Family on Their Knees Heart Turned to Ice novel Chapter 1060

So, in the eyes of his own family, he was inferior to Leonard Prescott in every conceivable way.

But Sebastian's background check on Leonard went deeper than a mere photograph. The dossier in his hands explicitly noted that Leonard suffered from fragile health.

How could a man with such a sickly constitution, regardless of how terrifyingly powerful his background was, truly give Lillian a happy, fulfilling life?

Sebastian convinced himself that, when stacked up against Leonard, he was still very much a formidable contender.

In fact, he firmly believed he had the upper hand and the higher chance of winning.

Parked outside the gates of Halfridge Villas, Sebastian stayed awake the entire night. Lillian had to leave the estate eventually in the morning. As long as he intercepted her, he would have the chance to speak his piece.

Before, he had been caught off guard and handled the situation poorly because he hadn't known the full truth.

Now, he was fully prepared.

Besides, Lillian and Leonard were just dating. They hadn't even gone public with their relationship.

What did that mean?

It meant their relationship was built on a foundation of massive hidden risks.

Lillian was a divorced woman, while Leonard was not only two years younger than her but hailed from a family whose status eclipsed the rest of the world.

Could two people with such a massive divide truly make it down the aisle?

The Prescott family held terrifying power overseas. Would a family of that magnitude ever accept a divorced woman like Lillian into their ranks?

There were countless pure, elite heiresses practically lining up at the Prescott family's door. Why on earth would they ever settle for Lillian?

It was a complete joke!

What right did she have?

Because she was older? Because she had the experience of a failed marriage? Or because she had given birth before?

Sometimes, claiming one's rightful status required taking matters into one's own hands.

Since SweetSeeker had done such an incredible job uncovering the clues with her magnifying glass, how could Leonard let the internet down?

After buying the initial traffic to boost the post, Leonard stepped back and handed the reins to the netizens. He had full faith in their collective detective work.

Just as he predicted, once SweetSeeker's post exploded on the trending charts, the narrative shifted entirely.

The bespoke clothing prices that SweetSeeker hadn't been able to identify were quickly quoted and reposted by industry insiders.

High-level fashion experts provided a crystal-clear breakdown for the public: this wasn't just luxury custom tailoring. It came with an incredibly strict social barrier to entry.

These pieces were exclusive to aristocratic, old-money dynasties that had immigrated overseas decades ago. One could only acquire the right to purchase them after passing a rigorous background assessment.

Furthermore, the mysterious Golden 'P' Monogram on the cufflinks—the one that required maximum zoom to even spot—was finally identified and exposed by seasoned netizens.
