Married at First Sight

"If Mom hadn't taken everything from our aunts, you wouldn't have all this wealth now. You can do what you want with your personal assets, but when it comes to the rest, I'm in charge, and my decision is final. Even if Mom came back to life, she couldn't change it, so neither can you." Kathryn looked at her three brothers and said, "I get it. I know you're angry and frustrated, so if you want to vent and shout at me, go ahead. I can take it. I won't hold it against you for that.

But don't even think about going back to the Farrell family mansion to take antiques or valuable items to sell. Those things have been in the family for generations and are meant to stay that way. Nobody has the right to sell them.

Even Mom knew not to touch those things. So don't listen to Dad's schemes about selling them. That would be stealing, and if your cousin calls the police, you'll be in serious trouble.

Don't expect me to bail you out, and you can't rely on Dad either. He's always been more interested in what he could gain from the Farrell family for the Janzen family than anything else." Kathryn believed that Holden did have some feelings for Clarissa, but their marriage was far from genuine love. It was a deal filled with complications.

Clarissa's heart belonged to someone else, Mr. Jimenez, long before she married Holden. Even after decades together, she never truly loved him. They stayed together mainly to have an heir. But she never allowed Holden to betray her, and that made his life difficult.Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.

Still, it was his choice to marry her, so he had no one to blame. Clarissa didn't force him into it.

Over the years, the Janzen family had benefited greatly from their connection to the Farrell family. Without that support, they might not have been as successful as they are today. Kathryn saw her parents' marriage as a business deal that just happened to last a lifetime.

"If you want to live a good life, follow my advice: leave the Farrell Group, sell your current house, and move farther away from the power center of the company. The farther, the better.

Don't chase after things that aren't meant for you. With the rent and income from your properties, even without a job, you can still support your family. Appreciate a simple life. Consider the wealth and status of the past few decades as just a dream. I'm telling you this because we're family. Whether you listen or not is up to you, but I won't say it again."

She showed her brothers a clear path, and it was up to them to decide whether to take it.

"If you keep to yourselves and don't stir up trouble, Audrey and Liberty won't come after you. You'll have a stable life as long as you don't provoke them. But if you act like Mom and always want more, I won't have to tell you what will happen-it won't end well." Clarissa's unwillingness to let go and her desire for more was what led her to take her own life.
