As Martin said this, he had forgotten that the "murderer" he was referring to was his own daughter.
He had also never once asked her if she had actually done it.
But for Lillian, none of that mattered anymore.
She had already given up on the Mercer family. In fact, cutting ties with them was the best thing that could have happened to her.
However, Martin's promise did stop Sabrina's tears.
"Honey, do you really mean it?"
"Of course. Would I lie to you about something like this? The baby you lost was my child too. How could I not be angry?"
Sabrina remained buried in Martin's embrace, her head nestled against his body, hiding the expression on her face.
Lillian had been an obstacle for her daughter for far too long, and Sabrina's patience had run out.
Now, while she was physically weak, seemingly helpless, and emotionally fragile, she had to crush Lillian completely.
Otherwise, there was no telling how much trouble she would cause in the future.
And that trouble would undoubtedly affect her own interests.
After lying in Martin's arms for a while, Sabrina looked up at him. "Honey, when is the lawyer you mentioned coming?"
She couldn't wait any longer, and Martin quickly made the call.
Before long, the lawyer arrived at the hospital.
In the hospital room, the lawyer began, "I'm sorry, Mr. Mercer. On my way here, I had someone look into it. It seems the police let her go because they have no evidence.
I also contacted the prosecutor's office, and they told me the same thing: insufficient evidence to press charges.
