Daddy, Mommy had been in Prison novel Chapter 331

Everyone was looking at Georgia.

Everyone realized Dora Simpson was only an illegitimate child and knew that her words held no weight.

However, they would take any chance they could for the gossip.

By the way, Dora mentioned inheritance, which was simply the beginning of the family inheritance battle.

Apart from the nosy people, those who were attending the funeral were very concerned about who would run the Simpson family’s business in the future? Who would inherit the estate?

These were all related to the continuation of the cooperation with all those partners in the long run.

This was also related to how other families would deal with the members of the Simpson family in the future. Everyone wanted to know who would inherit the core property, to know who they should avoid offending.

“Auntie, Robert and I have got married, we got our marriage certificate, and we just haven't held the wedding yet. I'm sorry, Robert didn't tell you about the good news in time.”

Sierra suddenly spoke in front of everyone, and hundreds of people in the funeral began to whisper.

As everyone thought that Robert and Sierra had not officially held their wedding, so there would be a long tug of war for Robert’s property distribution.

Of course, if Robert had his will, this matter would not be troublesome.

It was just that something happened to Robert at a young age, and he might not necessarily leave a will.

What's more, so far, the Simpson family had not said anything about his will at all.

On the contrary, after Robert left, all of his subordinates and assistants were following Sierra's orders, and Sierra was in charge as if she was the central figure of the entire Simpson family.

Everyone was thinking, what would Sierra do in the future?

Everyone guessed that Sierra and Robert were not officially married, and there was no legal protection of their rights. Being just a fiancée, approved by Robert’s family and friends, was not enough for her to inherit much of their estates and properties.

But right now, Sierra publicly admitted in front of everyone that she and Robert had actually been officially married, which meant that she was a legitimate spouse of his and the first heir.

Everyone was in shock. The people whose expressions changed the most were those from the Simpson family.

They thought that Sierra would just show up at the funeral and that was it. Once the distribution of the inheritance began, they would find a way to remove his fiancée out of the Simpson family.

Nobody expected Sierra would announce that she and Robert officially got married and had their certificate, and people from the Simpson family all looked surprised.

Sierra glanced at the audience, and subconsciously stared at Georgia for several times.

She was expecting an uncomfortable and painful look on this woman's face, but Georgia remained very calm, so calm that Sierra couldn't help but panic a little.

“Are you kidding me? You said you married Robert. Where is the marriage certificate?”

Dora didn't want to believe this fact. Instead, she asked with a sneer.

“Auntie, I don’t say things without a proof. I certainly have the marriage certificate in my hand, but it's Robert’s funeral. Today we are here to pray for him to rest in peace. It’s not suitable for quarreling now. I don’t want Robert’s funeral to become a joke. Auntie, if you keep shouting like this again, I can only ask the security to take you out.”

Sierra’s words sounded threatening, and she didn’t appear to be sympathetic, looking very detached and disengaged. She just seemed to be a pain in the neck.

Everyone murmured inside their mind. They had assumed Sierra was a weak beauty, but she seemed pretty difficult to deal with.

“Okay, this is the mourning hall, so I would keep my silence. Anyway, God will see the unfairness. I'd like to see who the liar is.”

After Dora finished her sentences, she glanced at Georgia again, and then returned to her position and sat down.

Then, the circumstance had completely changed after Sierra gave her warning and her dozens of bodyguards came in to maintain the order of the hall. There was no one single person in the funeral who dared to make any trouble.

Everything was carried out in accordance with the schedule. Georgia was looking forward to it at the beginning but gradually she could only feel desperate.

On the way to here, she had been expecting that Robert would show up in the mourning hall.

Imagining he told everyone that he was still alive, and the funeral was just an artful deception.

However, the funeral was almost over, but he still did not appear to be alive.

Elsie noticed Georgia was looking a lot paler as the time went by, so she took Georgia's hand and comforted her.

“Robert never recovered his memory. I believe that woman, Sierra, tricked him to marry her. Don't feel sad about this matter.”

Elsie thought that Georgia would feel uncomfortable in the mourning hall because Sierra announced she and Robert got married. Georgia would definitely not be able to bear this kind of thing.

“Elsie, it’s not because of that. There is one thing I can't say for now. I want to wait and see how many people will stand up and speak up.”

Georgia and Robert’s marriage certificate was well-kept in her safe, and Georgia didn’t believe whatever Sierra said.

Either Sierra was bluffing now, or Sierra had made a fake marriage certificate, or Robert deceived Sierra and made a fake marriage certificate.

Anyway, Georgia believed that she was the one and only one who married Robert.

“Georgia, don’t force it. If that happens to me, I will feel uncomfortable. You don’t have to pretend to be fine in front of me. They will go to the cemetery later. Maybe, you don’t go? Looking at Sierra's behavior right now, she would do anything to whoever gets in her way. There’s nothing else we can do if her bodyguards are around. Let’s go home and take a good rest.”

Georgia didn't give too much explanation. She understood it was not the best time to speak up the truth about her marriage certificate with Robert.

For a long time, she had doubts about this woman, Sierra, but now God has given her this golden opportunity.

When Robert’s death was confirmed, she wanted to see what Sierra would do.

“I'm fine, but no matter what happened, I have to stand by his side for this last trip.”

After Georgia finished speaking, Elsie did not continue to persuade her.

After the memorial service in the mourning hall was over, Georgia drove to the cemetery with others in a car.

There wasn’t much for them to do for the cemetery, so everyone stood quietly in front of the cemetery and bid farewell to the dead.

Georgia took Annie's hand. It was freezing outside, the cold breeze blew across everyone's faces, and the wind seemed to have a trace of bleakness.

A few moments later, Sierra turned around and made her speech.

“I’m very grateful to everyone for coming to my husband’s funeral today. Today is a sad day. Now we have gone through the last trip, and you don’t need to stay here anymore. I want to stay alone for a while. I want to speak to Robert alone.”

Since Sierra said something like that, everyone started leaving.

Others left one after another. Jason, Jasper, Selena, Riley all walked towards Georgia, as if they wanted to talk to her.

Hours ago, everyone was sitting in silence, and no one spoke.

“Let's find another place to talk later, Annie wants to talk to Wesley, and I will take her to see Wesley.”

Everyone nodded and sat in lounge room downstairs to rest.

As Sierra did not leave, Wesley obviously waited for his mother to come down to the lounge room.

Seeing Georgia holding Annie's hand over, Wesley was a little surprised.

“Annie said, she wants to talk to you alone, can you talk to Annie for a while? Annie has been crying so much these days.”

Wesley had never seen Annie’s such amiable look. She usually ignored him. Looking at Annie’s swollen eyes, Wesley suddenly felt his heart sore, he sobbed a little then nodded.

In the next second, Wesley stretched out his hand, and then took Annie's hand.

The two children held each other's hands and looked very close.

Georgia and the bodyguard who protected Wesley backed away a few steps, allowing the two children to have a good chat.

Wesley was other woman’s kid. Georgia should be jealous, and shouldn't like Wesley talking to Annie.

But she didn’t know why, whenever she saw Wesley, Georgia felt heart-warming. She liked this little child.

The grievances of adults should not be implicated on the children – Georgia found a reason for herself.

In fact, she didn't even realize that she liked Wesley a little.

“Dad said, I should call your sister, Annie. Daddy can't see that the two of us made up, I am so sad...”

Wesley said this while crying. The two children still held each other's hands, Annie turned around and hugged Wesley.

“Hug me, maybe it will make you feel better. Daddy now sees us so close and sees us getting along like real brother and sister. Maybe daddy will come back because of it? Maybe we should listen to daddy more? Did we do something wrong at the beginning? No. It was me. I did something wrong. I kept ignoring you. Maybe daddy was sad about this and never come back anymore.”

Annie said dejectedly.

“Annie, why do you think so? Daddy wouldn’t blame us. He loves us the most. Daddy is a nice person. Even if we do something wrong, daddy will never blame us. But now I only I want to hug daddy, I want to talk to daddy, why can't I do this anymore? Why did daddy leave us...”

Wesley was crying with tears in his eyes. He somehow looked like a little kitten, Annie kissed Wesley on the cheek.

“From now on, I am your big sister. I will protect my younger brother. Anytime Wesley feel sad, Wesley will tell me about it. We will protect each other from now on, and we will be sister and brother and care about each other, right?”

“Yes!”

Wesley nodded vigorously, as the babbling of the two kids went on.

A few moments later, Georgia saw Sierra walking towards this side from a distance.
