Rosie chuckled. “Some are here to pay their last respects, but some, like you, are here to capitalize on
others’ death!”
“Mrs. Rosie, that’s too much!”
Rosie added, “You shouldn’t take credit for my treatment in the family. I only have Mr. Javier and
Madam Anne to thank. Besides, it is Mr. Javier who pays me, not you! I have nothing to do with you.”
In the heat of the moment, Rosie spat in front of Sophia while the onlookers were still reeling from the
shock of the drama of a maid speaking out against Sophia.
At that moment, some level-headed reporters said, “She’s not wrong. A funeral for a victim of sudden
death should be kept low-profile. Because of that, Ms. Alyssa and Mr. Beckett have not invited the
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtmedia to the funeral. They care about sending off the victim more than shaping their image.”
“True. I have never seen anyone in Solana City who’s more attention- seeking than Mrs. Beckett.”
“Mrs. Rosie is right. Mrs. Beckett is capitalizing on the victim’s death.”
Sophia fumed when she realized the public opinion had turned against her, but she had to keep her
cool in front of the reporters. She decided to keep up the act, playing the victim.
Turning white, she pressed against her chest, looking like she was about to faint. She accused Alyssa,
“How could you judge me unfairly? Ms. Alyssa, we did not get along when you were married to Jasper.
I admit that we ran into conflicts, but it’s all in the past because you divorced Jasper. Why would you do
whatever it takes to
at back at me?”

Alyssa’s expression hardened when Sophia brought up the divorce again. Similarly, Jasper’s blood
boiled at Sophia’s remark.
Eyes gleaming with malice, Sophia looked close to tears. She added, ” You knew Jasper was into
Liana. They couldn’t marry because his grandpa disapproved of their relationship. Even then, you
chose to marry Jasper.
“Alyssa, the divorce was a matter of time, especially because you insisted on getting married. How
could you blame that on me? You’re a bully!”
Sophia attempted to create falsehoods to divert attention from
herself. What a crafty woman!
The reporters were continuously surprised by the revelation of the Becketts’ private lives. They had
their doubts, wondering if Sophia was unfairly blamed because Alyssa wanted revenge.
Silas and Cyrus could not hold back. Even Axel, who was hiding in a corner, was ready to make a
move on Sophia.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSilas offered, “Jonah, I’ll send some men to shoo the reporters. We can’t let this happen. There will be
rumors about Lyse and Jasper’s divorce.”
Jonah stopped him when he was about to leave. “Silas, you can’t.”
Silas and Cyrus were puzzled. “Why not?”
“It’s too late to stop the media from reporting. I bet some of them are hosting live streams. If we
forcefully kick them out, we will only make Lyse appear guilty of the accusation and fall into Sophia’s
trap.”
Jonah took a deep breath and explained sternly, “Sophia is setting Lyse up. If we mishandle the
situation, we would appear to be
itting to Sophia’s accusations.”

Silas and Cyrus clenched their fists in a fit of anger. They were willing to risk their careers and beat up
Sophia at that moment
