Bearing His Child, Burying My Heart novel Chapter 264

Just then, Melissa who was walking over heard it and she immediately gained speed, "Mr. Maxwell, what did you say? Why not cremate him?"

"This is Moira's intention." Sage shot a cold gaze at Melissa.

Melissa normally feared Sage, but now that she was facing the death of her husband, she had the rights to speak out as to how she should handle the aftermath of her husband's death.

She snorted, "As Elias's wife, I have the right to speak on the matter. I recommend that my husband be cremated immediately."

Melissa ordered loudly.

No matter how sad Moira was, she had to endure it now. She walked in front of Melissa and chided her in anger, "Melissa, what exactly happened to incite my father to have a heart attack! Can you tell me now?"

"I was not by his side, how would I know?" Melissa turned and glared at her.

"Alright, as my father's daughter, I need to check my father's health." Moira said unyieldingly.

Melissa's expression changed. Although she could let Moira inspect Elias's body, because she didn't drug him anyway.

However, Rhett had actually performed the surgery on him. She could not guarantee that he hadn't done anything to Elias's body, so she definitely could not let Moira inspect it.

"Your father is dead. Do you still want to hurt his body? Your father had a heart attack, and he died of it as well. What else do you have to check?"

Molly also quickly spoke out, "That's right, my mother is right. Father is already dead. What more do you want to do?"

"We only need one day," Sage frowned and asked.

"Mr. Maxwell, this is our family's matter. Please do not speak, okay? You must know that you are not a Garcia." Melissa said to Sage rudely.

Sage snorted, "Who said I don't have right to say? I am already the son-in-law of the Garcias. I have the right to participate in this matter."

"What? You... Did you guys get certificates?" Molly's voice was filled with obvious jealousy.

"That's right, we had got our certificate abroad. I am now a Garcia as well." Sage answered Molly's question with absolute confidence.

Moira did not refute him. Instead, she looked at Melissa and said, "Give us one day. I only need one day."

Melissa sneered, "Even if an hour, I won't let you touch my husband's body again. As his wife, because his unfilial kids, I must give him the best possible dignity."

With that, Melissa turned to a middle-aged man and said, "Prepare for my husband and cremate him immediately."

"No way!" Moira shouted loudly to stop her.

"I have the final say. Don't tell me you want to steal your father's corpse and make him turn into a violent corpse?" Melissa immediately used Elias as a shield.

Hearing that, Moira became silent, the pain made her unable to breathe.

Sage held her tightly in his hands, staring at her with worry in his eyes and waiting for her decision.

"Moira, I can guarantee that I definitely didn't do anything to your father. He is my husband, and I love him. How could I hurt him? If you don't believe me, you can ask Koen. In the days after you left, Koen accompanied him all the time. Koen knows his condition the best. I've been taking care of the jewelry business, so I don't have many opportunities to see him." Melissa continued to speak, wanting to dispel the idea of Moira inspecting Elias's body.
