It wasn't that their mother didn't love her three sons. Kathryn had made sure they received the best education, arranged prestigious jobs for them, bought them houses and cars, and even matched them with wives of equal status.

She did everything a mother was supposed to do.

There was no doubt their mother loved them. But when it came to dividing her estate, the three sons received far less than their children.

Clarissa had left most of her wealth to her grandchildren.

She believed they had their whole lives ahead of them and needed a stronger financial foundation. Her sons, on the other hand, spent lavishly on alcohol and women, made reckless business investments, and showered mistresses with money without a second thought.

Even when faced with their infidelities, Clarissa had still chosen to stand by them. She coaxed and persuaded their wives not to leave, unwilling to see their marriages fall apart.

But deep down, she resented her sons couldn't t control their urges, just like their father.

Holden had been kept in check for years, too afraid to act on his desires. But the moment he had the chance, he followed in his brothers' footsteps.

Clarissa had personally intervened to drive their mistresses out of Jensburg.
