Chapter 354 Her Ex-Husband’s Funeral (3)

Hailey’s words shocked both Maya and Eliza, and also the Moores.

Sincerity stood out in difficult times, When one was rich and powerful, a lot of people would flatter him, but when he or she was in trouble, few people could lend him or her a hand. At this time, it was clear who was the sincere one.

Steven walked up and said to Alan with an angry face, “Alan, I allow you to come here today because you are Owen’s father. But I never allow you to show off your affection with the homewrecker here. My grandson is gone, but I’m still alive. As long as I’m here, you won’t be allowed to enter our house again!

Now, take your mistress away from here, or you know what will happen!”

Alan seemed to have been slapped in the face by his former father-in-law, feeling extremely embarrassed.

He couldn’t help hating Maya.

This woman seduced him shamelessly back then, and Alan didn’t expect her to pester him for a lifetime.

He just couldn’t get rid of her, no matter how hard he tried!

This was the moral stain of his life. If she were not pregnant with his child…

Alan pressed his lips tightly and grabbed Maya by the wrist. “Come with me!”

He was still reluctant to leave her alone.

Once again, Maya felt that she had won, so she looked at Polly complacently, but unfortunately, Polly didn’t even glance at her.

Alan dragged Maya away, but Eliza didn’t want to leave.

She wanted to get rid of the bodyguard’s hand. “Let me look at him a little longer. I just want to stay a little longer. Owen…”

Hailey glared at her, which made Eliza’s heart skip a beat.

Then Eliza sobbed in a much lower voice.

Hailey felt sick to see Eliza’s hypocritical look. “You still want to stay longer? How shameless you are!”

Being stared at by Hailey, Eliza felt a chill down her spine. She didn’t dare to look into her eyes. “W-

What do you mean?”

“Don’t you know how Roger died and how he tried to escape?” Hailey looked Eliza up and down.

Her icy aura made Eliza dare not look up. “I… I don’t know what you’re saying…”

The next moment, Hailey stepped forward and grabbed Eliza by the neck.

The bodyguard’s umbrellas blocked this scene, and the cameras could not capture it at all. When the reporters were about to step forward, they were scared back by the bodyguards’ gazes.

Hailey grabbed Eliza’s neck as if she could put Eliza to death with a simple grip.

Eliza was lifted up. With her feet off the ground, she widened her eyes and looked at Hailey in horror.

She felt the coldness in Hailey’s eyes. For a moment, Eliza really thought she would die.

But she underestimated Hailey.

How would Hailey get herself sued for such a bitch?

There were ten million and ten thousand ways to make Eliza’s life a living hell. Killing such a bitch would only dirty Hailey’s hands.

Hailey approached Eliza and whispered in her ear, “Remember, you’re one of the accomplices in putting Owen to death. Roger killed countless people, and all of them were big and important cases.

You know the secrets and transactions between you and him the best. You had better behave.

Otherwise, I’m afraid no one will deal with your corpse when you die in the wild.”

Then Hailey let go of Eliza coldly. Eliza fell to the ground, covered her neck, and coughed.

Hailey didn’t want to see this disgusting face anymore. With a wave of her hand, she asked the bodyguards to take Eliza away. The reports turned the cameras, only to see Eliza being dragged away in a sorry state.

The reporters thought, “Man, it’s so embarrassing.”

“Ms. Newman is really as tough as rumored.”

“But what’s the relationship between her and the Moore family? She said she would protect the Moore family, and the Moores didn’t stop her even if she taught Eliza a lesson at the funeral. Besides, they seemed to be on her side.”

“The Moore family and the Newman family have always been competing against each other, haven’t they?”

“What on earth happened?”

After the annoying person left, the cemetery finally became quiet.

After the funeral, people who came to mourn left one after another. Hailey and the Moores stood together and bowed back.

Hailey stood here not as the daughter-in-law of the Moore family, but as the daughter of the Moore family.

The aged Steven and Abby had been standing there for nearly a day. They couldn’t hold on any longer and were driven back by the Moores.

The cemetery became empty, and the rain stopped. It suddenly became very quiet.

At Owen’s tomb, there were several bunches of white chrysanthemums, but what Hailey gave him was a bunch of white roses.

She squatted in front of the tombstone and looked at Owen’s photo before she gently stroked it. Karl, Jared, and others came quietly with Jason.

“Hailey, don’t be too sad.” Jason walked up with a bottle of wine and patted Hailey on the shoulder.

Hailey looked back at Jason with her dry eyes and called out in a hoarse voice, “Grandpa.”

Looking at Owen’s photo on the tombstone, Jason sighed deeply, “This boy promised to treat me to drink when he wins you back. Why did he die before me? Is he kidding?”

He squatted down, unscrewed the bottle, and poured it in front of Owen’s tomb.

“Forget it. This bottle of wine is my treat. Rest in peace, boy!”

Hailey felt a sharp pain in her heart.

Jason took out a stamp from his pocket and handed it to Hailey. “Did you carve this rose stamp?”

Hailey’s heart ached again when she saw the stamp with the word “Owen Moore.”

This rose seal was her gift to Owen for their 3rd wedding anniversary, but unfortunately, it also became a gift for their divorce.

In fact, their marriage was very absurd.

The bridegroom didn’t go to the wedding when they got married, and the bride didn’t go when they got divorced. Hailey hadn’t signed the divorce paper yet.

However, when she married Owen, she used the fake identity of “Hailey Byrne.”

So her marriage with Owen was never valid from beginning to end.

All of it was like a dream.

Hailey held the seal in her hand. This was a good piece of jade that she had spent a lot of effort to get.

It was a bright white jade with red lines like a red rose blooming.

Now the red rose became clearer, matched by the white rose carved on the side.

“Grandpa, why do you have this seal?” Hailey asked Jason in confusion.

Jason responded, “Owen asked someone to bring it here. He said that the bottom was broken and asked me to repair it. He also asked me not to tell you about it, afraid that you’ll be angry.” Hailey looked at the bottom of the seal and found that there were indeed traces of repair. Jason’s skill of repairing was so ingenious that it was hard for an outsider to see. But Hailey could tell at a glance that the letter “n” was incomplete.

Jade was spiritual. So was it a sign of Owen’s death?
