Marco snapped at Kathryn, "Kathryn, have you ever thought about us? We''re your brothers. Even if we didn''t always treat you well before, we never actually did anything harmful to you, did we? Can''t you think about the family bond we share? You''re making the Farrell family give up everything. What are we supposed to do now? We have no ce in thepany. Do you really think we stand a chance if Liberty takes over? She doesn''t need to use force to get rid of us; all she has to do is push us out of thepany. If word gets out, anyone who works with us or does business with us will automatically be seen as her enemy. She has the support of the three major families in Wiltspoon and is close with the Queen family in Jensburg. Who''s going to take the risk of working with your brothers then? You can take care of yourself, but we aren''t as capable. We have families to support. Our kids need to go to school, which is expensive, and when they grow up, they''ll need money to buy houses and get married. All of this costs a lot. You''re only worried about your reputation, not about us. What good is a spotless reputation if it doesn''t put food on the table?" Kathryn calmly sat back down across from her brothers, her expression unchanged. "If there''s more to say, go ahead. I''m listening," she said. But in truth, she wouldn''t listen to them. Even when her mother was alive, Kathryn didn''t let anyone sway her choices. Her mother, who truly loved and cared for her, couldn''t change her mind back then, and her father and brothers certainly wouldn''t now. She never told her brothers that her mother had once hinted that it was up to Kathryn to handle them after her passing. As a mother, she could never bepletely harsh with her sons, no matter what they did.


    Kathryn wasn''t heartless either. She was still willing to think about their family ties as long as they didn''t cross the line. But if they pushed too far, she wouldn''t hesitate to stand up to them.


    Marco, frustrated, pointed at Kathryn and shouted, "Kathryn, what''s with your attitude? We''ve been talking for your sake, for the sake of all of us, and you act like it doesn''t matter! I know you don''t see us as your brothers, but the Farrell family is what Mom built over decades. It''s her legacy.


    As her children, it''s our duty to protect everything she left us, not just hand it away to someone else.Content is property ? N?velDrama.Org.


    You''re giving up things that others would fight tooth and nail to get. Are you out of your mind, or are you deliberately trying to make our lives difficult?


    Sure, you''ve got Pedro by your side, and you''ll be fine without the Farrell family. You''re not married, have no kids, and no real responsibilities, but what about us?


    And why haven''t you done anything about Audrey? She banned us froming home, and you said nothing. You know your words carry more weight than hers now. Mom''s antiques and jewelry are still at the mansion. Those belong to all of us, not just you. You have to make sure we get our share!" Despite Marco''s angry outburst, Kathryn continued to sip her coffee calmly, letting him rant without reacting.


    Her cool demeanor only made Marco and the other brothers even angrier.
