Revenge is Best Served After Reborn (James) novel Chapter 1227

Outside the hall, a crowd had gathered to bid farewell to Lennon, with several people standing guard at the entrance.

At one point, a business owner without a white flower tried to enter, but the doormen blocked him, saying, "Today is the old man's funeral. Without a white flower, no one can enter."

"I'm not a member of the Costello family, so why should I wear a white flower?" the man shot back, clearly looking for trouble.

The Costello family had relied on Lennon for years, and many new elites hoped for his downfall, eager to seize the opportunity. They weren't there to pay their respects but to see if the Costello family was on the decline.

"Why argue? It's just a white flower. If you don't want to wear it, then leave," one of the doormen said firmly.

Just then, Bea, dressed in a black dress with a white flower pinned on it, stepped out to the funeral. She glanced at the people at the door and said, "I'm here to pay respects to an old friend. The Costello family never mentioned needing an invitation to attend the funeral."

Seeing it was Bea, the doormen hesitated.

"What? Does the Costello family not have someone in charge?" Bea frowned and continued, "I'm here to pay my respects, not to cause trouble. The younger generation really has no sense of propriety."

Hearing this, the doormen stepped aside and said, "Bea, please come in."

"I won't argue with you at Mr. Shaw's funeral. We can talk about the shares later. I've paid my respects to my old friend, so I'll be leaving," Bea said before leaving the hall.

Colby held Sophie's hand tighter. Outside, trouble was still brewing. Colby remained silent while Sophie, letting go of Colby's hand, walked slowly outside. A security guard approached her and said, "Ma'am, these people are clearly here to cause trouble..."

"If you know they're here to make trouble, why not take action?" Sophie's voice grew colder.

The security guard was taken aback. Their lady had always been the least fond of violence. What had changed this time?
