Is the Clarke's family that wealty? How about MC's family? Was financial stability once of the reasons why MC's parents are happy that Jade is with Chris?
Yup, the Clarke's are very well off due to generational wealth. (Thanks to a combination of stocks/bonds, real estate and of course the family law firm.)
Clayton "Clay" Clarke (patriarch of the Clarke family) took over the family law firm in his early 20's and has run it successfully since. He expects the same from Chris and Kara. Which is why Chris currently works at the family law firm, gearing up for when they will one day take it over.
MC's family is middle class, and MC's father does have a small investment in stocks including those of Clay's. So financial stability is part of it, especially due to MC's mother's spending and their father's bad business ventures.
The families are close, they have been since MC and Cam were kids. Partly in thanks to Aunt Em, since she was Cam's nanny and she has a bit of history with Clay.
