Family on Their Knees Heart Turned to Ice novel Chapter 649

Martin had come seeking help from Old Mr. Blake, but he never expected him to use Lillian and Sebastian’s divorce, as well as his disownment of Lillian, as leverage.

Wasn’t this a clear attempt to draw a line in the sand?

But could that line be drawn so easily?

“Mr. Blake, what you’re saying isn’t right. I don’t agree.

Lillian is an ungrateful child, and I had every reason to disown her. She brought this exile on herself.

She’s selfish and unwilling to contribute to the family. She constantly causes trouble. A daughter like that, I’d rather pretend I never had.

It’s true she and Sebastian are divorced, but my other daughter is about to marry him, isn’t she?

From now on, we’ll still be one family, still in-laws.

And as for Noah, although that rebellious daughter gave birth to him, he’s still Sebastian’s son.

Sebastian still calls me his father-in-law, so naturally, Noah is still my grandson.

This connection will always exist; it can never be changed.

The Mercer family and the Blake family, it’s a destined connection.”

As Martin spoke, Old Mr. Blake’s expression had already turned grim.

“Is that so? A destined connection? I, for one, don’t see where this destiny lies!

From start to finish, we have only ever acknowledged Lillian as our daughter-in-law. Unfortunately, they divorced.

We would have accepted it if Sebastian had married an heiress from another prominent family, but that’s not the case.

Is that Bella really your daughter? Her background is all over the internet now. Surely you understand, Martin.

She is merely the child from your affair that you brought into your home. A disgraceful relationship like that is your family’s business, so we won’t meddle as long as it stays within your household.
