Substitute Marriage: Reborn As The Top Big-Shot Chapter 1496

Chapter 1496: 372: Directly dumbfounded! _4 Chapter 1496: 372: Directly dumbfounded! _4 Everyone wished for her death.

But she had absolutely nothing to do with this.

She, too, was a victim.

Besides, now it's not just Phoebe Perryne getting implicated by Mrs. Perryne, even the Augus Group under the control of Norma Augus is being affected.

Currently, all the major shareholders of the Perryne Group are discussing withdrawal, and several senior executives have already tendered their resignations.

Phoebe Perryne was just a woman who didn't pay much attention when the Perryne Group was smooth-sailing.

But when problems appeared, they came crashing down like a mountain.

She was incapable of shoulder the responsibility.

Left with no choice.

Phoebe Perryne had to reluctantly agree to the shareholders' suggestion and sell the Perryne Group at a low price.

Even the Perryne Family Mansion was mortgaged by Phoebe Perryne.

Norma Augus did have some business acumen, but she could not afford to be distracted.

After all, the Augus Group was also tottering in the storm.

The current Norma Augus, can only try her best to preserve Augus Group.

The more Phoebe Perryne thought about it, the more desperate she became. She looked at the portrait of Ethel Guarino, her eyes showing indescribable emotions.

And that bitch Mary Perryne.

All of this happened so many years ago!

Why can't she just let go?

Is there any meaning to this?

No matter what happened in the past, Ethel Guarino is now dead, doesn't Mary Perryne understand respecting the deceased?

Phoebe Perryne took a deep breath and walked up to the housekeeper. “Has Master Wang set a good time for the burial?”

This auspicious time of course refers to the best time for the funeral.

The housekeeper nodded, “Master Wang says the best time is at ten o'clock tomorrow morning.”

“Okay.”

In the blink of an eye, it was the next morning.

The hearse sped along.

Phoebe Perryne, holding the urn, sat in the front seat with Norma Augus.

Just as before, there were hardly any people coming to Mrs. Perryne's funeral today.

Only a few members of Phoebe Perryne's maternal family came.

With the uproar on the internet, her maternal family didn't want to attend Mrs. Perryne's funeral and be caught in this controversy.

But out of respect for Phoebe Perryne, they gritted their teeth and showed up.

People were diverse in thought, praying that public opinion wouldn't affect them.

Soon, the hearse stopped at the entrance of the Perryne Family Cemetery.

The Perryne family had their own ancestral tomb.

This was a piece of land with good feng shui that Dick Perryne bought with a large sum of money after he became wealthy. He invited a master to conduct a grand ritual and moved all the Perryne family tombs here.

According to the customs in Capital City, a ritual must be performed at the cemetery led by the master, and then the son or daughter of the deceased holding the urn was to directly bury the ashes.

Just as Phoebe Perryne got out of the car with the urn, the housekeeper hurried over.

“Miss Perryne, Miss Augus. It's… it's not good!”

Norma Augus slightly furrowed her eyebrow, “What's the matter?”

Looking up at Norma Augus, the housekeeper said, “Miss Mary Perryne is guarding the cemetery entrance and she doesn't want to let Mrs. Perryne into… into the Perryne Ancestral Tomb.”

After he finished, the housekeeper lowered his head guiltily.

Even he didn't expect Mary Perryne to pull such a stunt.

Upon hearing this, Phoebe Perryne's face turned furious. “On what grounds does she refuse to let my mom into the Perryne Ancestral Tomb? My mom and dad were legally married!”

Mary Perryne is going for the kill!

The housekeeper lowered his head and didn't dare say a word.

Norma Augus lightly furrowed her brows, thinking Mary Perryne was being overly domineering. Mary, as a daughter who had married out of the family, had no right to meddle in these affairs!

The head of the Perryne family is Phoebe Perryne, not Mary Perryne!

Moreover.

Mrs. Perryne and Phoebe Perryne, as mother and daughter, why make a scene to this extent?

Phoebe Perryne held the urn, turned her head towards Norma Augus, “Let's leave Norma! I can't wait to see what tricks Mary Perryne has up her sleeve today!”

Norma Augus follow Phoebe Perryne's steps.

Soon.

They reached the cemetery gate.

There Mary Perryne stood with two burly men behind her.

Phoebe Perryne, holding the urn, looked up at Mary Perryne and said, “Sister, I would welcome you if you are here to attend the funeral. But if you are here to stir up trouble, don't blame me for not considering our sisterly bond! ”
“My mother passed away thirty-five years ago, where does the funeral attendance come from?” Mary Perryne looked at Phoebe Perryne and continued, “According to the Perryne family's ancestral instructions, those with improper conduct don't deserve to be buried in the ancestral tomb! A ruthless and fickle woman like Ethel Guarino has no qualification to be buried in the ancestral tomb! Phoebe Perryne, if you still have some shame, take your shameless mother away quickly and stop making a fool of yourself!”

Mary Perryne was filled with resentment for Ethel Guarino.

Even though Ethel Guarino was dead, the resentment couldn't be flushed away.

Upon hearing this, Phoebe Perryne trembled with fury.

Damn it!

Mary Perryne is a damn!

How did she dare to say these words.

Now her mother's body is cold, and she is insulted by Mary Perryne. How can Phoebe Perryne swallow this anger?

Phoebe Perryne looked up at Mary Perryne, “Mary Perryne! Don't be too smug! This is not the Thompson Clan; this is the Perryne Ancestral Tomb. Now that my mother is gone, I am the head of the Perryne family! Plus, my mother and my father were legitimately married. What right do you have to prevent my mother from entering the ancestral tomb?”

“The right I give her!” At this moment, an old man with white hair walked out from behind Mary Perryne.

The old man leaned on a cane.

Although his hair and beard were already white, his spirit was very good, and he looked sharp-eyed at Phoebe Perryne.

Phoebe Perryne was slightly surprised as she looked at the old man. “Old… Sir.”

This Sir is the only remaining uncle of Dick Perryne.

In the entire Perryne family, the words of Sir have quite the weight!

When Dick Perryne decided to move the ancestral tomb to Jiangsu, he also listened to the opinion of Sir.

Phoebe Perryne never thought that Mary Perryne would have invited Sir here.

While Phoebe Perryne had yet to react, another middle-aged man walked over from the side. “Phoebe Perryne, take your mother and leave! According to our Perryne family rules, she indeed does not qualify to be buried in the ancestral tomb.”

The man who was speaking was Ivan Perryne, Dick Perryne's cousin.

After Dick Perryne made his fortune, with Hermosa Brain's help, he also brought several of his younger brothers to the Capital City.

Recalling Hermosa Brain's help back then, Ivan Perryne decided to stand up.

Besides.

Currently, with such strong online public opinion, if Ethel Guarino is really buried in the ancestral tomb, it would inevitably affect the entire family.

“Uncle Ivan!” Phoebe Perryne looked up at Ivan Perryne, her face full of incredulous expressions.

She never expected things to turn out like this.

Ivan Perryne spoke seriously: “Phoebe Perryne, it's not that Uncle isn't helping you, but one needs to have a conscience. What your mother did was indeed dishonourable. If you insist on burying her in our Perryne ancestral tomb, I can't explain it to others, let alone to Hermosa Brain. You'd better leave.”

Here, Hermosa Brain is referred to as Hermosa Brain.

“What if I don't leave?” Phoebe Perryne looked at them, “Sir, Uncle Ivan, please do not forget, I am still the person in power in the Perryne family!”

The Perryne family is indeed on a downhill path.

But her power is still in place.

Ivan Perryne helplessly shook his head, looked at Phoebe Perryne who still looked overly self-important, and continued, “Do you know who's the one acquiring the Perryne Group? Do you know who your family mansion is mortgaged to? Phoebe Perryne, face the reality! You are no longer the all-powerful head of the Perryne family that you used to be!”
