Chapter 707: The Depths of the Bailey Family are Not Ordinary
After Tina left, Elsa immediately burst into tears. Seeing this, her mother-in-law hurriedly took her hand, "Elsa,
what's the matter?"
"Mom, I'm fine, I'm just too happy," Elsa wiped away her tears and said, "I can finally see a glimmer of hope."
Her mother-in-law also cried joyfully, "Yes, after so many years, we can finally see shope."
Elsa grasped her mother-in-law's hand and whispered, "I'm sorry, mom and dad, I've made you suffer all these
years because of me. | am so grateful that you never abandoned me." "What nonsense are you talking about?"
her mother-in-law patted her hand and said, "Once you married Austin, we becone family. Besides, do you
think we are unreasonable people? It wasn't your fault. It's those people who harmed your family and now they
want to harm ours too."
"Fortunately, we encountered Miss Reed. | see that Miss Reed is quite capable. With her around, you don't have
to worry about your belongings being stolen."
Elsa nodded, "I didn't expect that a small act of kindness from years ago would be remembered for so long. | just
think that once Austin's legs are healed, our family will work hard to get back on our feet. When we have money,
we will repay Miss Reed."
"Right," her mother-in-law nodded, "That's how it should be. She cto repay a favor, but she gave too much.
If it weren't for her, your father and | might have been paralyzed by those people. It's her choice to give, but if
we have the means and don't repay, that would show we lack decency."
At that moment, Elsa's father-in-law pondered and said, "Elsa, I've been thinking, why don't you hand over what
you have to Miss Reed?"
Elsa was stunned and did not respond, instead she pondered.

Her father-in-law continued, "I see that Miss Reed is very strong. She is not afraid of the Bailey family, and it
seems she doesn't consider even the hidden families a threat. Therefore, she can surely protect that item."
Austin also nodded in agreement, "Elsa, | think dad is right. It's not that we are afraid of death or don't want to
invite trouble, but that item is too important. You don't want it to fall into the hands of the hidden family, but
with our family's situation, it's too difficult to guard it..."
"Today you saw it yourself. If it weren't for Miss Reed, mom and dad would have been crippled by them. Then,
the whole family would rely on you. Even so, they won't stop chasing you. I think, it might be better to hand the
item over to Miss Reed. She seems to have good character and wouldn't use it to harm others."
Elsa's eyes were downcast, and after a long contemplation, she spoke, "Actually, | had thought about this too,
but I don't know if Miss Reed would be willing to take it."
"How about we wait for Miss Reed to cthe day after tomorrow and ask her opinion?"
Austin suggested.
"Okay."
Meanwhile, at the Bailey family.
Ella Bailey stormed back home, furiously smashing everything in sight.
Mr. Bailey was in the study discussing matters with Luke Gill when he heard the noise and cout.
Seeing the mess his daughter had made, Mr. Bailey angrily exclaimed, "Nonsense! What are you raging about?"
Ella Bailey, seeing Luke Gill and not caring about Mr. Bailey's anger, grabbed a vase and hurled it at Luke Gill,
"Useless! Didn't you say that Elsa no longer had any capable people around her? Then why today, does she have
a girl by her side who could beatback with a single move?"
Luke Gill saw the vase flying towards him, his pupils shrank, but he stood his ground and did not dodge. The vase
smashed directly onto his head, and blood immediately began to flow.
Mr. Bailey, upon seeing this, slapped her hard, "Absolutely lawless! Have | ever taught you to hurt your husband,
to raise your hand against him?"
Ella Bailey, clutching her struck face, tears swirling in her eyes, protested, "Dad, I'm your daughter, why do you
always side with him? Don't you forget how the Dyer family fell from grace? He was able to destroy the Dyer
family, leaving them broken and destitute; he could do the sto our Bailey family."
"Shut up!"
Mr. Bailey snapped coldly.
"I know exactly what kind of man Luke is, better than you. Remember, he's your husband. Don't treat him like
he's nothing. If I see you shouting at him again, don't blme if | throw you out!"
After saying this, Mr. Bailey turned to Luke Gill, "Are you alright?"
Luke Gill shook his head, "Dad! I'm fine."
Then, Luke Gill looked at Ella Bailey and said with a smile, "Ella, are you upset because of Elsa? Is she still
refusing to hand it over?"
He was smiling, but his eyes did not smile.
Ella Bailey glared at him. She wanted to retort, but upon meeting Mr. Bailey's icy gaze, she swallowed her words
and said angrily, "It's more than her just refusing to hand over the item. She's found a powerful backer, barely in
his twenties, with unfathomable martial skills. Woods and | didn't stand a chance against her; we were defeated
instantly."

Luke Gill was momentarily stunned, but before he could speak, Mr. Bailey intervened, "Woods was personally
trained by me. Among all the bodyguards in the Bailey family, his skills are among the best. How could someone
defeat him so easily? What foolish thing have you done now?"
Mr. Bailey blamed Ella Bailey without knowing the full story, nearly driving her to fury. Her eyes reddened as she
retorted, "What do you mean, 'what foolish thing have | done'? Dad, aren't all these things you askedto do?
How cyou blme when things don't work out?"
"You..." Mr. Bailey was about to scold her when Ella Bailey cut in, "You want to get that item from Elsa, to
ingratiate yourself with the Langdon family, usingas cannon fodder. Not only did you drive Erickson away,
but you also forcedto marry this duplicitous scoundrel. And now, it's all my fault!"
"If it weren't for Erickson, do you think I'd willingly do these foolish things for you? What does that item have to
do with me? What have | got against Elsa? You listen to this scoundrel every day, using me-are you really my
father?" "You insolent thing! How dare you speak tolike that!"
Mr. Bailey, furious, clutched his chest, nearly unable to stand.
At that moment, a woman about Ella Bailey's age cout, supporting a dignified, elegantly dressed woman in
her forties.
"Ella, how can you speak to Dad like that? Dad loves and spoils you, but you can't take his love for granted and
be so lawless, not even respecting your own father," said the woman, twisting her waist like a snake, exuding a
certain coquettish
air.
She was Ella Bailey's stepsister, Kelly.
Upon seeing her, Ella Bailey exploded, "Shut up! You have no right to speak here! A bastard child no one can see,
just like your mother, neither of you are any good!"
