Chapter 673
“Where did this madwoman come from? Get her out of here!” Not believing it, the people urged the servants to drive Harriet away.
Harriet gritted her teeth and planned to continue when she heard a snort from a middle-aged man.
“Miriam is my sister. I know her situation better than anyone else. Why are you spreading rumors and causing trouble at her funeral? What are you up to?” he said. Harriet sneered and shot back, “Miriam is my mother. I know her situation better than you. She is alive and well. What are you up to by holding a funeral for her?
“Ask Sadie about what she did to make Miriam lie in bed like a vegetable for many years. Ask her about how she made everyone believe that she was the daughter of the Bass family.” Harriet looked coldly at everyone present, especially at Sadie, who stood out in the crowd.
The crowd was stunned, but Sadie reacted quickly.
“Uncles, you have to stand up for me,” she said. “Miriam is my mother, not hers. She is talking nonsense.”
“Besides, don’t you know Miriam’s situation better than me? Harriet, you’re deliberately causing trouble here. You don’t want Miriam to rest in peace, right?
“Do you have to settle your grudges against me at the funeral?” Sadie said tearfully.
The others felt sorry for her, but Harriet detected provocation in her gaze. Harriet itched to rush over and tear her face off.
If it were not for Sadie, Harriet wouldn’t have been doubted by her family.
Sadie intended to slander Harriet again when a commotion broke out in the crowd.
Harriet looked over and saw the middle-aged man approaching with a sullen face.
He was Miriam’s brother, Felipe Bass.
“Someone, come and get her out of here!” Felipe ordered sternly.
No one objected to his decision.
“Bring more people and drive her away!”
“Yeah, this woman is rude and disrespectful to the deceased!”
Sarcastic voices came one after another.
Harriet frowned, trying to explain.
Suddenly, a figure appeared. It was none other than Lucas. Holding a silver needle in his hand, he shouted, “I dare you to touch Yvonne!”
His threat was not heeded. Lucas knew that no one would listen to him if he didn’t reveal his identity.
“Get lost! Stop causing trouble!” the servants barked.
Lucas gritted his teeth, ready to fight them, but they had the numbers.
Lucas made a quick decision, leading Harriet to rush toward a side door. But just as they were about to get out, their path was blocked.
