Salute To The General

Chapter 1841



On that day itself, Corey's body was returned to the Lucas family.

When Rayne saw her son's body, she collapsed into a puddle of tears.

Remaining expressionless, Zion maintained a frosty gaze. Anyone could see that he was feeling both angry and devastated.

The captain of his National Guards, Jan Lucas, asked softly, "Sir, Ma'am, I offer my condolences. But, I need your instructions for the funeral."

Zion replied coldly, "Just keep it simple."

Jan acknowledged, "Yes, I understand. I'll be right on it."

The Lucas family themselves knew that Corey's death was likely connected to the Davier family.

Moreover, they were well aware of how Corey had offended them.

Since they were the ones that started it, the Lucas family tried not to show their outrage. Furthermore, as the election was looming, Zion remained one of the leading contenders. Therefore, the Lucas family intended to keep the funeral simple so as to not raise a furor. In fact, no one else other than the closest family members were informed of the death. Corey's funeral was held in a funeral home.

Many guests arrived to pay their respects despite not being officially notified.

Those that couldn't make it sent funeral wreaths to express their condolences.

Zion together with Rayne and other members of the family received the guests who had arrived to pay their respects.
