Married At First Sight Chapter 3451
Married At First Sight Chapter 3451-Zachary didn’t know how to respond for a moment. He and Duncan could only worry.
Meanwhile, in Jensburg, Clarissa did not take advantage of the night to attack Liberty.
Someone came from Wiltspoon: Clive Stone, the eldest son of the Stone family. Clarissa quickly received the news.
Mr. Dunn, Clarissa’s assistant, entered her study. They discussed something privately, and no one else knew the details.
No more words were spoken that night.
The next day, it snowed heavily in Jensburg.
When Kathryn woke up, she saw a white ceiling and smelled medicine. This wasn’t her room. Pedro had sent her to the hospital.
She wondered what time it was. As her memory returned, Kathryn sat up quickly, but dizziness made her fall back onto the bed.
What kind of medicine did her mother give her? She was awake last night but felt dizzy and weak, falling asleep again soon. She didn’t remember Pedro sending her to the hospital.
“Miss, you’re awake.”
The noise startled Pedro, who was lying on the sofa in the small hall. He rushed in and touched Kathryn’s forehead, relieved that she didn’t have a fever.
Kathryn was taken to the hospital last night. After some examinations and blood tests, the results were still pending. The doctor couldn’t identify the medicine causing her weakness and dizziness. Pedro didn’t dare to say Clarissa gave Kathryn the medicine, claiming instead that she took something by mistake.
Kathryn slept all night, and Pedro stayed outside. He also monitored the Farrell family’s actions. Wiltspoon sent more people, including Clive Stone, to Jensburg.
Pedro realized Liberty didn’t leave Jensburg as Kathryn had asked. As a descendant of the Farrell family, she showed courage. If he were in her place, Pedro would also choose to stay. Leaving would only provide temporary safety but not future security since the main threat remained unresolved. They needed sufficient evidence to resolve the problem.
Even though the previous head’s assistant was alive, he might not have evidence of Clarissa’s conspiracy. The assistant’s claim of being hunted by Clarissa’s men could indirectly implicate her, but Clarissa might retaliate. More witnesses were needed to prove Clarissa harmed the previous head of the family.
“Mr. Fraser.”
Kathryn felt more comfortable lying down, so she didn’t force herself to sit up. Grabbing Pedro’s hand, she asked anxiously, “How is Liberty? Did my mother do anything? How long have I slept?”
“Ms. Hunt is still in Jensburg, staying at Fortress Hotel as usual. Madam Farrell did nothing, and you just slept for one night.”
Kathryn was not surprised that Liberty stayed in Jensburg but was surprised her mother did nothing. Her mother had even drugged her, seemingly to attack Liberty. Upon briefly regaining consciousness, Kathryn had heard her mother saying in tears that she was going to do something unpleasant and didn’t want Kathryn involved.
At that moment, Kathryn felt her mother still had some maternal love for her, not wanting her to be involved in hurting Liberty. However, if her mother hurt Liberty, Kathryn would feel guilty and ashamed.
Married At First Sight Chapter 3452
Married At First Sight Chapter 3452-Liberty asked, “My mom really didn’t do anything?”
Pedro replied, “Nothing was done, but Mr. Dunn met with Madam Farrell several times. I don’t know what they discussed.”
Pedro pulled over a chair, sat down by the bed, and helped Kathryn with the quilt.
“It snowed heavily again today,” he said.
Kathryn tilted her head to look out the window, seeing snowflakes drifting down.
“Miss, you woke up quickly and asked me to inform Miss Hunt to be on guard. Even people from Wiltspoon have come. Madam Farrell may change her plans knowing the situation has changed. Miss, get some rest and don’t worry. You’ve done your best.”
Even Liberty wouldn’t blame Kathryn. Clarissa was Kathryn’s biological mother, but Kathryn chose to do what was right and not side with her.
Pedro added, “Miss, are you hungry? I can get breakfast for you.”
“I didn’t feel hungry until you mentioned it. Now, I am,” Kathryn said. “Order takeout. Don’t leave my side now. In this state, anyone could harm me.”
She knew her mother wouldn’t let her off easily after revealing her plans. Her mother might even send someone to finish her off.
Pedro responded gently, “Okay.” He took out his phone and ordered takeout. “I’ll get some water to help you wash your face.”
Pedro stood up to fetch water, but Kathryn stopped him. “I can go myself,” she said, wanting to use the bathroom.
Pedro helped her up. Seeing her frown, he quickly said, “Miss, sit for a bit first so you don’t get dizzy.”
Kathryn nodded. After a while, she walked to the bathroom with Pedro’s support. “I feel like an old lady in her 80s or 90s. Even they are better off. For example, the old lady of the York family still flies around and chooses wives for her grandsons.”
Kathryn envied Old Madam York.
“Miss, when you reach Old Madam York’s age, you’ll be as strong as her. You have a good physical foundation,” Pedro reassured her.
Perhaps it was due to her strenuous upbringing, but Kathryn was in good health. If nothing unexpected happened, she could live to a ripe old age.
“I dare not think about it. Even if I reach that age, I won’t be as lucky as Old Madam York, surrounded by children and grandchildren. Mr. Fraser, wait for me outside. I’ll be fine.”
Kathryn refused Pedro’s help into the bathroom. They weren’t that close yet.
Pedro stopped at the bathroom door. “Miss, if you feel dizzy, please call me.”
“Yeah, I can manage,” Kathryn replied, closing the bathroom door.
Pedro guarded the bathroom door. A few minutes later, someone knocked on the ward door.
“Who?” Pedro asked coldly. He approached cautiously and saw four people through the small transparent glass. It was Holden and his three sons.
Pedro opened the door and let them in. “Mr. Janzen,” he greeted coldly, nodding to the three brothers.
The four, father and sons, didn’t mind Pedro’s coldness. They were used to the aloofness of assistants loyal only to Clarissa.
Married At First Sight Chapter 3453
Married At First Sight Chapter 3453-“Mr. Fraser,” Holden greeted with a forced smile. He felt very depressed. As Clarissa’s husband, he had no status in front of her assistants and had to maintain a friendly demeanor when talking to them.
“We came to see Kathryn. How is she? We were worried about her all night. We just found out you sent her to the hospital, so we hurried over.” Holden lied.
In reality, after Clarissa yelled at Holden and his sons last night, they quickly left the Farrell family mansion. They monitored the mansion, but there was no movement all night except for Mr. Dunn’s visits.
Holden wondered if he had guessed wrong or if Clarissa was setting a trap for her niece.
Pedro said calmly, “Miss is awake and not seriously ill. Mr. Janzen, you look more injured than Miss.”
Holden smiled awkwardly. “I had a fight with my wife. Seeing Kathryn like that, I was worried. After all, I am her biological father. Seeing my daughter lying motionless, I got angry and fought with my wife. I am no match for her.”
Feeling embarrassed, Holden raised the insulated lunch box in his hand. “It’s early, and you probably haven’t had breakfast yet. I made dumplings for Kathryn and brought them here. She likes dumplings stuffed with chives.”
Kathryn enjoyed the fragrance of leeks and liked dumplings filled with leeks, pork, and corn.
Holden’s sons also brought items: some had fruits, others had nutritional supplements, and more insulated lunch boxes. They even prepared breakfast for Pedro.
Pedro gestured for Holden and his sons to place their items on the coffee table. “Miss is in the bathroom. Please sit down. Would you like some water?”
Pedro entertained his guests like a host, making Holden and his sons uncomfortable, but they dared not challenge him.
“Thank you, but we are not thirsty. We just came to see Kathryn. If she’s fine, we can return to work without worries,” Marco said lightly.
Marco declined the water, and Pedro did not insist. With nothing else to say, they waited in awkward silence for Kathryn to finish in the bathroom.
When Kathryn emerged, Holden stood up, looking concerned. “Kathryn.”
“Dad, why are you here?” Kathryn asked, having overheard their conversation in the bathroom. She knew they came to check if she was still alive. She pretended nothing had happened, walked over, and sat on the single sofa. Pedro stood beside her, acting as her guardian angel.
Holden, filled with self-blame, said, “We came to see you. How are you? We were scared seeing you motionless last night. Look at me, the wounds on my face and arms are from your mom beating me. I thought she had hurt you and wanted to confront her, but I was useless. I couldn’t vent your anger and got beaten instead.”
Married At First Sight Chapter 3454
Married At First Sight Chapter 3454-Holden continued, “Now that we see you are fine, we are relieved. From now on, when your mother asks you to eat or drink, don’t touch anything. She is a very vicious person. She even harmed her own sister who raised her. She only loves herself. As long as you obey her, she’ll show some motherly love. But if you go against her, she’ll be ruthless.”
Holden criticized Clarissa in front of his children, though what he said was true. Clarissa was selfish and only cared about herself.
“Dad, I’m fine. You and my brothers can go back. Dad, take care of your health and don’t bother Mom unless necessary,” Kathryn said.
She knew her parents were now her enemies. They stayed together because they were too old to divorce, and Holden didn’t want to give up the benefits the Farrell family brought to the Janzen family.
Holden felt he had sacrificed his marriage and freedom for his family’s benefits and didn’t want to lose everything in his old age. So, this was how the old couple lived.
“I know. I won’t bother her even if I need something. She’s a crazy woman. Her beloved man is back, and she doesn’t care about me anymore,” Holden said sourly.
“Dad!” Kathryn called out seriously.
Holden stopped talking.
After a few minutes of silence, he said, “Kathryn, I made some nourishing soup for you. Drink it while it’s hot. It’s cold today, so keep warm and wear extra layers.”
“It’s early, and I don’t want tonic soup. Dad, you’re injured and need nourishment. Take it back. I’ve asked Pedro to order takeout. I prefer a light breakfast, just a bowl of porridge and a bun,” Kathryn replied.
Holden persisted, “I also cooked dumplings stuffed with chives.”
He tried to persuade Kathryn to eat the breakfast he brought. “Eating too much takeout isn’t good.”
Kathryn remained unmoved and insisted her father and brothers take everything they brought back. With no other options, they took their belongings and left the ward.
After they were far away, Marco looked around and whispered to Holden, “Dad, what should we do? We haven’t completed Mom’s task.”
Holden replied, “What can I do? Just tell your mother Kathryn refuses to eat. She doesn’t trust us. If we bring her breakfast, she won’t eat it. After what happened yesterday, she’ll never touch the food we prepare.”
Marco said with a headache, “I don’t know what Mom is up to. She won’t reveal anything. Dad, your analysis is off. Mom didn’t do anything to Liberty, but someone came from Wiltspoon—the eldest son of the Stone family and a descendant of my aunt. Do you think Mom spread the rumor to harm Liberty, letting people in Wiltspoon know and worry about Liberty’s safety, prompting them to come here? Is she setting another trap?”
Holden was silent for a moment. “I don’t know. It’s hard to guess what your mother does. Her mind is full of twists and turns. The people in Wiltspoon are really powerful. They got wind of the news quickly and arranged for support for Liberty.”
Marco and his brothers remained silent. They didn’t know Kathryn had asked Pedro to tip off Liberty the previous night.
Married At First Sight Chapter 3455
Married At First Sight Chapter 3455-Holden said, “Marco, even though nothing has happened yet, I’m sure I’m right. You should leave the city center and go back to our hometown. I’ll tell your mother later.”
Holden was too tired to figure out what Clarissa was planning and focused on saving his children and grandchildren first.
“Dad, you’re worrying for no reason. Nothing has happened.”
None of the three brothers wanted to leave.
Holden insisted, “I’m not worrying for no reason. You’ll understand when the time comes. If you still respect me as your father, follow my instructions.”
“Dad, I’m going back to tell Mom about my divorce. I’m leaving now.”
Marco found an excuse to leave first.
His two younger brothers also found excuses to leave. Holden was furious, but he couldn’t do anything about his three sons.
Since his three sons were reluctant to leave the bustling Jensburg, Holden decided to take his grandchildren back to their hometown.
With this in mind, Holden called his daughters-in-law. Except for Erika, the eldest daughter-in-law, he had no contact. Marco’s children would go with Erika to her parents’ home during the winter vacation. With the couple divorcing, the children would likely choose their mother.
This way, even if the Farrell family changed hands, it wouldn’t significantly impact the children.
So, Holden only took his two younger sons’ children with him.
Anya and Amora, the two daughters-in-law, didn’t think much about it. They were just worried about the upcoming winter vacation and their children causing a ruckus at home. Since their father-in-law offered to take the children back to his hometown for the winter vacation, they gladly agreed.
They sent the children to Holden, who took them away from the center of Jensburg.
…
In Liberty’s office, she brought out two cups of coffee and walked towards Clive, who was sitting on the sofa.
She handed one of the cups to Clive.
“Cousin, have a cup of coffee.”
“Thanks.”
Clive took the cup and thanked her. The coffee was still hot, so he put the cup down.
Liberty was about to sit down when the intercom phone rang.
She went over to answer it.
“Boss Hunt, Mrs. Clarissa Farrell is here. She says she wants to see you.”
Clarissa is here?
The person who had kept Liberty on edge all night had finally made a move.
Liberty had been analyzing Clarissa’s motives with Clive, but she didn’t expect Clarissa to show up.
It was just after nine in the morning.
“Let her in.”
If Clarissa dared to come, Liberty was not afraid to see her.
The secretary acknowledged and hung up the phone.
A few minutes later, the secretary knocked on the door and informed Liberty and Clive that Clarissa had arrived.
The secretary then invited Clarissa in.
Clarissa entered alone, without her entourage.
It wasn’t that she didn’t have anyone with her; her assistant and bodyguards were stopped by Jim and the other bodyguards. They weren’t allowed to enter Liberty’s office.
Before she came in, Jim carefully checked her coat and trouser pockets. They weren’t bulging, so he believed she wasn’t carrying a weapon like a pistol. That’s why Jim let her in.
Clarissa had considered taking action herself and shooting Liberty in person.
She secretly possessed guns, and only her assistant, Mr. Dunn, knew about this.
Kathryn said nothing.
Married At First Sight Chapter 3456
Married At First Sight Chapter 3456-Clarissa knew that Kathryn still had a conscience and strong moral values. If Kathryn knew Clarissa privately owned guns, she might kill her in the name of justice. That would be a fate worse than death for Clarissa—she’d be ridiculed endlessly. Such mockery would be her comeuppance, all at the hands of Kathryn.
Just last night, she had fallen into Kathryn’s grasp.
Kathryn had clearly drunk the water, even if it was just a sip. The amount of drug Clarissa added was enough to knock Kathryn out for days.
Who would have thought that not long after Pedro took Kathryn away, Liberty got the news?
Immediately after, Clive flew to Jensburg overnight.
Clarissa knew it was Kathryn who had informed Liberty.
After Pedro took Kathryn away, he didn’t take her home but to the hospital. The doctor identified the drug and treated her promptly, so Kathryn quickly recovered.
Clarissa had her sons visit Kathryn with breakfast laced with sleeping pills.
However, Kathryn wasn’t fooled and refused to eat the breakfast they brought.
Well.
Clarissa sighed inwardly, feeling like she was already facing retribution.
Kathryn didn’t agree with her.
She knew Kathryn would sacrifice even her own family for justice.
Clarissa thought that if she and Audrey really fought to the death, it would probably be Kathryn who would ultimately bring her down.
If Kathryn had grown up by her side, Clarissa would have handed over the Farrell family to her long ago and retired to enjoy her grandchildren.
With the news out, Clarissa and Assistant Dunn discussed her options: either wait for the truth to come out and openly confront Audrey, or shoot Liberty and Clive immediately.
After entering Liberty’s company, Clarissa left the small pistol in the car and didn’t take it with her.
Liberty was guarding against her like a thief.
Even if she wanted to shoot, she probably wouldn’t succeed in killing Liberty with one shot.
As expected, Liberty’s bodyguards didn’t allow Clarissa’s people to follow her into the office. The bodyguard named Jim eyed her sharply, as if checking for hidden weapons.
Jim had been Zachary’s personal bodyguard. When Liberty came to Jensburg, Zachary assigned his best guard to her.
Clarissa was somewhat glad she changed her mind at the last minute.
Assistant Dunn suggested hiring mercenaries, changing identities, disguising themselves, and sneaking into Jensburg to find an opportunity to kill Liberty and Clive.
If one person came from Wiltspoon, they would kill one. If two came, they would kill both. Even if they were eventually punished by the law, killing so many people would be a victory.
The main reason was that if Audrey’s two nieces (Serenity and Liberty) and her biological daughter (Elisa) were all gone, even if Clarissa were sentenced to death, the Farrell family would fall to the head of the family’s branch. Kathryn didn’t know about their plan.
Kathryn could take over the Farrell family.
Clarissa wanted to fight to the death with the people from Wiltspoon mainly because she didn’t want to hand over the Farrell family, which she had run for decades, to her eldest sister’s descendants.
Clarissa was waiting for Assistant Dunn to complete the task.
In the next few days, she had to do some things to make the people from Wiltspoon nervous, prompting Audrey to come over.
Once everyone was gathered, she could deal with them all at once.
“Liberty, your bodyguards are standing at your office door. Are you treating me like a thief?”
As soon as Clarissa came in, she spoke to Liberty.
“I am your grandmother.”
Clarissa emphasized her status as an elder.
She looked at Liberty and Clive, “Don’t you two cousins have manners? When I arrived, you didn’t even say hello or invite me to sit down.”
Liberty pointed to a seat indifferently, “Then please have a seat, Grandma.”
“Snort.”
Clarissa sat down and said, “Your parents died early, so no one taught you manners. Forget it, Clive, you are the eldest son of the Stone family, but you don’t know etiquette. Do you not respect me as your grandmother, or does your Stone family lack proper education?”

Married At First Sight Chapter 3457
Married At First Sight Chapter 3457-
Clive didn’t respond. He stood up and quickly poured a glass of warm water for Clarissa.
He placed the cup of warm water in front of her and said in a deep voice, “Do you dare to drink the water I poured for you?”
Clarissa looked up at Clive, jealousy burning in her heart.
Why were other people’s sons always so outstanding?
Her own three sons could never compare. Although she valued girls over boys, she had invested a lot of time and effort in training her three sons, but in the end, they had to rely on the Farrell family for survival.
Whenever they tried to start a business, they always incurred losses and often asked Clarissa, as their mother, to cover them.
Clarissa lowered her gaze and said calmly, “I don’t drink plain water. It has no taste. You two should call me grandma twice so that I can hear it.”
“Have you put yourself in the position of our grandma? If the elders are not kind and respectful, the younger generation will also be disrespectful,” Clive said, sitting back in his seat.
His words made Clarissa visibly unhappy. She didn’t consider these younger generations as relatives. To her, they were enemies. She wished she could wipe out all these youngsters.
Liberty also spoke calmly, “Everyone knows each other well, so there is no need to pretend to be relatives here. Even if we are truly related, you do not regard us as family. You want to wipe us out.”
Even when Clarissa went to Wiltspoon, she did not treat Liberty’s aunt, Audrey, as a relative, even though Audrey was Clarissa’s niece.
Clarissa was even more arrogant to these younger generations. Since the relationship was about to break, there was no need to pretend.
If Clarissa valued family, she would not have killed her own sisters decades ago. If it weren’t for Clarissa’s ruthlessness, Serenity and Liberty would not have suffered ten years of misfortune.
“To us, you are not an elder, but an enemy,” Liberty emphasized the word “enemy.”
Clarissa said coldly, “You are all descendants of my eldest sister. My eldest sister was very particular. If she knew that her descendants were of such low quality and disrespectful to their elders, she would not rest in peace.”
Liberty retorted, “My grandma never saw us, nor did she raise us. How we grew up had nothing to do with her. But you were raised by my grandma. She was particular and yet she taught you to be heartless and ungrateful. My grandma was your eldest sister, so she was also an elder. Did you respect her? How did my grandparents die? How did my third grandparents die? You have no idea?”
Clarissa had killed her grandparents’ family and forced her aunt Audrey and mother Harlow to flee at a young age, ending up in an orphanage.
Her mother’s tragic fate was caused by the heartless, ungrateful, and cruel old woman in front of her.
Liberty looked at Clarissa with eyes full of hatred.
Did she want respect?
Haha, dream on!
When enemies meet, they are extremely jealous of each other. Who would respect their enemy?
Clarissa remained silent.
If anyone else had accused her of killing her sisters, she would have slapped them and threatened to sue for defamation. But in front of Liberty and others, she no longer had the confidence to shout.
Married At First Sight Chapter 3458
Married At First Sight Chapter 3458-
There was already evidence in Wiltspoon City. Clarissa never dreamed that even after decades, the truth would still be revealed one day.
She never thought that her two nieces could still rise on their own, even without the support of their original families.
They had returned to wealthy families and had the support of more powerful families. Those destined for a good life would always have one.
“Matriarch Farrell, I wonder what brings you here to visit us?” Clive asked in a deep voice when Clarissa remained silent.
Clarissa looked at Clive with hatred, feeling that this grandson and Liberty carried a bit of the shadow of her elder sister. Did she have to live under her sister’s shadow all her life?
Clarissa said, “Liberty, if I said I’m here to kill you, are you afraid?”
Liberty’s eyes flickered, and she answered honestly, “Of course, I am afraid. Who isn’t afraid of death? Don’t you fear death? However, I know you don’t like to do business at a loss. Even if you really want to kill me right now, you’re still worried that the connections behind me will wipe out the people you care about.”
“You want to wipe us out?” Clarissa actually laughed out loud. “As expected of my eldest sister’s granddaughter! You have my eldest sister’s intelligence, composure, and courage.”
Liberty accepted the compliment from Clarissa and said, “Thank you for the compliment. I am my grandmother’s descendant, so I naturally resemble her. However, you’re different from her. My grandmother raised you, but you were not good to her. I, however, am different. My sister Serenity, whom I raised, is very kind to me and has never had any intention of harming me.”
When Liberty’s parents died, Serenity was only ten years old and Liberty was fifteen.
When relatives were unwilling to lend a helping hand, and Liberty and Serenity were kicked out of the house by their grandparents and uncles, Liberty had to shoulder the burden of raising Serenity on her young shoulders.
The way Liberty raised Serenity was quite similar to how her grandmother raised her two younger sisters. The difference was the result.
Her grandmother died at the hands of Clarissa, whom she had raised. However, Liberty was where she was today thanks to Serenity. Serenity would never do anything to let Liberty down or hurt her.
Clarissa’s expression turned extremely ugly again. She couldn’t help but ask in a cold voice, “Liberty, do you have evidence to prove that I killed your grandmother? You are a junior, and you are always pointing fingers in front of me.”
Liberty sneered, “When you heard that my grandpa Jimenez was still alive, you were as anxious as an ant on a hot pot. Isn’t that because you are guilty? You probably couldn’t have imagined that, back then, you sent so many assassins to hunt down my grandfather Jimenez, but he was saved by masters. Those masters were people you would never dream of. No one would question what they said. Their credibility is 100%.”
“Mr. Jimenez?” Clarissa was confused at first, but then she understood. Yes, when her two nieces (Audrey and Harlow) were young, they liked to call him Uncle Jimenez. Because her eldest sister told the two children that he was the most loyal to her, the two children called him Uncle Jimenez. In the end, everyone called him Uncle Jimenez, and few people remembered his real name.
Clarissa laughed to herself, thinking that perhaps she was the only one who still remembered his real name.
“Is Mr. Jimenez okay?” Recalling the past, Clarissa’s expression relaxed a lot. Without waiting for Liberty to answer, she laughed and said, “Since you have enough evidence, ask Audrey to produce it. I want to see how much evidence you have to prove that I killed my sisters! Liberty, let me tell you, the chair I’m sitting on cannot be taken away by anyone unless I give it up! I will only hand over everything to my daughter. If my daughter really doesn’t want to take over, I can also pick an outstanding girl from a close branch of the clan to take over.”
What this meant was that no one close to the clan would be allowed to take over like Liberty.
Married At First Sight Chapter 3459
Married At First Sight Chapter 3459- Liberty was filled with rage after hearing this.
Clive used his eyes to comfort Liberty, signaling her not to be angry.
Clarissa did this on purpose to provoke them.
The angrier they were, the happier she would be.
Clarissa wanted to get rid of the cousins but didn’t have a perfect plan yet. She could only provoke them and make them angry.
“Matriarch Farrell, we are looking forward to seeing if you can do what you say,” Clive said in a low voice. “Even the Farrell family mansion is in such a mess that even you can’t handle it properly. I don’t know how you’ve managed the Farrell family for the past few decades. Other families are becoming more and more powerful. Not to mention the whole country, but just in this province and city, they can at least maintain their status as big bosses. Matriarch Farrell, take a look at what position your Farrell family has in Jensburg?”
Clive deliberately mocked Clarissa’s abilities. Clarissa could make them angry, and they could also make Clarissa angry.
Clive added, “Look at Serenity’s in-laws. The York family has always been the leader in Wiltspoon. My business cannot surpass the York family, but we can still maintain our status. Unlike the Farrell family, now in Jensburg, even you, Matriarch Farrell, don’t have much face, let alone other people in the family. When people mention the Farrell family, they all curl their lips.”
Clarissa’s face turned green.
Clive’s words were heartbreaking.
The Farrell family had fallen from being the largest family in Jensburg to almost being out of the list of wealthy families. The Farrell clan members had no status in Jensburg.
In Clive’s words, let alone the Farrell clan members, even she, Clarissa, didn’t have much face.
In recent years, the Farrell family has always been in trouble. First, it turned out that the successor she had been cultivating was not her biological daughter, but the daughter of the Farrell family’s former housekeeper. As the head of the family, she didn’t even know that her own daughter had been switched with someone else. This made her a laughing stock.
Later, she caught her husband cheating on her, and her three sons were living lives of debauchery and having mistresses, so her sons and daughters-in-law were getting divorced.
As for the scandal between Holden and Shiloh, everyone who knew about it knew about it.
Everyone was laughing behind her back, and it felt like the Farrell family under her management had become a topic of conversation among others.
There were even rumors that she had killed her sisters to get to the top, which spread throughout Jensburg. No one said anything to her face, but she knew how they looked at her behind her back.
After Liberty came to Jensburg, she knew a little about how many relatives and close branches of the Farrell clan had secretly joined Liberty. Under her management, the Farrell family was not united but rather like loose sand. The glory she had under the care of her mother and elder sister was long gone.
The older generation of Jensburg’s business community, those over 70 or 80 years old, all knew how powerful the Farrell family managed by her eldest sister was and often compared her with her eldest sister.
She had never been convinced or reconciled, but now she had to face this reality. She was not as good as her elder sister in some aspects.
“I want to see how many more years your Stone Group can prosper!” Clarissa said viciously, then stood up and walked away with a sullen face.
Married At First Sight Chapter 3460
Married At First Sight Chapter 3460- “Goodbye, I won’t see you off!” Clive and Liberty said almost simultaneously.
Clarissa walked to the door of the office, paused, turned her head, and glared at Liberty, sneering, “Remember, this is Jensburg. In Jensburg, my Farrell family is still stronger than yours!”
Liberty smiled and admitted, “I never said you weren’t as good as me. That would be a huge blow to your self-esteem. I’m new here and have only been in Jensburg for a few months. If the Farrell family isn’t even as good as me, I might as well go out and bang my head against the wall. If you want to bang your head against the wall, do it far away. Don’t do it here and make my place dirty.”
Clarissa was so angry that she wanted to kill these two people immediately. She still held back. If a 70-year-old woman couldn’t endure this much, then she might as well bang her head against the wall.
Clarissa opened the office door and held her head high, like a rooster that had won a competition. Little did she know she was a defeated rooster, just trying to save face.
“Matriarch Farrell,” the bodyguards quickly followed Clarissa.
Jim took someone with him, not to see them off, but to monitor them, ensuring that Clarissa and her group left honestly.
He wanted to make sure they wouldn’t turn back halfway or do anything tricky in the company.
Liberty picked up her unfinished cup of coffee, took two sips, and said to Clive, “I have to learn from you, cousin.”
She didn’t have Clive’s composure yet.
Clive said gently, “Take your time. With more experience, you’ll become mature and steady. When I first entered society, I was still a young boy and was easily angered. I even fell into other people’s traps. Every time you suffer a loss, you learn a lesson. In life, you have to go through a lot of ups and downs and endure many trials and tribulations.”
Liberty said, “When I first entered society, I was like a Ninja Turtle. The struggles in the workplace were fierce, and the waters were deep. No matter what came my way, I would avoid it if I could, and endure it if I couldn’t. I was afraid of losing my job. At that time, we had spent all the money we had, and we had to support Serenity’s education. If I didn’t have a source of income, Serenity and I would have trouble making ends meet. How could I dare not do what others did and just quit my job if I didn’t want to? I had to keep working no matter how hard or tiring it was. After gaining experience, I would change companies and slowly climb up the ladder. When my income increased, my life became much easier.”
Clive admired Liberty.
No matter how difficult their situation was, Liberty never gave up on nurturing her younger sister.
Serenity was proficient in playing the piano, chess, poetry, and painting. She had also learned martial arts and weaving small items. All of these skills were due to Liberty’s support.
Without Liberty, there would be no Serenity today. Therefore, the relationship between the two sisters was enviable.
After Serenity grew up, she tried her best to repay Liberty. She got married so quickly just to save Liberty’s marriage and didn’t want to make life difficult for her.
Clive said, “Liberty, it’s all in the past. You and Seren’s lives will only get better and better. My mother had been looking for my aunt and you, but fate likes to play tricks on people. It took my mother so long to find you. She didn’t even get to see her only sister for the last time.
My mother cried for a long time when she found out that her sister, whom she had been searching for decades, had passed away more than ten years ago. In my memory, my mother was a very strong and competitive person. She often said that crying wouldn’t solve problems, so she wouldn’t cry.
It was the first time I saw my mother cry so sadly and heart-wrenchingly. No matter how we tried to comfort her, she wouldn’t stop.”
They were all born with a silver spoon in their mouths, with their parents and family around them since childhood.
They had deep affection for their brothers and sisters and couldn’t understand the kind of torn pain their mother felt.
The sister Audrey had been searching for decades had passed away long ago. No longer able to see her only sister, Audrey’s love shifted to her two nieces.
When Audrey first met Serenity and Liberty, her love for them was so great that Clive and his two siblings had to stand aside.
