NovelEnglishChapter 228:
Elyse gazed at Mabel with a gentle expression and said, “Please don’t cry. What can | do to help you?” Mabel
sobbed, pleading, “Elyse, could you providewith a few more compositions of yours? If | don’t release new
music, I'll fade from the entertainment scene, and the company will abandon me.” Tears filled her eyes as she
looked at Elyse. “With just a few compositions from you, | can revive my career.”
Elyse was about to respond when a wave of disappointment washed over her. Slowly retracting her hand, she
asked in a cold tone, “Did you ctojust to request compositions from me?”
Unaware of Elyse’s change in demeanor, Mabel replied with anguish, “I’m in such a desperate situation. Won't
you help me?”
Forcing a smile, Elyse replied with a hint of coldness, “Am | the cause of your misfortune? You didn’t earn your
way into the entertainment industry; you stole my works and passed them off as your own to get the chance.
Now that your career is crumbling, you expectto rescue you with my works. Why should | assist you? Just
because we're sisters?”
Mabel clenched her teeth, her gaze dripping with malice. Accustomed to her usual arrogance and dominance,
Mabel found it challenging to conceal her emotions.
The malice in Mabel’s eyes pierced Elyse’s heart. This was her younger sister, someone she had cared for since
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtchildhood. How could her sister look at her with such hostility? Elyse’s demeanor grew even colder. “I've warned
you before not to covet what isn’t yours.”
With a serious expression, Mabel retorted, “Elyse, I'm your sister. I'm in distress, yet you refuse to help me. Do
you even consideryour sister?”

Hearing Mabel’s words, Elyse’s anger ignited. Had her care and kindness towards Mabel in the past been in vain?
She shouldn’t have been so generous to her.
“You struggled with your studies in school, and it waswho assisted you every day. | stood up for you when
you were bullied. I've helped you countless times. Yet you seem to have forgotten all of that, haven't you?”
Elyse’s voice was tinged with disappointment.
Mabel angrily pushed the coffee in front of her off the table. “If you've helpedso many times, then why won't
you helpnow? You don’t seeas your sister. You've been weary offor a long time,” she demanded
fiercely.
Elyse felt utterly disappointed in Mabel. She rubbed her temples wearily, feeling the weight of painful memories
from the past bearing down on her like a relentless punishment. “Did you say | don’t treat you like my sister? |
don’t believe you seeas your sister. It’s more like you treatas your servant. You freely take whatever you
need from me, assuming I'll always provide whatever you desire,” Elyse ruthlessly exposed Mabel’s true
intentions. How could a sister behave in such a manner?
They seemed to be more like enemies than siblings. A bitter, self-deprecating smile crept onto Elyse’s lips. She
chuckled inwardly at herself for ever entertaining the notion that Mabel could be a supportive sister, especially
after her disappointments with Lanny and Glenda. Elyse recognized her own naivety once again.
“Please leave now. | won't give you any of my works. Just forget about it,” Elyse stated flatly.
Mabel was taken aback by her firmness. “But you're my sister. Why won't you help me? | just need a few
compositions. | don’t want anything else. Why won't you help me?” Mabel’s voice quivered with desperation.
Just like in the past when she was displeased, Mabel threw a tantrum and demanded until she got her way. But
Mabel misjudged the situation. Elyse was not like Glenda; she did not succumb to Mabel’s tactics.
With a steely gaze, Elyse pointed towards the exit of the lounge. “Leave immediately. | won't repeat it.”
“Giveyour compositions, Elyse Lloyd! Give them to me!” Mabel slammed her fists on the table and then
lunged for Elyse’s phone.
Elyse reacted swiftly, anticipating Mabel’s actions. She dodged to the side, keeping her phone out of Mabel’s
reach. Mabel's attempt to grab Elyse’s phone was thwarted when Elyse swiftly dodged again, causing Mabel to
slip and fall into the spilled coffee.
“Ahh!” Mabel cried out in pain as she noticed her hand covered in blood from the broken glass.
Elyse couldn't bear to see Mabel in pain and extended her hand to help her up. “Go himmediately.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“You're not even willing to offer assistance while I'm in such misery,” Mabel, her eyes reddened, confronted
Elyse, displaying her bleeding hand in front of her.
Elyse glanced at Mabel’s bleeding hand and uttered in a detached tone, “You've done this to yourself. It’s not my
responsibility.”
