Chapter 3643


    Kathryn nced at the fallen bodyguards and said,


    “Just keep an eye on them. Don’t harm them.”


    “I’ve already given the order,” Pedro replied respectfully.


    Kathryn nodded and quickly got into Pedro’s car. He drove her away.


    On their way back to Jensburg, Pedro informed Kathryn, “Madam Farrell had this n for a while.


    She asked Mr. Dunn to arrange a stand-in for you in advance. That stand-in is now at the Farrell


    family mansion in your ce.”


    Kathryn rubbed the back of her neck. “I figured my mother would do something like this.” So she


    had prepared as well.


    When rissa suggested a walk, Kathryn hadn’t resisted, allowing her mother to believe her n


    had seeded. This way, Kathryn could operate in secret once she returned to Jensburg.


    “My mother may be old, but she’s still strong. My neck still hurts,” Kathryn remarked.


    Pedro, still driving, added, “Madam Farrell practiced martial arts. Even at her age, she’s stronger


    than most. You haven’t trained, so it makes sense you feel the difference.”


    Kathryn sighed. “My adoptive parents were never kind to me. They didn’t want me to study, let alone


    learn martial arts. They raised me just to sell me off for money.”


    Though they raised her, their intentions were selfish. If they hadn’t been so cruel, she wouldn’t have


    suffered as she did. She felt no attachment to her biological parents.


    Kathryn wasn’t abandoned. If she had been, perhaps someone else would have raised her, even if


    not perfectly. But her adoptive parents had deliberately swapped her at birth so their daughter could


    live in the Farrell family and eventually lead it.


    While Shiloh enjoyed a privileged life with the Farrells, receiving the best education and everything


    she desired, Kathryn endured a life of hardship. Shecked even basic necessities, let alone


    luxuries.


    In contrast to Shiloh, Kathryn only harbored resentment toward her adoptive parents. They had


    ruined the first twenty years of her life.


    “They faced their punishment too,” Kathryn noted.  N?velDrama.Org is the owner.


    Pedro encouraged, “Things will get better from here. Let’s focus on the future.”


    Kathryn nodded. “I’m done thinking about them. They wouldn’t dare approach me now, especially


    after Shiloh’s death.”


    rissa was not someone to cross. The fact that Kathryn’s adoptive parents were still alive was


    fortunate enough. While rissa had only punished the former butler, Shiloh’s biological family was


    also suffering. asionally, they would ask Kathryn for money, but they never received any.


    Shiloh’s death had shaken them, and they no longer dared to approach the Farrell family, fearing for


    their lives.


    Kathryn sighed, “Mr. Fraser, I’m going to take a nap. I didn’t sleepst night, and I have a terrible


    headache and neck pain.”


    Pedro, concerned, replied, “Go ahead and rest. I’ll wake you when we arrive.”


    He hadn’t slept much either, just an hour or two. But he had downed two cups of coffee before


    heading out, so he was alert enough to drive her back to Jensburg.


    Kathryn leaned against the car seat and quickly fell asleep. She had spent the previous night


    tossing and turning, unable to rest.
