Chapter 799 There Must Be Something Behind This
Chapter 799 There Must Be Something behind This
Donald was very tactful in socializing.
He knew he'd better avoid more complications at this time. Therefore, he quickly sent Patrick away.
As Felix never begrudged money, Donald had the discretion to decide how much compensation Patrick
could have. As long as it could shut Patrick up so that he would leave Queeny alone, the money would
be well spent.
After Donald showed Patrick the door, with Queeny in his arms, Felix headed for the building where
Sarah was lying in.
This accident occurred too unexpectedly. After Sarah died, the police intended to take her body away.
But Felix knew how close she and Queeny was. He was also aware that she died to save Queeny.
Hence, he sent his men to stop the police right away.
The nature of this case was too obvious, so no further investigation was needed.
The police then learned that they were Sarah's family and they also knew Felix. Plus, they wouldn't run
away with the body anyway. Thus, the police didn't object and let them bring the body back to the
castle.
Felix then ordered his men to put the body in the lobby of the side building.
As he carried Queeny there, from afar, he saw the servants had set the lobby into a makeshift
mourning hall.
There was a huge coffin in the center of the hall. Sarah was quietly lying in it.
Queeny shuddered violently at this scene.
Felix put her down and said, "I knew you would want to see her, so I asked them to keep her here. But
this is not her home. After you're done, I'll let Patrick bring her back."
After a pause, he consoled in a low voice, "The deceased won't come back to life. Try not to be too
sad."
Queeny didn't speak.
She was biting her lips. Her eyes had been riveted to the huge coffin since the moment she came here.
Supported by Felix, she trudged forward.
The coffin was made of fine cypress and painted black. At the foot of the coffin lay many fresh flowers,
which Donald sent people to buy last night.
Step by step, Queeny edged toward the coffin.
Putting her hands on the fringe of the coffin, Queeny popped her head in and looked.
Just with one glance, tears gurgled out.
Sarah was quietly lying inside the coffin. Her delicate face was white as a sheet. She had changed into
a sharp white outfit, which made her look like a sacred angel.
If it weren't for the fact that she had no pulse, no breathing, and her face was unusually pale, she was
actually not much different from when she was alive.
She was still young, pretty, and vigorous.
Queeny was assaulted by a spasm of agony. It was like a knife had cut out a big hole in her heart.
Blood was gushing, while a cold wind blew in, chilling her whole body.
"Sarah..."
She trailed off. Tears poured out. Sorrow had prevented her from finishing the sentence.
Felix didn't go up to comfort her.
Instead, he just stood by her side in silence, watching her with grim eyes.
The servants in the mournful hall had been sent away. The two were the only living people in the
spacious room.
Just like this, Felix silently watched Queeny suffer, repent, and try over and over again to wake Sarah
up from her eternal sleep.
"Sarah, I'm here. Your sister is here. Open your eyes and look at me. Didn't you say you want to build
your own fashion brand and open your own fashion store? Didn't you say you would become the best
fashion designer around the globe?"
"Wake up and look at me. No matter what you want to be, I'll be one-hundred percent supportive. I'll
help you to make all your dreams come true."
"But please, just open your eyes and look at me."
Queeny had thought that she had used up her tears since a long time ago.
But today, she found that she didn't.
She was still hurting, grieving. Like before, she still couldn't and wouldn't accept the loss of her beloved
ones.
Heaven knew how much she wished she could be the one who died in that accident.
She never wanted a girl who had a whole life ahead to die for her.
However, this was not something she could decide.
After all, the dead couldn't come back to life.
Queeny lowered her head, let her tears stream liberally. Her hand holding Sarah's cold and stiff hand
was trembling slightly.
After a long while, her voice was broken, and no more tears were coming out.
Then, Queenly gently released Sarah's hand, then combed Sarah's hair and straightened her collar.
After that, she forced a wry smile.
In a soft voice, she said, "Just sleep. I know you're tired. You don't have to wake up if you want to
sleep. I won't let go of any of those who have hurt you. They will die like a beggar."
As she said the last sentence, her tone carried a cruel edge.
Felix was taken aback.
The next second, he saw Queeny wipe her tears off and turn around.
Her face still bore signs of tears. But Felix saw clearly that the helplessness and desolation in her eyes
gradually faded.
What replaced them was savageness and aloofness stemmed from hatred.
"You said you'd brought those men back?"
Felix looked at her with a glacial face and asked, "What do you want?"
"Take me to see them."
"No."
He rejected without hesitation.
Queeny laughed coldly.
She stalked up to him, raised her chin, and stared at him. In a defiant, dignified voice, she said, "They
killed my sister. I'm gonna avenge her."
Felix's eyes darkened. He saw her intractable expression and the hatred in her eyes.
Still, he shook his head.
"Now is not the time."
He paused for a moment before continuing, "She died to keep you alive. Those people's target is you.
But since you were sent to jail, you no longer have anything to do with the Rosefinch Club and even the
entire underground circle. Aren't you curious about why they want you so badly?
Queeny quivered when she heard this.
Felix clapped his hands.
Ford, who was waiting in the doorway, entered the room with sheets of paper. He bowed his head and
delivered the papers to Felix with both hands.
Felix took the papers and then handed them to Queeny.
"Read these."
Queeny held the papers and took a glance. The next second, her countenance altered.
Felix explained, "This is the report on the interrogation we gave them last night and the investigationnovelbin
Ford carried out. Based on this report, the person driving the car to hit you was not in league with the
men who abducted you afterward.
"That's to say, so far, two forces have been targeting you. I already found out who the abductors are.
They're members of the Zircon Association.
"But I haven't figured out why they took you. Those men are just underlings. They don't know anything
about what their boss is planning."
"As for the man who hit you with the car, when he fell into the river after the car raced out of the bridge,
he already died because he was poisoned."
