Swoosh!
Once they reached the hall, Darryl shuddered; he immediately tensed.
He noticed the entire hall was filled with wreaths and white damask silk. Sara Carter was in a mourning garment. Her eyes were swollen and red; she sobbed terribly.
Besides her, the other Carter family members were there, and Dax Sanders, Chester Wilson, Monica Vaughn, Yvonne Young, and the Six Fairies of the Fuyao Palace. All of them were in white, and they stood silently in mourning.
No one spoke in the entire hall; the atmosphere was extremely glum and depressing.
He saw a coffin on the northern side of the hall; there was a platform with an ancestral tablet on it. There was a name on the tablet—Zoran Carter.
Buzz!
Darryl's mind exploded when he saw the name on the ancestral tablet. His mind buzzed.
Gasp!
At that moment, everyone in the hall was stunned when they saw Darryl. Then they rushed toward him excitedly.
"Darryl, you're back?"
"Young Master, it's great that you are well, but Master has—"
"Darryl, Dad is dead! He's dead—"
They were shocked and delighted when they saw Darryl. However, their hearts were still broken when they thought about Zoran's death, especially Sara. She yelled as she ran into Darryl's arms and sobbed violently.
After Donoghue killed Zoran in the New World Prison, his body was buried on a barren hill behind the Royal City.
