Married at First Sight novel (Serenity and Zachary York)

Kathryn put the ice cubes she had brought into Holden’s hand and asked him to go back to the room and apply ice cubes on his
face.
Holden took the ice cubes and climbed upstairs.
There were only Matriarch Farrell and Kathryn in the hall.
Kathryn sat back next to Matriarch Farrell and comforted her: “Mom, my dad knows he was wrong. He will definitely not dare to
do that in the future, so don’t feel bad.”
Matriarch Farrell sighed and said to Kathryn, “Your dad is very dissatisfied with me. He is just afraid of my power and methods
and does not dare to resist. In the eyes of outsiders, we are a loving couple, but I know better than anyone what’s going on
inside.”
Kathryn: “Mom, since you know, why do you still want to live with Dad?”
After Matriarch Farrell was silent, she said, “Because your dad is very fickle, he has no future, but his family depends on our
Farrell family for their livelihood. He has to consider the future of his Janzen family.”
Kathryn: “Mom, you and your four brothers and sisters should also consider it for you. As long as he makes no big mistakes, you
will not divorce him.”
Matriarch Farrell: “I think that if you don’t give him money, even if he has evil intentions, he won’t have the ability. He ignores your
brother, and they will respect him.”
Kathryn said, “Mom, now you have warned my three brothers that they will not dare honor my dad in the future. My dad will be
even more dissatisfied with you.”
Matriarch Farrell: “So what? The day he chooses glory and wealth and becomes the son-in-law of my Farrell family, he should be
mentally prepared. In this family, he can’t even think of being the master of the family. Kathryn, in the future, if you recruit a son-
in-law, it’s better to recruit a weak man like your father with weak points.
Don’t expect to find a powerful man like Mr. Hayden Queen. That kind of man will not become a son-in-law for a woman from our
Farrell family.

A man like your dad is easy to control. Your dad always hopes that his daughter will come to power and that he can dominate.
Oh, just wait. As long as I’m alive, there will be no chance of him turning over. Before leaving this world, I will kill him first, and I
will never let him act like a father and dictate to you.”
Kathryn guessed that the previous matriarch, Farrell, died at the hands of her own mother. She knew that her mother was a cruel
and ruthless person, but she was still shocked when she heard what her mother said with her own ears.
She said, “Mom, I’m not Shiloh. Dad can’t tell me what to do.”
Matriarch Farrell looked at Kathryn for a while, then suddenly smiled and said, “That’s right, you have my blood in your body, so
you are not that easy to control. I know that I can live for another ten years without any problems. By then, your dad might be
dead.
Even if I’m not dead, I will lose my teeth because of my old age, and I won’t be able to do anything if I want to do it.”
“Mom, don’t be sad. You already knew what kind of person my dad is. It’s not worth ruining your body for someone like him.”
Kathryn comforted Matriarch Farrell: “How about I go out for a walk with you, mom?”
Matriarch Farrell took a few deep breaths and said, “No, I feel tired and want to be quiet. You can go do your work. I’ll just be
quiet for a while.”
Kathryn said, “I’ll go back to the company tomorrow. Mom, I’m worried about you being like this.”
Matriarch Farrell looked at Kathryn, raised her hand, and touched her face. Her sharp eyes softened a bit, and she said,
“Kathryn, I may be a loser. I’m not good at being a mother, and I’m not a good wife either. Sitting in the position of matriarch, I
have not led the Farrell family back to its peak. It is worse than when my sister was here.”
Matriarch Farrell suddenly felt that this might be her retribution.
Back then, she was frantic and plotted to harm her eldest sister’s family, and her younger sister also died under her plot.
She did not directly kill her sisters with a knife, but she planned their deaths and killed them.
Kathryn didn’t answer and didn’t know what to say.
Withdrawing the hand that touched Kathryn’s face, Matriarch Farrell suddenly said to Kathryn: “Kathryn, since you are not going
back to the company, go and help me do something; go to the Fortress Hotel to find Kevin and ask him to delete CCTV footage

in the hotel; your dad booked a room with that b*tch in his hotel.”
