Mission To Remarry

Chapter 2056 The Universe Is Against Her 

Lucian calmed down the housekeeper and immediately called Cayden to have the latter prepare for handling the death at the Jarvis residence.

Roxanne didn't want to go back there that night.

With a father like that, there was no need to even see him one last time.

Lucian spent the whole night talking to Roxanne, and it was not until three or four in the morning that they felt sleepy.

After she fell asleep, he continued to gently hold her in his arms.

They didn't sleep for long, as there were still many things to do.

When Elias and Sonya learned the news, they didn't express much sadness or sorrow.

Instead, they pondered why Grant had committed suicide.

Is it due to guilt toward his ex-wife or because he wanted to protect his mistress? "Mom, Dad, let's keep Grant's funeral simple.We don’t need to make it public either.We'll pay our respects today and send him away tomorrow!"

Roxanne told the older couple.

"Okay, then the children should skip school today.Let's all go and pay our respects.After all, he was their grandfather."

Elias nodded in agreement.

The family made preparations according to Roxanne's wishes by handling everything simply.

The three children also had some understanding of their maternal grandfather's death.

"Mommy, I think Granddad must have gone to be with Granny.Don't be too sad!"

Estella comforted Roxanne.

Archie and Benny also nodded in agreement.

At that, Roxanne hugged the three children and kissed their cheeks.

From that day on, Roxanne left the Jarvis family for good and belonged only to the Farwell family.

In the afternoon, a wake was set up in the Jarvis residence.

Roxanne and the children went to pay their respects and handle the funeral, with Lucian and his parents accompanying them throughout the whole ordeal.

Ata certain hospital, Winnie was taking care of Yosef, whose two arms were broken.

They had been placed in a thick cast, and it would take him at least two months to recover.

Presently, Yosef's expression was grim as he despised Roxanne with every fiber of his being.

Suddenly, Winnie said, "Yosef, your father died last night!"

"what? Grant is dead?"

Yosef appeared shocked for a moment, but then he became expressionless again.

"It's good that he's dead.With a father like him, it doesn't make much of a difference whether he’s alive or dead."

Winnie didn't argue and didn't have much of a reaction herself.Text © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

"Mom, could you also notify Yuliana? Let her have something to be happy about!"

As Yosef thought of something, a cold smile appeared on his lips.

Winnie paused for a moment, then nodded.

"I'll tell her, but I don't think she cares.After all, ever since you two grew up, all Grant has brought is endless trouble.He hasn't acted like a father at all!"

After that, she immediately called her daughter to inform Yuliana about Grant's death.

As expected, Yuliana’s reaction was not much different from Yosef's.It was as if Grant’s death had nothing to do with her.

"Is he dead? That's good! Just don't come and bother us about the funeral.Anyway, with Roxanne being so rich now, she can give him a grand funeral! I've never considered this man my father in my entire life."Yuliana hung up the phone without even bothering to say another word more about it.A long while later, Winnie broke the silence with a question.

"Yosef, do you think Grant killed himself to protect me?" she murmured.

Yosef's mind wasn't on this at all.

He frowned and said, "Come on, why are you even thinking about that? If he really cared about you, why would he tell Roxanne the truth before he died? He could have taken that secret to his grave.Mom, are you sure that Roxanne won't be able to find a way to get back at you?"

"I'm sure there's no way she can do that.I mean, even Grant is dead now.It's like the universe is against her.Anyway, once you've recovered, we should sell the house and leave Horington!"
