The reporters nodded at Betty's remark with looks of approval. “Not only was Ms. Betty born to

wealth, but she was also a kind and

understanding young woman.”

"As Nina's employer, I should attend her funeral,” Sophia sobbed in front of the cameras.

The reporters questioned, “What will be the post-funeral arrangements?”

“Nina might have died in an accident, but the Beckett Group had a role to play because we failed to

monitor the safety of our employees. We will offer compensation to her family. We cannot do

anything to have Nina back, but we cherish our memories with her. So, we will do our best to assist

her family. Hopefully, she will be at peace.”

The reporters sighed with a newfound admiration for Sophia.

Escorted by their bodyguards, Sophia and Betty entered the funeral home. The reporters followed

Alyssa, filled with resentment, hissed, “Anyone is welcome to Nina's funeral except for you two!”

Operating on her last brain cell again, Betty asked loudly, “Why can't we?”

“The audacity to ask that question! You have no right to attend her funeral.”

People around them gasped at Alyssa’s bold statement.

"Alyssa Taylor, this is bullying! You've crossed a line!” Betty looked enraged and habitually raised her

hand to slap Alyssa, only to be held back by Sophia in time.

Sophia reasoned, “Ms. Alyssa, we sincerely wish to pay our last respects to Nina. This is not the right
