Family on Their Knees Heart Turned to Ice novel Chapter 932

"Pull it off? Why not?"

Colin couldn't believe it.

"It's no big deal. Even without Dad involved, we can still use his name to get things done."

Brandon replied, "That's not the point. The point is that Lillian isn't taking the bait. Getting our hands on the Li Algorithm shares is going to be incredibly difficult. We don't have a leg to stand on here, so we have to ensure this doesn't leak out. If we can settle this secretly and secure the shares from her, we can announce it to the public later and restore the Mercer Group's reputation. Not only will investors regain their confidence, but the outside world will assume we've mended our relationship with her."

"No way, Brandon. You're living in a fantasy. She has completely given up on this family. She's explicitly stated to the media multiple times that she's cut all ties with us and wants absolutely nothing to do with the Mercers. Even if we try to force an association, it'll be nearly impossible. She wouldn't just sit back and let it happen, let alone cooperate. The only way it works is if she genuinely wants to reconcile with us. By the way, do you think there's any chance of that happening?"

Brandon let out a cold laugh. "Reconcile? Easier said than done. She looks at us like we're her mortal enemies. She's never going to agree to patch things up. Unless..."

Colin perked up immediately at the word. "Unless what? There's still a chance? Even if it's a tiny glimmer of hope, we have to fight for it. She's always responded better to a soft touch than a hard push, and we've been nothing but confrontational with her lately. Maybe if we find the right moment to apologize and make amends, we can go back to being a family. Now that Bella has ruined her reputation, Dad and the rest of the family will probably abandon her. Wouldn't this be the perfect time to welcome Lillian back home?"

Brandon shook his head. "The odds of that are incredibly slim.

When I said 'unless,' I meant unless Grandmother wakes up.

If she's awake, she might be able to turn the tide and give us a new opening.

Grandmother practically raised Lillian, and whatever she says goes.

So, if Grandmother wakes up, a single word from her holds more weight than ten thousand of ours.
