Chapter 3459

Liberty was filled with rage upon hearing this.

Clive attempted to soothe Liberty with a glance, urging her not to be angry.

Clarissa had intentionally provoked them.

The more furious they became, the more pleased she would be.

While Clarissa aimed to eliminate the cousins, she had yet to devise a solid plan. For now, her only strategy was to incite their anger.

“Matriarch Farrell, we look forward to seeing if you can fulfill your promises,” Clive said quietly. “Even the Farrell family mansion is so chaotic that you can’t manage it properly. I’m baffled by how you’ve handled the Farrell family for the last few decades. Other families are growing stronger, not to mention the entire country. In this province and city alone, they manage to maintain their status as prominent players. Matriarch Farrell, just take a look at your family’s standing in Jensburg.”

Clive deliberately ridiculed Clarissa’s capabilities. While she could provoke them, they could provoke her in return.

Clive continued, “Look at Serenity’s in-laws. The York family has always been a leader in Wiltspoon. My business may not surpass the York family, but we still manage to hold our ground. Unlike the Farrell family, which has lost its stature in Jensburg, even you, Matriarch Farrell, don’t command much respect, let alone the rest of your family. When people mention the Farrell family, they simply scoff.”

Clarissa’s expression darkened.

Clive’s words pierced deeply.

The Farrell family had fallen from being the most prominent family in Jensburg to nearly being forgotten among the wealthy. Members of the Farrell clan held no status in Jensburg.

According to Clive, it was not just the Farrell clan members who had lost their standing, but…

Even Clarissa had lost face.

In recent years, the Farrell family had consistently faced turmoil. First, she discovered that the successor she had been nurturing was not her biological daughter but the offspring of the family’s former housekeeper. As the family head, she was unaware that her own daughter had been swapped, which turned her into a laughingstock.

Later, she caught her husband in an affair while her three sons led lives of debauchery, resulting in their divorces from their wives.

The scandal involving Holden and Shiloh was common knowledge among those in the community.

People laughed behind her back, making the Farrell family under her leadership a frequent topic of gossip.

There were even whispers that she had murdered her sisters to rise to power, rumors that circulated throughout Jensburg. Although no one confronted her directly, she could feel their judgment.

When Liberty arrived in Jensburg, she learned that many relatives and branches of the Farrell clan had secretly aligned with Liberty. Under her management, the Farrell family was disjointed, resembling loose sand rather than a cohesive unit. The glory she once enjoyed under her mother and elder sister had long since faded.

The older generation of Jensburg’s business community, those in their 70s and 80s, often recalled the strength of the Farrell family managed by her eldest sister, frequently drawing comparisons between the two.

Clarissa had never accepted this reality, but now she had to confront the fact that she fell short compared to her sister in several aspects.

“I want to see how many more years your Stone Group can thrive!” Clarissa spat, before rising and leaving with a scowl.
