Chapter 651: Funeral
“Yes, Mr Lisa,” Scarlet replied with a lowered head. Though she felt reluctant, she didn’t dare to argue
at that moment.
“Cecilia always listened to you since she was young. The way forward depended on your guidance.” Mr
Lisa said.
“I will guide her well, Mr Lisa,” Scarlet assured.
Lisa was about to leave when he suddenly thought of something and stopped.
“Isa is my biological sister,” he said.
Upon hearing this, Scarlet felt even more uneasy.
“Don’t cause her any more trouble in the future,” Lisa added.
“Yes…” Scarlet hadn’t expected Mr Lisa to say such words. As she watched his figure walking away,
her anger grew.
Who was causing trouble for whom?
The thought of making Miss Cecilia apologize to Isabe the next day filled Scarlet with intense anger
and heartache.
The next morning.
Isabe discovered a message she had received from Silvia–Freda’s mother, the previous night.
“Isa, thank you for doing everything you could to save Freda. Today was her funeral. Did youe?”
Silvia asked.
“Yes,” Isabe quickly replied.
“Freda liked you a lot when she was alive. I believe she would have been pleased to have you
apany her on her final journey,” Silvia expressed.
Isabe thought of replying with just one word, “Condolences.” But the loss of a beloved daughter could
not beforted with just two simple words.
Instead, she replied, “I arrived shortly.”
Freda’s funeral was about to take ce in the Heilig Family Cemetery. ording to the geomancer, the
best time for the burial was ten o’clock in the morning, considering the excellent location of the Heilig
Family and the date of the deceased’s birth, ensuring her future prosperity and carefree life.
Therefore, the funeral had to be hastily arranged.
Despite the time constraint, through orderly preparations, the venue was grand and majestic, with
many people attending the funeral.
When Isabe and Benjamin arrived, they saw a sea of mourners dressed in ck, demonstrating the
extensivework of the Heilig Family.
Flowers and elegiac couplets surrounded the entire cemetery outside the Heilig Family Cemetery like
blooming blossoms.
The Heilig Family members, dressed in ck formal attire, including distant and close rtives, were
now in front of the memorial hall. weeping uncontrobly, deeply immersed in grief.
After presenting the flowers, Benjamin and Isabe approached the open- air memorial hall and bowed
to Freda.
They were naturally beautiful, and standing side by side attracted even more attention.
After Isabe finished bowing, she looked at the ck-and-white image of Freda and the coffin ced
beneath it, recalling Freda’s cheerful and lively demeanour when they first met.
Isabe also felt sorrowful, with the Heilig Family members crying in her ears as if she relived the pain
of losing Old Madam Brown.
The Heilig Family members bowed to each person who came to pay respects. Despite their tearful
appearance, Tel and Silvia, who were leading the ceremony, still bent down to thank Benjamin and
Isabe for their presence.
“Benjamin, thank you foring…” Tel hugged Benjamin but couldn’t hold back his tears.

“My condolences,” Benjamin patted his back to console him.
Tel’s grief became even more overwhelming. The feeling of the sky copsing after losing a daughter
was agonizing and devastating.
“The way you all were grieving will worry Freda…” Isabe hugged Silvia and said, “Freda’s biggest
concern before she left must have been all of you.”
Silvia cried inconsbly, “I knew… but I couldn’t calm down… I only had one daughter… Why did fate
cruelly take her away? What was I supposed to do in the remaining years of my life?”
Her sobbing voice intensified the sadness of the other Heilig Family members.
“I understand, I do.” Isabe patted Silvia’s back. She had experienced these feelings, like falling into a
deep sea with no hope of rescue, even desperate enough to close her eyes and sink to the bottom.
“I miss Freda so much. I wish she could talk to me. She was my only daughter, growing from a helpless
baby to a beautiful youngdy. I had imagined countless possibilities for Freda’s future, but I never
imagined she would die in such a tragic way.”
Silvia’s sorrowful cries caused tears to flow from the eyes of the surrounding rtives and mourners.
They had never expected such a bright future for the girl to be struck by such a disaster.
At that moment, amotion broke out among the crowd, and Silvia looked up through her tears to
see a path being cleared. Dressed in a ck suit, Mathew walked into the memorial hall with red eyes.
Silvia became instantly agitated. “What are you doing here? The Heilig Family didn’t invite you. Leave,
get out!”
“Silvia…” Isabe wanted to say something to Mathew.
But Silvia interrupted her, saying, “You saved Freda, and she liked you when she was alive. I do not
object to you representing the Logan family, but he cannot set foot here! Guards!”
“Silvia, I want to see Freda,” Mathew said.
Mathew knew Silvia and Tel already hated him to the extreme, but he had to bid Freda farewell on her
final journey. Freda died while trying to save Nora, her adoptive parents. How could he live with himself
if he didn’te?
“Leave! Get out!” Tel, with teary eyes, approached Mathew and pushed him away. “You are not
wee here. You know very well why Freda is lying here! Get lost!”
Why did he have toe and stir up their emotions…
They had lost their only daughter, and the second half of their lives was destined to be lonely and
deste….
Why did Mathew have to appear and add insult to injury…
“Take your things and leave!” Tel harshly threw the flowers Mathew had brought for Freda at him.
At that moment, a bone-chilling wind whistled through, and delicate snowkes began to fall from the
sky…
Silvia’s eyes reddened even more as she looked up at the snowkes. Was it Fredaing back?
Freda loved snow so much…
Because they treated Mathew this way, she must have manifested herself, hoping they would show
mercy…
“Freda would want Mathew to be here for her final journey,” Isabe said. “Tel and Silvia, let Mathew
bid farewell to Freda, please?”
Tel and Silvia couldn’t control their tears anymore.
Mathew bowed his head and nodded at them, then took slow steps toward the memorial image.
The girl’s radiant smile and bright eyes were still vivid in his mind, but she had experienced inhuman
torture during her short life…
Tears welled in Mathew’s eyes as he offered the flowers and bowed deeply to the image.
Another gust of wind blew, and pure white snowkes fell onto Mathew’s shoulders as if invisible hands
gentlyforted him.
Tel and Silvia broke down in tears. Freda must have manifested herself. she saw this maning to
bid her farewell, and the wind was her response….
As Mathew bowed to the Heilig Family members, Tel and Silvia finally returned the gesture.
Isabe’s eyes glistened with tears.
