Chapter 424 Grieving for His Death

Everyone was ready to depart, and only Isolde’s tent remained unstruck. As soon as she got up, someone came to pack it up.

The neighbors had also gathered to help, and slowly, members of the Langley family began to arrive to see Geoffrey off.

The Langley family was a vast clan, with many impoverished members. Most of them ignored family matters because they didn’t have a say. On Geoffrey’s matter, some harbored a sense of injustice but had kept silent–until now. Those who once respected Geoffrey had come out of the woodwork, walking in silence behind the procession.

“Wait, wait!”

A weak, urgent voice came from behind. Isolde turned around and saw an elderly man, dressed in tattered clothes, being supported by two strong men. He was frail and looked sickly, wearing a worn–out coat, his face pale and yellowed–clearly a long–suffering patient.

Isolde didn’t recognize him, but Clark immediately did, rushing forward to help him. “Micah, what are you doing here?”

Micah looked stricken with sorrow, stomping his foot. “Those unworthy descendants didn’t even tell me! If it weren’t for the officials going door to door asking, I wouldn’t have known Geoffrey is gone! How cruel! He was so young, the pillar of Eryndral Empire! Why did Heaven take him from us?”

Micah broke down into sobs, wailing uncontrollably.

A neighbor whispered to Isolde, explaining that Micah was an old elder of the Langley family, but because his family had no notable members, he was often disregarded. He had been bedridden for years, unaware of much that had been going on.

Seeing his grief, Isolde walked forward and bowed respectfully. “Greetings, Micah.”

“Isolde?” Micah slowly approached, trying to focus on her. “Ah, you… You look exactly like your mother,” he said, his voice cracking again, tears flowing. “Your mother… she had such a tragic life…”

Two strong men around him hurried to console him, “Grandfather, please don’t be too upset, take care of yourself.”
