Married at First Sight novel (Serenity and Zachary York)

Meanwhile, at the Farrell family mansion, the atmosphere had been tense, with a particularly low air pressure. Everyone moved cautiously, not daring to make noise for fear of angering Clarissa.

Clarissa hadn’t returned to the company, staying at home instead. Sometimes she sat on the sofa in a daze; other times, she stayed in the study all day. The butler brought her meals to the study, but she ate very little. He wanted to persuade her but didn’t dare.

It was known that every time Mr. Dunn visited, Clarissa’s expression became more solemn. Some family members had been causing trouble lately, and Clarissa either ignored them or scolded them harshly, even having bodyguards teach them a lesson. This rough handling made her even more unpopular, deepening the resentment.

Mr. Dunn arrived again, and the butler invited him in, watching him go upstairs as if he owned the place. The butler sighed inwardly.

Holden, Clarissa’s husband, didn’t have such freedom, even though they had children together. Clarissa trusted Mr. Dunn more; he was her lifelong assistant. Holden had lost his status in Clarissa’s eyes due to his affair. If not for the children, they might have divorced.
