Chapter 74 Matteo’s Funeral (Part 2)
“Mrs. Harmon, Matteo was diagnosed with sudden cardiac death. Did you anger him to death?”
“Mrs. Harmon, everyone heard what you said last night. Do you have anything to explain?”
***
Dahlia was interrogated in various ways until the police declared the cause of death as natural, ending the questioning. She thought the matter would end there, but she was unexpectedly involved in a case of infringement and theft of Galaxy Studio’s secrets.
It was not easy to be released on bail, and a few days later, the court hearing was scheduled. Unexpectedly, I was surrounded by journalists and media who bombarded me with various questions.
Dahlia was already furious and annoyed, and at this moment, she couldn’t hold it anymore and wanted to find a way to vent.
She disregarded her ladylike image and started swearing.
“You bunch of trash, how dare you speak to me like this! What does the old man’s death have to do with me? It’s his own fault! He could have died earlier or later but he had to die last night, it’s really unlucky!”
“Shut up!” Jordan exclaimed angrily, glaring at Dahlia. “What nonsense are you talking about!”

Dahlia was startled by the man’s shout, only then did she realize what she had said, it was simply outrageous.
As soon as this statement was made, it would be broadcasted throughout Woodmerrow, and even the entire country. The already suppressed Harmon family’s company would be even more precarious.
Jordan smiled at everyone and said, “I’m really sorry, my wife has been through a lot lately, so she said some wrong things. Please be kind and don’t broadcast it.”
“Is this going to be another Ariana’s route, staying at a mental hospital for a few days, claiming to have depression?”
“Yeah, they played the same trick several times, the Harmon family really knows how to have fun!”
“Yeah, it’s like they think everyone is a fool! Wasn’t it you guys who used the old man as a threat to make Zoey withdraw her lawsuit, so that Ariana could be released from the mental hospital?”
“The Harmon family’s eating manners were so unsightly, no wonder their own daughter wanted to cut ties with them!”
“Although they were twins, both the palm and the back of the hand are flesh, but the two daughters were treated differently. Zoey is not at all like your own!”
“Ariana, don’t you feel guilty for plagiarizing Zoey’s artwork?”
“Yeah, last night I was so confident and made a bet with someone, but ended up almost banging my forehead, it’s really embarrassing!”

“Mr. Maddox, after what happened last night, do you regret choosing Ariana instead of Zoey?” ”
“Mr. Maddox, were you aware of the incident with the sketch last night?”
***
Nelson’s face looked exceptionally ugly. Born Beauty was already facing various suppressions, and he had hoped to shine at the new product launch event. However, he never expected to be tricked by that foolish Ariana!
He not only kowtowed to Zoey in public, which caused him to lose face, but also put Born Beauty in crisis again.
Nelson glared fiercely at Ariana and raised his hand, delivering a loud slap.
Ariana looked at the man who hit her in surprise and said, “Can I be blamed for this? It was you who changed from knocking three times to knocking thirty times!”
Nelson was absolutely furious. This despicable woman actually shifted the blame onto him, turning the tables!
Wasn’t she the instigator of this matter?
Nelson grabbed Ariana’s hair directly and said, “If it weren’t for you claiming that those sketches were your own design, would I have made a bet with Zoey? You have no talent of your own, it’s all stolen from Zoey! You said you had some strengths, but I‘ must have been blind to choose you over a genuine talent. I want to break off our engagement!”

Ariana also became angry and embarrassed, “Who made you so vain! Didn’t you also choose me because you thought I had value to exploit! Now you say I have no ability, do you have any? What can you do? Wasn’t it also by relying on the Maddox family that you established Born Beauty? Now that you have been expelled from the Maddox family, you are nothing!”
She laughed and looked at everyone, “I’ll tell you another secret, Nelson is sexually impotent, he can only rely on
sadomasochism to satisfy his desires! He is now no different from a eunuch!”
Ariana spat at him, “If you don’t break off the engagement with me, I will break it off with you too! Don’t think I don’t know, you’ve been fooling around with other women! It serves you right to get sick! It must be because you’ve been playing around too much…”
Nelson grabbed Ariana’s neck with both hands, while at the same time, Jordan and Dahlia grabbed Nelson’s neck.
At one point, the scene was extremely chaotic.
The reporters did not step forward to intervene, instead they adjusted the angles of their phones or cameras to capture the best shots.
Finally, the remaining few individuals were taken to the police station by the police and all of them were detained.
After a few people came out, it was already noon of the next day.
Nelson glared fiercely at Ariana, “How do you want to die?”

Dahlia stood in front of Ariana and said, “No matter what, Ariana has been with you for so many years. A day as a couple, a hundred days of gratitude. You shouldn’t speak harshly to her!”
Nelson sneered, “If it weren’t for her singing voice and design talent, do you think she could have stayed by my side? I never expected her to be a talentless fraud, lacking in everything. Ha, I also don’t understand, we have the same mother, how can the intelligence of two sisters differ so much?”
Dahlia was so angry that she wanted the man in front of her to die. “What happened to Ariana? She is no worse than Zoey!”
Nelson laughed out loud, “Not worse than her? It’s like night and day! Ariana, from now on, you are no longer an employee of Born Beauty! I doubt Woodmerrow would even consider hiring a woman as useless and stupid as you!”
Ariana hummed and said, “I still had looks, it was easy for me to find a man, unlike you, who no longer had the right to be a man!”
Nelson’s lips curled into a mischievous smile as he said, “Ariana, I might as well tell you that I had a secret about you. You better pray that I’m in a good mood, otherwise I’ll expose it and you’ll be done for!”
Ariana’s eyes rolled, so what if Nelson only had his own photos and videos stored?
Her reputation was already bad, so she didn’t care anymore.
Being a streamer on that website, there was a lot of money just from tips.
She had a good figure and would definitely find a wealthy man.

“Suit yourself, scaring me won’t work! I simply don’t care!”
Nelson touched his back molars with his tongue and said, “Alright, let’s wait and see. There will come a time when you regret it!” After saying that, he turned around and left.
Jordan watched the man’s back and felt a vague sense of unease. “Nelson is a small–minded person, we should be cautious,” he said.
Dahlia coldly snorted, “What’s there to be afraid of? He’s just a waste!”
Ariana also thought so, “He was just at the end of his strength, unable to come up with anything new. His tough talk was just to scare me.”
Jordan furrowed his brow, with a constant sense of unease lingering in his mind.
Not long after, with the exposure of an incident, his worries were confirmed and it also pushed the Harmon family into irreparable ruin.
Just like rotten mud smashed onto the floor, it could never be lifted up again.
The Harmon family heard that Matteo’s funeral would be held the next day.
Although they didn’t want to go, they had to go under external pressure.
The next day.
The weather was gloomy, and there were occasional

thunderclaps around five in the morning. By six–thirty, drizzling rain started to fall.
The funeral home held funerals every day, and there were particularly many people today.
Many of Matteo’s friends came to his funeral.
Zoey and Russell stood on one side of the crystal coffin, bowing to the people who came to pay their respects.
At around seven o’clock, the Harmon family arrived.
Some respected elders angrily scolded three individuals.
“Why are you coming so late? You are even later than those who came to pay their respects! You are truly unfilial!”
“Well, can they be filial? Matteo was probably driven to death by them!”
“Zoey, that girl, chose not to have an autopsy performed in order to preserve Matteo’s last bit of dignity. Who knows what results might have been found if an autopsy had been conducted!”
The Harmon family was unfortunate! It turns out that they got involved with such a daughter–in–law, and Matteo’s death is definitely related to her!
“They still have the audacity to come? They must be hoping to beg Matteo for blessings from up above!”

Ariana gritted her teeth tightly, why haven’t these old immortals died yet?

She looked at Zoey, beautiful and enviable, and the man sitting in the wheelchair, so dignified and elegant.
Although not as humane as Nelson, at least he had the ability to make money and was the head of the Maddox family.
She was no less than Zoey, even more voluptuous and sexy than her.
No man could resist her body, she thought Russell was inhumane, but still had the flaws of men. There is no cat that doesn’t steal fish, she wanted to conquer Russell.
She walked over and sniffed, “Zoey, I have deeply reflected on these past few days. I know I was wrong. Will you forgive me?”
Zoey raised an eyebrow, somewhat surprised by her display of weakness.
Ariana started crying and then fell towards Russell.
