Chapter 1257

Author: Lean
Miranda stood to the side, supported by Jonathan, her face pale as she watched people come and go, paying their respects to Westley.

Zachary glanced at Westley’s portrait before shifting his gaze to the lavishly crafted coffin.

He picked up a lily and casually placed it in front of the coffin with the others.

He did not bow. He simply stood silently beside Jonathan.

Among those bidding farewell, there were both friends and foes.

The allies sighed over Westley’s untimely death.

The enemies wanted to take action but abandoned the idea the moment they saw Zachary.

Once the ceremony was over, Leanne held the portrait and led the way for Westley’s burial.

By the time everything was settled, it was already night.

In the end, only Zachary followed them back to the Howard family’s residence.

It was then that Carter finally appeared.

“I was busy today and couldn’t come earlier. I hope you can understand,” he said to Jonathan and Miranda.

Zachary let out a cold chuckle. “And now you’

  • Ex-husband’s Regret   Chapter 1828

    Tanner gave her a sharp glance.Gemma snuggled into her arms.Tanner patted her head. “You’re already so grown up.”Gemma said, “No matter how old I am, I’m still your daughter, Mom, and you’re embrace is still the warmest.”Tanner asked, “Not getting along well with your dad?”Gemma said, “Not really. He’s always on guard against Brody. Whenever he’s mentioned, Dad gets angry. He seems to get angry easily—no wonder you don’t like him.”Anthony was actually rarely angry.He always smiled.Those eyes looked tender even at dogs.It was also because of this that it was easy to distinguish him from his brother, Carter.Maybe men would naturally get upset when their daughters fall in love.Tanner’s father was the same back then. He didn’t want her involved in the Greyson family’s matters.He didn’t want her to be with Jonas either.First, the status issue—teacher and student was inappropriate.Their ages were also very different.But she still insisted on going her own way.

    The exam papers Yelar used were the ones they came up wit themselves, but Nelana used the national exam papers.The difficulty was different.If Gemma went back and forth between the two cities, then it would definitely affect her grades.Besides, if she really stayed with Brody, how could she focus on studying?Of course, Anthony didn’t say these things aloud, it would only deepen the conflict between the two of them.“Your father is right,” said Blake.Only then did Gemma accept the truth.Later, Gemma and Brody rarely contacted each other because Gemma was too busy with her studies.Brody was even busier than her.Blake kept his word and took her to Nelana to see Brody before school started.Anthony didn’t go along, he still had some matters to handle.Besides, he was too annoyed to see his daughter so attentive to another man.He didn’t go to avoid getting angry.He did want to see Tanner, but he guessed she didn’t want to see him.By now, at their age, whether or not

    Anthony was the first to disagree.Gemma then called Tanner.Tanner said, “You’re going to be busy throughout high school anyway. You two won’t see each other often anyway. So it doesn’t really matter if you come back or not. Since you finally got into a top high school, there’s no need for you to transfer back.”Gemma asked, “Mom, do you not want Dad to come back?”Tanner laughed, “Then are you willing to keep him there for me?”Gemma could only agree, “Alright then, since this is what you want.”Tanner comforted her, “You still have a long time. You can watch films or eat together. It’s only three years, it will pass quickly.”She comforted her daughter this way, but deep down she didn’t quite believe it.After all, she had originally hoped to have a lifetime with Jonas.She had hoped that after overcoming the storm at the Greyson family's hospital, they could be happy.But in the end...If she could, she really wanted Gemma to choose what she wanted.If she wanted to be

    Blake felt that there was no need to compete so intensely with others his age.But Brody wanted to see how far he could go relying on himself.After Gemma’s high school entrance exam, Brody also graduated.To avoid them being alone in the same space, their meetings and playdates were always at Yvonne’s hot spring resort.Gemma said to Brody, “Brody, if I get into a top high school, it’ll be quite far from yours.”Brody smiled. “You’ll be even busier in high school, and now that I’ve graduated, I won’t be going to school all the time anymore, unless I go for graduate course.”Gemma’s eyes lit up, and she cupped her face with both hands, asking, “Then you’ll be even busier.”Brody said, “I promise I’ll see you every day, no matter how busy I am.”Right now it was out of necessity, but when he could, he would naturally do something about the current situation.Gemma smiled, her dimples very playful, and she stuffed a French fry into his mouth. “Then you’d better keep your promise

    Yvonne gave him a sharp look. “Don’t you already know? Why ask?”Blake went inside first and hugged her. “I’m just worried that something might happen on your end, so I told reception to inform me.”Yvonne pushed him away and sat down on the sofa. She turned her head and saw Brody still standing by the door.“What, do you want me to invite you in?”Brody walked in, changed into slippers, and stood firmly in front of her.“What are you standing there for? You look like I’m going to have a go at you.”‘Are you?’ thought Brody.Brody didn’t dare to move.Blake pressed him down onto a sofa while he sat beside Yvonne. “Have you eaten?”Yvonne nodded.Blake said, “I haven’t eaten yet. Just finished handling some matters.”Yvonne nodded again. “I don’t really care.”Blake smiled faintly, “Are you willing to let me starve?”Yvonne nodded. “I am.”Brody was rendered speechless. ‘That’s just cruel.’Yvonne glanced over. “I heard that you were being a hero and saved a beauty? It se

    Blake added, “It seems that he doesn’t need that mouth of his anymore.”Sir Felton came to apologize because he was afraid of losing his only grandson.But in the end, that fool only angered them more.“We will leave Yelar immediately and never appear before you again. As for the harm caused to Miss Greyson, I will think of a way to make it up to her.”At that point, it was about settled.The person said reckless things, but Brody had beaten him badly too.It was enough for the Felton family to give up a piece of flesh and then leave Yelar.They each walked toward their own cars.Suddenly, Gemma said to Anthony, “I want to take care of Brody. He needs to keep his wound dry.”Anthony, still full of anger, shoved her into the car. “That’s not necessary.”Gemma was unwilling to leave. “It’s different when I take care of him than when someone else does.”“You’d better shut up, Gemma Mayes.”Brody wanted to say something, but Blake told him to get in the car.He went over to Ge
