“Cousin.” “Cousin.”

Marco and his two brothers greeted Audrey individually, and she briefly glanced at them. Mr. Jimenez, realizing they were Clarissa’s sons, observed them a bit longer but remained silent. Although Marco and his brothers experienced a chilly reception, they were neither offended nor surprised. Their position in Jensburg was somewhat precarious. As young masters of the Farrell family, they carried the Janzen surname, which held little influence. If the Janzens had been more powerful, their father, Holden, wouldn’t have needed to become a son-in-law to the Farrells. Everything the Janzen family enjoyed stemmed from the Farrells’ support. It was Holden who endured it all, staying by Clarissa’s side with a smile.
As the group moved past, Marco quietly led his younger brothers to follow.
Shortly after, the butler emerged to greet the media reporters, organizing for a few servants to assist them while keeping them outside the house. Both inside and outside, the mansion was being readied for the dinner party. Since the house was insufficiently spacious to accommodate all the guests, the yard would also be utilized.

After Audrey and the others entered the mansion, Kathryn guided them inside, but Mr. Jimenez said, “Miss Audrey, I’d like to take a stroll around the yard.”
“Okay, I’ll join you, Uncle Jimenez. You can show me where my sister and I used to play when we were young,” Audrey replied. She then turned to Kathryn and added, “Kathryn, please look after our older guests.”
Before Kathryn could respond, Ezequiel and the others chimed in, “We’ll accompany Mr. Jimenez. Wherever he goes, we follow. Who knows if your mother has hidden bombs in the house or sprinkled gasoline everywhere, hoping…
“To burn us alive,” Kathryn heard, leaving her momentarily speechless. “Old senior, how could my mother do such a thing? The entire family is here tonight,” she said, bewildered. Ezequiel turned to Dakota and inquired, “What are your thoughts, Brother Dakota?” Dakota responded seriously, “No bombs, but I wouldn’t dismiss the possibility of gasoline. To be on the safe side, no one should enter tonight. If we must, Audrey should lead the way.”
Maintaining her composure, Kathryn smiled, “Tonight, I’ll ensure my cousin and all our senior guests are well taken care of.” Although Audrey hadn’t revealed who Ezequiel and the others were, Kathryn suspected they were not ordinary individuals. They were likely the ones who had rescued Mr. Jimenez years ago and had kept him hidden since then.
Mr. Jimenez spoke calmly, “Kathryn, Miss Audrey, let’s go.” He led them around the yard, commenting, “This place has changed a lot. The flowers and plants the original owner cherished are gone, and many things have been altered.” He continued, “Miss Audrey used to love swinging in the yard. I installed the swing for both young ladies, but I don’t see it anymore.”
Kathryn quickly interjected, “Mr. Jimenez, the swing has been moved to the backyard. There are swings in both the backyard and the front yard.” Upon hearing this, Kathryn fell silent. When she returned to the Farrell family, the front yard swing had already disappeared, and the one in the backyard appeared new. She assumed it was intended for her nieces and nephews, not the same swing her cousin had used decades ago.
Although the media reporters weren’t allowed…

Although the media reporters were not permitted inside, they observed as the group walked through the yard instead of entering the house. Maintaining a respectful distance, they recorded footage, hoping to capture any significant moments.
