Snare of Love novel Chapter 461

Jeffery pulled Marina over with a sulky face. He'd be scolding Dolores already if it weren't for a lot of people here. He let out a cold snort, "Why must he be here? Jolene is his birth mother. Why must he mourn for this woman?"

Samuel blinked his eyes and looked at this mean uncle who used to be amiable. He instinctively stood in front of Dolores.

Kevin couldn't keep his composure and came over. Dolores stopped him, and said in a low voice, "Let's forget about all the disputes for now, and let her go peacefully."

Kevin clenched his fists. A wave of anger was burning inside his heart, angry that Matthew wasn't here.

Today would be the last day they see Victoria away. As her son, how could he not be here!

In the midst of the drizzle, under the priest's prayer, Victoria's ashes were buried. Everyone present didn't make a sound, rending a melancholy atmosphere at the scene.

Dolores stopped tearing. She just stood there and watched silently. However, the two children beside her were choking and sobbing.

They saw Dolores put their grandmother's black-and-white photo in front of the tombstone. At that moment, they knew their grandmother had left them forever, and they would never see her again.

Dolores rubbed the two children's heads and said, "Kowtow to grandma."

Everyone silently bowed three times in front of Victoria's tombstone and left accordingly. Before Dolores could walk away, Jeffery came up to her, "Matthew isn't here, so why are you here? Are you trying to show how filial you are? You should know your place by now."

Dolores stared at him with cold and sharp eyes, "I don't need you to tell me what I should or shouldn't do. And I sincerely hope that you have nothing to do with my mother's death."

Jeffery narrowed his eyes. He didn't expect Dolores would talk to him like that, and his face uncontrollably became sullen.

Jeffery's temper was bad and stubborn. Afraid that the two of them might quarrel, Marina quickly came over and pulled him away.

Dolores didn't bother to argue with him either. She held the hands of her two children and left.

The funeral session ended at noon. After Dolores bid all the guests farewell, she told Armand, "Send the two children back home first."

"Okay, call me if you need me." Armand took Simona in his arms, held Samuel's hand, and left the cemetery.

Dolores watched Armand took the two children away. Then, she turned around and looked at the tombstone behind her.

It was bleak and lonely.

With the passage of time, at this moment, Victoria's existence was erased without a trace.

Victoria would no longer exist in this world.

Boyce stood beside her and told her, "Jayden's sick, so Kevin sent him back."

Dolores only replied to him with a soft "um".

Her clothes were wet from the drizzling rain.

Boyce took off his jacket and put it over her shoulders.

He stood beside her, accompanying her.

Suddenly, a voice came from behind. "Can I pay my respects to her?"

Dolores turned around, and saw Charles behind her, sitting in a wheelchair, holding a bunch of white chrysanthemums in his arms. Tom stood behind his wheelchair, holding a black umbrella, standing at the bottom of the green stoned brick steps.

Dolores made way for him.

Charles was in a wheelchair, therefore it was inconvenient for him to go up the steps, so it was Tom who helped him put the bouquet of white chrysanthemums in front of the tombstone. He was deeply troubled with the problems in the company, therefore he looked very fatigued. When he heard of the news, the funeral was over when he rushed over.

“I have no other motives. I’m here on behalf of my foster father, Nathan. I hope she rest in peace.”

Charles sat straight and deeply bowed three times at the tombstone, looking solemn and respectful. He looked at the black-and-white photo of the woman in front of the tombstone. Even though time had passed, the woman still looked graceful and gentle, "Let me introduce myself to you once again. I'm Charles White, the foster child of Nathan. My foster father was only in love with a person all his life, and he never got married. If you see him over there, give him a chance, so that he won't be too lonely."
