Mr. Jimenez, trembling slightly, extended his hand to shake Kathryn’s and said, “You are kinder and more dignified than your mother.”
Kathryn’s eyes reflected that she lacked the cruelty and malice of Clarissa. In a sense, God had spared Clarissa of a better legacy—Kathryn, her biological daughter, had not been raised under Clarissa’s influence and had cultivated a different character and set of values. Had Kathryn been brought up by Clarissa, she might not even be alive today.
“Thank you for the compliment, Mr. Jimenez,” Kathryn replied with a smile, expressing her gratitude before greeting those she recognized.
For those she did not know, she simply smiled and nodded.
Kathryn did not take offense at Audrey’s apparent disinterest in making introductions; she assumed they might be old friends of Mr. Jimenez.
Pedro had informed her that her mother had sent assassins to kill Mr. Jimenez. If no one had intervened, considering her mother’s ruthlessness, Mr. Jimenez would have been dead long ago, with a grave taller than a person. He had been out of contact for decades, likely rescued by those who saved him.

Clarissa had searched for him for years, believing he was dead. But to everyone’s surprise, he had survived and returned.
Kathryn felt a bitter smile form inside her. They say that if you want to keep a secret, you shouldn’t act on it. Decades ago, her mother had made a grave mistake, thinking that eliminating everyone involved would bury the truth forever. Yet here they were, 40 or 50 years later, with people who knew the truth coming forward to expose her mother’s past.
Meanwhile, eager reporters snapped pictures of the group.
It was actually Hayden who had called them, but she did so at
Audrey’s request stemmed from her desire to take revenge on Clarissa for her parents’ actions and tarnish her reputation. However, in Jensburg, Audrey, as the daughter of the former matriarch, wielded little influence. Even Kathryn, the current successor, had minimal impact in the city, certainly less than heirs from other affluent families.
In contrast, Hayden’s situation was markedly different. She was incredibly well-known in Jensburg, especially after the revelation that the eldest master of the Queen family was a woman. This fact elevated her to celebrity status in the city, recognized even by street cleaners. The influence of the Queen family in Jensburg far surpassed that of the Farrell family, and Hayden could easily summon media attention with just a phone call.
As the past of the Farrell family was poised to be unveiled, the gathering that night was filled with prominent figures. Representatives from several major families in Wiltspoon were in attendance. Even the head couple of the Lafayette family from Meadspring claimed they were simply visiting for tourism, but it was clear they came to participate in the event.
It was well-known that Serenity, the eldest daughter of the York family, and Jane, the eldest daughter of the Johnson family, shared a close friendship. The head of the Lafayette family was related to Jane’s mother, suggesting that Jane had likely asked her brother to attend in hopes of offering assistance. Both Jane and Serenity placed great value on their friendships, and if Jane could help, she certainly would.
Meanwhile, Marco, his brothers, and many other family members had also gathered for the event.
to participate in the event. It was well-known that Serenity, the eldest daughter of the York family, and Jane, the eldest daughter of the Johnson family, were close friends. The head of the Lafayette family was related to Jane’s mother, making it likely that Jane had asked her brother to come and see if he could provide assistance. Both Jane and Serenity held their friendships in high regard, and if Jane could be of help, she would certainly step in.
Meanwhile, Marco and his brothers, along with many family members, had also come out to witness the event. They were there to support Audrey, and many were curious about her. The last time she visited, most had not had the chance to meet her, and they were eager to finally meet the eldest daughter of the former matriarch.
