Love at First Novel by Gu Lingfei

The three brothers looked upset.

Kathryn could tell from their faces that they hadn't listened to a word she said.

They didn't have the same willingness as Kathryn to return the Farrell family’s wealth to her aunt’s descendants.

Maybe it was because Kathryn hadn't grown up in the Farrell family—she'd only lived with them for a few years, and her relatives hadn't treated her kindly.

That made it easier for her to give back what wasn't truly hers.

But her brothers were different.

They had grown up in the Farrell family, enjoying all the wealth and privilege that came with being the sons of the family, even though the tradition was to pass everything down to daughters.

Thanks to their mother’s position as head of the family, they still received plenty.

They'd lived in that world of wealth and status for decades.

Letting go of all they had known was too hard for them.
