Chapter 1674
Damon was the ruler of that place, where riots did occur. The existence of such chaos was entirely at his discretion.
Cole and Grace had perished in a border not Clearly, it was all part of a sinister plot
She had thought that by eliminating Wendy, her life would finally attain some semblance of peace. To harbor the
intent to kill, and then to act upon it, required a certain ruthlessness However, she suddenly felt that she was
nothing compared to Damon He had never mentioned it, not even the slightest hint And just like that, two lives were
extinguished
She hadn’t brought back Wendy’s body back, and now she understood why Damon had intended to wipe out the
entire Alonso family from the start.c2
Presley instructed Robin to help Phoebe prepare a funeral for the Alonso family. Hardly anyone attended the
funeral, and the bodies had not been
recovered
Azriel had greeted Damon and requested the bodies as a form of closure for Phoebe.
With the deceased gone, everything seemed to fade like dissipating clouds, Chloe gave her consent, and Damon did
not object.
When Azriel handed over the urns to Phoebe, Phoebe accepted them with a calm demeanor, but her eyes were still
tinged with an unshed red.
Despite their cruelty, they were still her family, and had caused her pain, injustice, and unrest. They had always
revolved around Wendy, and in the end even in death, it was because of her.
Azriel gently tousled her hair, biting his lip, at a loss for words. Some things, he would have to keep buried within
him. He would never reveal the truth to her in this lifetime

their heads in sorrow. At least the ashes had been retrieved
They offered Phoebe words of solace and gradually dispersed
Ava hatt asked Barbara to attend the funeral. After all, their kinship was common knowledge.
Barbara and Phoebe were not on good terms, and she thought they wouldn’t exchange more than a few words
throughout the entire process. However, Barbara remained by her side until the very end.
As people came and went, Phoebe stood at the entrance. Her gaze was steady.
“Did anyone from the Harper family come? Barbara suddenly asked, her tone dripping with sarcasm. “I’m referring
to Damon and that woman, Chloe
“They have no reason to come. Everything Wendy did was disgusting, enough to make anyone sick. Why should
they mourn for her?”
Phoebe’s words elicited a cold laugh from Barbara “Do they have no reason to come, or do they not dare to?”
“What do you mean?”
Barbara was clad in a khaki winter coat Her makeup was subtly applied, and her red lips curved into a cynical smile
“Chloe killed Wendy Cole and Grace were said to have died in a riot, but even if that place was chaotic, it couldn’t
be in a state of constant upheaval, How unlucky would they have to be to encounter a riot the moment they
arrived? Everything was a setup. Their real intention was to eradicate the Alonso family completely Phoebe, I
understand if you feel nothing for Grace and Wendy, but wouldn’t you resent the person who murdered your
father?
Phoebe remained silent for a moment before breaking into a smile “Don’t provoke me. Accusing someone of
murder without any evidence is rather blatant Moreover, even if what you said is true, they brought it upon
themselves. No one knows what kind of people they were better than do They got what they deserved If Wendy
hadn’t harbored the intent to kill in the first place, none of this would have happened. It’s simply karma. Besides, Im
powerless Even if I wanted to seek revenge, I wouldn’t be able to You should give up on that idea”
Barbara narrowed her eyes. “You lost your family and your home, yet you’re content with your situation You’re truly
worthless
Phoebe was unperturbed “Wendy wasn’t worthless, yet shes dead now its important to know your place
Unfortunately, she didn’t. She pursued–things that werent hers, so she deserved her fate. Let me give you a piece
of advice, don’t be too greedy, or you might lose what you already have.”
She had once accompanied Cole and Wendy to a state banquet in Y Country, and she could easily see through Ava
and her daughters intentions. Just like Grace and Wendy their insatiable greed made them covet things that didn’t
belong to them
Barbara hadn’t expected the seemingly frail and helpless Phoebe to be so sharp–tongued She was caught off guard
and ended up being infuriated. “You’re a lost cause What a pity for Cole to have a daughter like you‘
“He was pitiful, to begin with, Phoebe retorted The heir he devotedly groomed turned out to be the one who led the
Alonso family to ruin and brought about his death. With his business gone and his life taken, who could be more
pitiful than him?”
Barbara sneered, and her composure was shattered She chose to leave
Not long after her departure, Damon and Chloe arrived Barbara’s words had indeed affected her, but everything
she had retorted was also true Her family had brought it upon themselves. However, when she found herself face–
to–face with Damon and Chloe, she couldn’t help but feel a bit uneasy.
“You’re here”
It was already dark, and the funeral had quieted down.

Chloe stood at the entrance without entering. Instead, she took out a document from her bag and handed it to
Phoebe “Here are the shares you asked me to keep, as well as the ones I obtained The Alonso family is now yours
Take care of it.”
Phoebe stared at the document in front of her, unsure of what to do. I have no experience in managing a company
You know I can’t run a company

Chloe nodded. “If there’s anything you don’t understand, you can come and ask me. If you trust me, that is”
Phoebe managed a smile. The Alonso family was in your hands, and now you’re giving it back to me without any
conditions. Why shouldn’t I trust you? | really don’t have the ability to manage such a large business. My father
never let me touch these things. I’m not up to it.”
Take your time
Chloe stuffed the documents she held into Phoebe’s hands. Taking a final glance inside, she gently patted Phoebe’s
hand.
Take good care of yourself”
Phoebe noticed Chloe had no intention of going in. She nodded without saying much. There were too many reasons
for her not to go in. Going in was contrary to her style.
Regardless of the reasons, she watched as they slowly faded into the distance. Phoebe slowly clenched the
documents in her hands
In the end, the Alonso family was back to her hands. She thought, perhaps, this was what Cole had desired.
If he were alive, the Alonso family would never come back in this lifetime
When Chloe entered the Alonso household, she actually saw Barbara Phoebes slightly awkward demeanor upon
seeing her didn’t go unnoticed.
