Chapter 188: Funeral and Returning Shadows

(Third person’s POV)

In mid–May, Gerald Rivers returned from his European visit to bid farewell to his son and daughter–in–law. The funeral for William Rivers and Eleanor Rivers was scheduled for May 17th.

On the funeral day, the sky was overcast with leaden gray clouds hanging low. The atmosphere felt somber and oppressive, as if the heavens themselves mourned the loss.

The private cemetery was located fifteen kilometers north of Rivers Pack Mansion. Generations of Rivers

pack ancestors rested here in eternal peace.

Rows of neat tombstones stood silently like guardians of time. They witnessed countless endings and beginnings of pack life throughout the centuries.

Now two new monuments joined them. The stones were engraved with names, birth dates, and death dates

of the deceased.

Mourners dressed in black with solemn expressions slowly entered this tranquil place. Their footsteps were

muffled against the soft earth, creating an almost reverent silence.

The two graves were arranged vertically, representing different generations. Bouquets and wreaths

surrounded them in a sea of white and pale colors.

The ceremony began with a pack elder’s low and solemn voice leading prayers and remembrance. His words carried the weight of tradition and loss.

Pack members bowed their heads in silent tribute. Time became slow and heavy, each moment stretching

like an eternity.

Finally came the farewell moment. Mourners placed white moonflowers one by one on the fresh graves.

Despite past unpleasantness with the Rivers pack, Richard Winters and Natalie Winters attended the funeral. They offered their condolences to the three remaining Rivers family members with genuine respect.

After the funeral ended, a young woman in a black dress with white flowers approached. Her movements were graceful despite the somber occasion.

She greeted Gerald Rivers and Eleanor Rivers with appropriate reverence. Then she turned to Connor Rivers

with subtle changes in her eyes.

Her gaze showed more tenderness as she called his name. “Connor.”

Connor responded coldly and politely. “Thank you for specifically returning to the country to attend my father

and grandmother’s funeral, Miranda.”

Miranda looked at him with barely perceptible heartache. “My condolences for your loss.”

Connor’s brief “hmm” and averted gaze signaled the end of their conversation. His ice–blue eyes remained

distant and unreadable.

Seeing this, Miranda lowered her eyes with trembling eyelashes. She said nothing more and quietly left the

cemetery grounds.

As funeral attendees gradually departed, Connor didn’t see the figure he hoped for. Disappointment flashed

in his ice–blue eyes like a shadow.
