Chapter 450
The Campbell family’s drama had been the talk of the town these past few days, but since today was Caitlyn’s funeral, everyone was keeping their opinions to themselves out of respect. After all, it was important to respect the dead and not cause any more trouble at their funeral.
But Steven clearly didn’tt give a damn about that drama.
As soon as he entered, he overheard Shawn scolding Celeste and couldn’t help but feel curious.
According to the information he found, Caitlyn was a strong and accomplished woman. Why would she have chosen someone like Shawn as her husband?
Annoyed, Shawn turned around to face Steven, a stranger to him, and frowned. “I don’t need you to butt in when I’m talking to my daughter!”
Just as Steven was about to speak up, Celeste interrupted, “Shawn, today is my mom’s funeral. If you’re here to mourn her, then behave yourself. If you’re here to cause trouble, please leave!”
Shawn replied, “How dare you talk to me like that? I’m your father!”
In a low voice, Celeste said, “Don’t insult that title. I don’t want to argue with you here today. But if you mess up my mom’s funeral, I’ll make your children’s lives a living hell. Try if you don’t believe it.” She paused, then whispered, “Riverton School, right?”
Fear suddenly gripped Shawn’s heart as he realized that Celeste knew about his son and even where the boy went to school.
Recalling how she dealt with Angel, Shawn began to regret his actions. Although he was still furious, he didn’t dare say another word.
After paying their respects to Caitlyn, Steven and Clair approached Celeste.
Celeste nodded, “Thank you for coming.”
Clair looked at the woman before her, thinking that she looked like a delicate beauty straight out of a painting. Her haggard appearance couldn’t hide her striking features.
Clair had studied fashion design and had seen her fair share of famous models and celebrities, but she had never seen anyone as stunning as
Celeste.
As she glanced around the funeral, Clair wondered why no one from the Reed family was present. Suddenly, she heard some commotion outside. The Reeds had arrived.
As soon as their car stopped, Mr. Robinson hurried out to open the door.
Sienna rushed out of the car and headed straight for the funeral home.
Skyler got out of the car and quickly catched up to Sienna, gently grabbing her arm and whispering, “Mom, please slow down.”
Sienna coldly shook off her hand and said, “You’re just showing up now? You didn’t even help Celeste with the arrangements!”
Embarrassed in front of so many people, Skyler quietly explained, “Celeste didn’t tell me beforehand. I just found out.”
“If you paid more attention to her and had someone check on her occasionally, you wouldn’t be finding out just now!” Sienna angrily replied. “When your parents passed away, how did your father and I handle it? You haven’t grown up at all after all these years! You just left all this responsibility on Celeste.”
