Chapter 435 Her Repulsive behavior
Emele shook her head.
No one whether she struggled with accepting Ronan’s passing or she had other thoughts on her mind.
She organized the interview notes and handed it back to lon
Without saying anything else, she left the police station
Ashton followed her closely and asked in a casual tone, “ele, what are you still not understanding about your father’s death?”
Emelle struggled to reply.
“Is there anywhere else you want to go? Ashton asked
“Please take me back to Alderbrook,” Emelie said.
When she returned home to Alderbrook, Emelie found the house tidied up and cleaned.
They hadn’t even started their New Year’s Eve dinner when Greta had to be rushed to the hospital, leaving the food untouched on the table.
Roman must’ve stored what was still edible in the fridge and disposed of the rest. No wonder Zion mentioned that Ronan had thrown out a big bag of garbage that evening,
Up in the attic, Embe noticed her bedsheets and covers were replaced with new ones. As she stared at them being perfectly laid out, tears instantly pooled around her
The Hovens had surveillance cameras installed around their house. After Ashton left, Emelie sat on her bed and began watching the footage on her phone.
She watched Roman’s finalmoments, finding him diligently cleaning up the house. Emelie was surprised to see that, since Ronan had never once done any chores over the past thirty years.
She forwarded the footage further to New Year’s Eve.
That night, she brought Greta to the hospital because of an emergency while he went out drinking heavily. He was even reported to the police, and William’s men brought him back home
He spent the night on the couch
After he woke up, he immediately left the house. During the following three days, he never once returned home
Emelle began wondering where Ronan had gone during those three days?
What did he do?
Emelie and Eliana took charge of organizing Ronan’s funeral.
In Capebatt City there was a tradition of letting the bodies rest for three days before the cremation or burial. Since Ronan was already cremated, Emelie and Eliana kept the proceduces simple and proceeded with the burial rites.
The cemetery that william picked was located in a scenic and prestigious place in town burial plot therecost goo thousand dollars. And while William intended to cover the expense himself, Emelle insisted on paying.
William sensed the distance between them, but he remained silent about it.
Only a small group of relatives and trends attended the burial
However, Emelie didn’t expect Henry and Vanessa to be there. They even brought flowers and bowed to Emelie.
“Thank you.” Emelie said
Henry approached her with a sigh. “I know you and William remanded. From now on, we’re family. If you ever need anything, don’t hesitate to act”
Emelie responded in a low voice, “Thank you, Mr. Middleton.”
Despite Henry hinting at his acceptance of their marriage, Emelie still addressed him formally.
Vanessa book Emelle’s hand. “I’ll stay with Emelie for a while!
Henry nodded and left
Vanessa and Emelie sat down on a stone bench by the cemetery Vanessa took out a bank card from her purse and offered it to Emelle
“This is a token from Henry and me, Emelie. Please accept it,” Vanessa said.
Emelie declined. “No, thank you. It means a lot to me that you and Mr. Middleton came to see my dad off*
“We heard that your dad’s passing was because of your marriage with Will. We’re truly sorry about that. Please, take it.” Vanessa beld Emelie’s hand and placed the card in her palms,
“It’s better not to tell your mom about it yet. We heard she’s back in the hospital. She can’t handle anymore stress,” Vanessa added.
Emelie slowly turned to look at Vanessa and said calmly, “As long as you don’t tell her, she won’t know That way, she won’t be stressed.”
Vanessafro for a brief moment. “Emelie, what do you mean by that?”
“Nothing I just hope that if you’re scheming ything. Mrs. Middleton, do it to me instead of my mom. Leave her out of it. Please don’t bribe caregivers like before so you can purposely upset her. I’ve already lost my dad. If I lose my mom too, I would never forgive you,” Emelie said with numbness in her tone.
Vanessa abruptly stood up, looking Incredibly upset. “Emelie, is it because of your dad’s death that you’re spouting nonsense?When have I ever done something like that? Who
Vanessa delt deeply hurt. “I’ve treated you like my own all these years, always hoping for your happiness with Will, it will doesn’t understand me, that’s one thing. But now even you‘ This….this is bound!”
