Sabrina smiled. "It's nothing. It's just that my three cousins of the Shaw family did not really want to let my mother be a part of the family, but they wanted her to observe mourning. I feel that they have been abroad for too long, so they are still judging others with an outdated standard. My mother had already been so miserable in this life. I can't help but feel angry when I see the three of them treating my mother like that. Luckily, Marcus and his parents are still very reasonable. Let's just first let the old man's funeral be completed. We'll come cover and pick my mother up at night. It's not too late for you to pay your respects to the old man then."Sebastian, who was on the other end of the call, did not understand the situation, so he did not say much. "Alright."In the afternoon, Sebastian immediately rushed home after he had finished handling the company's matters, and he saw Sabrina sitting alone in the living room while being in a daze."What's the matter?" asked the
Nobody was able to persuade Gloria. She continued kneeling outside.Also, not everyone who came to offer their condolences was kind-hearted. Some of them just like to create drama, especially those ladies from eminent families who were close to Old Madam Shaw back then. Even though they were already old ladies, some of them still felt high and mighty. One of the old ladies had come to offer her condolences just could not stand the sight of Gloria."Isn't the daughter of the mistress? When your father was still alive, you didn't care for him and you kept dreaming of being a lady of the family all day long. Now that your father has passed away, you're publicly mourning him like that out here? Are you actually mourning or are you just putting on an act for the others? You and your mother, the woman who deliberately destroyed a family, are really alike. You're small-minded and not presentable at all! If you want to mourn, just go in and kneel by Old Master Shaw's casket instead of doing
"That's right," Sebastian replied extremely honestly.Keegan sneered. "As expected!""Mom! Mom, don't kneel anymore. Your knees would be damaged!" Sabrina rushed to her mother while feeling very sorry. Tears were about to stream down her cheeks. It was not because her mother was kneeling there. It was mainly because Sabrina had witnessed Keegan standing in front of her mother bossing her around.She helped her mother up and then she looked at Keegan with an angry expression that seemed like she was close to having a breakdown. "What's the matter! What's the matter! Are you still going to let others live or not? Has my mother been mooching off you or has she killed your father? Why are you not willing to let her go! Call the police then! Go on! Call the police now! Keegan Shaw, listen to me! If the police came over and found that there's nothing wrong with my mother, I will skin you alive! I, Sabrina Shaw, will forever be your enemy in this life!""Sure! I'll be waiting!" Keegan sai
"Now it seems that I have indeed gotten it right! You had gone to great lengths to take the entire Ford family into the palm of your hands, and you are now here to harm the Shaw now?"Sebastian nodded. "Mm-hmm. As expected of a person who grew up abroad and has his own multinational corporate group. You are unusually smart."Keegan fully accepted the compliment Sebastian had given him. He raised his eyebrows. "Sebastian, you're still quite honest. At least you've admitted to everything. However, Sebastian, listen to me! Since my two brothers and I have returned, we absolutely will not let you, your mother-in-law, and your wife, as well as my brother's bullshit of a girlfriend who was introduced to him by your wife, have it your way! I think the three Shaw brothers are more than capable of dealing with you, an illegitimate child!""Bullshit!" Yvonne suddenly walked out of the car. She had been sitting inside the car the whole time. She was just unwilling to get out. The reason she fo
Keegan was stunned when he heard that. Before he was able to react, somebody had already come over to forcefully grab his arms and drag him to the side. Not long after that, his second and third brothers also were dragged out."What are you doing? What are you guys doing?" Keegan, Caelus, and Lokni shouted in unison."Let us go! This is our house! The person who has passed away is our grandfather! Our grandfather!""Sebastian Ford! What do you want to do?""We'll call the police! Lokni, call the police, call them now! I just don't believe a robber can still be so arrogant in this society governed by law!"Immediately after that, Lokni took out his phone to call the police. The three brothers originally thought that someone would stop them from calling the police, but nobody did. They successfully called the police without any hindrance. However, it did not take them long to realize that it was not about calling the police or not anymore. That was because Sebastian only had his peo
The couple were both dressed in black and wearing black armbands, and both of them had solemn and sorrowful expressions on their faces. The couple would respectfully bow their heads together whenever someone came over to express their grief."Sebastian, you've done well. It's Old Master Shaw's blessing to have you.""Sebastian, seeing that you've taken time out of your busy schedule to take care of Old Master Shaw's funeral is enough to show that you're generous and you're willing to let bygones be bygones. With you being in charge, the old folks like us will rest assured.""We'll first head in, Sebastian."Sebastian nodded to all of them respectively.After these people went in, a person who looked like a maid came to Sebastian. "Master Sebastian, the room has been set up. The person to collect the memorial gifts is also ready. In addition, the clothes for mourning for the master and the lady of the house, Madam Gloria, and the young masters have also been prepared according to t
"Hello? Is this the Phin Group? I would like to work with you in South City… What? You can't. Your company had long been working very closely with the Ford Group. You have always been relying on supplying raw materials to the Ford Group. If you stop supplying to them, then wouldn't you be breaking their supply chain… What? He can still import the raw materials from the southeast region… Alright, then.""Hello, Roddy. It's me, Keegan. Yes, I have returned to the country. My company is very large abroad. You know that one as well. It already has assets that are worth more than ten billion dollars. I now want to tidy up the business circle of the South City. The Shaw family… You… What did you say? What's wrong with my family? We have never relied on the Ford family, much less Sebastian Ford! What a joke!""Hello, Mister Jimenez… Oh, you… It's out of respect to Mister Ford that you came to attend my grandfather's funeral? Ask him to go to hell!"Keegan was so angry that he almost threw
That was also a matter from many years ago. However, the young lady had a very good memory. She took the bus and then changed to the subway. After she got off the subway, she took a long car ride before she finally arrived outside of the Shaw Residence which was located at the foot of a mountain.At first, Aino was still uncertain if she had come to her great-grandfather's house. After all, there were quite a number of Shaw families in the South City. However, when Aino saw the black cloth hanging outside the entrance of the Shaw Residence and also the obituary, Aino was certain that this must be her great-grandfather's house.Many black cars were parked outside. Aino had made a call to her mother earlier on, and she had heard that her great-grandfather was going to be cremated that day. Seeing that so many cars and so many people were going in one after another, her great-grandfather's ashes must have already returned.In fact, Aino did not care about that. She had no sense of kins
