Lillian looked at Brandon. “And why not? If her offer is higher than yours, it’s perfectly reasonable for me to sell to her.
Mom gets the money, she gets the company shares. You’ve seen for yourself—Mom lost her mind a long time ago.
She doesn’t care about any of this.
Just like she was too far gone to care that the husband she loved ended up in Sabrina’s hands.
Or that her own two sons welcomed that woman into the Mercer mansion and treated her like their own mother.”
Finally, hearing those words, Brandon’s face flushed with shame. He had never realized how formidable his sister could be. Only now was he beginning to truly understand her.
His voice softened. “Lillian, Colin and I were wrong about what happened before. But we never intended to hurt Mom. She was already in that state… we couldn’t expect Dad to just stay by her side forever.
Dad is a normal man with normal emotional needs.
As his sons, we didn’t want to be unfilial.
Besides, Sabrina always acted so unassuming, like she didn’t want anything. The house is huge, so having two more people around wasn’t a big deal.
As long as Dad was happy, we were fine with it.
Lillian, Colin and I weren’t trying to betray Mom.
