Chapter 1001
Emmanuel and Alton had no connection whatsoever. So, after Emmanuel joined the mourning period with everyone else, he departed from the scene and made their way to another hill with Beatrix.
They were going to visit Emmanuel’s father-in-law’s grave.
“Emmanuel, what are you muttering over there? You look so serious!”

When they arrived at Dad’s grave, Beatrix immediately noticed Emmanuel’s devout expression and couldn’t resist teasing him.
Emmanuel eventually rose to his feet after bowing to the tombstone one final time before saying, “I’m thanking your father and Felicity Lenoir, your mother, for giving birth to your sister. They’re the reason I now have a wife!”
Pfft.
Beatrix burst into peals of laughter. Her brother-in-law was so innocent, wasn’t he?
Then, she sensed something was amiss and quickly pouted. “Then, why haven’t you thanked them for giving birth to me? Otherwise, how would you have such a lovely sister-in-law?”
After that, she even deliberately donned a cute expression in jest.
“Haha! Then, I’ll thank them for that as well!” Emmanuel chuckled lightly.
Beatrix became even more annoyed. Wasn’t he being way too dismissive about the whole thing?
“Hmph! And here I thought you were a nice person.”
She was just contemplating how to deal with Emmanuel when suddenly she felt a tremor.
“Hey, Emmanuel! What’s happening?”
Eventually, she couldn’t maintain her balance and fell into his arms.
He quickly looked around and noticed two large machines approaching at the end of the road!
Those were excavators and bulldozers!
“What’s going on?”
He was also taken aback. Did the drivers make a mistake?
Alton’s grave wasn’t located here!
So, what were they doing here?
In the next moment, he instantly sensed that something was about to go awry. The two machines were heading straight for Tony’s grave!
Sure enough, the instant those two heavy-duty machines arrived in front of the grave, they raised their mechanical arms without any hesitation and smashed them down onto the tomb!
What the hell?!

Emmanuel swiftly grabbed Beatrix and rolled away from the scene. Alas, the dirt and stones still nearly injured them both!
“Emmanuel! Emmanuel, stop them! They want to dig up Dad’s grave!”
Beatrix shouted at Emmanuel the very second she realized what these intruders intended to do.
Emmanuel felt his blood boil!
This was Mackenzie’s Dad’s grave! His father-in-law’s grave!
