Chapter 726 This Is Our Family Affair
Beau was dead.
But they didn't find Beau's body.
Only some limbs and broken bones were washed into a remote desert by the waterfall.
Apart from this, that desert was dyed red by blood. There were no footprints left behind, only some footprints left behind by wild beasts, as well as some traces of drag.
The members of the search and rescue team followed the traces and finally found the lairs of two wild boar.
The members of the search and rescue team finally managed to lure the ferocious wild boar away, but they found fragments of Beau's clothes in the nest. There were even more parts of his body, and it was almost impossible to tell who he was.
Many members of the search and rescue team vomited on the spot.
Noah didn't give up. He looked through it again and again at the scene, and finally found a watch.
When Noah saw clearly that the watch was given to Beau by Braint, he finally couldn't help but burst into tears.
This watch was given to Beau by Braint. Mr. Valentine had never left it behind and even joked with Noah, saying that unless he died, he would never lose the watch.
Noah had been optimistic before. The moment he saw the watch, he collapsed.
He didn't even know how to talk to Eliza about how Beau ended up without a corpse!
Noah took a knife and went to find the two wild boar. He killed them as if he was venting his anger. In the end, he only had time to find the pieces of clothes that had not been digested.
Noah was covered in blood and was finally dragged away by Eden.
Owen was called over. He took the rest of the corpse and went back to do an examination. The final test result was sent to Eliza.
Eliza looked at the report, and her tears rolled down her cheeks.
She looked at it while shaking her head. "No, you're lying to me. Beau... he will be fine!"
Owen's eyes were red and swollen, and they were bloodshot. He also looked sorrowful.
But when he looked at Eliza, who was about to faint from crying, he couldn't help but open his mouth to comfort her.
"I hope it's not Beau, but... I've checked it. The DNA is basically the same. I'm sure it's Beau."
As soon as he finished speaking, there was a burst of sobbing in the room.
Eliza was on the verge of collapse. She struggled to stand up and asked, "Where is he?"
Owen's eyes showed that he couldn't bear it. "There are only some pieces left, and they can't be pieced together at all. After Chester signed them, they have been sent to be cremated."
Eliza suddenly raised her head. "What right does he have to sign it?"
Owen said, "When Beau went back to the Benton family, he went back to his household register. Now Mr. Hughes is Beau's brother, the brother of legal recognition."
Therefore, as a family member, Chester had the right to sign it.
"What about the ashes?"
"It was taken away by Mr. Hughes."
Eliza struggled to get out of bed, and Graciana immediately reached out to hold her, not allowing her to step on the debris and hurt herself.
"I want to bring Beau home! No matter if he's dead or alive, he has to be by my side!"
Owen looked at Sawyer, urging him with his eyes, so that he could think of a way.
Eliza was now a pregnant woman. If something really happened, it would be too late for everyone to regret it.
Sawyer took a deep breath, strode forward, and grabbed Eliza's arm.
"Enough!" Sawyer's voice was very loud.
Eliza was startled.
"Look at what you look like now. You made yourself look so terrible for a man! If your parents saw it, they would be heartbroken!"
"Since things have already become like this, you should cheer up. Don't forget that there's still a child in your belly, Braint, Demarion and Liliana that needs to be taken care of. As a mother, you're so fragile. How can you take care of a child?"
Eliza's entire body trembled as she looked at the nearby Braint and the rest with teary eyes.
The children were all crying. They were clearly worried and afraid, but they didn't dare to cry loudly in front of Eliza, afraid that they would irritate her.
Such good children, the pain of losing their father was no less than hers, but they didn't dare to show too much sadness.
Seeing Eliza look over, he even wiped his eyes and squeezed out a smile at her.
Eliza once again cried out loud, but she opened her arms wide to the children.
The children rushed over and threw themselves into Eliza's arms. The four of them hugged each other and cried bitterly.
The rest of the people in the room couldn't help shedding tears.
After venting her anger like this, Eliza could finally calm down a little.
Liliana was tired of crying and fell asleep directly.
Eliza carried her to the bed and patted her chest to coax her.
Braint and Demarion were depressed. Although they didn't fall asleep, they were still listless.
Eliza placed a kiss on their foreheads and gently asked, "Are you afraid?"
Braint shook his head.
Demarion opened his red and swollen eyes and asked her, "Mommy, is Daddy really not here?"
Eliza paused and looked at Demarion. "As long as we still remember him, he will always be in our hearts."
"Now, let's go take Daddy home together, okay?"
Demarion nodded. "What about my sister?"
"She's tired. Let her wait here."
"Okay."
Eliza held their little hands tightly and then walked out.
Sawyer stopped them and said, "Wait, don't go out now."
Eliza looked at Sawyer with hostility in her eyes.
"I don't want to talk to you now. Get out of my way."
She could tell that Sawyer didn't have much reaction to Beau's death. When he tried to persuade her, he was particularly calm and didn't have the slightest emotional fluctuation.
In addition to what had happened before, Eliza didn't like Sawyer at all. If she hadn't been in a hurry to find Chester, she would have fought with him again.
Sawyer was flustered by Eliza's cold gaze, but he still said stubbornly, "The media is outside now, and you will be blocked when you go out."
"Eliza, it's fine if you want to do with it alone. Do you want to make Braint and Demarion suffer with you?"
Braint glanced at Sawyer coldly and said, "We are not afraid."
Demarion, "Yes! As long as we are with Mommy, we are not afraid of anything!"
"You heard that? This is our family affair. Please don't meddle in our business," Eliza said coldly.
Then she was about to go around Sawyer.
Sawyer had no choice but to take out a gift box from his pocket.
"Wait, I have something for you."
Eliza ignored him and didn't even turn her head.
Sawyer said, "This is what Beau entrusted me with. I must give it to you."
Eliza stopped in her tracks.
She turned around and took the gift box from Sawyer.
She opened it and took a look. Tears welled up in her eyes.
It was a pair of earrings, shaped like the Star-Moon. The diamond embedded in it was crystal clear, and it looked valuable.
"He asked me to find a foreign designer to make it. He wanted to give it to you as a birthday gift, but... you will wear it, right?"
Sawyer asked uncertainly.
Eliza didn't say anything and silently put on her earrings. She looked at the empty gift box and tears silently flowed down her face.
However, Sawyer secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
He finally found an opportunity to send the thing out.
However, Sawyer didn't notice that Braint was staring at him. Noticing his relaxed expression, he clenched his fists quietly.
