Winning Her Heart back (Emelie and William)

Chapter 639 Destroy Him

The crowd erupted in shock.

It was the third day since Henry's passing. According to Capebatt City's customs, his funeral, the cremation, and the burial were scheduled to take place on that day.

Friends and family had gathered to bid Henry farewell. There were at least twenty to thirty people gathered at the large funeral hall.

If anyone else had made such a claim, they would've been seen as spouting nonsense. However, Vanessa was different. As William's stepmother, her words carried a heavy weight. Countless skeptical eyes fell onto William. Yet he remained calm and composed, unfazed by the accusations.

"Mrs. Middleton, such accusations require proof!" Ashton warned with a firm tone.

William's second uncle, Gideon, stepped forward. "Vanessa, today is Henry's funeral. If you have something to say, discuss them with Will later. We should let Henry rest in peace, not give outsiders a reason to mock our family."
