Seeing Merrick remain unmoved, she could only approach Lilian, pleading, “Please forgive me. I’m a terrible person, I have a cruel heart, and I shouldn’t have sold Anne for my selfish desire, and I certainly shouldn’t have tried to eliminate future trouble by trying to harm you. I beg you, if you just stop them from driving me out of the Philips family, I’ll do anything. Please, plead my case to Dad, alright? I truly know I was wrong.”
Lilian looked at Madison with cold eyes.
“You don’t need to beg me for forgiveness. If you truly seek forgiveness, find my mother after you die and ask her to forgive you. And I believe my mother also begged you then, pleading with you to save her and not sell her. But didn’t you remain unmoved and sell her anyway? So, don’t blame me for being cold, because this is your retribution.”
“Retribution! Ha ha ha ha, retribution!” Madison spoke frenziedly
“Yes, this is my retribution. I’ve committed many evil deeds in this life, scheming against everyone around me for my selfish desire, and now I’ve lost everything. Dad has abandoned me, Oliver has abandoned me, and even my own daughter has abandoned me. I did so many bad things for Jackson, and he abandoned me and even betrayed me. What else can this be but retribution? It’s my fault. If I hadn’t been so greedy, if jealousy hadn’t consumed me, I wouldn’t have been used by Jackson, becoming his tool. Actually, I regretted handing Anne over to those people, but I had no choice. As long as she existed for one day, I could never securely hold the position of the Philips family’s Miss. I couldn’t gain the affection of Mom, Dad, and everyone else. So, ultimately, I watched those people take her away.”
“So, there truly is karmic retribution in this world. It’s not that there is no consequence; it’s just that the time hasn’t come yet.” She then walked away, speaking in a daze, “Retribution, retribution, this is all my retribution.”
Merrick watched Madison walk out, shaking his head helplessly.
He had loved that daughter and watched her grow up; it was impossible not to feel heartbroken. But when he thought of Anne being sold, and all the terrible things Madison had done, he simply couldn’t find forgiveness for her.
Houis and Linette exchanged glances, then sighed weakly.
The crowd in the audience also murmured with sorrow. They never expected the once prestigious Ms. Philips to meet such a downfall.
Merrick then looked at Jackson.
“As for you, I will have someone escort you back to Murica. The law there awaits your sentencing. It is my responsibility as a father that you turned out this way. Since I failed to raise you properly, then let others take charge of your discipline.”
Jackson shook his head frantically. “No, Dad, you can’t do this to me! I’m your biological son! You can’t send me to prison! If you do this, Mom will know in the afterlife, and she will definitely blame you!”
Merrick said calmly, “It doesn’t matter. If she truly blames me, I will explain it to her when I join her. As
