The gesture that turned the ceremony upside down
As the ceremony ends and the songs echo under the vaults of the church, Bella emerges like an arrow. She rushes straight to the coffin, knocks over the flower arrangements and starts barking relentlessly. A leaden silence fell on the assembly. All eyes converge on the animal. Sylvain, troubled, feels a shiver run down his spine. He knows his dog too well to ignore her warnings: it's not a simple anxiety attack. Bella has sensed something. Without hesitation, he approaches the coffin... and decides to open it.

A blood-curdling disappearance
The lid creaks, the atmosphere becomes unreal. The coffin is empty. The shock was immediate. Her mother collapsed, the victim of a fainting, and Sylvain rushed her to the hospital. But one question is already bothering him: where has his father's body gone? Sylvain's uncle immediately called out to the funeral services director. The confusion is total. No one understands. However, the forensic doctor had confirmed the death and handed over the body.
