Matriarch Farrell hummed, “That’s good. I’m not at home, so they’ll listen to Kathryn. Anyone who dares to be disrespectful to her is being disrespectful to me.”
The butler looked stern and responded quickly: “Okay, Madam.”
“It’s okay, I’ll hang up first.”
After Matriarch Farrell hung up the phone, she was able to get off the plane.
She did not call her husband for the time being, nor did she notify anyone to pick her up at the airport. She came back early just to see how Kathryn was doing while she was not at home.
So she didn’t notify anyone in advance to pick her up at the airport.
After getting off the plane, the group walked out of the airport, hailed two taxis, and reported the address of Farrell Group.
Matriarch Farrell did not go home but wanted to go to the company.
After the taxi drove for more than ten minutes, Matriarch Farrell called Holden. It took Holden a while to answer her call.
“What are you doing? It took you so long to answer the phone.” Matriarch Farrell asked Holden.
Holden was still a little out of breath, so he lied: “I was at home, and my phone was charging upstairs. When I heard the phone ring, I ran up to answer the call. I was exhausted from running. I am old, and I am out of breath even after running a few stairs.”
Matriarch Farrell smiled and said, “You think you are still young? We are all over seventy years old.”
“Honey, when will you come back?” Holden asked, “Why did you go to the wedding for so long? It took more than half a month to leave. It’s been almost a month, and you didn’t take me with you.”
“I’m not just attending the wedding; I have other things to be busy with, and you can’t help me. What are you going to do with me? I haven’t finished my work yet. I won’t be able to go back for a few days. Please keep an eye on the things at home; Kathryn’s foundation is too shallow, and everyone is not very convinced of her yet.”
“I will, Kathryn… Wife, it’s not that I have any objection to our biological daughter. It’s actually that this daughter is not of the same mind as us. She didn’t grow up beside us and has never had any feelings for us. She… alas, If you don’t say it anymore, if you say it too much, others will say that we, the husband and wife, favor Shiloh.”
