Kathryn believed that everything in the Farrell family belonged to Audrey and the others and should be returned to them. She didn't consider her mother's perspective at all. Fortunately, Kathryn was the matriarch's biological daughter; otherwise, she would have been gone long ago.
After sending Kathryn away, Clarissa felt relieved. If she lived to see another day, she would send someone to bring her daughter back. Even though she couldn't see Kathryn, at least her life was spared. Among Clarissa's four children, only Kathryn wasn't married and didn't have children. The three sons all had families, and their wives had already taken the children back to Holden's hometown for the New Year, following his arrangements. Holden wanted to protect his side of the family, while Clarissa wanted to protect Kathryn. However, since they were all her grandchildren, she didn't ask her daughtersin-law to bring the children back. She let them stay with the Janzen family for the New Year, keeping them away from the conflict.
Holden did the right thing in this case. He knew how ruthless Clarissa could be and understood that if the children and grandchildren stayed, they wouldn't survive. Despite his warnings, the three sons refused to leave. Clarissa tightened her lips. Tonight, everything would depend on fate. If they were lucky, they might be saved. If they couldn't escape and were burned in the fire, at least she, their mother, would be with them, and many others would be buried alongside them.

Kathryn, who had been knocked unconscious and sent away, woke up halfway through the journey. She stayed still, pretending to be unconscious.
Pedro was waiting for her ahead. He had predicted that Clarissa wouldn't give up so easily.
If Pedro had followed Clarissa's plan and drugged her to take her out of Jensburg, Clarissa wouldn't have taken this step. But Pedro understood Kathryn's intentions and informed her about everything. Clarissa would find another way to send Kathryn away.
Kathryn appreciated Clarissa's efforts to save her, but she didn't want to run away. She wanted to face everything alongside her mother.
Whether Clarissa was right or wrong, alive or dead, she was still her mother. Others might resent her or hate her, but Kathryn, as her daughter, could not and would not.
Pedro didn't keep Kathryn waiting long.
Soon, the car carrying Kathryn stopped, as did the bodyguard car.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmPedro, wearing a black mask, got out of one of the cars. He had several cars with him, each carrying four bodyguards dressed in black.
"The young lady is in their car. Take her away, but don't harm them. Once you have her, knock them out, take their phones, and lock them up. Wait for my instructions before releasing them." If they resisted, they would be taught a lesson to prevent them from alerting Clarissa.
Pedro had brought many bodyguards, while only four were guarding Kathryn. Despite their skills, they were outmatched. They were knocked out before they could call Mr. Dunn. Just before losing consciousness, they saw Kathryn, who they thought was still unconscious, getting out of the car.
It turned out Kathryn had been awake all along! And these people were sent by Mr. Fraser. It was too late to react. Darkness took them away.
Pedro approached Kathryn, standing in front of her, and said respectfully, "Miss, everything is done." Like RICH WOMEN? X These women desperately want a mature men! JOIN NOW *Waming these rich women will persue you.
