Mr. Fraser, go out first. I’ll talk to my mother.” Kathryn knew that Pedro was worried and concerned about her.
She comforted him, “Don’t worry, my mother won’t really kill me. I was born by her, and I did something that ruined her plan. I deserve to be slapped by her.”
Clarissa didn’t really kill her because Kathryn felt Clarissa still cared about their relationship.
Pedro glanced at Clarissa, then looked at Kathryn’s red and swollen face with heartache, and walked out silently.
He asked the nurse for some ice and handed it to Kathryn, asking her to apply it to her face.
Kathryn took the ice and said, “I’ll apply it. You can go out now.”
Pedro pursed his lips and finally walked out.
When only the mother and daughter were left in the ward, Kathryn applied ice to her face and said, “Mom, you must be tired from standing. Pull a chair over and sit down.”
Clarissa stared at her for a while, then dragged a chair over and sat down.
“Mom, next time you hit me, can you please not hit me on the face? I’m not pretty enough, and if my face gets swollen, it will be even uglier. I don’t even have a man as your daughter, and if you make me ugly, I won’t be able to get married and give birth to a daughter. Even if you kill Liberty and the others, you will have no successor.”
Clarissa said, “Stop joking with Mom.”
Kathryn replied, “I wasn’t joking. Mom, I was talking to you seriously.”
Clarissa inquired, “When did you wake up?”
Kathryn answered honestly, “When you were mumbling to me and crying. I woke up and pretended to be asleep. It was very difficult to pretend to be really asleep.”
Clarissa was speechless.
After staring at Kathryn for a while, Clarissa said angrily, “I did that for your own good! Even if it means losing my life, I can guarantee that the position of the head of the family will fall to you. The descendants of your aunt will never be able to compete with you!”

The readers' comments on the novel: Married at First Sight (Serenity and Zachary)
Don’t really like Evan & Abby story she lied and everyone is taking her side he can’t help he’s a little slow...
I don’t know if you all realize this but at the end of each chapter it asks for the number to be verified in box and you get more of the chapter. I just figured it out last week. Although chapter 4275 caption # was 5098 if kept rejecting that # when verified. I do to wish this was a completed book. But is this like a soap opera in some country? Anyway, I love that Tatum has told Elora that she is who he is persueing....
