They speculated that Sarah and Nina must have found out about Bennett's long-hidden shenanigans, which likely triggered their departure.
During the day's leading up to the funeral, Sarah indeed had not shown her face at all. It was only at this moment that she arrived with Nina. Of course, they were accompanied by a circle of bodyguards, given the prevalence of ruffians.
The Quirks had already been informed about the circumstances, so naturally, none of them would attend the funeral of such a person. They had thought that only Carlos would accompany his sister to the event.
Instead, another group of young people arrived. They simply stood at the door, merely observing without coming in to offer their condolences. This left the Eatons somewhat bewildered.
They probably didn't expect anyone would come to the funeral just to spectate.
Due to this peculiar situation, the curiosity of the other guests present was piqued. The originally solemn funeral unexpectedly turned into a spectacle of intrigue.
Wow, the mistress and all the illegitimate children are here. They're so brazen. I knew coming along was the right choice. There's quite a show to watch!
Aside from David and Selena who stayed at the Quirk estate with Callahan, everyone else had arrived.
The twins from Felix's family naturally took the initiative to tag along. They too were eager to enjoy the spectacle.
Meanwhile, Janice was coerced into coming by everyone else. She was still somewhat dazed, having never experienced such a confrontational event before. She had thought that Sarah would choose to let bygones be bygones. Yet, unexpectedly, Sarah had shown up that day in such a manner.
Inexplicably, there was a somewhat burning sensation within her.
At that time, the memorial hall had already
arted buzzing with activity.
For the first time, Sarah found herself face to face with the mistress.
Sloane had a pitiful look on her face. Instead of speaking to Sarah, she first approached with a child on each side and said to Nina, "Nina, hello. Let me introduce you to your younger brother and sister. It's their first time meeting you today. From now on, you only have each other. You must support-
Before Sloane could finish her sentence, Nina, who had already had a heart-to-heart talk with Sarah, interrupted coldly, "Ma'am, what are you talking about? I'm an only child."
Pfft! At first, I was worried that Nina wouldn't be able to handle seeing those people. Yet, unexpectedly, she had already become a carbon copy of her mother. Indeed, a man's betrayal catalyzes a woman's evolution. This is true even between a father and daughter. Poor little Nina, she's burdened with pressures that someone her age shouldn't have to deal with. I really wish I could scatter the ashes of that sc*mbag.
Several stifled laughter echoed throughout the room, turning Sloane's face pale with anger. Yet, she couldn't express her frustration and instead turned to Sarah with a troubled look. "Sarah, it's all my fault. But the children are innocent. They share the closest relationship in the world. You should explain it to Nina. Bennett always hoped that the children could support each other. After all, they share the same "

The resounding slap harshly sent Sloane sprawling onto the ground, causing a collective gasp among the crowd. The cries and shouts of the illegitimate children filled the air.
The biggest boy was the first to charge toward Sarah, but he was met with a fierce slap from Nina, who had been eager to get into the action.
When they wanted to make a scene again, the bodyguards stepped forward, intimidating them. Suddenly, no one dared to approach. All that could be heard were cries and curses.
"Hmph! As a mistress, weren't you prepared to face the consequences long ago? Why the tears now?" Sarah scoffed, staring coldly at Sloane. "Are you still stuck in your own little world? Do you fancy living in the past, serving as a concubine?"
No, no, no, at most, she's just a mistress, definitely not a concubine.
The Quirks felt like laughing, but they kept their composed demeanor, quietly enjoying the drama.
"Do you really have to make a scene here, Sarah? Don't you want my son to rest in peace?" Vera immediately responded with agitation.
"Why would I want him to rest in peace? Does he even deserve it?" Sarah retorted.
Terry swiftly turned to Nina and said, "Nina, don't let your mother's words cloud your judgment. They truly are your siblings. You must acknowledge them."
As Nina looked at her grandparents, her resentment intensified. She had learned from a corporate lawyer that children born within wedlock were legally obliged to support their younger siblings born outside of marriage.
