NovelEnglishThere was a sending-off ceremony for family members of the deceased at night in Zelotria.
Olivia hid in the crowd as she looked at the members of the Fordham family.
Other than Douglas' offspring, there were also the offspring of his brothers and other branch families.
The Fordhams were a huge family.
The ceremony was about to begin.
David was supposed to be the one to pay his respects first, but since he had already passed, Henley was the one to do it instead.
Everyone else went to take a flower of their own.
Troy and Sean were wheelchair-bound.
So, Jacqueline suggested that she would get the flowers for them.
Before she could reach out to get the flowers, someone grabbed her wrist.
Graham said, "This ceremony is for family members only.
I'm afraid you don't have the right to participate." As soon as he said that, Troy snapped back, "Enough is enough, Graham! We're mourning Grandpa right now.

But there were a lot of outsiders present that night.
That wasn't the place for Graham to be spewing nonsense.
Sean had beccalm.
No matter how ignorant Graham was, he shouldn't be causing a scene at a tlike this.
Moreover, Graham worked in the entertainment industry.
He should know the gravity of such a situation.
He had to be well- prepared if he was acting so arrogantly.
Sean looked at Henley, who had just suffered the loss of a child.
He looked a little frail.
Garrett's body had been dug out.
His son had died for so long.
How could he not be sad to send his son off? That was why he didn't say anything to stop Graham.
His eyes were soulless, and he was completely spaced out.
Instead, Henley's wife, Aubrey Goode, took a step forward and said, "Please calm down, Troy.
Besides, Graham isn't wrong.
It's not only Jacqueline.
You and Sean don't have the right to pay respects to Dad either." Jacqueline had always been very docile when she was with her elders, but even her expression changed at this moment.
"What are you saying, Aunt Aubrey? Even if my dad and Avery aren't here, we're still Grandpa's family.
Why don't we have the right to pay our respects to him?" "why?" Graham sneered, the mockery in his expression was clear.
"Are you acting dumb or do you really not know the truth? You're all so shameless." "Graham, if you have an issue with me, we can talk it out in private.
Do you have to cause a scene right here and now? Aunt Aubrey, he's young and clueless, sure.
But are you really so ignorant as well? "Why are you allowing him to run his mouth and bring shto the family? Grandpa cared about the family the most when he was alive..." "Oh, wow.
You keep talking about the family.
How nice of you.
But I'm going to talk about it right here and now.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmI want everyone to know how shameless the lot of you are.
You've lied to all of us for so many years." The crowd heard Graham's words and knew that a massive secret was about to be revealed.
Sof them had the urge to get spopcorn to watch whatever was about to happen.
A prestigious family like the Fordhams usually kept their private matters to themselves.
Now that they had decided to reveal their secrets, it was sure to be something big.
Olivia didn't see this coming.
She felt like whatever Graham was going to say wouldn't be good.
Someone in the crowd squeezed her hand.
She looked and saw that Ethan had already appeared next to her.
He felt the sweat on her palms.
"Don't worry." "For sreason, I feel like this is going to be something really big." She met Ethan's gaze and saw that he looked like he knew what was going to happen.
"Do you know something?" Before Ethan could speak, Graham had already started talking.
3 "T'll tell everyone the reason why you don't have the right to pay respects to Grandpa.
It's because you're not actually Fordhams.
Your father is not Grandpa's son!"
