Chapter 28: A happy family and a sad family

Tony Windis's funeral was scheduled for the third day after his death.

He is buried in the famous Rose Hill Cemetery in the northern suburbs of Chicago.

Although this guy didn't have many relatives, there were quite a few people who came to the funeral.

After all, he is a tennis star. Although he is only a second-rate player, he still has some good cards.

However, Qiao Xi didn't join in the fun. Others didn't know, but he still knew exactly how this guy died.

It's quite awkward to pretend to pay homage to someone you killed.

So he just sat in the car far away, acting as the driver, waiting for Margot.

It took more than two hours to send off all the guests who came to pay their respects, and then Margot got into the back seat of the car.

"How are you? Are you tired?" Josie looked at Margot through the rearview mirror and asked.

Today, Margot is wearing a conservative black elegant dress, a black veil hat, a delicate and elegant collar-style pearl necklace around her neck, and a piece of black silk. The whole person looks demure, elegant and temperamental.

Very.

Although according to the old saying of the Xia Kingdom, a woman should be pretty and filial, and wearing white is the most attractive.

But in fact, pure black is not bad, and it has a sense of mystery that makes people want to find out.

"Fortunately, everything is handled by the pastor and the funeral company anyway. I'm just supporting the scene. Why should I be tired?" Margot shook her head to show that she wasn't tired.

"By the way, what's going on with that guy?" Qiao Xi nodded, then looked at a young man in the distance who was looking this way and asked.

The other party also came to attend the funeral, but had been getting close to Margot since before the funeral.

That's why Josie asked this question.

And this isn't the first time Josie has met this guy.

The last time Joe Barbaro followed Margot, Josie had seen this guy in the jewelry company. He seemed to be related to the Uncle John that Margot mentioned, and he had been courting Margot that day.

.

"He? He is Uncle John's second son, David Lebil, a well-known playboy. He has been in charge of his family's business in New York. He just came back some time ago. I was unlucky last time.

I met Uncle John when I went to see him. He heard that I was preparing for a divorce, so he kept pestering me. I made it clear to him last time, but now he still refuses to give up." Follow Josie's gaze and look over.

, Margot frowned and replied, her words full of disgust.

This kind of dislike is not pretended, because in Margot's view, this David Lebil is actually the same kind of person as the dead Tony Windis.

Even though the other party is only in his early thirties, he has already been divorced twice, and the reason for the divorce is because after he lost the novelty of his wife, he started to live and drink outside and create all kinds of sexy news.

And this thing is even better than Tony Windis.

Tony Windis is a sports star after all, and he pays more attention to maintaining his own image in public.

But this David Lebil took advantage of the fact that he was a rich second generation, and he acted unscrupulously.

Therefore, with Tony Windis having learned from the past, it is naturally impossible for Margot to have any favorable impression of him.

"...Do you want me to teach him a lesson?" Hearing Margot's words, Josie couldn't help but frowned and said.

Good guy, Margot has only had this diamond VIP meal ticket for a few days, and now he's here to take advantage of her. How can he bear this?

How about letting this guy go down and keep Tony Windis company?

"Forget it, just stay away from him. After all, Uncle John is nice to me. It's too tense and it doesn't look good on my face." After hearing this, Margot immediately stopped Josie's dangerous thoughts.

After getting along with each other for this period of time, and after the incident with Tony Windis, Margot finally understood that the little man she picked up on the roadside seemed to be a gentle and harmless little puppy on the surface.

, but in fact he is a little wild wolf from Bavaria (the Bavarian Forest is located on the border of Germany and Austria) with a hint of ferocity in his heart.

Of course, Margot did not alienate Josie because of this, but fell in love with this bad little man even more.

This may be the so-called Bonnie and Clyde syndrome (bad boy control).

Because of this, if Josie really wants to "persuade" David, Margot is really afraid that David will end up like Tony Windis.

She didn't care whether Tony Windis lived or died, but David's father, John Lebil, was really kind to her, and she didn't want that kind old man to suffer the pain of losing his son because of her.

Although Josie was unhappy with the other party's attempt to pry him into a corner, since Margot had spoken, he couldn't say anything more. He immediately started the car and left the cemetery.

Out of sight out of mind.

As a time traveler, Josie had no sense of belonging to this era before.

But with the appearance of Margot, a woman who devoted herself to him, the situation has changed.

So it didn't matter what happened to other people, but he had to take care of Margot's emotions.

After leaving their destination, the two did not return to Margot's manor, but returned to their love nest in Evanston.

The manor was actually bought by Margot after her marriage to Tony Windis. After she and Tony Windis completely parted ways, she naturally had no nostalgia for the manor, and even felt a little

dislike.

So he simply moved to Evanston with several servants who had been with him for many years and lived with Josie.

Anyway, the house in Evanston is not small, it has eight rooms, which is fully habitable.

As for the fact that their mistress had just passed away her husband and was living with another young man, the servants did not show any abnormality.

Because these servants were originally left by Margot's father, and they were not the same people as Tony Windis at all.

After arriving home and saying hello to Tommy and his family who were having afternoon tea in the yard next door, Josie hugged Margot as soon as she entered the house.

"Wait a minute, I'm going to change clothes first!" Margot said angrily and slapped away the little man's mischievous hand.

"No need to change, I like what you are wearing." But it was no use. Josie grabbed Margot's arm with her backhand and whispered in her ear.

Feeling the hot breath in her ears, Margot quickly fell.

Seeing that the delicate body in his arms was no longer resisting, Qiao Xi picked her up in response to her exclamation and ran upstairs.

But just when Margot and Josie were celebrating that they could be together without any worries in the future.

In a tavern at the other end of the city, another group of people were not in such a good mood.

These people were originally planning to rob the jewelry store, but the plan was disrupted by Tony Windis who joined them. Inexplicably, they had an extra life on their hands.

No one would be happy if this matter was left to them.
