Chapter 313 Lucy’s Funeral

Lincoln released the news of Lucy’s death to make an impact on the Russo family. It was a good time to acquire the Russo Group’s shares. Leroy received Zayla’s call. Before Zayla finished speaking, he immediately understood her meaning.

“Ms. Vargas, do you want to change your surname? After all, you are going to acquire the Russo Group’s shares.” Leroy was thoughtful. He proposed this because he was afraid that the Russo family would suspect Zayla.

“No.” Zayla replied decisively, “The surname Vargas is common in Houston.” The upper class in Houston had mocked Zayla because of her surname in those years.

At that time, they called Zayla a country girl from a poor mountain village with no power or background. They laughed at her and said Zayla wanted to get in with the Vargas family in Houston. The

surname “Vargas” was common in Houston, but the Vargas family was the only one! After hanging up, Zayla walked to the exit. As soon as she walked out of the airport, Eden walked up quickly.

“Ms. Vargas, I’ve been waiting for you for a long time. Didn’t you receive Mr. Russo’s call?” Eden asked.

Zayla shook her head and said, “I muted the phone tone. I just saw it.” Ms. Vargas, please get in the car quickly. Mrs. Russo’s funeral will start at nine o’clock. You were the daughter-in-law, so you need to enter the funeral hall early.”

“What did you say?” Zayla looked at Eden in astonishment, “Funeral?” It was only a few hours since Lucy passed away. Why did the Russo family start the funeral so soon? According to customs in Houston, the funeral would be held at least three days later.

“Simon told me that Lucy died suddenly. Wasn’t there an autopsy to determine the cause of death?” After getting into the car, Zayla asked Eden. Eden knew what Simon thought of Zayla, so he didn’t hide anything.

He said truthfully, “Mr. Russo originally wanted to do’an autopsy, but Palmer said that people could not be brought back to life after death. Mrs. Russo was dead. The cause of death is not important. Palmer thought autopsy was irreverent to Mrs. Russo’s body.”

“Mr. Russo agreed with Palmer’s opinion. The servant Lily said that Mrs. Russo cared about her appearance. Lily has taken care of Mrs. Russo for many years. She knows her best.” “Therefore, Mr. Russo gave up on the

autopsy. Palmer said that the funeral should be held as soon as possible.” Hearing Eden’s explanation, Zayla tightened her hands on the hem of her clothes. Palmer’s held Lucy’s funeral so soon and refused the autopsy just because he wanted to cremate Lucy and cover up his criminal evidence!

What Palmer said was so high-sounding. It gave people the illusion that he loved Lucy very much. Since he loved Lucy very much, why didn’t he be buried with his wife together? It was ridiculous to pretend to

be affectionate! Zayla tried her best to keep calm and continued, “The death of Lucy has been spread on the Internet. How is the situation of the Russo Group?” Hearing Zayla’s question, Eden didn’t

answer her as honestly as before. It was related to the Russo Group. As Simon’s assistant and general secretary, he had to be careful. I’m not too sure about the specific situation. Ms. Vargas, you should ask Mr. Russo about this.”

Zayla narrowed her eyes. She had already guessed that Eden would not rang. “We bring you the latest big news!” “It is reported that a person surnamed

Vargas has acquired exceeded 15% shares of the Russo Group! The person surnamed Vargas became a shareholder of the Russo Group, but its identity is unknown!” Eden’s hand was holding the steering wheel. When he heard the news, his hands tightened suddenly.

Zayla looked at Eden’s expression through the rearview mirror. She intentionally showed an anxious look, but she was very calm. Leroy was effective. Zayla believed in Leroy’s capability.

Then, Zayla’s worried tone sounded. Eden could tell something strange from her voice. “It seems that the Russo Group is not in a good situation.” Eden did not speak but remained silent.

Zayla didn’t ask any more questions. She sent a message to Leroy: [Give some clues to Palmer.] Three seconds later, Leroy replied: [OK.] Along the way, the atmosphere in the car

was low. After a while, they arrived at Houston Funeral Parlour. In the funeral hall, there were many yellow and white chrysanthemums. These flowers’ quality was excellent. There was not a single wilted flower. The funeral hall was grandly arranged and showed the Russo family’s respect

for Lucy and Palmer’s deep love for his wife. But Zayla only saw the cruelty and coldness of the Russo family. It was irony and ridiculousness! At this time, Palmer was standing in front of the big centerpiece of Lucy’s funeral. He was dressed in a black suit and kept wiping his tears.

Zayla sneered when she saw this scene. She cursed, “Crocodile tears.” “Why didn’t you answer the phone?” Simon walked to Zayla and asked. He looked serious and sullen.

“Didn’t Eden report it in time? My phone was mute. When I noticed your call, I had already seen Eden, so I didn’t call back to

you. After all, you are busy now.” Zayla. explained. But her reasonable explanation still made Simon doubt her. “Did you meet Lincoln?” “No.” Zayla’s expression was calm.

“Even if I meet him, I’ll regard him as a stranger.” Then, she looked at the centerpiece of Lucy’s funeral.

I’ll bow to Lucy first.” Zayla found an appropriate reason and temporarily stopped Simon’s speculation and persistent question. Her eyes were full of tears. Zayla went to

the centerpiece of Lucy’s funeral and bowed. “I’m sorry, Lucy.” won the “I found it too late.” “Farewell to the past.” Zayla said silently. Eden was reporting to Simon nearby.

“Mr. Russo, several shareholders of the Russo Group arrived. The mysterious person bought 15% shares of the Russo Group. They want to talk to you about this matter.’ “Well.” Simon responded.

There were still three hours before the start of the funeral. There was enough time for Simon to talk to the shareholders.

Simon walked away. At this moment, Palmer suddenly walked beside Zayla. “You took advantage of this accident and bought 15% shares of the Russo Group! Zayla, how dare you!”
