Randall took back Jordan’s photo and placed it in the frame. He then positioned the frame carefully on the altar.
Soon, a subordinate walked in with a black dress.
Randall took the dress and said to Victoria, “You should change into a black dress. You are his widow after all.”
“Oh, alright. Thank you, Uncle.”
Victoria accepted the dress and went to another room to change. She was originally worried that Randall wouldn’t know her size and that the dress wouldn’t be suitable. But the dress was tailor-made for her and fit perfectly.
In the black dress, Victoria exuded the aura of a noblewoman. Her hair was tied up in a bun, and her face filled with sorrow. She looked every part the elegant widow.
After that, Victoria joined Randall at the altar.
Soon, wave after wave of people entered.
This group of people all had imposing auras. It was obvious at a glance that they were not ordinary people.
Just from their gaze, one could tell that they were confident and extraordinary.
As outstanding as these people were, they were all Randall’s subordinates and called him “Chief”.
“We gather here today to pay our respects to Deity Jordan!”
“He was a great man.”
“He accomplished many spectacular feats.”
“But was also a loving family man.”
“Rest in peace.”
Victoria was still getting her bearings straight and Randall had already carried out Jordan’s funeral.
Although Victoria and Jordan were not officially married, she still fulfilled the role of a wife at her late husband’s funeral. With this funeral, Victoria was even more certain that Jordan was dead.
Victoria was extremely sad. She cried the entire night and even fainted.
The next morning, at 9 AM.
Victoria slowly opened her eyes. Her face was extremely haggard and her lips were dry.
Randall was sitting in front of her.
“You’re awake?”
Randall asked gently.
Victoria was puzzled to see Randall. “Uncle Randall… how… how did I get here?”
Randall said, “You were too sad last night and fainted from crying. I was the one who helped you to the bed. How are you now? Are you feeling better? Sigh, I know you love my nephew deeply, but you have to face reality soon.”
Victoria was sad again. “Without Jordan, I don’t know how to live the rest of my life. I don’t want to live anymore.”
Randall said, “You can’t think that way. Jordan wouldn’t want you to be like this. You should lead the rest of your life well and continue down the path that Jordan was meant to walk with you. Don’t worry, I will protect you.”
Fortunately, Randall was around. Otherwise, Victoria would definitely be so distressed that she would want to commit suicide.
Victoria paused for a moment and asked, “Uncle Randall, how did my husband get killed by Shaun? The last time he came to see me, he left with Lauren without even bidding me farewell. Where on earth did they go?
“I was unconscious for a long time. I don’t know what happened recently. I don’t even know why Shaun looks like Rong Bailun. Also, Uncle Randall, aren’t you dead? Weren’t you killed by Shaun? Why have you appeared again?”
Faced with Victoria’s questions, Randall smiled and said softly, “If you want me to answer all your questions, you have to drink this soup first. You haven’t eaten since noon yesterday. You cried the entire night and exhausted so much stamina and energy. If you don’t eat now, your body won’t be able to take it.”
Randall brought Victoria a bowl of chicken soup.
Victoria sat up, feeling a little embarrassed. “Thank you, Uncle.
“Ah, it’s so hot.”
Victoria took a sip and realized that the soup was still very hot.
Randall picked up a spoonful of soup and blew on it to cool it. “Let me help you.”
Victoria was embarrassed. “No, no. I can do it myself. I heard from the people yesterday that you’re their Chief. You seem to have a high status.”
Victoria was very curious about Randall’s current identity.
Randall was a member of the Steele family. Victoria had never heard Jordan mention that the Steele family had a chief.
Randall could tell that Victoria was curious about him. He smiled and said, “Don’t worry. After you finish this bowl of soup, I’ll answer all your questions. Come, open your mouth.”
Randall personally fed Victoria spoonful by spoonful. Although Victoria was embarrassed, her body was indeed weak now. Secondly, she felt a strong domineering aura from Randall.
She didn’t dare to oppose him!
She had never felt such dominance from anyone else.
When Randall didn’t smile, he gave off the feeling that he was the overlord of the world.
Victoria also noticed his subordinates’ respectful gazes yesterday. It left a deep impression on her.
After a while, Victoria finally finished the soup.
Putting down the bowl, Randall then stood up as well. He started to tell Victoria all the answers.
Randall said, “Let me tell you first what Shaun and Jordan have been doing recently. Shaun previously used Lauren to force Jordan to develop a mind-transplant procedure. Shaun then successfully switched minds with Rong Bailun. Unfortunately, he didn’t know that there was an even more senior Rong in the family, Rong Huangde, who is Rong Bailun’s father.
“Not only did Rong Huangde manage to control Shaun, but he also invented a machine to travel into the past. He has always wanted to know the origin of the Handley family’s spells, so he returned to the past with Jordan to explore this secret. They returned to 1978. I don’t know what happened there, but I know that Shaun planned to work with his father and uncle to kill Rong Huangde and Jordan. This way, after he returns safely, he will be the master of the world and no longer have any opponents.
“I’ve known Shaun for more than 20 years and I know that he has always been cautious, a hypocrite and very good at hiding himself. He usually doesn’t make a move easily. Once he does, he must have been 100% confident of it. So, when he told you that he killed Jordan, he must have succeeded.”
Victoria was very shocked to hear this. Jordan had died in the past?
She had originally wanted to find Jordan’s corpse.
Victoria sighed. “Fate is really unfair! Why did a terrible person like Shaun succeed while my husband failed? Poor Lauren. She just got pregnant with my husband’s child…”
Victoria was feeling very sad for Lauren and didn’t know how to inform the Howard family of this.
Victoria kept silent for a moment before asking, “Uncle Randall, why did you fake your death back then? What have you been doing all these years? How did you become the Chief?”
