Chapter 320:
Troy scratched his head. “I always wondered how Mabel could know someone from Marsey Island, then |
discovered this.” He pulled out a phone and handed it to Jayden. “A woman named Kaelyn Bennett introduced
them to Mabel because Mabel owes her agency eighty million.”
After reading the chat records between Mabel and Kaelyn, Jayden becpensive. As soon as he tied the knot
with Elyse, he looked into Kaelyn’s past. She appeared average, yet sparts of her life were mysteriously
absent. He had too much on his plate then to delve deeper into it. When he tied the knot with Elyse, he had
checked into Kaelyn’s past and knew that she had a mysterious backer. He couldn't understand why she would
keep going against Elyse. After all, Elyse had married him for months, and she had nothing to do with Theo now.
Troy asked with concern, “Boss, is Mrs. Owen safe? It's been a whole day.” He had been searching for an entire
day, yet there was no sign of Elyse.
Jayden instructed, “Get Tobin here. Has there been any word from Lanny?”

Just as Troy was about to call Tobin, Tobin burst into the study looking grave. “Sir, our men reported that Lanny
and Glenda drove home. It seems they brought someone with them.”
Jayden narrowed his eyes and demanded, “Who?”
Tobin hesitated. “Judging from that person's figure, it wasn’t Mrs. Owen, but Mabel.”

Jayden snapped to attention and slammed his fist on the table, cursing. “These two old fools! Also, | had
someone check their recent activities. They went to the bank yesterday afternoon, withdrew five million, and
then drove to another city.”
Jayden immediately grasped the situation. He stood up with a dark expression and said, “Go ruin their place.”
Troy and Tobin exchanged looks. They believed Lanny and Glenda had really stepped on a landmine this time.
When Glenda and Lanny got home, they locked the door and cautioned Mabel to stay inside. Mabel was terrified.
Besides, she still owed eighty million dollars, so she dared not venture outside. After addressing Mabel’s
situation, Lanny and Glenda finally sat down to catch their breath.
But soon after, Glenda asked anxiously, “If Jayden finds out we didn’t rescue Elyse, will he retaliate?”
Lanny lit a cigarette and inhaled deeply. The nicotine helped clear his mind. He pondered briefly, then
speculated, “Not necessarily. Maybe Jayden isn’t that attached to Elyse. Perhaps he’s just been playing the part
of a devoted husband. He might simply find someone else.”
“But why do | feel uneasy?” Glenda wasn’t convinced. She was troubled and said somberly, “Don’t you think it
was too easy to rescue Mabel? | was expecting more resistance.”
“Let's get ssleep. We'll discuss this tomorrow,” Lanny said with a snort.
After that conversation, they were just about to head upstairs when they suddenly heard a loud rumbling noise
outside. Lanny went to the window and pulled back the curtain. Right outside, two excavators stood outside their
yard.

He exclaimed, “What's going on?” His voice caught Glenda’s attention, but the sight of the excavators left her
stunned.
In disbelief, she asked, “Honey, are those excavators here for our house?” As she finished talking, the excavators
headed straight for their house, ready to take down everything in their way.
The well-arranged, beautiful yard was soon turned into ruins. At this disturbance, the household staff, who had
been asleep, noticed the commotion and ran outside. Just as they emerged, one of the excavators demolished
sparts of the house.
“Mom! How can | sleep with those machines making noise? Get them out of here,” Mabel complained, emerging
from the elevator in her pajamas, clearly annoyed.
“Sleep? We need to run!” Realizing the excavators had destroyed the yard and were now close to the house,
Lanny panicked and quickly led them out.
He stood before the excavators and pleaded loudly, “I don’t know who you are, but please let us go!”
Their pleas fell on deaf ears. The excavators continued their destruction, reducing half of their hto rubble.
Trembling, Mabel uttered, “Dad, our house, our house is gone. Who would do this?”
