Mysterious Mrs. Pansy

“We’ll go over in the afternoon to take a look. If it’s feasible, we’ll finalize the venue for the memorial service directly. You need to follow up on it later in the evening.”

The assistant nodded, a smile appearing on his face. Being able to complete the task so quickly and satisfy Jane made it all worthwhile.

“I’ve already arranged all the equipment and other devices for the memorial service. I guarantee that as long as the service can proceed normally, everything will be set up promptly.”

Upon hearing this, Jane expressed her gratitude and stood up. “Let’s go, let’s first go and take a look at the situation with the cemetery.”

The sales manager didn’t expect this client to be so urgent.

Once they returned in the afternoon, his face displayed a lot more smiles as he meticulously introduced the situation to Jane.

Jane signed the contract, settled on the cemetery plot, and then returned to the company, leaving the rest of the arrangements to the assistant.

Jane called Harrison and updated him on the current situation, inquiring about the situation on his end as well.

The next day, a solemn memorial service for Mike was held in the dignified hall. The family members and friends in attendance all had sorrowful expressions on their faces.

They felt as though the sky had fallen and were unsure of what the future held for the family. While some were deeply saddened, others were hopeful for the future, believing that with Patrick and Jane, the family would thrive. Different people had varying perspectives, but each person’s thoughts revealed their innermost feelings.

Everyone had already chosen which side to stand on. Initially, Harrison strongly wanted Jane to deliver the eulogy. However, Jane believed it was not appropriate, as traditionally, a eulogy should be delivered by a person of stature or an elder in the family. Jane was simply a company owner, not a prominent figure, and with so many elders in the family, it wasn’t her place to do so.

She entrusted Harrison with the task of selecting someone.

Upon meeting Jane’s insistence, Harrison chose the eldest member of the family to deliver the eulogy. Once this process was completed, Jane took the stage.

“Mike’s presence and smile remain in our hearts. I hope that in his new home, Mike can continue to enjoy a peaceful life.”

“All our relatives have come with heavy hearts today to see Mike one last time. If anyone has any grief, they can speak to Mike.”

With these two sentences, Jane began the final stages of the memorial service, surrounded by the grief for Mike. After this was completed, Jane and the others proceeded to the cemetery.

When they saw the cemetery plot, they were shocked at how much money Mike had left behind in his household. They knew that even if they sold Mike’s house, they wouldn’t be able to afford such a plot.

Especially considering the top-notch clothing and preparations made for Mike, everyone understood the level of luxury the funeral was.

“It seems Jane’s perspective on Mike has truly changed, or else she wouldn’t have organized this funeral in this manner.”

“I’ve been saying it. After Mike was discharged, Jane and Mike’s relationship returned to its original state. There’s no need for you to gossip behind their backs.”

A few relatives whispered to each other, and when the funeral began, everyone fell silent and assumed solemn expressions, just like before. Jane and Harrison led the way.

After lowering the casket into the grave, every relative held a tool and sprinkled a handful of soil over the casket. This signified that they were personally burying Mike.

Once everything was completed, all the relatives gathered at the banquet hall, leaving only the final dinner to conclude the proceedings.

Jane breathed a sigh of relief. There were no disturbances during the funeral, and no relatives spoke out of turn. This was most satisfying for her.

“Now that we have bid farewell to Mike, our lives must go on. I hope that as relatives, we can continue to maintain close ties.”Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.

Harrison’s words encouraged the relatives to eat and drink. His message was apparent: with Mike gone, Patrick and Jane were now in charge. If the relatives wanted to reconnect, now was the chance since Jane had let go of all grievances.

Those who had a good relationship with Patrick and Jane in the past were particularly encouraged to do so.

A few relatives now had smiles on their faces. They were very pleased with Jane’s arrangements for Mike’s departure, feeling that he was sent off in a dignified manner.

“We must thank Jane for her contributions to this family. While conflicts within the family were normal in the past, we must now set everything aside.”

“Regardless of what you think, I will frequently chat with Jane and Patrick. If you want to join us, feel free to reach out.”

After saying these words, a few people looked at other relatives meeting Jane and nodding with smiles on their faces; they knew their words had Jane’s approval.

This proved that Jane had indeed let go of everything. The fact that she and Harrison now had a good relationship demonstrated this. Initially, there were many disputes between Jane and Harrison when Patrick handed over the company to him.

Now, even these minor flaws could be overlooked. Once all the relatives had left, Jane specifically sought out Harrison in the office the next day.

“Harrison, I want to transfer ten percent of the company’s shares directly into your name.”

Upon hearing this, Harrison immediately shook his head resolutely. He couldn’t accept it now.

“I have my own studio and the ability to sustain myself. So, let’s forget about the shares. Dividing shares too extensively can have adverse effects on the company’s future growth.”
