Chapter 3669
The butler asked, “Ma’am, didn’t you invite the reporters?” Why were all these reporters at theFarrell mansion if Clarissa hadn’t invited them? There was no major news about the Farrell family. Clarissa quickly realized who was behind it. It wasn’t her, and Kathryn had been knocked out andsent away from Jensburg. Her husband and sons wouldn’t dare. The only one left was Audrey, herdear niece. “Go tell the reporters that the Farrell family is having a private dinner tonight and they’re not invited.Ask them to leave politely and give them each a small gift.” A little kindness might prevent the reporters from making up stories or writing falsehoods. Many reporters these days tend to exaggerate for clicks or write things without fully understandingthe facts. The Farrell family’s reputation hadn’t been great lately, and upsetting the media could leadto even more negative press. The butler followed her instructions immediately, but soon returned with a troubled look. “Ma’am, the reporters said it was Ms. Audrey who invited them. They’re claiming that tonight, they’llreveal the truth about the death of the previous matriarch, and that the killer has been identified.They’re even saying the police will arrest the murderer tonight.” Clarissa’s expression darkened. Audrey was trying to destroy her in Jensburg. “Ma’am, should weforce them to leave? They’re blocking the door, and it’s causing a scene.” Clarissa didn’t respond right away. She paced back and forth in the hall for a few minutes beforestopping and saying, “Since Audrey invited them, let them wait outside. When she arrives, she canhandle it. I didn’t invite them, and I’m not going to get involved.” The butler asked, “Should we offer them anything?” Clarissa glared. “Why would we? I said Audreyinvited them, so she can deal with them. It’s none of my business. This is still my house, and I wantto see what Audrey thinks qualifies her to host here.” “Understood,” the butler replied, knowing exactly how to treat the reporters. If they wanted to wait outside, let them. It was cold and windy, and if they didn’t mind freezing, theycould stay as long as they liked. Clarissa had made it clear—no hospitality. They wouldn’t be invitedinside to sit. Let’s see how long they last in the cold.
After the butler left, Clarissa sat on the sofa, thinking for a while. She then called Mr. Dunn. Whenhe answered, she asked, “Has Kathryn left Jensburg?” “Yes, Ma’am. She was sent away earlier today. It’s nearly dark, and she’s already reached thelocation you arranged.” Clarissa sighed in relief, knowing her daughter was safely out of Jensburg this time. She then said,“Audrey wants to ruin my name, so she called the reporters. Once it’s dark, we’ll move forward withour final plan. Bring out all the hidden guns. If anyone tries to escape, shoot them.” “What about you, sir and the Young masters?” Mr. Dunn asked. “We’re waiting on your final call.Hopefully, we won’t need to use that plan.”
