Serenity and Zachary York novel Chapter 3370

“Those families are in Wiltspoon and have few businesses in Jensburg. They can’t interfere in our family affairs.

“So what if Liberty is Aunt Tiara’s descendant? Aunt Tiara has been dead for decades. The current matriarch is our mom. Returning the position to Aunt Tiara’s descendants is understandable only if you are incapable. Since you’re competent, why should we surrender the position to them?”

Adrian added, “Is Liberty even capable? Her establishing a company in Jensburg doesn’t mean anything. No one in our family is close to her. They didn’t even take you seriously when you first returned, let alone her.

“While many family members are dissatisfied with Mom, they can’t do anything about it.”

He then muttered softly, “Maybe Liberty is destined to have a short life like Aunt Tiara and dies when she’s middle-aged.”

His hiring someone to hit Liberty with a car was unsuccessful.

To circumvent this, he had sent two cars, yet the mission still failed.

“What did you say?”

Caroline asked icily, “Are you saying Liberty will live a short life? Can you predict the future? Or did you do something behind our backs?”

Adrian immediately said, “It’s nothing. Who said I did something to Liberty? She has bodyguards with her wherever she goes. I can’t even approach her. How can I possibly do anything to her?”

Guilt crept in and he feared Caroline would catch on to something.

He would be exposed if her suspicion arose and she asked Darren to investigate him.

Adrian’s connections and influence were weaker compared to Caroline’s.

After Caroline’s reminder and warning, she took her phone back and said, “You can go back to work.”

Adrian was mentally scolding his sister.

However, his smile remained on his face and he said, “How could I have done something behind your back? I’m a middle-aged man, not a reckless young boy. What trouble can I possibly cause?

“I’ve never bothered Liberty. And why should I? I know she has three strong families supporting her.

“I think you should view her as your enemy, not us. After all, Liberty is aiming to be the matriarch. Meanwhile, as the heir, you’re expected to be the next matriarch.

“But why should I care if you and Liberty are competitors? I can’t even help you out even if I want to. Your connections and influence are superior to mine now.”
