How About I Cook Dinner For You
Glenda, shocked by Elyse's actions, rushed to Mabel's aid, helping her up from the floor. "Honey, let me see your face," she asked, filled with concern.
Elyse watched them with a blank expression and said, "Mabel, you've really disappointed me.
You're my sister, and yet, you spread my information for those cyberbullies."
"Do you have any proof that I did it? I didn't!" Mabel firmly denied any involvement.
Glenda defended Mabel as well. "That's right. Why accuse your sister of such a thing? Don't be ridiculous!"
With her arms crossed, Elyse turned to Lanny, who had remained silent the whole time, and smiled. "Dad, Jayden mentioned this is just the first instance. If Mabel repeats her actions, his cooperation with you could be at risk..."
Upon hearing that his interests might be affected, Lanny's demeanor shifted. "I understand. Tell
him I will ensure Mabel doesn't repeat this."
Mabel was stunned. It was the first time Lanny had not taken her side. "Dad, why aren't you
helping me? Are you taking Elyse's side?"
Elyse glanced at Mabel and added, "Mabel, do you want to risk bringing down not just me but our
entire family? If Jayden reconsiders his partnership, how will you compensate for the loss?"Belonging © NôvelDram/a.Org.
Seeing the shift in Lanny's expression, Glenda immediately intervened, "Stop it. Mabel is your sister. How can you say that?"
"Since my words have no effect, perhaps you should lecture her yourself," Elyse
retorted.
Having said her piece and achieved her goal, Elyse was confident that Lanny would not disappoint
her. Despite his apparent affection for Mabel, profit and money ultimately held more sway.

"Dad, I'l skip the drinks and desserts. Enjoy," Elyse said, before exiting the house with poise. Mabel's eyes flashed with hatred. She thought Elyse was being too arrogant after getting married. "Dad, Mom, what was that attitude of Elyse just now?" she demanded, her face contorted with anger.
That's enough! What right do you have to blame her after what you've done? You even leaked her personal information online?" Lanny slammed his hand on the table, rebuking her sharply. Glenda observed Mabel throwing another tantrum, causing concern to creep in at the back of her mind.
Her concern was mostly for Mabel's career. It appeared Mabel had indeed attended that scandalous orgy, but Mable was her beloved daughter, and she felt compelled to support her. She cast a discreet glance at Lanny. Addressing this issue would be costly, and fortunately, Lanny had recently made a significant amount from his dealings with the Owen family. Glenda pondered whether she
could allocate some funds to salvage her daughter's career.
As soon as Elyse left, she hurried to Jayden, a smile brightening her face. "Did you help with the rumors online? The trending topics have vanished, and the posts are deleted."
Jayden didn't look up. "It took some effort, but putting your sister's name on the trending list was easier than expected."
"She's at home crying now. I had no idea she would attend such an orgy. It's quite shocking." "If she can't handle a minor setback, how will she thrive in the cutthroat entertainment industry?" Jayden remarked.
Elyse blinked at him and suggested, "You've been a great help. How about I cook dinner for you?"
