Chapter 285 Uncovering My Wife’s Secrets

Inside the Xander residence, the atmosphere was gloomy. There was an ice casket in the funeral hall. In front of the ice casket, there was an altar lamp. A brazier was placed in front of the funeral hall, too.Lily and Yechiel were lighting candles. Lily sat on the ground while Yechiel knelt. Yechiel sighed as he lit the candle. Lily lit a candle, too. She was crying. Occasionally, she would say, "Nancy, may you rest in peace. I'll keep praying for you. I hope you'll visit me in my dreams and tell me who hurt you. I won't keep you waiting. No matter who it is, I'll make her pay with her life." From time to time, she would cry in silence. Beads of teardrops would fall onto the ground.

It was indeed uncomfortable to watch. The event host and his employees were giving a eulogy at a nearby table. They shared fond memories of Nancy. Some people wrote condolence letters. These ceremonial rituals were the oldest traditional rites of Chanaea. Nancy's friends, juniors, and the servants of the Xander family were wearing white mourning clothes. The elders were not wearing mourning clothes but had changed into black or plain white garbs. Dressed in black, Sybil looked at the ice casket and sighed. Seeing Lee coming over, she immediately helped him. "Lee, please don't be too upset."

She had heard that Nancy was the bone marrow donor for Lee's transplant procedure. She was worried that Lee would feel upset when he knew that Nancy had passed away. "Alright," Lee replied. He did not feel too upset about Nancy's death Firstly, he was not that close to Nancy. Secondly, in the few times they had interacted, he felt that Nancy was cunning. However, as her uncle, he should attend her funeral and pay his respects. Besides, he also wanted to know which bastard had accused Annalise of murdering Nancy. "Lee, you're here. Come light a candle for Nancy, too," Lily said with red eyes. Lee nodded and knelt.

trying to say. He was not too happy about it. If he had the same measure of affection for everyone, he would treat them equally. If he did not, how could he treat everyone equally? Nancy was his niece, whereas Annalise was his daughter. He cared for Annalise much more than he did Nancy. How was he supposed to treat them fairly? Although Annálise was not related to him by blood, she was Heather's daughter. Heather had already passed. He would protect Annalise even if

caused trouble first. That was the only reason why Annalise would have killed her by accident. Lily cried and said, "You will treat Nancy

don't care what your attitude is like with the Zeller family. But don't use your ridiculous and pretentious attitude to treat my family member," Lee said bluntly. He continued, "Annalise is my daughter. I know her very well. She has a gentle temper and a kind heart. She would never kill anyone." He was telling Lily not to frame others just because her daughter was dead. Hearing Lee's words, Yechiel was unhappy. He put on airs. "Lee, Annalise grew up in the countryside, after all. She has a wild personality. You didn't raise her. You've only just found out she was your daughter. How much do you know about her? As the saying goes, you can't judge a book by its cover. A wild person like

me the evidence. If you don't have any evidence, don't blame my harsh words." Lee's expression suddenly darkened. Lily immediately looked at Yechiel with dissatisfaction. She could not hide her disdain. It was as if her expression was saying, "Look at you. You've been the Xander Group's president for 20 years. But what's the use? You don't have any power at all. You're equally

back to his villa and reminded him, "Rest well, Lee. If Annalise comes over, I'll let you know." Now, Annalise was the Xander family's daughter. Now that Nancy was dead, Annalise should be visiting them soon. "Alright," Lee replied. He had already arranged for someone to inform him as soon as Annalise arrived. He was a Xander. How could he possibly allow others to make Annalise's life difficult? Lily lit the candles for a while before her

discoveries." "Keep going," Lily said coldly. The person on the other end of the phone answered, "Miss Nancy had kidnapped Old Mr. Parks. Afterward, Annalise rushed over to them." "Was Julian not at the scene?" Lily asked. She did not believe that Annalise could kill Nancy. Others might not know about Nancy's skills, but as her mother, how could
