Married At First Sight By Gu Lingfei

After a brief silence, Holden repeated himself. "You're not dead, just slightly injured. It's not that serious." Kathryn almost laughed at his words.

Sure, she wasn't dead-just "slightly injured."

She looked at Holden and asked, "Dad, if I had tried to kill your three sons but failed, leaving them just 'slightly injured,' would you tell them it was just a family dispute? Would you ask them to forgive me, not press charges, and not send me to prison?"

Holden responded instinctively, "You would have already shown the intent to kill. I couldn't let you make the same mistake again. Of course, I'd send you to prison for a few years... Kathryn, I'm old. I only have my three sons to rely on in my later years. Do you really want me to end up alone with no one to take care of me?"

Kathryn's voice turned ice-cold. "Dad, I'll cover your living expenses. You won't starve. Even the housekeeper can stay-I'll pay their wages. Believe me, I want nothing to do with you.

If you don't live long enough to see your sons get out of prison and you pass away, I'll make sure to arrange your funeral. I won't let your body rot and be eaten by stray dogs."
