Chapter 1070 Attending the Funeral
"Yeah, he's a good dad," Arya sighed.
Sadie was speechless, feeling a knot in her chest.
Micah smirked, pleased to see Sadie at a loss for words.
"They're flying back to Country E at 3 PM tomorrow," Andrew said out of nowhere.
The car went silent. They all knew Sadie probably wouldn't come back once she left.
"Mr. Clemens, can't you do something?" Rodolfo asked, anxious. "Can you keep Ms. James here?"
"I wish I could," Micah said, frustrated. He knew it was impossible, at least for now.
"What happened with Nick really messed things up. It's gonna take time to fix," Andrew said, trying to be rational. "Maybe when we go to pick up Mia in two months, there'll be a chance." "Let's hope so," Micah agreed. Sending Mia to Country E with Sadie was his way of buying time.
Two months should be enough to sort out the mess. By then, Sadie might see that the James family had their own struggles and reconsider.
Rodolfo sighed, keeping his thoughts to himself but feeling uneasy.
"Drive faster," Micah ordered, checking the time. It was Raymond's funeral today, and he had a lot to do.
"Yes, sir."
Sadie was working on the Sapphire Depths project but found out everyone who could make decisions was at Raymond's funeral, delaying her work. She was annoyed but couldn't take it out on them.
Just as she was about to leave, her phone rang. It was Tristan. "Tristan!"
"Go to Raymond's funeral."
"What?" Sadie thought she misheard. Tristan hated Raymond and held a grudge even after his death. Now he wanted her to attend the funeral?
"The memorial stuff are ready for you," Tristan added.
"Tristan, what are you up to?" Sadie asked, worried.
"What are you scared of?" Tristan shot back.
Sadie was stunned, unsure how to respond.
She worried Tristan would cause trouble at the funeral. She had hated Raymond too, but he was dead, and she wanted to let bygones be bygones. Plus, Raymond was still the kids' relative, and they would be there. She didn't want a scene. "Do as I say!" Tristan snapped and hung up.
Sadie frowned, feeling uneasy.
Just then, Annika got a call and reported, "Mr. James has prepared the flowers and gifts. They want us to meet at the foot of the mountain at 5 PM." "Okay," Sadie said. "Got it."
"Don't worry. I think Mr. James wants to show the James Group's grace and decency in front of the business community. He won't cause trouble," Annika reassured her.
"Check who's attending the funeral. Any media?" Sadie instructed.
"Yes." Annika made a call to replace out.
"Where are we going now?" Arya asked softly.
"Let's go back first," Sadie said, deep in thought. "Yes."
The car headed towards Frost Peak Mountain.
After investigating, Annika reported back, "Ms. James, the funeral attendees are mainly Clemens Group's board members and top executives, some of Raymond's friends, and a few business and political figures. The media are outside and not allowed in."
