Chapter 684
Jace’s funeral was on a rainy day. It started to rain in the morning and did not stop. Grandpa Yuriel lived a low-profile life for most of his life, but he made an exception and held a grand funeral for his only grandson. The funeral took place in Nadeem City. More than thirty thousand employees of the Yuriel Group, business partners, family, and friends came to pay their respect with wreaths and tributes.
The Yuriel Group cemetery was filled with black umbrellas and black cars.
Many media under the umbrella held a camera to record all this. They looked at all the familiar big names in the business world who attended the funeral in suits and sighed. The event was exceptionally grand.
“The funeral is just a formality, but it’s so grand. His life is worth it.” 1
A photographer could not help but say, “I feel that when I die, I might not even be able to gather a fleet of cars to attend my funeral. If I really die of overwork one day, you must come to my funeral.” “Hey, hey, hey! Why are you cursing yourself like that?” Another reporter glared at him, “Besides, Mister Jace’s had an honorable death. The higher ups have issued a statement of condolence. He deserves this grand funeral. I admire him.”
“Alas, if I’m as rich as him, I wouldn’t want to die. How comfortable it is to eat, drink, play while living and enjoying your life.” “I know, right? Say, Mister Jace is unmarried and childless. Who will inherit the vast fortune of his?”
“How is he unmarried? He has divorced once! Didn’t he hold a wedding after his divorce, but it was canceled because of the bride’s affair? There’s no news after that.”
“Isn’t Sienna a homewrecker? She forced the original wife away, but she didn’t succeed. I heard that Mister Jace went back to his former spouse, didn’t he?”
“Mister Jace’s formal spouse is just a country girl. They aren’t from the same social class. I think it’s unlikely for them to reconcile. However, I heard that Mister Jace often travels back and forth to Salem City and got really close with Miss Sage from the Norah family…” “I’ve seen it with my own eyes. It’s not just a rumor. I went to cover the opening of the horse farm in Salem City’s northern suburb. Mister Jace and Miss Sage must be in a special relationship.”
The media wondered if Miss Sage from the Norah family would come. Everyone else that should be here was here. Would she be here too? The media did not see the Norah Group chairman yet but noticed two other figures. A reporter shouted, “Hey, isn’t that Luna and Sienna, the hosts of Universal Channel?”
The cameras immediately turned to them and started clicking. Luna and Sienna were both wearing black dresses. They were still well-dressed and beautiful even in this rainy weather.
Sienna was crying and sobbing. She looked very sad. Luna helped her inside.
Many eyes of the crowd turned toward them because of Sienna’s uncontrollable sobbing.
Jekyll died, and Jace died too. When Sienna heard the news, she could not accept it at all. She thought God was playing a joke on her. How could it be? Did Jekyll not plan to run away on his way to Tovres? For that, he even introduced her to Peter. Otherwise, she would not have suffered so much at the hands of Shanie.
She lost a tooth, and her face was beaten so hard and almost ruined. 1
