Everyone was looking at Georgia.
Everyone realized Dora Simpson was only an illegitimate child and knew that her words held no weight.
However, they would take any chance they could for the gossip.
By the way, Dora mentioned inheritance, which was simply the beginning of the family inheritance battle.
Apart from the nosy people, those who were attending the funeral were very concerned about who would run the Simpson family’s business in the future? Who would inherit the estate?
These were all related to the continuation of the cooperation with all those partners in the long run.
This was also related to how other families would deal with the members of the Simpson family in the future. Everyone wanted to know who would inherit the core property, to know who they should avoid offending.
“Auntie, Robert and I have got married, we got our marriage certificate, and we just haven't held the wedding yet. I'm sorry, Robert didn't tell you about the good news in time.”
Sierra suddenly spoke in front of everyone, and hundreds of people in the funeral began to whisper.
As everyone thought that Robert and Sierra had not officially held their wedding, so there would be a long tug of war for Robert’s property distribution.
Of course, if Robert had his will, this matter would not be troublesome.
It was just that something happened to Robert at a young age, and he might not necessarily leave a will.
What's more, so far, the Simpson family had not said anything about his will at all.
On the contrary, after Robert left, all of his subordinates and assistants were following Sierra's orders, and Sierra was in charge as if she was the central figure of the entire Simpson family.
Everyone was thinking, what would Sierra do in the future?
Everyone guessed that Sierra and Robert were not officially married, and there was no legal protection of their rights. Being just a fiancée, approved by Robert’s family and friends, was not enough for her to inherit much of their estates and properties.
But right now, Sierra publicly admitted in front of everyone that she and Robert had actually been officially married, which meant that she was a legitimate spouse of his and the first heir.
Everyone was in shock. The people whose expressions changed the most were those from the Simpson family.
They thought that Sierra would just show up at the funeral and that was it. Once the distribution of the inheritance began, they would find a way to remove his fiancée out of the Simpson family.
Nobody expected Sierra would announce that she and Robert officially got married and had their certificate, and people from the Simpson family all looked surprised.
Sierra glanced at the audience, and subconsciously stared at Georgia for several times.
She was expecting an uncomfortable and painful look on this woman's face, but Georgia remained very calm, so calm that Sierra couldn't help but panic a little.
“Are you kidding me? You said you married Robert. Where is the marriage certificate?”
Dora didn't want to believe this fact. Instead, she asked with a sneer.
“Auntie, I don’t say things without a proof. I certainly have the marriage certificate in my hand, but it's Robert’s funeral. Today we are here to pray for him to rest in peace. It’s not suitable for quarreling now. I don’t want Robert’s funeral to become a joke. Auntie, if you keep shouting like this again, I can only ask the security to take you out.”
Sierra’s words sounded threatening, and she didn’t appear to be sympathetic, looking very detached and disengaged. She just seemed to be a pain in the neck.
Everyone murmured inside their mind. They had assumed Sierra was a weak beauty, but she seemed pretty difficult to deal with.
“Okay, this is the mourning hall, so I would keep my silence. Anyway, God will see the unfairness. I'd like to see who the liar is.”
After Dora finished her sentences, she glanced at Georgia again, and then returned to her position and sat down.
Then, the circumstance had completely changed after Sierra gave her warning and her dozens of bodyguards came in to maintain the order of the hall. There was no one single person in the funeral who dared to make any trouble.
Everything was carried out in accordance with the schedule. Georgia was looking forward to it at the beginning but gradually she could only feel desperate.
On the way to here, she had been expecting that Robert would show up in the mourning hall.
Imagining he told everyone that he was still alive, and the funeral was just an artful deception.
However, the funeral was almost over, but he still did not appear to be alive.
Elsie noticed Georgia was looking a lot paler as the time went by, so she took Georgia's hand and comforted her.
“Robert never recovered his memory. I believe that woman, Sierra, tricked him to marry her. Don't feel sad about this matter.”
Elsie thought that Georgia would feel uncomfortable in the mourning hall because Sierra announced she and Robert got married. Georgia would definitely not be able to bear this kind of thing.
“Elsie, it’s not because of that. There is one thing I can't say for now. I want to wait and see how many people will stand up and speak up.”
Georgia and Robert’s marriage certificate was well-kept in her safe, and Georgia didn’t believe whatever Sierra said.
