Love at First Novel by Gu Lingfei

Even if Clarissa were to die, she intended to secure her fortune before going.

This plan had a higher chance of success. Audrey and the others would try to escape, but unless they made it to the rooftop where a helicopter might be waiting, they wouldn’t be able to get away. And to make sure of that, Clarissa planned to have the door to the rooftop welded shut so they couldn’t escape.

Mr. Dunn was quiet for a moment before reminding Clarissa, “If that happens, the young lady may refuse to take over as head of the family. If she declines, the head of the family will have died in vain. Without a successor, the position could fall into someone else’s hands.”

Without hesitation, Clarissa replied, “If it comes to that, Kathryn will take over. She may be harsh, but she won’t let it all slip away. Besides, the people from Wiltspoon won’t all come together. Serenity won’t come, and even Elisa might not show up. They’re focused on grooming Liberty to take over.”

Serenity and Liberty still have heirs, so it would be a matter of whose descendants would take over.

Clarissa was confident Kathryn could come out on top.

Kathryn had been working with her for two years, gaining experience in running the Farrell Group and the Farrell family. She was more seasoned than Serenity and Elisa.

Clarissa also knew that Elisa wasn’t interested in taking over. Her personality wasn’t suited for leadership.
