Chapter 602 Unprecedented Burial
Countless people gathered outside Jade Estate, and there were more making their way here.
All the roads connecting to the estate saw standstill traffic.
The Traffic Department under the city council was forced to mobilize more manpower to clear the traffic and maintain order.
Ever since the city was built, it had never seen such a grand funeral before.
The red carpets were taken away, the stage for the ceremony was taken down, and the flowers along the pathways were removed.
The top three families spent tens of millions to prepare this event to flatter the God of War, yet because of an order, all the decorations were taken down.
All the decorations in Jade Estate were changed to prepare for the wake service.
White flowers were placed around the lake, giving the entire premise a gloomy and heavy mood.
The square that was used for the inauguration ceremony was turned into the venue for the wake service and funeral.
A group of five to six hundred people appeared in formal wear, mostly black, and came out of the main building to pay respect to the deceased.
“Look, the heads of the top three families are at the forefront!”
“Even Taylor Swan is also there! She looks so good in black formal wear! Even better than on TV!”
“Damn, the former chairman of Lilyrose Bank, Maurice Toan; the chairman of the old Bersina Group, Toffle Toan; the chairwoman of Tuling Education Group, Jessica Summer; all of them are business tycoons and they are all here to pay respect to James White!”
“That’s Lightning Tiger, the bastard who monopolized the funeral industry! He forced countless families to a bitter end and now he is here to pay for his crimes!”
Lilyroseans were engaged in a heated discussion regarding the business tycoons and elites they saw.
They were some of the most powerful people that no one would dare to mess with yet they were all here to pay respect to the deceased.

They were like monkeys in a cage, allowing the people to tease and mock them at will.
Belarus, Flint, and Edward led the group forward.
Belarus was holding a black and white portrait of James and with each four steps he took, he would kneel and bow at the sky before he got up and continued forward.
After some distance, Belarus was already shaking due to exhaustion and he was sweating profusely, but he carried on with clenched teeth.
Behind him, eighteen young men from all three families carried the casket on their shoulders.
After them would be the main group of the funeral procession.
Jessica and Shelly were among the main group as well.
All three families mobilized everyone.

“Look at that kid, he is not even ten years old yet he is there with the group. The sun is harsh today. Poor kid.”
“There are a lot of women as well. Most of them lived a good life yet they are being tortured like this. How sad.”
Some of the audience felt bad for the women and children.
“Bad? The three families monopolized many industries and oppressed the people for billions of dollars. The children and women enjoyed the benefits also, yet you feel bad for them because they have to walk under the sun?”
“Two years ago, Shangrila Group went bankrupt and James White’s family were thrown out of their house and almost died. Why no one pitied them?”
“Yeah! Go away, hypocrite!”
As the audience continued their heated discussion, the top three families and the others were done circling the lake.
