Family on Their Knees Heart Turned to Ice novel Chapter 1184

Right on cue, Martin crumbled completely under her words.

He stepped forward and pulled Sabrina into a tight embrace.

Then came the dramatic declarations. "Sabrina, I always knew you had me in your heart. I knew you'd consider my feelings.

I was wrong to ever doubt you.

I know that when it really matters, you always make the right choice. Not only do you support me, but you understand me better than anyone.

Thank you, Sabrina."

Brandon scrunched his face in disgust, looking like he'd swallowed a lemon.

Wow. Look at them, the ultimate tragic lovers. It was truly nauseating how they immediately spun this into a testament of their grand romance.

It was sickening.

Colin rolled his eyes so hard it hurt and stormed upstairs without a word.

There was nothing left to say; he just wanted them out of his sight.

The main hurdle was cleared. She had agreed. Now they just needed to focus on the next steps.

Watching Sabrina's masterclass in manipulation made Brandon hate the idea of romance and marriage even more.

Seeing his own father fall for such sickening tactics had inflicted massive psychological damage on him.

Someday, he would take over as Chairman of the Mercer Group, and he swore to never let a toxic woman drag him down like this. Just the thought of it made his skin crawl.

Any man foolish enough to tangle with a woman like Sabrina was doomed, yet Martin, the biggest fool on earth, thought he had won the lottery.

If only his grandmother had lived longer, none of this would have happened.

Sabrina gently pushed Martin away, feigning shyness. "The kids are watching."

If she threw a tantrum now, it would only create a massive wedge between her and Martin.

Just days ago, he had demanded her shares. If she kept pushing his boundaries, she would only burn through his patience.

Once this man lost his patience with her, she would have absolutely nothing.

Realizing she was out of options, Sabrina decided to ride the wave. At least when she was forced to grovel and suffer this humiliation, Martin would be right there beside her.

She wouldn't be the only one humiliated.

Downstairs, Brandon glanced at Bella. "Your mom is incredibly pragmatic. You should really take some notes, Bella.

If you learn a few tricks from her, maybe you'll actually be able to keep Sebastian in line."

Bella's face darkened furiously. Why did he have to drag Sebastian into this?

What did Brandon know about her and Sebastian anyway?
