Chapter 3688 Chapter 3688 – Since it was just rumors without solid evidence, people could only gossip about it in private. Later, Clarissa clashed with Audrey, the eldest daughter of the former matriarch. Though they were aunt and niece, they were more like enemies. Audrey even sent her niece Liberty to Jensburg to start a business and compete with the Farrell family. The Farrell clan suspected that Clarissa had something to do with the former matriarch’s death. They believed where there’s smoke, there’s fire. Audrey hated Clarissa, thinking she was responsible for her mother’s death, and sent Liberty to challenge Kathryn for the position of the next matriarch. Tonight, they finally got the truth: Clarissa did kill the former matriarch. Clarissa, driven by her desire for power and jealousy of Mr. Jimenez’s loyalty to the former matriarch, tampered with her sister’s car. Her sister, the previous matriarch, died in the accident. Clarissa had even tried to kill her sister’s young daughters. Fortunately, their nanny protected them and managed to escape with them, though she later died. The children disappeared for decades, but they were eventually found. The truth had come to light. Tonight’s family dinner had been a trap set by Clarissa. She invited all the powerful clan members with the intent to kill them. She wanted to eliminate them all in one go. As they realized this, the Farrell clan members were horrified by Clarissa’s cruelty. No matter what happened to Clarissa tonight, they were determined to remove her from power. They also wouldn’t let Kathryn, Clarissa’s daughter, take over. The position of matriarch should go to Audrey, or if she refused, to Liberty. In any case, it had to stay in the family of the former matriarch, not Clarissa’s descendants. “Mrs. Farrell, sorry to bother you again. We’re looking for Mr. Dunn,” a police officer said. Clarissa coldly replied, “Why are you always coming back? Last time, you suspected
Mr. Dunn had a gun, searched his house, and found nothing. He’s my assistant, a lawabiding citizen, not a criminal.” The lead officer explained, “We need to search his house again.” Clarissa was frustrated. One of the Farrell family members spoke up, “Officer, this woman killed her sister decades ago. We have evidence and witnesses. She even threatened that none of us would leave alive tonight.” Clarissa retorted, “Officer, I was just angry and said some harsh words. I didn’t actually do anything. These people are here to cause trouble. I kindly invited them to dinner, and instead of entering the house, they’ve been stirring up trouble in front of my family.” “Officer, we have recordings,” one of the clan members added, eager to use the police to take down Clarissa and prevent her from seeking revenge later. At that moment, Clarissa’s phone rang. Seeing it was Mr. Dunn, she quickly answered. On the other end, Mr. Dunn said, “Ma’am, there are police outside my house. I can’t get the gun or gasoline we prepared. Somehow, everything was replaced with water. We couldn’t get enough gasoline in time.” Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.
