Meanwhile, at the Farrell family mansion, the atmosphere had been tense, with a particularly low air pressure. Everyone moved cautiously, not daring to make noise for fear of angering Clarissa.
Clarissa hadn't returned to the company, staying at hinstead. Sometimes she sat on the sofa in a daze; other times, she stayed in the study all day. The butler brought her meals to the study, but she ate very little. He wanted to persuade her but didn't dare.
It was known that every tMr. Dunn visited, Clarissa's expression becmore solemn. Sfamily members had been causing trouble lately, and Clarissa either ignored them or scolded them harshly, even having bodyguards teach them a lesson. This rough handling made her even more unpopular, deepening the resentment.
Mr. Dunn arrived again, and the butler invited him in, watching him go upstairs as if he owned the place. The butler sighed inwardly.

Mr. Dunn went straight to the study, knocked on the door, and entered after Clarissa responded. Clarissa was practicing calligraphy.
Mr. Dunn observed her writing, "What are you working on?"
Clarissa replied, "My calligraphy."
"Madam, you're distracted, and it shows in your writing. You should stop and not waste the pen and ink."
Mr. Dunn was the only one who could speak so frankly to Clarissa, and he was right. Clarissa was restless, her thoughts elsewhere. Her calligraphy was poor, wasting materials.
Clarissa's face darkened, and she made a mistake with the last word. Frustrated, she threw the brush on the table, ruining a piece that took a long tto write. Mr. Dunn handed her a tissue to wipe her hands and cleaned up the mess. After a while, Clarissa sat on the sofa.
After tidying up, Mr. Dunn asked, "What's the current situation?"
"The eldest young master of the York family is here. He arrived not long ago and is going to the hospital to visit the young lady."
Clarissa was silent, then sarcastically said, "She betrayed her biological mother in exchange for someone else's visit. Is it worth it? No matter how many bad things I've done, I am still her mother. Can't she put aside morals and side with me? If it weren't for her tip-off, our plan wouldn't have failed. When I see her, I want to strangle her."

Mr. Dunn knew Clarissa was harsh with everyone but could never be harsh with her only biological daughter. If the three young masters had done such a thing, they'd be dead by now. But the young lady was fine, only slapped twice by Shiloh.
Compared to losing her life, being slapped twice was nothing.
Mr. Dunn sighed, "The young lady's values are set. It's difficult to change them. Ma'am, if you want to succeed, eithen put the young lady and Pedro under house arrest or let the young lady continue to sleep, though that's unlikely. Now, the young lady is guarding against you." Clarissa wanted to kill Kathryn, but she was her only daughter. If she had another daughter, she wouldn't tolerate Kathryn's betrayal.
"Is the gasoline ready?" Clarissa asked.
Mr. Dunn replied, "Yes, we are prepared. We're waiting for Audrey and the others to cand confront N you. When everyone is together, we can execute the plan." Clarissa's eyes turned cold. "When Audrey brings him here to confront me, ensure Kathryn and Pedro do not appear."
She wanted to die with Audrey and the others, along with her enemies in the Farrell family she just wanted to save her only daughter, Kathryn, and Pedro, as Kathryn needed him.
