Chapter 296 It's Elyse's Fault
Lanny relentlessly pounded the iron fence like crazy, generating a loud sound.
Hiding behind Glenda, Mabel cast an apprehensive glance outside the villa, querying, "Mom, it's the first instance I've witnessed Dad in such a rage. Will he resort to violence against me?"
Shielding Mabel, Glenda subdued her trepidation, tenderly patting Mabel's shoulder and assuring,
"Go back to your room for now. I shall converse with him."
Mabel furrowed her brow, proposing, "Maybe I should talk to him. After all, I initiated this
predicament. If I elucidate, he may empathize with us and take our side."
Confident that Jayden posed no imminent threat, Mabel reasoned that even if he did, he wouldn't do anything to harm them for Elyse's sake.
Her strategy now hinged on enlisting Elyse's surrender and support.
"No way! His anger renders him deaf to reason." Following a loud retort, Glenda pelled herself
to regain posure. She ushered Mabel back to her room and instructed, "Return to your room momentarily. Ill talk to him."
After chauffeuring Mabel to her room, Glenda urged herself to
pose and proceeded to operate the iron fence using a button.
"Where the hell are you two? Glenda, show your face immediately, or I'll burn the house!" Lanny
ran into the yard, shouting.
Glenda emerged at the porch, wearing a solemn expression. She feigned posure and uttered,
"Stop shouting. e in first."
Upon spotting Glenda, Lanny's fury ignited. He briskly approached her and administered a
forceful slap, catching Glenda off guard, and causing her to stumble.
Before Glenda could recover from the slap, Lanny menced assaulting her.
"You bitch! How dare you ignore my calls? I shall end you!" Lanny's eyes glinted with fury. Groaning in agony, Glenda lay sprawled on the floor.
From her room, Mabel peeked and witnessed Glenda's assault.
"Stop it! You will kill Mom!" Mabel intervened urgently.
"Stop harming Mom. She acted on my behalf!"
Mabel shielded her mother, embracing her tightly to prevent further attacks from Lanny.
Lanny's anger intensified upon seeing her. "How dare you appear before me? This is entirely your fault!"
Mabel countered, "I was defending my career! You don't understand
me at all."

"You sought only to ruin our lives! e with me! Apologize to Jayden and plead for our lives!"
Lanny shouted furiously as he delivered a kick.
Mabel, her hand covering her abdomen, uttered slowly, "That's impossible! Elyse destroyed my career. I demand an apology from her!"
"You're dragging us down!"
Lanny, seething with rage, lifted his hand, poised to strike Ve) w
Glenda rose to her feet, shielding Mabel. She couldn't bear the thought of her daughter enduring violence, so she spoke with sorrow. "Please, don't harm her. She's your daughter. Doesn't it pain you to see her career destroyed?
Mabel cried out, "Hit me! Just kill me! You don't care about me anyway. You won't defend me. You're not fit to be called a father!"
With eyes ablaze and breaths ragged, Lanny hesitated, but the slap never landed.
"You'll end up killing us all!" Lanny refrained from striking her in the end.
Glenda embraced Mabel tightly, tears flowing freely as she inquired about any
injuries
"You've spoiled her. Look at the mess she's made. You will get yourself killed because of her!"
Lanny exclaimed, unable to contain his frustration.

violent ways."
"Bastard!" Lanny clenched his teeth with hatred, but ultimately
refrained from giving a slap.
After a brief silence, he let out a heavy sigh before speaking, "Have you considered how to address Jayden's anger?"
Mabel rolled her eyes, questioning, "Are you really that scared of him?" Jayden is Elyse's husband now, and I'm her sister. Even if I harmed her, what could Jayden do to me?"
After a moment of silence, she went on, "Elyse wouldn't ask him to harm her own sister. I'll just
have a chat with Elyse about it and she will forgive us.
"You've certainly figured out your escape plan," remarked Lanny.
Mabel retorted, "Consider it. You're Elyse's father. What could Jayden really do to you?"
"Are you certain he will forgive us? What if he doesn't?"
Mabel said, "If he refuses to forgive us, then it's Elyse's fault, She should be able to convince Jayden to let us go!"
