Chapter 651: Funeral
“Yes, Mr Lisa,” Scarlet replied with a lowered head. Though she felt reluctant, she didn’t dare to argue at that
moment.
“Cecilia always listened to you since she was young. The way forward depended on your guidance.” Mr Lisa said.
“I will guide her well, Mr Lisa,” Scarlet assured.
Lisa was about to leave when he suddenly thought of something and stopped.
“Isa is my biological sister,” he said.
Upon hearing this, Scarlet felt even more uneasy.
“Don’t cause her any more trouble in the future,” Lisa added.
“Yes…” Scarlet hadn’t expected Mr Lisa to say such words. As she watched his figure walking away, her anger grew.
Who was causing trouble for whom?
The thought of making Miss Cecilia apologize to Isabella the next day filled Scarlet with intense anger and
heartache.
The next morning.
Isabella discovered a message she had received from Silvia–Freda’s mother, the previous night.
“Isa, thank you for doing everything you could to save Freda. Today was her funeral. Did you come?” Silvia asked.
“Yes,” Isabella quickly replied.
“Freda liked you a lot when she was alive. I believe she would have been pleased to have you accompany her on
her final journey,” Silvia expressed.
Isabella thought of replying with just one word, “Condolences.” But the loss of a beloved daughter could not be
comforted with just two simple words.
Instead, she replied, “I arrived shortly.”
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtFreda’s funeral was about to take place in the Heilig Family Cemetery. According to the geomancer, the best time
for the burial was ten o’clock in the morning, considering the excellent location of the Heilig Family and the date of
the deceased’s birth, ensuring her future prosperity and carefree life.
Therefore, the funeral had to be hastily arranged.
Despite the time constraint, through orderly preparations, the venue was grand and majestic, with many people
attending the funeral.
When Isabella and Benjamin arrived, they saw a sea of mourners dressed in black, demonstrating the extensive
network of the Heilig Family.
Flowers and elegiac couplets surrounded the entire cemetery outside the Heilig Family Cemetery like blooming
blossoms.
The Heilig Family members, dressed in black formal attire, including distant and close relatives, were now in front of
the memorial hall. weeping uncontrollably, deeply immersed in grief.
After presenting the flowers, Benjamin and Isabella approached the open- air memorial hall and bowed to Freda.
They were naturally beautiful, and standing side by side attracted even more attention.
After Isabella finished bowing, she looked at the black-and-white image of Freda and the coffin placed beneath it,
recalling Freda’s cheerful and lively demeanour when they first met.
Isabella also felt sorrowful, with the Heilig Family members crying in her ears as if she relived the pain of losing Old
Madam Brown.
The Heilig Family members bowed to each person who came to pay respects. Despite their tearful appearance, Tel
and Silvia, who were leading the ceremony, still bent down to thank Benjamin and Isabella for their presence.
“Benjamin, thank you for coming…” Tel hugged Benjamin but couldn’t hold back his tears.
“My condolences,” Benjamin patted his back to console him.
Tel’s grief became even more overwhelming. The feeling of the sky collapsing after losing a daughter was agonizing
and devastating.
“The way you all were grieving will worry Freda…” Isabella hugged Silvia and said, “Freda’s biggest concern before
she left must have been all of you.”
Silvia cried inconsolably, “I knew… but I couldn’t calm down… I only had one daughter… Why did fate cruelly take
her away? What was I supposed to do in the remaining years of my life?”
Her sobbing voice intensified the sadness of the other Heilig Family members.
“I understand, I do.” Isabella patted Silvia’s back. She had experienced these feelings, like falling into a deep sea
with no hope of rescue, even desperate enough to close her eyes and sink to the bottom.
“I miss Freda so much. I wish she could talk to me. She was my only daughter, growing from a helpless baby to a
beautiful young lady. I had imagined countless possibilities for Freda’s future, but I never imagined she would die in
such a tragic way.”
Silvia’s sorrowful cries caused tears to flow from the eyes of the surrounding relatives and mourners. They had
never expected such a bright future for the girl to be struck by such a disaster.
At that moment, a commotion broke out among the crowd, and Silvia looked up through her tears to see a path
being cleared. Dressed in a black suit, Mathew walked into the memorial hall with red eyes.
Silvia became instantly agitated. “What are you doing here? The Heilig Family didn’t invite you. Leave, get out!”
“Silvia…” Isabella wanted to say something to Mathew.
But Silvia interrupted her, saying, “You saved Freda, and she liked you when she was alive. I do not object to you
representing the Logan family, but he cannot set foot here! Guards!”
“Silvia, I want to see Freda,” Mathew said.
Mathew knew Silvia and Tel already hated him to the extreme, but he had to bid Freda farewell on her final journey.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmFreda died while trying to save Nora, her adoptive parents. How could he live with himself if he didn’t come?
“Leave! Get out!” Tel, with teary eyes, approached Mathew and pushed him away. “You are not welcome here. You
know very well why Freda is lying here! Get lost!”
Why did he have to come and stir up their emotions…
They had lost their only daughter, and the second half of their lives was destined to be lonely and desolate….
Why did Mathew have to appear and add insult to injury…
“Take your things and leave!” Tel harshly threw the flowers Mathew had brought for Freda at him.
At that moment, a bone-chilling wind whistled through, and delicate snowflakes began to fall from the sky…
Silvia’s eyes reddened even more as she looked up at the snowflakes. Was it Freda coming back?
Freda loved snow so much…
Because they treated Mathew this way, she must have manifested herself, hoping they would show mercy…
“Freda would want Mathew to be here for her final journey,” Isabella said. “Tel and Silvia, let Mathew bid farewell to
Freda, please?”
Tel and Silvia couldn’t control their tears anymore.
Mathew bowed his head and nodded at them, then took slow steps toward the memorial image.
The girl’s radiant smile and bright eyes were still vivid in his mind, but she had experienced inhuman torture during
her short life…
Tears welled in Mathew’s eyes as he offered the flowers and bowed deeply to the image.
Another gust of wind blew, and pure white snowflakes fell onto Mathew’s shoulders as if invisible hands gently
comforted him.
Tel and Silvia broke down in tears. Freda must have manifested herself. she saw this man coming to bid her
farewell, and the wind was her response….
As Mathew bowed to the Heilig Family members, Tel and Silvia finally returned the gesture.
Isabella’s eyes glistened with tears.
