Married At First Sight – Chapter 4290
Even the patients and their families on Kathryn’s hospital floor had grown weary of the daily spectacle. Most blamed Holden for his behavior. Only a few took the moral high ground, lecturing Kathryn as if they had any right.
She ignored them. Pedro dealt with those self-righteous busybodies for her.
Her only focus was recovery.
“Miss, should I get rid of him? He comes here every day, making the same scene, shouting the same nonsense. He may not be tired of hearing himself, but I sure am,” Pedro grumbled, handing Kathryn a peeled apple.

Kathryn took a bite and said, “Let him scream. It helps him blow off steam. If he bottles it up, it might ruin his health.” She chewed thoughtfully. “I don’t care what he says—everyone’s heard it all before. Let him talk; his words don’t affect me. But I want my father to live. I want him to live a long, long life—eighty, ninety, even a hundred years. And I want him to watch me live happily. Even if I never take over Farrell Group, I’ll still build my own success.”
Kathryn had already forged her own path.
Pedro was more than capable.
Once she recovered and was discharged, she planned to marry him. In every way that mattered, they were already husband and wife. When Liberty officially took over the Farrell family business, Kathryn and Pedro would leave that world behind and focus entirely on their own future.
Without the burden of the Farrell legacy, life would be much more peaceful.
“For all his noise, my father is the only one making a fuss,” Kathryn observed. “My three sisters-in-law have kept their distance. When he’s not around, they visit with their children. They comfort me, encourage me to focus on my recovery, and even have their kids apologize on behalf of my brothers. They’re far more reasonable than my father.”
Of course, that wasn’t surprising.
The brothers had treated their wives terribly. Now that they were in prison, their wives could finally breathe.
While they were free, those men had kept mistresses, betraying their marriages without a second thought.
The two younger sisters-in-law had remained in their marriages, swallowing their grievances for the sake of their children and their share of the inheritance.
The eldest sister-in-law, Erika, had divorced and was now working to change her children’s perception of Kathryn.
Surprisingly, Kathryn’s nieces and nephews had started treating her much better. After years of hearing their father and grandfather badmouth her, they had begun questioning things.
The older children, who had learned a bit about the law, understood that their fathers had committed serious crimes. They realized their aunt had every right to refuse forgiveness.
After all, their fathers had orchestrated the kidnapping with the intent to kill her.
There was no way she could have simply let that go.
Pedro scowled. “I get so mad hearing him insult you like that.”
Kathryn smiled. “Don’t waste your anger on him. Look at me—I’m not bothered. I’m here, eating my apple, enjoying my day. He can shout all he wants. In a few minutes, the doctor will call security to drag him away. I don’t care, but he’s disturbing other patients. Let’s see how long their families tolerate it.”
