Holden continued, “Now that we see you are fine, we are relieved. From now on, when your mother asks you to eat or drink, don’t touch anything. She is a very vicious person. She even harmed her own sister who raised her. She only loves herself. As long as you obey her, she’ll show some motherly love. But if you go against her, she’ll be ruthless.”
Holden criticized Clarissa in front of his children, though what he said was true. Clarissa was selfish and only cared about herself.
“Dad, I’m fine. You and my brothers can go back. Dad, take care of your health and don’t bother Mom unless necessary,” Kathryn said.
She knew her parents were now her enemies. They stayed together because they were too old to divorce, and Holden didn’t want to give up the benefits the Farrell family brought to the Janzen family.
Holden felt he had sacrificed his marriage and freedom for his family’s benefits and didn’t want to lose everything in his old age. So, this was how the old couple lived.
“I know. I won’t bother her even if I need something. She’s a crazy woman. Her beloved man is back, and she doesn’t care about me anymore,” Holden said sourly.
“Dad!” Kathryn called out seriously.
Holden stopped talking.
After a few minutes of silence, he said, “Kathryn, I made some nourishing soup for you. Drink it while it’s hot. It’s cold today, so keep warm and wear extra layers.”
