As soon as the staff heard I was Jeff's wife, their expressions changed, and they quickly let me in.
I pushed through the crowd and finally found Jeff, who was hugging Ida and competing.
The two of them clung to each other, their faces filled with happy smiles.
"Jeff! Mom is gone, come back and see her off on her final journey," I shouted, ignoring the cameras still rolling around us.
Annoyed by my interruption, Jeff shook off my hand and gently placed Ida on the ground.
"Wait here for me. I'll take care of this, alright?" Jeff said as he draped a coat over Ida.
Ida coyly nodded and tugged at his hand. "I'll wait for you."
The livestream viewers were confused by my appearance.
"Who is she?"
"No idea, she looks like some kind of crazy woman."
"I think I heard the staff say she's Jeff's wife..."
"What?! Impossible! Isn't he supposed to be Ida's perfect match? They look so good together!"
The people around me started pointing and whispering.
A troublesome matter? To him, my mother-in-law's passing and our family were just a 'troublesome matter'.
