Married at First Sight

"Auntie, I know my dad has a tough temper, and you take care of him every day. You've been working hard, so consider this a little extra for you-a bonus," Marco said. The nanny accepted the money from Marco without hesitation, thanked him, and left. Though she'd been unfairly scolded, the extra cash made it easier for her to let it go.

Ever since Holden was caught cheating by Clarissa, he acted obedient in front of her, but his attitude was completely different toward the nannies. He'd often lose his temper, and if even the smallest thing didn't go his way, he'd scold them or even ask the butler to fire them. One nanny had even quit after being yelled at by Holden.

"Why'd you give her money?" Holden grumbled to Marco. "She let go of the apple before I could hold it, and it fell to the dirty floor. Even if they mop the floor every day, it's still full of germs."

Holden continued, "You should watch your spending from now on. Only spend money when you need to. Your mother isn't around to cover for you anymore. By the way, did you handle what I asked you to do?"

Marco dragged a chair over and sat down. "Dad, it's obvious we didn't succeed. We can't even get into the house, and everyone at the company is watching us closely. It's not like before when people actually listened to us." Holden's face darkened. "Kathryn's stubborn and won't listen to a word I say. Did you at least ask her about your mother's will?"

"...I forgot," Marco said, looking embarrassed. "She made me so mad that I completely lost track of things."

"Don't worry about your mom's private property," Holden said. "They won't be able to take that from us. Our concern is that Kathryn won't share it with us. That girl always acts like she's fair and just, but when I see her, I just want to slap her." "Focus on getting your mom's private property first," Holden instructed. "Find her lawyer and see if your mom changed her will. If she didn't, then make sure Kathryn follows the will and gives you your share."

Marco nodded. "We'll talk to the lawyer and ask for a proper share of mom's inheritance."

Holden then asked, "Have those people from Wiltspoon made any moves yet?"

"No, not really," Marco replied. "Most of them have gone back home. OnlyContent protected by Nôv/el(D)rama.Org.

Audrey, her husband, that old man Jimenez, Liberty, Kevin, and Duncan are still around."

Holden thought for a moment. "It's probably because the New Year is coming up, and out of respect for your mom's passing, they're staying quiet for now. But once the New Year's over, they'll likely act. We still have a bit of time."

He added, "For now, focus on pushing Kathryn to share your mom's private property. You might not be able to get into the Farrell family mansion during the day, but you can always sneak in at night."
