Chapter 301 - Farewell, Grandpa. (1/2)
[Yue family mausoleum]
Several days had passed the wake of Sebastian Yue was held smoothly with the assistance of Marga and Marjorie. Meanwhile, Seraphina didn't utter a word after her last words with Logan Jin. No one can make a conversation with her as all she did for the past days was stare at her grandfather's coffin or the huge photograph of her grandfather hanging on the wall.
Though Seraphina broke several traditions when holding a traditional funeral, there weren't as major to be considered bad luck, hence, considering that Sebastian Yue was her only blood-related family, it was understandable that she was in shock and pain.
As usual, Sebastian Yue's remains were cremated and placed in a sophisticated urn. Placing Sebastian Yue's urn beside her grandmother's urn, while another two urns of Seraphina's parents on the rest on the next spot; she paid her respect for the last time.
While she was silently inside the mausoleum, Riggs, Rex, Ace, and Wren was patiently waiting for her outside. Usually, when they were all together, chaos was always bound to happen alas, this time, none of them uttered a word.
If anyone of them who had the grimmest expression and sullen mood since the news of Sebastian Yue's death, it was Wren Tanaka. Among them, aside from Seraphina, Wren could be mistaken as a family member due to unmistakable grieving. However, none of his confidants inquired thus far knowing that it would be inappropriate to probe at this time.
Moreover, the last seven days of the wake was the most important days to be held hence, they all tried to give assistance as much as they could until this day. Now that almost every guest left, they could finally have a breather and relax a little… or so they thought.
When Seraphina exited the Yue family mausoleum, four of her men stood properly. Just then, Henry Man with his trusted assistant came from the other side. Reaching Seraphina who was unbothered as she kept her slow strides towards her ride.
”Chairwoman --” However, just as Henry Man spouted her address, Seraphina raised her hand gesturing him to shut up; which he deliberately abided without question.
”Don't look for me anymore.” For the first time, Seraphina coldly spoke before entering her ride without giving Henry Man a chance to respond.
Again, her words were simple yet too complex. Henry Man already got her permission and authority to lead Yue International Empire hence, he was only there to check on Seraphina's condition. For the last few days, he didn't have the chance to speak with her or rather, no one had. Alas, the first words she uttered were not to look for her? It was baffling and concerning at the same time as Henry Man was well-informed about her love to her grandfather.
Before entering on the driver's seat, Rex glanced at Henry Man's dumbfounded front before he flatly reassured, ”Don't worry, CEO Man. The chairwoman will be alright.”
Henry Man moved his gaze on the exquisite man that Seraphina trusted before nodding in understanding. Since he doesn't know what's this man's real identity and Henry Man speculated that all the people that was personally hired by Seraphina were not as simple as they claim to be, there isn't really anything he could say about that.
