Family on Their Knees Heart Turned to Ice novel Chapter 83

Sebastian had been publicly humiliated in front of so many people.

In an instant, the news spread throughout the entire company.

Soon, even the employees at Litech NaLabs had heard about it.

When Nathan found out, he laughed so hard in his office that he sprayed coffee all over his computer screen.

He immediately called Lillian to share the good news.

Lillian asked, “Are you two partners or enemies?”

Nathan retorted, “Is it my fault? He disrespected me first. Besides, what right does he have to always act so high and mighty and bully you like that? He deserved what happened today.”

Lillian said, “I have to go, I’m busy.”

She hung up and turned her attention back to her computer.

Upstairs in the study, Leonard gazed out the window at the back garden. Eleanor was playing with the carefree joy of a child, while Lillian’s fingers flew across her keyboard. Time in Halfridge Villas was so beautifully serene it felt wrong to disturb it.

Ethan knocked and entered, his face beaming. “Sir, good news. The lawyers from the Blake Group just delivered Sebastian and Lillian’s divorce certificate. It’s hot off the press. Take a look.”

Leonard took the certificate, his lips pressed tightly together, yet the corners of his mouth still curved upwards.

Ethan added, “Sebastian himself doesn’t know yet.”

Leonard handed the certificate back to Ethan. “No rush,” he said, then praised him. “You did a good job with this. You’ll get a double year-end bonus.”

Ethan asked, “Sir, should I inform Ms. Mercer about this now?”

Leonard walked a few steps closer to the window, his gaze still fixed on Lillian below.

After a moment of thought, he said in a low voice, “Not for now. Finalize the company registration and eliminate any potential risks for her.”

“Yes, sir.”

Lillian was engrossed in her work, unaware that behind her, Leonard was clearing the path for her future.

Ethan had everything prepared. He was just waiting for the Blake Group’s lawyers to resolve the marital issues between Lillian and Sebastian before moving on to the next step.

Now, that obstacle was gone.

Ethan quickly registered the company, and Lillian officially became an entrepreneur.

In this highly competitive industry, new startups emerged daily, as common as dirt.

Established players kept a close watch, swallowing up those with potential and ignoring the rest.

The name Lillian was completely unknown in this field, with no track record to speak of. She should have been utterly overlooked.
