Married at First Sight (Serenity and Zachary) novel 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.”

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.
