The happiest person for the past two days should be no other than Oliver.
After all, Robert's will didn’t change.
"It's time for her to learn a lesson.’ Nataly sighed and frowned, "But taking the matter on it's merits,
Oliver acted like a bastard."
As Anika’s good friend, she naturally did not like Lucy.
She had even insulted her.
However, whether it was Lucy who had dragged Kayden into the scandal, or Gavyn who had used this
opportunity to let Kayden escape, everyone knew that Oliver had something to do with it.
Lucy deserved it now, but people like Oliver made Nataly felt even more disgusted.
Alena looked at the men on the other side of the crowd and suddenly said, "Mr.Hill has done a good job
this time.The rest of the Cooper family was unable to visit."
Whether it was a wake or a funeral, both Oliver and the Cooper family were stopped outside the
cemetery by Zac.
After all, Zac was the only grandson-in-law of the old man.
His image would undoubtedly be harmed if he made such a decision.
Doing all of this, Anika was deeply moved.
She didn't want to see the Coopers at her grandfather's burial, either.
This was done by Zac, who assisted her in handling all of the talk.
"It's time to thank him,’ Anika smiled as she thought about it.
However, he always said that he didn't want to thank her.
Nataly turned to face Anika when she heard her remarks.
"Nika, what do you think now?" she asked.
Her words seemed to have a deeper meaning.
She could tell by Anika's surprised expression that she was too preoccupied with the funeral
preparations and didn't have time to think about anything else.
She shook her head and looked at Alena.
"Alright, let's go first"
"I'll send you guys out,’ Anika said.
"No need, you still have some work to do"
Nataly suddenly stopped her footsteps, looked at Zac not far away, and then turned around to leave
with Alena.
She was well aware that Anika had always made quick decisions.
There were still few things she had to figure out on her own.
As she watched Nataly and Alena leave, Anika's thoughts were immersed in Nataly's abrupt comments
that it took her a while to regain her senses.
Suddenly, her vision was blocked by a man's figure the moment she raised her head.
"Anika- Kayden, whom she hadn't seen for a long time, was in front of her.
His face fell as he looked at Anika's calm eyes.
"I know you don't want to see me, but you can contact Connor if you need assistance with
anything.Don't...carry it on your own all the time."
His eyes were warm, and his voice faded.
It had been a long time since he had seen Anika.
Kayden didn't want to make Anika feel disgusted by him, so he didn't go to the company to block her,
the reason why he didn’t have the chance to meet her.
He was worried about Anika after hearing of Grandpa Meyer's death.
He wanted to find her, but he was afraid of causing her trouble.
After everything that had happened, he knew he wasn't the right person she wanted to be on her side.
He could only meet her by attending the funeral.
Kayden noticed that Anika was a little tired as he looked at her from afar.
He wanted to comfort her and help her overcome her problems, but he was afraid she would
immediately reject him.
"Anika, please don't reject me right away.You've helped me in the past, so allow me to help you this
time.’’ He quickly said, afraid that Anika would shoo him right away.
Hearing Kayden's words, Anika breathed a sigh of relief and looked at him, "Anyway, thank you for
coming.’
Kayden was stunned for a moment.
"I already considered Grandpa Robert as my own grandfather." he smiled as he looked at her.
Anika chose the best time to treat him.
Seeing that Kayden did not intend to leave, Anika frowned and gazed at him.
Then she subconsciously glanced at the man surrounded by guests not far away.
Coincidentally, she met Zac's gaze, and her heart felt strangely empty.
Through his gaze, she seemed to hear his own voice in her ear...
"Anika, control yourself"
Anika lowered her head with her eyes flitting.
Kayden had said something behind her, but she couldn't hear it clearly.
She only nodded irritably.
Kayden thought that she had listened to everything he had said and felt a little more gratified.
But he didn't want to annoy her by talking too much, so he paused briefly and reluctantly turned around
to leave.
Tony, on the other hand, retorted angrily, "Damn bro, Kayden really has no shame! He still has the face
to talk with Anika like that?"
If Zac didn't stop him, Tony would already have rushed forward and pulled that obnoxious fellow,
Kayden, away from Anika! Zac's eyebrows furrowed slightly.
His eyes were cold as he said in a deep voice, "He is also a guest on this occasion.Pay attention.’’
He paused for a moment and then said, "Wait until he's gone.’
After all, it was still Robert's funeral, so Anika definitely didn't want to leave any gossip for others to talk
about, so she couldn't ignore his face.
That was what he said, but his gaze remained fixed on the two people not far away.
Tony carefully assessed the cold aura emanating from the man’s body.
He didn't dare to say anything and turned to look at Leo who was playing with his phone with a calm
expression.
Zac's expression only relaxed when Kayden left, which made Tony felt relieved as well.
Anika heaved a sigh of relief after Kayden left. When she looked at Zac again, he had already walked
towards her with Tony and the others.
As high school batchmates, Tony, Leo and Anika already knew each other, but they weren't very
familiar with each other.
"Hello, Tony." Anika smiled and greeted Tony.
She then looked at Leo and nodded, "Atty.March”
Tony was flattered, "Hello Anika."
He laughed.Leo, on the other hand, was very straightforward.
He leisurely took out a business card and handed it to Anika.
"Miss Meyer, if you need any legal service related to an estate dispute in the future, you can contact
me.’’ His tone was too serious which made the atmosphere a little awkward.
Zac glanced at her and nodded, "His professional ability is not bad.You can consider it"
"Yes, yes, Anika, and you don't have to be polite to him” Tony also agreed.
Anika hesitated for a moment and finally took Leo's business card.
"Thank you.If I really need it, I'll call you Atty.March.’ She had heard of Leo's reputation as a litigant and
knew that it was very difficult for her to invite him, so she did not reject his offer.
Tony and Leo only expressed their condolences and greeted Anika.
After a brief chat, Tony said goodbye.
"Anika, I'll go first.If you're free in the future, come to the club with Zac."
The clubhouse that Tony was referring to was the JH, which was funded by him, Blake, and the others.
This meant that Tony could be considered as one of JH's owner.
After saying this, they turned around to leave.
Tony's attitude toward her was a little too enthusiastic right now and genuine as well.
‘Didn't Zac tell Tony that what they had were just a fake marriage?’ Anika thought.
Zac noticed that Anika had a puzzled look on her face, so he coughed softly and said casually, "Tony is
really blunt.I'll tell him that it's inappropriate."
"Oh."
Hearing the man’s explanation, Anika seemed to have realized something and nodded.
Then, she heard the conversation between Tony and Leo.
"Bro, most drivers nowadays complain that the roads are difficult to find.Can I come with you?"
"I don't have time.I'll think of a way myself.”
"F*ck! Are you going to pick up that woman you've been seeing? Leo, you've seen each other for so
many times.Maybe she's just a field-playing juggler who only regards you as a backburner guy.Don't
lose your cool, bro!"
Anika was speechless.
‘‘Looked like he really couldn't control his words”
