me.

I can't believe that even after disowning me, he still thinks he can use that title to control me.

And you two. You claim to be the brothers who loved me most, but in reality, you're worthless.

Your 'affection,' just like Martin's self-righteous 'love,' is like a pile of crap. It's disgusting and utterly worthless.

All it does is make me sick with your emotional blackmail."

Lillian had a bellyful of frustration, and facing these people, she had no desire to hold back. She unleashed a torrent of words.

But Lillian's behavior was completely out of control.

And if she wasn't controlled, it would result in a financial loss for them.

Brandon's shame turned to anger. "Lillian, are you insane? You're getting more and more out of line, saying whatever you want. No wonder Dad disowned you. With an attitude like that, are you even worthy of the Mercer family?"

Lillian retorted, "Worthy? And who do you think the Mercer family is? Do I need to be 'worthy' of you? Don't act so high and mighty. If you want to show off, do it somewhere else. I'm not part of your family anymore.

And as for Martin's situation, I will not negotiate. He must pay for the damages in full, down to the last penny.

I suggest that instead of wasting your energy arguing with me, you should hurry up and figure out how to raise the money to bail Martin out.

You know as well as I do that every extra minute he spends in there is another minute of risk for the Mercer Group.

And you're not willing to bear that risk, are you?"

With that, Lillian turned her gaze to Bella. "And you… Ms. Ward. Since you came along, did you forget to tell your two wonderful boyfriends that you're sitting on hundreds of millions of dollars in liquid assets?"
