They were well aware of how strong Darren was. He could fend all three of them off one-handed.Darren was also fiercely loyal to Caroline. If they dared to lay a finger on Caroline, even if they ran away to the ends of the earth, Darren had the ability to track them down and avenge her.He was unwaveringly loyal just like Mr. Gordon, who had been devoted to Belinda his whole life. When she passed away, Mr. Gordon followed soon after. Truly, not even death could part them.Jason was dragged away by Adrian, still muttering curses under his breath. After the Clark brothers left, the meeting room became so quiet that one could hear a pin drop. Caroline looked around the room and asked, “Does anyone else have anything to say?”Everyone glanced around at each other. One of the executives of the company took the lead and said, “We’re merely employees of Fisher Enterprise, not members of the Fisher family. Family affairs are beyond our scope.”The elders of the family, recognizing th
Liberty liked people who got things done. As for the senior executives present, it was unclear what they were thinking, but those who liked to bootlick and had no real skills were certainly nervous inside.When a new official took office, they often would make changes. Liberty, as the new head, would certainly make her own impact that definitely entailed even more than just a few changes, possibly a dozen.After all, Fisher Enterprise was the property of the Fisher family. It was not publicly listed, and 100% of the shares belonged to the family, with the head of the family controlling everything. Thus, the matriarch held absolute authority in the company. In the past, the elders of the family could still intervene in the company affairs, but after Belinda took over, she gradually sidelined the elders. Those who were capable of opposing her were secretly harmed and even killed, while the remaining elders lacked the courage and ability to challenge her.Hence, now, the CEO held ab
Then there was her mother, who had committed countless evil deeds. It was likely that Liberty and the others would not pay respects to Belinda, as she was an enemy of Liberty’s branch of the family. No matter how magnanimous Liberty was, she would not go as far as to visit the grave of her enemy. Therefore, Caroline needed to come back herself to pay respects to her mother, to ensure that her mother’s grave would not be neglected. This was her duty as a daughter. Her mother had committed many sins, but she was still her mother.“Anyway, I’ll also be back to attend your wedding to Mr. Lewis. Technically, I’m still your elder.”Caroline smiled as she extended her belated blessings. “Liberty, I wish you and Mr. Lewis a lifetime of happiness. Mr. Lewis loves you dearly. You two will definitely be very happy together.”Duncan was such an outstanding person in his own right but was willing to marry into the Fisher family for Liberty. This truly broke the previous streak of the matri
Duncan had been so insistent on marrying no one but Liberty that his current temporary cripple was the result of his conflict with his parents. He had sacrificed his legs in exchange for their consent, but who knew whether his parents truly accepted Liberty or were just pretending to?“They’re very good to me, and they’ve accepted Sonny. It’s not that they don’t want to take care of him—, it’s Sonny who wants to stay with Seren.” Liberty explained, "My in-laws tried to persuade Sonny to stay with them for several days, but they didn’t manage to.“Ever since Sonny was born, it’s mostly been Seren looking after him. During the most difficult times, Seren helped me a lot too, so when I’m not home, Sonny prefers to be with her. No matter how good others are to him, he still chooses to stay with her.”Duncan loved Sonny like his own child, but if Liberty was not in Wiltspoon, Sonny would not want to stay with Duncan. He preferred to stay with his aunt.“That’s good, then.”As long as
“I’ll still try my best to convince them to leave. One of these days, I’ll go meet my father and my two sisters-in-law, and get them to try to persuade my brothers. If they still refuse to listen, then there’s nothing else I can do.”“You should do whatever you think is right. I’ll leave them alone as long as they don’t appear before me.”It was not that Caroline did not care about her brothers; it was them who did not value the relationship. What else could she do? Liberty said, “I’m not the kind of person who would harm the innocent. As long as they stay honest and don’t get involved in any schemes or underhanded tactics, and leave Jensburg for the Clark hometown, I’ll only take half of what they currently have.” She would leave half of the assets for Adrian and the others. They would not starve, and this way, she was still showing Caroline some respect.“They won’t give up easily. They’ll still try to make trouble. You taking only half of their assets is already showing mer
At the sound of a car, Hunter, who was sitting in the yard basking in the sun, instructed the helper who was taking care of him, “Go outside and see if the young master is back.”The helper went out. Soon, Hunter saw his three sons walking toward him one after another.Seeing this, Hunter could not help but furrowed his brow, feeling a headache coming on as he pinched the space between his brows. He suddenly understood why his late wife would become so impatient and frustrated with their sons—they were really troublesome.He had tried to reason with them, advising them to preserve their strength, to stop hoping to stay on at Fisher Enterprise, and to return here where they could still live well, but they simply refused to listen.When they accompanied him back to Ashford during Christmas, he thought they had come to their senses, but when the new year started and Fisher Enterprise resumed operations, they eagerly hurried back.It made Hunter so angry that he scolded them at home f
The older generation of the Fisher family had indeed accepted the gifts sent by the Clark brothers. They felt that they had been mistreated by Belinda, so they viewed the benefits given by Belinda’s sons as compensation from her. However, they had not agreed to do what the Clark brothers wanted—to solicit their support. Without concrete evidence, what could the Clark brothers do to them? Besides, it was quite normal for juniors to give their elders gifts during the holiday season, was it not?Hunter could not help but slap his son’s arm. He scolded, “How many times have I told you, and you still won’t listen? My words just go in one ear and out the other.“Though you lot and Caroline are siblings, you’re still Clarks, not Fishers. The Fisher family’s rules have been in place for over a hundred years and won’t change just because of you. If they could change, it would have happened long ago. Do you really think it would have taken this long?“Those old fogies are from the Fisher fa
Moreover, Patrick was still alive, and he had been Tiara’s assistant. Plus, the crime of Belinda killing her sisters to rise to power had been exposed to the world and no matter how one thought about it, it was impossible for Belinda's children to take over the position.“Dad, I just can’t accept it! I just don’t agree! Even if I can’t get the position of the head of the family, Liberty can forget about taking away our positions in Fisher Enterprise!“And if Caroline doesn’t divide the huge fortune left by Mom with us, she can forget about taking it all. If worse comes to worst, I’ll go down with her. If I die, my children can inherit Mom’s fortune, but Caroline’s unmarried and childless! She stands to lose the most if she dies.”Adrian stood up and turned to leave once he finished speaking. It was clear he did not want to continue the conversation with his father and did not want to listen to his advice.Justin and Jason looked at each other, then at their father, who was tremblin

What Belinda actually cared about the most was the Fisher family. She did not want her family to disappear from the circle of aristocratic and wealthy families in Jensburg, so even though Celine was not all that capable, Belinda still devoted herself to nurturing her. It was not until she found out that Celine was not her biological daughter and the two swapped children returned to their rightful places that she gradually recognized Caroline's abilities. Only then did she understand why the family rules had been set up that way—Caroline really was far more capable than Celine.The only regret she had was that Caroline did not grow up by her side, so their values and opinions were different. Before her death, Belinda already knew that Caroline did not want to take over the Fisher family, but had no choice but to do so. When the truth came to light, Caroline was the one who felt the most relieved because it meant she no longer had to take over the family business and could return ev
