Chapter 3688
Chapter 3688 â 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 matriarchâs death.
They believed where thereâs smoke, thereâs fire. Audrey hated Clarissa, thinking she was
responsible for her motherâs 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. Jimenezâs loyalty to the former
matriarch, tampered with her sisterâs car. Her sister, the previous matriarch, died in the accident.
Clarissa had even tried to kill her sisterâs 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.
Tonightâs 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 Clarissaâs cruelty.
No matter what happened to Clarissa tonight, they were determined to remove her from power.
They also wouldnât let Kathryn, Clarissaâs 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 Clarissaâs descendants.
âMrs. Farrell, sorry to bother you again. Weâre looking for Mr. Dunn,â a police officer said.
Clarissa coldly replied, âWhy are you always coming back? Last time, you suspected
Mr. Dunn had a gun, searched his house, and found nothing. Heâs my assistant, a lawabiding
citizen, not a criminal.â
The lead officer explained, âWe need to search his house again.â Clarissa was frustrated.
One of the Farrell family members spoke up, âOfficer, this woman killed her sister decades ago. We
have evidence and witnesses. She even threatened that none of us would leave alive tonight.â
Clarissa retorted, âOfficer, I was just angry and said some harsh words. I didnât actually do anything.
These people are here to cause trouble. I kindly invited them to dinner, and instead of entering the
house, theyâve been stirring up trouble in front of my family.â âOfficer, we have recordings,â 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, Clarissaâs phone rang. Seeing it was Mr. Dunn, she quickly answered.
On the other end, Mr. Dunn said, âMaâam, there are police outside my house. I canât get the gun or
gasoline we prepared. Somehow, everything was replaced with water. We couldnât get enough
gasoline in time.â
