The real drama at the Mercer family residence began after business hours.
Brandon had specifically set an alarm, skipping overtime at the office to rush straight to Sabrina's hospital room with a live-streaming team.
Sabrina knew this was unavoidable, but she still looked teary-eyed and distraught.
She didn't want to do another live-streamed apology, but she had no other choice.
The VIP room was spacious, but it still felt crowded after the broadcast crew filed in.
Bella had also rushed over right after work. She was still trying to stop this farcical public apology, but even Sabrina tried to reason with her.
"Bella, I've already promised your father. This apology is no longer just about us; it's about the company."
Upon hearing this, Bella's gaze shifted directly to Brandon.
He was the one who had started all this. If he hadn't acted without consulting anyone, the situation wouldn't have become so irreversible.
In front of all the Mercers, Bella knew she couldn't say much more.
Once the live stream was ready to go, Bella could only stand aside and wait.
Martin had argued with Brandon for a long time, finally deciding that the broadcast had to be limited to thirty minutes.
At eight o'clock, the live stream began on schedule.
On camera, Sabrina still had an IV drip in her hand and was wearing a hospital gown. Much of the hospital room was visible in the background.
Bella bit her lip, forcing back her anger as she stood to the side, but the look she gave Brandon was anything but friendly.
Sabrina hadn't had much time to memorize a script, so the words of her apology were mostly just phrases she remembered from yesterday's draft.
"I'm sorry. I know that what I've done makes it difficult for Lillian to forgive me.
The psychological trauma I've caused her is a sin that I can never fully atone for, even in death.
