Family on Their Knees Heart Turned to Ice novel Chapter 966

Martin suddenly changed his tune, asking eagerly, "Bella, you're divorcing Sebastian, and you can really get that much money?"

Bella looked completely self-assured, speaking with utter confidence. "Of course. The Blakes are the number one family in Northwyn. Sebastian has held a massive amount of shares since he first took over as CEO of the Blake Group. I know exactly how much money that company rakes in every year. If he wants to brush me off with thirty or fifty billion, I'll take it without complaint. But if he refuses, I have other leverage ready."

Martin's brain was swimming in dollar signs.

His expression instantly softened, as if the stolen million from his credit card was pocket change.

His tone became fawning. "Bella, have you thought about how you're going to manage all that settlement money? That's not a small sum. I really think you should allocate a portion for investments. That way, your money makes money, and you'll become even wealthier. Just a suggestion from your dad, of course."

Bella knew exactly what Martin was scheming. She had heard rumors about the Mercer Group desperately seeking outside investments. But they didn't have any viable projects left, making investors impossible to find. They had hit a dead end.

She offered a light smile. To diffuse the current tension, she tossed him a bone. "Investments are a must, of course. I could never spend all that money just sitting on it. And since our family's company happens to need capital, I'll definitely take it into consideration. After all, I am a part of this company too."

Martin was ecstatic. That was exactly what he wanted to hear.
