Charming Lady Hard to Chase After Being Dumped novel Chapter 799

New York City, USA.

Iris stood in front of Justin's grave and stared at the tombstone in shock.

The Hunts were actually supposed to be buried in the family cemetery in California after their deaths. By right, his body should have been returned there, after which all of his assets would be split among the inheritors.

However, Nora had refused to send the body there.

Instead, she wanted him to stay in New York with her until she died, whereupon the family could then move her and Justin's graves to California together.

With those words of hers, Mrs. Hunt had immediately made up her mind to have Justin buried in the cemetery in the outskirts of New York.

After all, people would be lonely without company after death.

Justin and Nora weren't legally married yet, so she was not considered his wife at all. Should Nora meet another man suitable for marriage in the future and remarry, she would not be able to be buried in their family cemetery anymore.

Now that Nora had said that, how could Mrs. Hunt possibly still make life difficult for her?

If she could keep Nora in the family and have her protect Pete's inheritance for him—such that the Smiths and the Hunts would still have a connection to each other—even if she wanted Mrs. Hunt to wait upon her every day, Mrs. Hunt would be willing to do so.

Therefore, it was a very easy decision for her to have Justin buried in New York.

It was just that when Iris looked at the tombstone in front of her and at Justin's photo on it... It was an ID photo of him. In the photo, his expression was stern and serious and he didn't smile. His eyes were cold and there was a beauty mark at the corner of his eye.

Iris still felt that all of this wasn't real.

She shook slightly as she stood there...

After standing there for some time until Iris's legs had turned weak, Philip took a step forward and held her hand. "You have already seen him. Now, let's go!"

However, Iris remained where she was and said, "I want to go home! Nora and the others need me!"

Philip's expression darkened at once. "Iris, you should already count your blessings that I allowed you to come back! Don't push your luck!"

But Iris shook her head and said, "Justin is gone but he left behind three children and Nora. I have to go see them and help them get through this difficult time! I need to be with my family!"
