Chapter 727 A Stubborn Girl

Sylvia’s POV:

Warren wailed miserably. I had never seen him break down like this. Even when he had fallen off the cliff in the forbidden forest and was severely injured, he hadn’t shed a single tear.

He looked awful and had lost a lot of weight in just a few days.

Fortunately, Flora was with him, which would give him some comfort.

Owen and Edwin were also in the same state. Edwin seemed to suddenly have aged ten years, with grey hair sprouting all over his head. He stood behind Owen, not speaking a word. He just stared blankly out the window, as if his soul had already departed with Leonard.

Standing next to me, Rufus gently held me in his arms, his face lined with worry. Perhaps he was afraid that I would lose control of my emotions as well.

I shook my head subtly, indicating that I was fine. My throat felt sore and my eyes were dry. I knew I had no more tears left to shed. In the second half of the service, the priest asked everyone to bring flowers to Leonard’s coffin in turn to pay our respects.

In the middle of this process, Owen approached Rufus, wanting to discuss something about the burial. Rufus said a few words to me and left.

I held my flowers and continued to wait in line for my turn.

Soon, it came. Leonard’s b*ody was surrounded by flowers. I gently placed the ones I was holding on his chest. As I did this, I noticed that the walking cane I had put beside his hand last night was missing.

I was stunned. I instinctively knew that Alina had taken it away. My speculation turned out to be correct.

As I was about to walk off the stage, Alina came closer to me and whispered, “Are you looking for the walking cane? Ha-ha, I threw it away. I won’t let that thing be buried with my father’s b*ody, because you don’t deserve it.”

I was in no mood to argue with her, so I just left.

People were coming and going outside the mourning hall, and the sun was beating down harshly. Alina was still following me, not done with her sarcastic comments. “Why are you leaving in such a hurry? Are you going to tattle to Rufus again? That’s all you can do. You can only depend on your mate.”

Hearing this barb, I froze in my tracks and whirled around.

My abrupt action seemed to startle Alina and she took two steps back. “Why… why did you stop walking? Go and complain to Rufus. I’d like to see what you are capable of.”

I pressed my lips into a thin line and sneered at her. “What? Are you jealous that I have a mate to rely on? You also have that option. Oh, no, I almost forgot, your mate is dead.”

Alina was so enraged that her lips twitched. She hadn’t 

expected me to give her such a cutting retort. She roared in disbelief, “Sylvia, do you know what you’re saying? Don’t bully me just because you have Rufus on your side!” I shot her a cold glare. Icy disdain dripped from my voice as I said, “I used to want to tolerate you, but I don’t have the patience anymore. So, watch yourself, Alina. Don’t mess with me again, because I won’t show you mercy anymore.”

“Great, even I’d like to see what you’ll do to me. Now that my father has passed away, you don’t want to pretend anymore. You all are trying to intimidate me, aren’t you?” Her eyes widened in anger, as if she was not going to drop this matter easily.

I gave her a pitiful look. I genuinely felt that all the noble etiquette she had learned over the past decade had been a waste.

She was so obstinate that she had to pick a fight with people all over the world. If she continued in this manner, sooner or later she would suffer because of her own actions.

I smiled and said, “When Leonard was alive, he’d told me that if he d*ied one day, he wanted me to take care of you. He said that you were his biggest cause of worry. If you were to encounter any difficulties one day, I should help you for his sake…”

“Shut up!”

Alina interrupted me before I could finish speaking. Her eyes were bloodshot and her emotions made her bristle like a cornered hedgehog. Content © copyrighted by NôvelDrama.Org.

“Don’t be so self-righteous, Sylvia! Are you trying to be my elder sister now? I’m telling you right now; I will never admit that you are my sister! I won’t do it for the rest of my life. Just give up!”
