Chapter 261 Collapsing Loyalties.

Sending Jonathan to Seaflats Cove for Lilian’s sake–now look what happened. They had infuriated Mr. Abraham, and Jonathan had come back in this state.

Susan’s face turned deathly pale. “T–I said everything I should’ve said to her about that incident! She’s the one who kept clinging to it! Was I supposed to just stand by and watch Lilian die?“

Susan was completely losing it..

Hearing her still speak with sympathy for Lilian, Patrick finally snapped. He raised his hand and slapped her across the face.

Smack-

The sharp sound echoed through the corridor. The air froze. Even Ethan instinctively turned to look at Susan and Patrick.

Susan stared at him, stummed, her pupils contracting. You… you hit me?”

Patrick’s face was cold. “Jonathan was the future of this family. You knew that. And yet you sacrificed both your daughter and your son for Lilin.

Susan stammered. T… but… Stella’s problems weren’t just my fault!”

Thinking about Stella, Susan’s mind went blank

Yes, she had been unable to stand Stella’s temper. Even if Stella was her biological daughter, she hadn’t treated her well.

But Patrick and Jonathan hadn’t treated her any better.

Was it really all her fault?

Patrick sneered. “I don’t care to argue anymore. Get out of my sight.

He didn’t want to see Susan again.

Jonathan he had raised him as his successor, his pride. And now, thanks to Susan’s blind favoritism for a foster daughter, he

was ruined

You-”

“Go. Isn’t Lilian the one you love so much? Go back and be her mother.”

Patrick’s voice was low and vicious, every word grinding through his teeth.

He was utterly, irreversibly disappointed.

He had warned Susan again and again: stay away from Stella. Don’t push her.

She hadn’t listened. And now even Jonathan had paid the price.

“I won’t leave!” Susan shouted. “My son is lying here!

Patrick laughed coldly. “From today on, he’s not your son anymore. You only have Lilian

He didn’t care anymore that Ethan was standing there.

The company had no future. The news had already spread: The Keene Group had collapsed internally after losing access to Mr. Abraham’s replacement mining resources.

The Keene family was finished.

you. Get out!”

“Clement. Patrick barked, “escort her out.”

He didn’t have time to waste fighting with Susan anymore.

Susan refused to leave, but Clement forcibly dragged her away.

Meanwhile, Patrick summoned the hospital director to find the best surgical team for Jonathan.

No matter what, he could not allow Jonathan’s hand to be ruined.

During the entire process. Patrick didn’t even glance at Ethan.

Jonathan and Ethan had gone together to Seaflats Cove–yet Jonathan came back crippled. Patrick couldn’t help but blame. Ethan too.

Today, the snow kept falling all day.

At Seaflats Cove, no one could leave.

Stella sat by the window, curled up on the sill, watching the snow fall outside. The world outside was freezing, but inside it was warm and cozy.

When Abraham entered, he saw her sparkling eyes, staring longingly at the snow,

Earlier that afternoon, she had begged to go out and play–but Abraham had refused. Eddie had warned that she had to take care not to catch a cold with her injuries.
