Chapter 914 Let Jacob Redeem the Person
Lola was sobbing uncontrollably. "I swear, I had no clue they were my real parents. I had no idea what they were secretly up to in the Medici family all these years. I messed up, I admit it. When Abella came back, I got scared and jealous. I did awful things. Mom, I can't even ask for your forgiveness. Just end it. I don't deserve to be here..."
"You think I'll let you live?" Kimberly's face was twisted with rage, making Lola's blood run cold.
The Kimberly who had always been so accommodating was now genuinely ready to kill her. The hatred and disgust in her eyes were unmistakable.
Lola was truly terrified, her mind blank and her body trembling as she looked at Kimberly.
"Didn't you want Abella to beg you? Didn't you want her to kneel before you?" Kimberly's fury was uncontainable. "Want to live? Then beg properly."
Lola was panic-stricken, tears streaming down her face. She was already kneeling on broken glass, but Kimberly still wasn't letting her off.
She knew Kimberly was venting for Abella, but she had no other choice.
"I was wrong..." Lola's tears fell as she kowtowed to Kimberly for the first time.
Her forehead hit the shards of glass on the floor, immediately drawing blood.
"I've let down you and Dad for all their years of raising me." Lola cried as she kowtowed, "I was possessed, I wronged Abella, I wronged everyone in the Medici family. I was wrong, I shouldn't have done what I did."
Her forehead was bleeding, the blood pooling and dripping down.
The blood on her face made her smooth skin look horrifying.
Lola lifted her tear-streaked face, filled with regret. "Mom, I know nothing I say now will help. No matter how much I apologize, I can't make up for the harm I've caused Abella or the pain I've caused you. I've let you all down."
Kimberly's tears of grief and anger flowed, her body trembling with the pain as if her heart was being cut to pieces.
They had been blind to treat her as their own daughter.
"If it weren't for the Medici family, have you ever thought about what kind of life your family would have?" Beckett asked with hatred.
Lola saw the tears of anger and sorrow in Beckett's eyes, the father who had once been so kind.
Everyone in the living room looked at her with disdain, as if she were a venomous snake, filled with disgust and loathing.
Only now did Lola realize that without the Medici family, she and her biological parents might have lived an ordinary life, with her parents struggling to make ends meet.
She would have attended a regular school, lived in a regular house, without dozens of servants, without luxury cars, without expensive skincare products, and without beautiful clothes.
She wouldn't have met so many wealthy people, wouldn't have seen the high society circles, wouldn't have met someone as successful as Phillipe.
She might have been like any other college graduate, finding a stable job, marrying an ordinary man, and living an ordinary life.
It was the Medici family that gave her endless dignity and respect.
It was the Medici family that allowed her to live a life of luxury.
Without them, she wouldn't have attended the best schools, received a top-notch education.
She wouldn't have had so many renowned tutors.
She wouldn't have worn limited edition clothes and shoes, and carried exclusive designer purses.
Ordinary folks saved for months just to buy the cheapest luxury items.
But every time she walked into a store, the manager would either invite her to the VIP room or close the store just to serve her, sending new items directly to her home for her to choose from.
Her skincare products alone cost as much as a regular family's monthly expenses, even several months' expenses.
Her parents gave her endless pocket money, fulfilling her countless demands, yet she...
Her tears flowed freely as she closed her eyes, filled with regret.
At that moment, Caleb returned with several bodyguards, empty-handed.
Bonnie seemed to realize something, crossing her arms and asking calmly, "Has he run?"
"Checked the surveillance. He ran before Lauren brought her here."
Caleb glanced at the person on the floor, realizing Jacob probably thought that after eighteen years in this family, they wouldn't really do anything to Lola, so he didn't take her away.
"Jacob really doesn't care." Bonnie gave Lola a cold look, then took out her phone to call Steven. Her influence in the country wasn't as strong as the Medici family's, and Steven was currently the most powerful in the Medici family.
She briefly explained the situation to Steven, asking him to track down Jacob.
Steven was on a business trip in Slavia, planning to finish all his work and spend Easter with Abella. He hadn't expected such a big incident.
He had warned Lola before, but she hadn't repented, completely disappointing him.
"Aunt Bonnie, don't worry. I'll send someone to investigate immediately." Steven's voice was as calm as ever, as if nothing could shake him. "As long as Abella is safe, I'm relieved. Please comfort my parents for me. I'll be back tonight and home tomorrow."
"Okay." Bonnie appreciated Steven's straightforwardness. After hanging up, she looked at Lola with cold elegance. "Now we can have a proper talk."
Lola hadn't expected Bonnie to inform Steven so quickly. Once Steven knew, the others would soon find out.
Thinking that they might be as angry and disappointed as her parents, Lola felt a deep sorrow.
At first, she just wanted to keep her family's love.
"Lock her in the basement. Spread the word and let Jacob come to ransom her." Kimberly, overwhelmed with grief, spoke with unsteady steps, almost unable to walk.
"Mom..." Lola saw Kimberly collapsing and wanted to help her, but Bonnie was quicker, catching Kimberly in time.
Kimberly had fainted. Bonnie, calm and composed, looked at Lauren. "Go get the family doctor."
"I'll carry her..." Beckett seemed to age ten years in an instant. As he tried to lift Kimberly, he felt dizzy, his heart tightening painfully, making it hard to breathe.
