Chapter: 771 Darian barked, his voice
He gestured at the priest on the pulpit and ordered his bodyguards, “Quickly, seize this Lunatic who is spouting such blasphemies!”
Regardless of his frantic and infuriated state, the bodyguards around him remained stationary, appearing to not have heard his commands.
Instead, they formed a circle around him. Darian recoiled in surprise, shouting, “What are you doing? Is this a mutiny? Don’t forget whose money you're pocketing!” His black-suited bodyguards remained impassive.
The priest looked at him and with a serene smile, suggested, “Mr. Anderson, if you find this hard to believe, you may verify it yourself at the coffin. See for yourself whose funeral it is today.”
Darian was dumbstruck. He glanced at the black coffin and felt a chill down his spine, but simultaneously, the prospect of Aimee being in it seemed too far-fetched to him.
He refused to believe it, so he bolted to the stage and peered into the coffin.
Upon seeing the occupant, he let out a shrill shriek, crumpled to the ground, and with a horror-stricken face, bellowed, “No! This can’t be! It is impossible! This woman has been dead for fifteen years!”
Ariana was equally taken aback at this revelation. Given Darian’s reaction, it seemed highly probable that the person inside the coffin was indeed Aimee.

Ariana recalled the difficulty faced by the pallbearers earlier when lifting the coffin. She speculated that it must be laden with preservatives, accounting for its extraordinary weight.

Thinking of such a possibility, Ariana’s heart raced.

Jasper too realized that something was wrong and he was about to rush to stop the priest. However, before he could take a step forward, he was pressed to the ground by the bodyguards.
Bodyguards standing next to the Anderson family suddenly turned and surrounded them.
“What are you doing?” Jasper asked angrily as he saw the guards had their guns pointed at them.
Brielle, who was standing near Jasper, was also surrounded. At the moment, the couple was too terrified to move a single muscle.
Some of the guests who were also shocked and scared by the scene, screamed. It was complete chaos. The only person who managed to keep her composure was Ariana.
Some guests even tried to run away, but the entrance was heavily guarded, so no one could enter or leave.
At this moment, the priest's voice rang out, “Don’t panic, everyone. Mr. Anderson just wants the funeral to proceed smoothly. You won't get hurt.”
At the mention of Mr. Anderson, Ariana Looked around anxiously, in the hope of seeing Theodore somewhere.
However, he was nowhere to be found.
