After Divorce, I Became A Queen novel Chapter 175

Chapter 175 The Funeral

Albie blocked Sion in his way.

"Sion Carroll, who are you putting on this show for? You haven't been nice to her when she's alive. Why now? You wanna leave her no peace now that she's dead?"

Albie wouldn't have held this funeral if there was a tiny little hope left. But it had been so many days, and they had searched the river over and over again. There must be something if she was indeed alive.

Today was the seventh day since her death, so they had to hold a funeral for her.

Sion said more firmly with pain in his eyes, "She's not dead. I'm gonna find her." So he had to make them cancel this funeral.

Sion was suddenly pushed by Elle, who rushed out from inside with tear stains on her face when he just started walking away.

"How dare you come?" Elle growled. She was so furious that she saw him as her worst enemy.

"I was so stupid to think you were the one for Aurora. And I even talked her into dating you! ... If you weren't mean to her, how would she…"

The more she said, the worse she felt. It was hard for her to admit that Aurora was already dead.

"It was all your fault! You made her so miserable! And you didn't even make her happy for once in your entire marriage!"

Aurora was in the prime of her life. And she had gone away even without her body being found.

Hearing what Elle said, Sion felt choked and couldn't say anything. She was telling the truth. He did not treat Aurora well. Otherwise, he wouldn't have found the truth about the earthquake so late.

"She's alive. And I will find her."

"You can keep lying to yourself, and I'm fine with that."

Elle felt a bit worried while seeing Sion like this, however, she got furious as long as she thought of Aurora.

"But today, you can't get in and ruin this funeral. Aurora's resting in peace, and I'm not gonna let you ruin that."

Then Elle pushed Sion away and shouted at him, "Go away! You are blocking the door."

Sion was pushed against the wall with a frown on his face. He couldn't say anything to retort in the face of Elle. Those words she had said in an accusatory way hurt him like swords.

Aurora had been planning on making this marriage work, but it was he who had ruined everything. Thinking of it, Sion slid to the ground against the wall, depressingly feeling heartbreaking-like pain.

He had hurt her so much that she wanted to leave him and even hired a lawyer to divorce him.

Aurora must have hated him so much, Sion thought.

"Sion."

A sudden female voice disrupted his thoughts. Following the voice, he looked at the woman with cold eyes.

"What are you doing here?" Sion asked with a frown.

If it weren't for Nevaeh who told him that she was the one saving his life from that earthquake, he would have not missed Aurora.

Nevaeh looked sad in a black dress with white chrysanthemums in her hands.

"Aurora's gone. As Professor Robertson's student and as her friend, I have to attend her funeral." Said Nevaeh.

Sion gave her a stern look without uttering a word.

"I... I'm sorry for your loss. Aurora must have been looking down at us in heaven. And she wouldn't want to see you so upset."
