Chapter 1000: Past Lives and Present, Illusion Realm? (Part 2)

Allen pushed An Mingji to the coffin’s side, standing properly by his side, his voice low and hoarse: "Family Head, please look at Madam one more time; the coffin will be sealed soon."

The wheelchair stopped in front of the coffin, and An Mingji’s heart pounded uncontrollably.

A strong sense of grief and sadness surged from deep within.

He still didn’t understand what had happened.

His body instinctively moved.

He leaned slightly forward to look into the coffin, at the person Allen referred to as his wife.

With just one glance, his eyes felt like they would crack.

The world turned upside down, his vision awash in blood red.

An Mingji clutched the wheelchair’s handles tightly, his eyes wide and red, staring intently at the woman inside the coffin.

The woman looked like she was in her thirties or forties, clad in luxurious elegance, wearing Italian royal attire.

Her eyes were shut tight, her expression peaceful, like an unapproachable cold and proud winter plum.

A faint strange smell wafted to his nose, the unique scent emanated from the corpse.

An Mingji gazed at the woman lying inside, scrutinizing her carefully, not missing even the fine lines at the corners of her eyes.

Even if she had aged, it couldn’t hide her youthful beauty.

Let alone such a face, so familiar to An Mingji to the core.

The woman in the coffin was none other than his sister, Gu Jin!

"Gu Jin!"

An Mingji was overwhelmed with grief, letting out a heartbreaking low roar.

He forgot that his legs were now useless, and abruptly stood up, trying to move forward to have a closer look.

However, this action caused him to fall directly to the ground.

"Family Head!"

Allen immediately went forward to assist him.

Other trusted members of the Darwin Family also surged forward.

The large hall was filled with Beijing’s esteemed figures, all disturbed by this spectacle, each wearing an expression of confusion.

None of them understood how, as the Liu Family’s eldest son’s former wife, who was sacrificed as a scapegoat by the Liu Family, could suddenly become the Matriarch of the Italian Darwin Family.

This always-mysterious family, rarely spoken of easily, turned out to have significant ties with the Liu Family’s former daughter-in-law.

After this woman’s many days of death.

All of Beijing’s noble families received funeral notices from the Darwin Family.

The notice stated that the Matriarch of the Darwin Family had passed, inviting everyone to attend.

With an imposing presence, they held a grand funeral in Beijing, who dared not to give face?

After arriving, they finally understood what had transpired.

At this moment, watching the Darwin Family Head’s grief-stricken, heart-wrenching state, the crowd frequently cast glances at the Liu and Zhen families.

It seemed someone was in trouble.

However, no one should think of watching the spectacle, as all those invited today were more or less associated with the Liu and Zhen families.

Insightful individuals felt fear and anxiety welling up in their hearts at this moment.

Allen helped An Mingji up, not understanding why the Family Head suddenly caused such a commotion.

The sorrow on the Family Head’s face, and the fierceness in his eyes were vividly clear to Allen, leaving him momentarily at a loss, with unease bubbling inside.

Previously, when they received news of the Madam being used as a scapegoat by the Liu and Zhen families, the Family Head’s indignation was nothing compared to the shock caused by this moment.

All the changes seemed to have just begun.

Sensing the probing gazes around, Allen supported An Mingji, his voice low: "Family Head, are you alright?"

"Gu Jin, Gu Jin..."

Under Allen’s support, An Mingji held onto the exquisite coffin, staring closely at the woman lying inside.

He called out Gu Jin’s name repeatedly.

Each call conveyed his blood-curdling, heart-rending grief and despair.
