Angeline walked out of the funeral parlor with the heavy-hearted Mrs. Yorks. Feeling both embarrassed and furious, she gritted her teeth and snarled. "I lived to this age for nothing. I can't believe I was fooled by Spencer's honeyed words and actually believed his nonsense... I must be blind..."

Feeling uneasy, Angeline said, "I think Jaybie was the one who ordered Uncle Spencer to do this."

Mrs. Yorks was startled. "Why would he do that?"

Angeline replied, "Someone from Fragrant Vessel Court died as soon as the Ares family's mistresses and children moved into Tourmaline Estate. Jay is an extremely meticulous person. He must have noticed the unusual cause behind the car accident. Therefore, he wants to send Sandra home to look for a clue."

After a pause, Angeline said with a firm and determined gaze, "Aunt Crystal, why don't you work with Jaybie to outwit the culprit with their own trick by pretending like you're running away from home in a fit of pique? If you can fool Sandra, I believe she'll unmask her true nature very quickly."

Mrs. Yorks had always had faith in Jay's noble character, hence she would gladly cooperate with Jay.

However, Mrs. Yorks felt guilty and ashamed when she recalled her lack of faith in Spencer and how she nearly misunderstood him.

In comparison, Angeline would give Jay her complete trust even without an explanation. She could analyze his behavior and words to find out what he was thinking about. The understanding that Angeline had for Jay was a tacit one.

"You can always read Jay's mind." Mrs. Yorks sighed.

Angeline said, "Aunt Crystal, I'll ask Grayson to send you to a safe place."

"Mm."

After Angeline summoned Grayson and said a few things to him in a low voice, Mrs. Yorks got into his car and left.

When Angeline returned to the funeral parlor, Spencer's legs had turned to jelly when he did not see Mrs. Yorks. He asked in a quivering tone, "Where's Aunt Crystal, Angeline?"

Angeline pretended to be mad and stood up for Mrs. Yorks, saying, "Aunt Crystal wants me to tell you that since you've so insatiably and so unfaithfully ruined your vows, she has no reason to stay by your side anymore."

Spencer nearly fell to the floor butt first when he heard what she said.

Sandra supported him and said, "Old Master Spencer."

At this moment, the funeral parlor workers walked over and said to them, "It's time for the cremation." Sandra burst into tears. "Oh Judy, why did you leave by yourself and leave me here all alone?"

Angeline's eyes turned pink. Tears welled up in her eyes, but she forced back the tears.

Angeline had always been a woman with a gentle disposition and a pure heart. Partings and reunions were especially difficult for her to go through. She would even be moved to tears out of sympathy when watching a TV series. Amid Sandra's ear-piercing and hysterical cries, her cheeks were streaming with tears.

When Jay noticed Angeline's sorrow, he went to her side and comforted her. "I'll bring you out, Angeline."

Angeline said, "I want to say goodbye."

"If that's the case, don't cry."

Angeline cried even harder.

Jay lifted her up and carried her away domineeringly.

"Put me down, Jaybie. What are you doing? We couldn't be friends when she was alive, but I should at least say goodbye now that she's dead. We were once acquainted, after all."

"I will not allow you to cry for her," Jay ordered in a domineering tone and put Angeline down.

"If you're not going to think for yourself, you should at least think for the child in your belly," Jay said.

Angeline watched as Cole, Grand Old Master Yorks, and the rest walked out... She knew that it was useless to continue debating because Judy had completed her final journey. "Forget it," Angeline said.

As everyone else was caught up in bidding farewell to Judy, Jay's mind had wandered elsewhere.
