Family on Their Knees Heart Turned to Ice novel Chapter 841

“Mom, you really thought of everything. More than my own mother ever would have,” Bella Ward gushed.

Right now, Bella absolutely adored Debbie Harris. For a while, Debbie had been lost in Lucas's gentle embrace, completely ignoring the plans Bella and her mother had laid out. She hadn't even made an attempt to see Old Mr. Blake, which left Bella anxious and frustrated.

But now, Debbie was pulling out all the stops. It was the ultimate trump card.

Bella's excitement was palpable. She hadn't actually expected Debbie to agree so readily to handle the matter. Looking back, making the executive decision to bring Debbie to Northwyn was the smartest thing she had ever done.

After all, this was Sebastian Blake's biological mother. Her influence over the Blake family was undeniable. Bella felt foolish for ever doubting her capabilities.

With her worries alleviated, Bella showered Debbie in sweet words, promising that as the groom's mother, she would be treated like absolute royalty at the upcoming wedding.

Debbie, however, couldn't have cared less about the wedding. Her mind was already spinning with her own secret agenda. If her honey-trap worked, she could stay hidden in the shadows and extort a billion dollars directly from Old Mr. Blake. Why on earth would she hand that money over to Bella?

Use it as a billion-dollar wedding tribute for Bella? As if that girl deserved it.

She scoffed inwardly. She was going to take the billion dollars for herself and get the hell out of Northwyn. With that kind of cash, she could travel anywhere and find a brand new playground.

Debbie knew this was a one-time score. Once she pulled this off, she'd never be able to scam another dime out of Bella. But knowing the Blake family as she did, Bella wasn't going to have an easy life once she married Sebastian anyway. Bella probably wouldn't even have access to the family's real fortune. The millions Bella had already given her were likely the extent of the girl's personal nest egg.

The older Blake couple despised Bella. They wouldn't even allow her to step foot in the main estate.
