Ryan grabbed Zoe by the neck. Outside, Phoebe felt that things were about to sedate. With a strong, kick, the

bars through the wooden door, catching Ryan off guard as his neck took a hard hit.

The impact was significant; Ryan was thrown to the ground. He looked up at Zoe in front of him, surprise flashing

in his

eyes.

Before he could even think about fighting back, Phoebe charged forward, grating him by his collar. Her voice

dripped with anger as she shouted, “Who do you think you are, deciding the fate of others?

A smirk appeared on Ryan's face. “I raised her!”

As soon as those words left his mouth, he received a powerful punch to the jew Wiping away the blood that

trickled from the corner of his mouth, Ryan regarded Phoebe with a twisted sense of amusement.

He said, “Little girl, you're quite strong, | assyou work out regularly?”

He made his move, taking advantage of Phoebe’s momentary distraction and delivering a sharp kick to her back.

They instantly beclocked in a fierce struggle.

Though Ryan was skilled in combat, Phoebe stood her ground, and for a long time, they were evenly matched.

As their fight continued, the others arrived on the scene. Max rushed forward and delivered a quick kick to Ryan,

swiftly taking control with just a few skilled movements.

“You've picked the wrong place to cause trouble, haven't you?” Max kept his cool as he held Ryan's arms behind

his back.

Ryan said, “You two are ganging up on one person! Hardly seems fair

“If you think that’s unfair, should I let you go for a proper match?

“Go ahead.”

Max chuckled at Ryan's challenging expression, shaking his head in disbelief. “You seriously think you can

provokeinto letting you go? Not happening”

He then turned to Phoebe, instructing her, “Phoebe, geta rope. Something strong and thick.

At his command, Phoebe quickly grabbed a length of hemp rope from a hook and handed it over. “Max, this is

good. If you want something more, | can get you a chain from my place.”

“This will do. I'll keep an eye on him; he won't get away,” Max assured as he bound Ryan tightly. Turning to his

brothers, he said, “Let's get moving before we keep Elysia waiting too long

Jack said, “Phoebe, you're coming with us. Elysia called earlier and insisted on seeing you.”

Phoebe glanced at Zoe. “Jack, what will happen to her if | leave?”

“Don’t worry, she won't die. Besides, Damon comes by every day to give her water and food; she can hold on for

now.”

With that reassurance, Phoebe nodded. “Then I have no further concerns.”

In Jorlandia. Elysia stood by the large window, the night outside enveloping everything in silence. Just moments

ago, she had received a video from Phoebe. After much thought, she still couldn't understand the hostility

between herself and Ryan.

She was sure that, prior to this, she had never met Ryan. There could only be one explanation: something crucial

must have happened between Ryan and the Evans family.

There are no mountains of hatred born from nothing; Ryan's calculated schemes must surely have sreason

behind them.

Her gaze intensified as she grabbed her phone and called Yuna. “Look into the connection between Ryan and the

Evans family. | want results by tomorrow morning.”

“Got it.”

After the call ended, Elysia remained at the window, checking her watch. The elders should be here soon.

Tomorrow, the truth would finally cto light.

The next morning, just after six o'clock, Elysia cdown the stairs. She noticed Ryan, tightly bound, being

escorted in, and a playful spark appeared in her eyes.

Edward and the others, having heard the news, also made their way downstairs. Upon seeing Ryan on the floor,

surprise crossed their faces.

“Elysia, what's going on here?” Edward asked, pointing at Ryan, confusion evident on his face.

Elysia smiled subtly as she approached Quinita, then turned to the others with a playful tone. “How about |

entertain you with an interrogation?”

“An interrogation?”

“Yes.” After saying this, she released Quinita’s hand and walked over to join Jack, casually linking her arm with

his. “This is Jack, and next to him are Leo and Max.

As they descended the stairs earlier, the Evans had noticed the elders in the living room and had guessed their

identities, wanting to greet them. However, upon seeing the butler tied up on the floor, they hesitated, puzzled

by the situation.

Now, with Elysia’s introduction, Edward stepped forward and shook Jack’s hand respectfully. He then looked at

the other two, giving a slight nod.

Edward said, “I've long wanted to meet you. The last twe were at Silverstream, | missed the chance; I'm glad

Elysia’s reunion party has brought us together.

“For all these years, I'm truly thankful for how you've taken care of Elysia. No compensation could ever truly

express my gratitude.”

Listening to Edward, Jack could tell that this man was honorable and a good father, which eased his heart.

Jack replied, “Mr. Evans, we've treated Elysia like our own granddaughter, and we never sought anything in

return. As long as you treat Elysia well, we’ll have no regrets.

Edward nodded. “Rest assured, my daughter will never lack for anything under my care.

“Well said.” Jack nodded, his gaze drifting to the bound Ryan. “Elysia, let's get started.”

Looking back at Edward, he added, “Mr. Evans, let's step aside and observe this.”

The group settled into the sofa as Elysia regarded Ryan, a smile playing on her lips. “Now, why don’t you tell me?

What was your motive behind this?”

Ryan said, “I don’t understand what you mean.”

“It was you, wasn't it? The one who switched the babies at the hospital.
