Before Pierre reacted, the Maybach roared away quickly.
Gazing at the receding form of the vehicle, he clenched his fingers tightly, his eyes steely and sharp.
In the Maybach, Mya turned to him and asked anxiously, "We've been too rude." She felt extremely uneasy.
"Mr. Marsh called me because your father's case progressed." Finnley sped up the car. "I'll drop you off at the hospital first. Then I'll return to the company."
Mya didn't speak, although she had mixed feelings.
A while later, she leaned against the seat back and said, "We should attend her funeral. No matter how busy we're."
"It depends."
"No. It's unacceptable," Mya retorted, "We must attend it. Or you'll always feel uneasy whenever thinking about the matter in the future."
Finnley thought her words made sense.
Nodding his agreement, he answered, "OK. Let's attend it together."
Mya also couldn't wait to get the update from Ivan, wondering if it was good or bad news.
Finnley dropped off Mya at the hospital. After visiting Shirley hurriedly, he left the ward.
Pierre thought Finnley was heartless, feeling sorry for his daughter.
When he arrived at the mortuary house, Madeline realized him failed to bring Finnley over. Feeling sorry for her daughter, she wept hoarsely.
"Let the cremation start," Pierre ordered, repressing his sorrow.
"Yes, Mr. Calder."
The staff of the mortuary house followed the procedure.
"Finnley is so heartless!" Madeline couldn't stop shedding tears, gripping his arm. "Have you met him?"
"Yes, I have," Pierre answered in a steely tone.
His wife sobbed, "Did he know Eloise had passed away?"
"Yes, he did."
