EuropeNovelChapter 608:
Elyse looked at Glenda without any expression.
Even though Glenda had been cruel to her, Elyse had to acknowledge that Glenda was a dedicated mother to
Mabel.
However, the sight of Glenda’s lifeless body didn’t evoke any sympathy from her. She turned away and said,
“Mabel Lloyd is now out of town. | heard the news a quarter ago. Two days back, she was selling designer
handbags in an antique store. It seems Glenda has set her up well for the future.”
Morgan said with a smile, “So what? Mabel Lloyd has caused enough trouble. Even if she changes her nand
tries to start over, her creditors will track her down.”
Elyse agreed. “We'll see how long she can run.”
Morgan looked at her and whispered, “Leave her to me. | don’t want to get your hands dirty.”

Elyse was surprised and asked, “Huh?”
“Your hands are meant for playing the violin. Don’t get blood on them,” Morgan explained earnestly. She
preferred that Elyse stay clear of the mess. In her eyes, Rickey’s daughter was meant to remain untainted and
pure.
Elyse was confused. “I don’t think I'll get blood on my hands. Mabel Lloyd won't last long with her lack of smarts.
She'll probably break down before | even need to act.”
Morgan looked taken aback. “Is she really that foolish?”

Elyse confirmed with a nod. “Just wait and see if you doubt it. She had all the advantages but squandered them
because she inherited her parents’ ‘lawless’ genes.”
As they spoke, a police officer approached to escort them to the station to file a report.
While Morgan was providing her statement, Elyse headed to the station's lobby to grab swater.
Coincidentally, she met Lanny, who was now handcuffed. Seeing her so composed, Lanny felt irritated. He
stopped and said, “Elyse Lloyd, | never thought I'd lose to you. You're much cleverer than your father.”
Elyse took a calm sip from her disposable cup. “I'm not cleverer than him; he simply didn’t anticipate how
despicable you could be. You killed my father when he was vulnerable and in a coma.”
She looked up at Lanny with a cold stare. “Otherwise, how could a good-for-nothing like you have taken
everything from my father?”
Lanny laughed heartily at her words. After a moment, he stopped and said arrogantly, “I regret not killing you
when you were young. | should have sent your entire family to hell.”
Elyse responded lightly, “What a shame! Keepingalive was like setting a tbomb for yourself. | was bound
to uncover the truth eventually.”
Lanny, with a forced smile, inquired, “Are you saying my error led to this outcome?”
“Perhaps.” Elyse grinned. “My dear Uncle Lanny, you've enjoyed the riches for years. It's tto give it all back.
Hope you rot in prison.”

Lanny clenched his teeth, pondering whether he had truly been defeated. He had no way to bounce back, did
he? He had been bested by Rickey’s daughter. Despite his reluctance, Lanny still thought he could reverse his
fortunes. After all, he had only accidentally killed Glenda, right?
Glenda was his wife. He had accidentally killed her. He believed he wouldn't face charges since Glenda was his
wife. His wife wouldn't hold it against him!
Lanny found a reasonable excuse for his crime. He pleaded with the police officers, “Wait a moment. Please hear
prison. Letgo!”
Lanny repeated his plea, but the officers didn’t react. They escorted him towards a detention room. Lanny was
unlikely to ever walk free from jail this time.
Elyse observed him, feeling a weight lift from her chest. Lanny, the architect of her family’s downfall, would no
longer be free.
Morgan emerged after providing her statement and saw Elyse standing distractedly in the lobby. Unaware that
Elyse had encountered Lanny, she asked, “What are you up to?”
Elyse replied thoughtfully, “The two who murdered my parents have received their punishment. Should | now lay
my parents’ ashes to rest and let them find peace?”
