Family on Their Knees Heart Turned to Ice novel Chapter 573

Lillian smiled. "I'm not that concerned with how the Mercer Group is doing. Why this arrangement? Was this your boss's idea?"

"You know him too well, Ms. Mercer. He asked about the situation at home last night and found out your two brothers came by. They even waited outside all night.

It's a good thing you were out of town, otherwise who knows how they would have pestered you.

He was very angry when he found out, so he decided to add a little more fuel to the fire."

Lillian paused. "Didn't he promise to leave the final, fatal blow to me?"

"Don't worry, Ms. Mercer. My boss knows what he's doing. He won't crush the Mercer family all at once.

Those people bullied you so much in the past. They don't deserve an easy way out."

Lillian nodded with satisfaction. "Your boss certainly knows how to please me. Tell Emma she doesn't need to schedule any work for me this morning. I have my own plans."

"It's already been taken care of, Ms. Mercer," Ethan replied.

Once Lillian was in her office, no one disturbed her.

The company was quite busy lately, with many things requiring Lillian's attention.

However, Emma had made arrangements beforehand, diverting everything to Victor.

Victor had become very responsible and dedicated. He took on all his duties without complaint, handling everything seriously.

This allowed Lillian to sit peacefully in her office, turn on her computer, and wait to see what would happen with the Mercer Group.

The Mercer family was on edge. Fearing another siege by reporters, the three of them—father and sons—had arrived at the company before six in the morning.

Now, they were all waiting in Brandon's office, anxious to see the outcome.

The situation didn't look good.

"As soon as the market opens, let's pull out all the money we borrowed to invest. We can't afford to gamble anymore. We'll take a smaller profit, but at least we won't lose."

Brandon rushed to the computer, clicking the mouse a few times to confirm the news.

At that moment, six eyes stared at the screen, and then the three men looked at each other in disbelief.

Martin slammed his fist on the desk, smashed his phone, and roared, his face flushed with sheer rage. "Why?"

Brandon was also seething with anger, but with his father already in a rage, he had no outlet for his own fury, which left him feeling suffocated.

Colin was still in shock. "How could this happen? It's impossible, absolutely impossible. How could it be suspended?"

Brandon had started to process the situation. He turned to Martin. "What did I tell you? What did I say? Over the weekend, I told you to have Sabrina apologize, didn't I? Didn't I say that since this happened, we had to protect the company's interests first?

"Now look! Dad, you see this? This is the result of you telling us to wait. This is what we waited for.

Are you happy now? Satisfied?

Wait. Just keep waiting. How do you like this outcome?"
