The press nodded with approving looks. “Though born into money,
Ms. Bethany remains beautiful on the inside and out.”
“As Linny’s former employer, | should attend Linny’s funeral.”
Shannon wailed in front of the cameras.
The press asked, “What are your plans for Linny?”
“Linny died unexpectedly, but we could have done a better job at monitoring every employee's well-being. We
are partly to blfor
this. The least we can do is offer Linny’s family compensation. We
can’t bring Linny back to life, but she can rest well, knowing that her
family will be well taken care of.”
The press sighed at Shannon’s generosity, their opinion of Shannon
changing for the better.
Shannon and Bethany, with bodyguards in tow, entered the funeral
hall.
The press followed suit, poking their cameras into the venue.
Suddenly, Shannon and Bethany froze.
The Thompsons stood before them.
Their chilling presence casts dread over Shannon and Bethany.
Bella and Justin stood side by side, their expressions equally furious. They wanted nothing more than to get rid of
these vile women.
Shannon managed to hold it together, but the intensity of Bella’s gaze
Chapter 966
The Salvadors’ fleet of fancy cars stacked outside the gate, and the bodyguards exited the vehicle to form a
human barrier to push the reporters back. The wife and daughter of Salvador Corporation's
chairman had to keep up with appearances.
In the car, Shannon took out her compact and powdered her lips, trying to make her well-maintained skin look
haggard.
“Mom, do we have to attend the funeral?”

Bethany looked out the tinted window. Bella and her resourceful brothers’ presence in the funeral hall sent
shivers down her spine. We didn’t get anywhere during the last few times we tried to outdo her. In fact, she
humiliated us.
“Linny, the traitor, just died. Shouldn't we fly under the radar for now?”
“Fly under the radar? Hmph! Do you think it's necessary at this point?”
Shannon slammed the compact powder shut. Her pale face, paired with her menacing expression and grim eyes,
made her look like a ghost. “If Bella has proof, why didn’t she cknocking on our door days ago? We heard
nothing from her because she had no leads or proof to charge us with.”
Bethany nodded pensively.
That was true. Knowing Bella, she would have gone after Salvador Corporation if she had proof. She would not
wait until now.
“The press is also aware that Linny is a maid of the Salvador family. As the lady of the house, | should make an
appearance and demonstrate my friendly side. | can’t let the media think we are a heartless family.”
Chapter 966
Shannon was manipulative. “I need to show my face at the funeral to
rebuild my reputation.
“Do you have the money for Linny’s family?”
“I got it, but why should we give away so much, Mom?” Bethany was
reluctant.
“I won't hesitate to give the money away to keep the old lady’s mouth
shut.”
Hiding the horrifying truth was paramount.
Shannon and Bethany stepped out of the car, composing themselves for a public appearance. As seasoned
actresses, they knew how to
turn on the waterworks for the cameras.
“Mrs. Salvador, rumor has it that the victim was your personal maid.
Is that true?” A journalist shoved a microphone up Shannon's face.
Shannon wiped her tears with a handkerchief. “Yes. Linny was my
maid. She was a kind soul and diligent in her service. My whole fami
was fond of her.”
“Although Linny was primarily responsible for caring for my sister, |
had a sisterly relationship with Linny. We had been nothing but nice to her.” Bethany wailed exaggeratedly.
Bethany would not pass up a chance to take a dig at Carrie.

sucked the life out of Bethany.
“Today is about the deceased, Ms. Thompson.”
Shannon looked at Bella with tearful eyes. “Regardless of our history,
| ctoday to pay my last respects to Linny.”
Bella took a step forward.

The other members of the Thompson family and security detail did the same. Shannon and Bethany turned pale
and recoiled in fright.
Even the press backed away.
Bella and Justin coff as pretty intimidating.
The Thompson brothers stood behind Bella, a source of protection
and assurance for her.
Due to the nature of his work, Drew could not be seen on camera. He hid in a corner and sullenly watched
everything unfold.
However, Drew was ready to destroy anybody who would so much a
touch Bella.
“Everybody is welcto the funeral, but you,” Bella said, her eyes burning with resentment.
“Why? Why can’t we enter?” Bethany asked a silly question.
“You have the nerve to ask. You don’t deserve to be here.”
The crowd was shocked.
Bella sure said the darndest things.
“You're a bully, Bella! Don’t take it there!” Bethany turned ashen.
Chapter 967
Out of habit, Bethany tried to put her finger up Bella's face, but Shannon was quick to grab her hand. “We only
mean well, Ms. Thompson. All we want is to pay our last respects.
“This is not tfor our personal feud. It's embarrassing to fight here
and now. It's disrespectful to the deceased.”
Shannon spoke with such conviction that Bella seemed like an
unreasonable brat.
Bella curled her lips, her eyes narrowing on the woman's pretentious
face. “You're disrespecting the deceased. Your presence here is an insult to the deceased.
“Shannon, Bethany, what goes around comes around. You know what you did to Linny. You better watch out for
karma.”
A wave of shock and horror swept through the crowd.
