Chapter 1100 - 513: Return from the Great Dream (3) (Second Update)

Chapter 1100: Chapter 513: Return from the Great Dream (3) (Second Update)

Because Mr. Yu had an accident, Miss Tang was sent to the intensive care unit of a mental hospital, and Mrs. Fang was busy preparing for Mr. Yu’s funeral, so the second round of the Celestial Path Sect’s competition livestream was paused for a day.

Now, the netizens around the world watching the Celestial Path Sect’s competition were baffled by the developments in the second round, all speculating about what was going on.

On the day of the funeral, Lawrence Winters, along with the other three competitors, the host, and the guide, went to the local community church to pay their respects.

Both Mrs. Fang and Mr. Yu were members of this church, so it was only natural for his funeral to be held there.

It was Lawrence Winters’ first time at this church.

He had seen the white marble Gothic cathedral from afar before, but now it stood majestically in front of everyone.

No wonder it’s a luxury community, even the church is so luxurious.

However, as they entered, the guide explained to them that this church had been there for almost two hundred years, even longer than the history of the community itself.

Thinking about this country’s history, everyone was at ease.

Mr. Yu’s funeral was held in a small side hall of the church. The place wasn’t large, and it was clear Mrs. Fang hadn’t invited many people.

But shortly after they entered, Evan Stetford came in with a group of people.

Lawrence and the others were startled.

Besides Evan Stetford and his entourage, Aiden Sheldon was also there.

How did this wretched father get here too?

Lawrence’s eyes flickered, and when Aiden Sheldon’s gaze came over, he quickly looked away and shifted his gaze to behind them.

Then he saw Ava Harlow and Spring Spencer.

The two of them, standing at an angle behind Aiden Sheldon, surprised Lawrence.

He looked further behind them but did not see Autumn Stetford or Ruby Sheldon.

Spring Spencer sensed someone looking at her, glanced in the direction of the gaze, and saw only Lawrence Winter’s pretty and precise profile.

Was it her looking at her?

Spring Spencer didn’t care, quickly withdrew her gaze, and turned to chat with Ava Harlow beside her.

Lawrence’s gaze quickly traversed Ava Harlow and Spring Spencer, looking toward the seats below.

As a result, he discovered that Mr. Yu’s other family of three was also there, sitting in the front row.

Mrs. Rong, wearing a black outfit, was in an expensive LV little black dress, with three-quarter sleeves showing the Hermès bracelet on her wrist.

Her two children were with her, the older son’s face expressionless, the youngest looking curiously around the church.

Mrs. Fang’s own two children were there too, standing with her beside Mr. Yu’s half-opened cherrywood rosewood casket.

Funerals abroad are like parties, without incense, fire basins, and paper money, only well-dressed guests and extravagantly decorated venues.

Everywhere there were white calla lilies and white carnations, large, standout calla lilies and clusters of small carnations interspersed throughout the small side hall, as if in a sea of flowers.

The church’s pastor officiated the funeral, introducing Mr. Yu’s deeds as usual.

No matter whether he was good or bad in life, now that he’s dead, naturally, everything was spoken of positively.

What Lawrence found ironic, though, was how Mr. Yu’s other family’s two children were here, sitting openly, yet the eulogy praised Mr. Yu as "a faithful husband who loved family and children."

Isn’t this high-class sarcasm?

When Lawrence heard this sentence, he deliberately observed Mrs. Fang, only to see her putting on sunglasses that covered half of her face, making it impossible to discern her eyes and expression.

Soon the eulogy ended, and everyone lined up to view Mr. Yu’s remains.

Lawrence didn’t like to see remains, so he didn’t go over but walked out alone instead.

Outside the side hall was a neatly maintained lawn, with white fences around it, also adorned with white calla lilies and white carnations, and white balloons fluttering.

Closer to the fence, there were four or five long tables, with boxes of food just ordered from restaurants on them, and waitstaff in white uniforms stationed behind each one, ready to serve everyone.

After the funeral, it was time for food and socializing, so it was indeed like a party.

When Lawrence came out, he found two people he knew there.

Autumn Stetford and Ruby Sheldon were both in black formal attire, talking under the big tree on the south side.

Seeing only Aiden Sheldon earlier, Lawrence thought he was the only one who came, unexpectedly Autumn Stetford and Ruby Sheldon also followed along.
