Chapter 4137
Marco attempted several times to interrupt his sister, but Kathryn’s words came at him like rapid-fire shots from a machine gun. He never had the chance to speak.
All he could do was glare at Kathryn with a sullen expression.
If looks could kill, she would have been shredded by now.
After Kathryn finally finished speaking, she picked up her cup and took a few sips of coffee.
She then said, “Brother, I’ve been talking so much that my lips are dry. I really tried my best to reason with you—just as you tried to persuade me not to give up Farrell’s.
“But let’s be honest. Even if I don’t return Farrell’s to our cousins, do you really think I can maintain the position of family head?
“No one in the family is on our side. They might not fully support my cousins, but they certainly don’t support us either. They have resented Mom and us for a long time. Without their backing and without the power to outmaneuver our cousins, it’s only a matter of time before they reclaim Farrell’s.
“So instead of clinging to something that was never truly ours, I’d prefer to hand it back to them on my terms. This way, we can at least secure a path for survival rather than fighting a losing battle.”
Kathryn sighed. “But you don’t appreciate my good intentions, let alone my efforts. There’s no point in repeating myself—you must be tired of hearing it by now. So, what brings you here?”
It was only then that she acknowledged why Marco had knocked on her door.
Marco took several deep breaths, trying to suppress his anger. After a few moments, he handed her a document.
“Kathryn, please take a look at this plan I put together,” he said. “I showed it to Liberty, but she outright rejected it and scolded us, calling us useless.”
“Freeloaders,” she accused, “you are incompetent and should leave.” Lowering his voice, he bitterly added, “She even threatened that if we don’t improve, we’ll be fired. If she truly wants us gone, she’d better be ready to pay a hefty severance. Otherwise, we’re not going anywhere.”
Kathryn took the folder from him, flipped through it, then closed it and tossed it back in front of him. “Liberty had every right to call you out,” she said flatly. “If you’re not competent, you shouldn’t be in a position where you’re collecting a hefty paycheck for doing nothing.
“Brother, you’ve been with Farrell Group for over a decade, right? How is it that your skills are deteriorating instead of improving? Is it due to a lack of attention, or are you intentionally messing things up?”
She paused before continuing. “I don’t know what Mom taught you, but she always insisted she raised you three equally and provided the same education. So why is it that…?” She trailed off, finally realizing why Clarissa had always avoided discussing her three sons. Whenever they were mentioned, Clarissa would change the subject. Clearly, she had her disappointments.
Now, Kathryn understood why. Still, as their mother, Clarissa had done everything she could to present them as business elites.
