Family on Their Knees Heart Turned to Ice novel Chapter 466

Lillian gave a faint smile. “You’re right. You can poach almost anyone if you offer them enough money.

But between my personal feelings and seeing what Ms. Bennett is capable of, I’d rather give her a helping hand.

Someone with her talent shouldn’t be held back by things like this.”

At the end of the day, Lillian valued talent.

She understood how important this opportunity was for Celia Bennett.

She also knew that by helping her now, she would be gaining a valuable ally for the future.

She needed partners like that, people she could rely on so she would have less to worry about.

Besides, Celia Bennett’s situation resonated with her. It was as if Celia was another version of herself, enduring a kind of suffering she didn’t deserve.

It wasn’t that Lillian had a savior complex; she had just been through something similar and knew exactly how painful it was.

She had met Leonard, and now she wanted to pass that warmth on, to give Celia Bennett the same kind of break.

Emma didn’t ask any more questions. She understood what Lillian meant.

When they got back to the office, they found a large crowd gathered outside.

Before they could figure out what was happening, they walked straight into the throng and were immediately surrounded by the media.

“Look, it’s Lillian!” someone shouted.

Instantly, all eyes turned to them, and the crowd swarmed, trapping Lillian and Emma.

Some shoved phones right in Lillian’s face, filming her, while others thrust recorders at her mouth.

A barrage of questions followed. “Ms. Mercer, is it true that your company hired top-tier experts but is now on the verge of bankruptcy without having produced a single product?”

“Ms. Mercer, how did you push your stepmother down the stairs and cause her to have a miscarriage?”
