Power of Money
Chapter 549

"Who are these people?"

Jason frowned. From this distance alone, the temperament of this group of people was definitely not ordinary.

Coupled with their clothes and their quiet walking steps, two words came to Jason's mind: black...

David also came up with a solution at the door of the mourning hall, which was a group of uninvited guests.

With his experience, he was more aware of the identity of these people than Jason.

However, this group of people couldn't wait to appear in his mourning hall before Lawrence's bones turned cold. It was a little outrageous!

David got up angrily and was about to go downstairs.

"Father!" Lin Musheng called out.

Seeing this, Jason quickly followed him and asked, "Dad, it's not appropriate for you to go to such an occasion. Let me go."

"You?" David stopped and looked back at Jason with some concern. He said, "Let me go. Your mother and I came today to mourn your grandfather. Besides, there are many directors in the group here. They will come to me if I don't show up."

Mary also stood up and said coldly, "I want to see who is so bold to make trouble here in front of the Shens and Chens. Even if my uncle is dead, don't forget that I am still alive!"

After that, without giving David and Jason any time to react, he turned and went downstairs.

David was very fond of his beloved wife. Seeing this, he told Jason to stay here and didn't move, so he hurriedly followed her.

Jason stood in the attic on the second floor. After David and his wife left and walked to the entrance of the mourning hall, the people of the Shens and Chens, who had been waiting nearby for a long time, stepped forward one after another, neatly lined up behind them, and stepped into the mourning hall.

Seeing that there were so many people around his parents to protect him, Jason's heart, which had been raised a little, was temporarily at ease.

The most important thing is that Uncle Dong is in this group of people.

Jason looked at the lively mourning hall, which was silent at the moment. He took out his mobile phone and dialed a number. "Master Qin."

The phone was connected, and Luther's weak voice instantly sounded in his ear.

"Where are you?" Jason asked.

"Lakeside Villa," Luther whispered.

"Hasn't the meeting been over yet?" Jason was stunned for a moment. It was already at this time. Why hadn't she left yet?

"Well... Master Qin, it's not convenient for me to talk now. You should be serious about my grandfather's family now, right?" Luther's words were somewhat evasive, as if he was deliberately avoiding Jason's question.

"Yes, you already know?" Jason said with a sigh.

"Phew..." Luther took a deep breath and said in a low voice, "I know you have a lot to ask me now, but I can't answer you. I'm with my grandmother now. She asked me to stay here for a few more days. I'm afraid that I can't help you with things outside. And during this time, don't call me again. I'm very busy and I don't have time. See you."

Pa!

The phone was hung up.

Holding the phone in his hand, Jason stood in the same place for a long time.

What did Luther mean?

"Is there a change in the Chans situation? Or has he changed his mind?"

Jason shook his head. Based on his understanding of Luther, he would not overthrow what he believed yesterday in such a short time unless he was in trouble now.

What kind of trouble could it be?

Jason sat down and recalled carefully what Luther said before hanging up the phone.

"With grandma..."

Jason's eyes flashed, and at the same time, he heard a noise in the mourning hall downstairs. His heart suddenly sank, and he got up and rushed down to the mourning hall. At this moment, in the mourning hall.

Lawrence's body was placed in the transparent glass coffin. His black and white afterimages were hung on the wall, with wreaths and rings on both sides. In the brazier in front of the ice coffin, the flames were mixed with black ashes rolling in the air. In the mourning hall, there was a strong smell of burning paper.

At this moment.

Mary stood in front of the ice coffin, coldly staring at Leonard and the group of men in black behind him. She berated him in a low voice, "Leonard, you're a son, yet you want to cremate your own father's body in front of everyone. Are you still human?"

Just now, before Mary and David could hang the body in front of Lawrence's body, Leonard ordered the people behind him to carry the body together with the ice coffin and send it to the crematorium. Out of anger, Mary even began to doubt whether Leonard had done this with other intentions. After all, Lawrence's death was so sudden and he cremated the body in such a hurry that Mary, who was very nervous, smelled a different smell.

Mary's words caused a heated discussion among the Shen family standing behind her.

"That's right. The corpses of the dead haven't turned cold yet, and they haven't even prepared the most basic parts of the mastiff, yet they want to cremate the corpses. Isn't that a bit too rushed?"

"If that's the case, why bother setting up this mourning hall? You want me to come all the way here just so that I can send the dead to be cremated? That's too unruly."

"And he did it in front of Mrs. Chan. Does he look down upon our Shen Family?"

The people who spoke were the confidants who followed David and his wife to mourn.

It was all because of the Shen's Group. They used to have a good relationship with Lawrence, and they were very dissatisfied with what Leonard was doing now.

"Hehe, since you all know that Lawrence is my biological father, and I am his son, as a filial son, I will naturally not allow my father's remains, which have been destroyed by the river, to be exposed to the light of the three suns. I will allow you to look around, discuss, and insult my father's soul in heaven." Leonard looked at the crowd in front of him with a poker face and said calmly.

"Bullying the souls of the dead?" Mary frowned. "Since you're worried that we'll humiliate the souls of the dead, why did you build this mourning hall, place this coffin, place your father's body inside, and inform us to hang it?"

Leonard shook his head. "I didn't arrange it. Everything you've seen in your eyes is done by the housekeeper Fobe. I didn't know anything about it when I came here. Like you, I've only been here for a short time. I've already scolded Fobe. Now, you should let me carry father's body away, right?"

All of a sudden, there was a sudden silence.

In fact, Leonard's words made sense. Lawrence's body was swollen too much. Because of the corpse Qi caused by drowning, his whole body expanded a full circle, his skin was pale, and his mouth was turned upside down, just like a drowned ghost. Many people were shocked when they saw him for the first time when they came in, and some people even almost spat out on the spot. The expression on their faces was so ugly that they couldn't imagine how ugly it was.

It was no wonder that Leonard would be so angry. After all, when any child saw someone showing such an attitude in front of their own father's body, they were afraid that they would feel bad.

"In this case, let's ask Mr. Chan to send Mr. Chan's body to cremate as soon as possible. We should rest in peace this morning so as not to disturb the souls of the dead..."

There was an elder of Shen's Group who used to have a good relationship with Lawrence. After hearing this, he sighed.

Leonard nodded to him and then turned his gaze to Mary. "May I ask, sister, can I take father's body away and cremate it now?"

Mary was slightly stunned. She didn't expect things to develop to this point, but she felt that Lawrence's death was a little strange. At this moment, she heard her husband, who had been standing by her side, say lightly, "It's just a piece of cake."

"Thank you, Brother-in-law."

Leonard nodded. The men in black behind him immediately filed out to the edge of the ice coffin. They bent over and lifted the corner of the coffin, ready to carry the coffin and the body out together. "Wait a minute."

But at this time, David suddenly clapped his hand on the ice coffin. He glanced at the group of people around him and asked, "Judging from your appearance, you don't seem to come from Nandu, do you?" Leonard was stunned and hurriedly said, "These are all my father's domestic slaves when he was Linton City. They never showed their faces, so it's only natural that my brother-in-law doesn't know them." Leonard was arrogant, but he still restrained himself in front of Shen Jiantian. He maintained the respect of a deputy general manager and a brother-in-law, so he should be respectful.

David took a look at him, and under everyone's gaze, he patted the crystal coffin beside him, shook his head and said, "Seth."

"Master." Seth stepped forward.

"Bring some men to guard the exit of the mourning hall, and then arrange for the medical examiners of Linton City to come over. Today, I want to see how my brothers who have been fighting with me for half of their lives could be drowned by the river in front of their own house!"
