Chapter 4304
Kathryn shook her head. “Liberty, I’m not the successor anymore. She’s your assistant. You should know her background—I don’t need to read it.”

She had read Pedro’s resume before, but Pedro was her man.

Since Kathryn declined, Liberty folded the resume, placed it back in the envelope, and set it on the coffee table. Then she turned to Makayla. “Have a seat.”

Makayla remained standing. “Master, after reporting in, I need to settle into my residence. I won’t stay with you unless instructed otherwise.”

Her contact number was listed in the resume, so if Liberty needed her, she could call anytime.

“Where will you be living?” Liberty asked.

“I’ll be staying where my senior brother Fraser lives—it’s the closest residence to the Farrell family mansion.”

Assistants had the option to purchase their own homes, but there was one condition: their residence couldn’t be too far from the mansion. As all-around assistants, they also served as bodyguards, and living too far away would make fulfilling their duties difficult.

Beyond settling in, Makayla also needed to establish her network—an essential part of her training. Assistants weren’t just highly skilled individuals; they were trained to build connections and accumulate influence, which was later assessed by their superiors.

However, betraying the Matriarch using those connections carried severe consequences. Anyone who did would be hunted down by the island, no matter where they fled. Some assistants were even subjected to special control methods—if they ever turned against the Matriarch, their fate would be gruesome.

Liberty said, “Your senior brother Fraser is cooking inside. Don’t rush off just yet—stay for dinner. Afterward, he can take you to settle in.”

Makayla didn’t refuse. She bowed slightly. “Thank you, Master.”

“I’ll go help with the cooking.”
Her loyalty was entirely devoted to Liberty. Whatever Liberty commanded, she would do. That mindset had been ingrained in her for twenty-seven years. Now that she had Read on agrokhabar net officially reported in, she belonged to Liberty.

As Pedro had once told Kathryn—he was hers in life and even in death.

From the kitchen, Pedro’s surprised voice rang out. “Makayla, it’s you!”

“Brother Fraser. It’s been a while.”

Her tone remained as cool and composed as ever.

Pedro grinned. “It has been a while.”

Pausing his cooking, he reached out and shook hands with her. “Welcome to your new role.”

Kathryn could finally step away from the burdens of the Farrell family. From now on, everything would be Liberty’s responsibility. That was the destiny of the Farrell family Matriarchs.

Pedro introduced Makayla to Duncan. “Mr. Lewis, this is Makayla, my junior sister. She’s here to take over my duties.”

Then he turned to Makayla. “This is Mr. Lewis—the Matriarch’s husband. He’s the fourth young master of the Lewis family in Wiltspoon.”

Makayla acknowledged Duncan politely but without the same deep respect she showed Liberty.

She likely understood the unspoken truth—no matter who the Matriarch married, their role in the family remained clear.

For many, the husband of the Matriarch was little more than a means to produce an heir.
