Married at First Sight

Chapter 3553

After a brief silence on the phone, Clarissa said to Kathryn, "Pedro is yours, and he will always be yours. I never said I wanted to take him away, and I don't have the authority to do so."

Once an all-purpose assistant is assigned to the head of the family or their successor, only the master they serve can decide their fate.

Clarissa continued, "I want to talk to Pedro. Have him come to the company. I'm still here."

Kathryn, wary, asked, "Mom, what do you want to talk to Pedro about? Shouldn't you tell me first before telling him?"

"Kathryn, don't you trust me? I'm your mother. Would I harm you? Pedro is yours and will always be yours. I have no power to change that. If you don't want him to come to me, I'll go to the hospital and talk to him alone. But if I do that, I might get upset and do something you won't like. You have two choices."

Kathryn sighed and said, “I'll tell him. But Mom, please send Dad and my brothers back. I don't need them to take care of me."

Kathryn could leave the hospital in a couple of days. She was almost fully recovered. It was Pedro who insisted she stay for a few extra days to rest. Besides, the conflict between the Farrell family and Wiltspoon had settled.

Leaving the hospital would put Kathryn in an uncomfortable position, caught between both sides.

Pedro, caring for her, didn't want her to face that stress just yet.

Clarissa asked, "Do you not want their care, or are you afraid they'll drug you?"

Kathryn answered bluntly, "Both."

She had no strong feelings for her father and brothers. Their care felt unnatural to her, and she didn't really need it-just someone to bring her meals.

In the first few days, she had been

el

weak and dizzy, needing Pedro's support to even get out of bed. If Clarissa asked Holden and her brothers to drug her, they likely would, and with a heavy dose. They wished she would sleep and never wake up.

In their eyes, she was the reason Shiloh lost favor and ultimately her life. To them, she was not a sister but someone who took away everything that belonged to Shiloh.

"Your father and brothers are your family. Blood ties remain, even if relationships have been strained. They may not have been kind in the past, but they never truly harmed you."

Clarissa wanted to defend her sons, hoping the family could live in peace.

Kathryn understood the idea of family loyalty, but although they shared the same mother, she had no bond with her three brothers.

Kathryn responded coldly, "It was

you, Mom, who kept them in line and I was too guarded to give them a chance. It's not that they didn't try to harm me-they just didn't succeed."

She felt no brotherly connection with them.Têxt belongs to NôvelDrama.Org.

Her relationship with her three sisters-in-law only improved because she sided with them when her brothers cheated and treated them unfairly.

Her eldest sister-in-law, Erika, wanted a divorce, and Kathryn supported her. The divorce was delayed due to an unresolved dispute over property division.
