Chased Her Around After Breaking off His Engagement novel Chapter 651

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.”

Freda’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.
