Seeing Holden’s appearance, the three young masters of the Farrell family saw that everyone was afraid to express their anger.
Matriarch Farrell was sitting on the sofa, smoking a cigarette, not looking at Holden, who was kneeling at the keyboard, crying
with tears and a runny nose.
Everyone was standing, and no one dared to speak.
Even Shiloh, whom Matriarch Farrell loved most, did not dare say a word at this moment.
The eldest Young Master Farrell, Marco, gently walked to his wife Erika’s side and asked in a low voice, “What’s going on, Dad?
Who beat him like this?”
Erika replied in a low voice, “He was beaten by mom. Didn’t you see that dad was still kneeling on the keyboard?”
After a pause, she turned her head to look at her husband, her voice lowered, but with a hint of schadenfreude, “Dad cheated,
and Mom caught him read-handed, and she beat that girl half to death.”
Hearing this, Marco’s expression changed drastically. He thought about his cheating.
Although his parents had known about it for a long time and had always turned a blind eye to the matter, his father’s cheating
was a big deal and would implicate them as sons, especially since they as sons had also made such a mistake.
Marco no longer dared to ask questions. He was standing silently beside Erika.
“mom.”
Kathryn broke the silence in the room. She looked at Holden, who had been beaten until his face was bruised and his nose was
swollen, and he no longer looked like a handsome old man. Then she looked at Matriarch Farrell, whose face was ashen, and
said, “Mom, why did you call us all back? Dad, what’s wrong? Dad, who beat you like this? Did you fight with someone else?”
“Kathryn, I did something wrong, but I know it was wrong. Please help me to beg your mother for mercy. I promise that I will
never do it again in the future.”
Seeing that someone finally spoke, Holden quickly asked Kathryn to plead for him.
Kathryn said, “Dad, what mistake have you made? You have to tell me where you went wrong, so I can decide whether to
intercede for you or not. Did you get into a fight? Dad, you know that you are not so young and energetic; why are you still so
impulsive and fighting with others?
If you win, we have to compensate others for their medical expenses. If you lose, we have to help you pay for your medical
expenses. There is no benefit at all. Look at how embarrassed you are now. I think you have lost the battle.”
Kathryn pretended not to know about Holden’s mistake. Anyway, she had just come back and just entered the house, so it was
normal to pretend not to know.
Shiloh didn’t dare to say a word.
Holden has been asking Shiloh for money recently. Kathryn has frozen both the credit card that Matriarch Farrell gave her and
the bank card she used to receive pocket money.
She could only spend her personal savings. Holden always asked her for money, and she also took money from her personal
savings to give to Holden. She had already given a lot.
This was her way of honoring Holden. She didn’t expect that Holden had the same virtues as her three brothers. He would go out
to play with women and steal food when he had money, and Matriarch Farrell would occasionally catch him. Holden was unlucky.
She probably wouldn’t fare well either.
Because Holden’s cheating funds were part of her filial piety.
Erika said, “Kathryn, Dad was in a fight. He was just fighting on the bed with someone. Mom caught him. The paint on Dad’s
body was mom’s handiwork.”
Hearing this, Kathryn looked at Holden in surprise.
