Love at First Novel by Gu Lingfei

— Kathryn believed that everything in the Farrell family belonged to Audrey and the others and should be returned to them.

She didnt consider her mother's perspective at all.

Fortunately, Kathryn was the matriarch’s biological daughter; otherwise, she would have been gone long ago.

After sending Kathryn away, Clarissa felt relieved.

If she lived to see another day, she would send someone to bring her daughter back.

Even though she couldn't see Kathryn, at least her life was spared.

Among Clarissa’s four children, only Kathryn wasn't married and didnt have children.

The three sons all had families, and their wives had already taken the children back to Holden’s hometown for the New Year, following his arrangements.
