BookToReadChapter 552:
Jayden, bewildered, asked, “What on earth happened?”
Elyse, with a patient demeanor, recounted the day’s events. Once the fog of confusion lifted from Jayden’s mind,
she anxiously said, “So, you're tellingthat the place where you hid the evidence of Lanny’s murder is now
nothing but a heap of rubble?”
Morgan, tears cascading down her cheeks, nodded. “Lanny has been on my trail for years, desperate to find the
evidence | possess.
Back then, when your parents were injured during that car accident, | was juggling the company’s stability and
their care.”
She took a moment to gather her thoughts before continuing, “I feared I might not be able to look after them
adequately, so | installed tiny cameras in each of your parents’ hospital rooms to keep an eye on their condition
round the clock.”
Elyse, utterly flabbergasted, exclaimed, “So you have footage of Lanny committing the murder?”
Morgan nodded once more. “Yes, | do. | inadvertently witnessed him killing your father. Since then, he’s been
relentless in his attempts to kill me. To elude his grasp, | hid the evidence in one of your parents’ urns.”

Her emotions now poured forth.
“I placed your parents’ urns in their old home, but Lanny and his wife occupied that house. | have no clue where
they moved the urns. When | went there this afternoon, the villa was reduced to a pile of debris!”

Elyse and Jayden exchanged a glance, their faces lighting up with realization. “Those urns are at my place!”
Morgan, still grappling with understanding, asked, “What did you say?”
Elyse seized Morgan's hand, her voice trembling with excitement. “It's true, the urns are at my house!”
Jayden glanced at the clock and said, “Then let's go hand get them now. But we need to check if the
surveillance evidence is still functional after all these years. I'll need to find someone who can examine it.”
Elyse nodded in agreement. “You're right. Even if we know where the footage is, we can’t be sure it still works.”
Learning the urns were with Elyse, a wave of relief washed over Morgan. She closed her eyes and took a deep
breath.
“Thank goodness, the evidence hasn't vanished,” she said.
Without delay, the tsped back to Jayden’s villa, heading straight to the room where the urns were kept.
At the door, Jayden opened it, and the three of them walked in together.
Seeing the urns on the table, Morgan's eyes filled with tears once more. She reached out to touch the now-rough
surface of the urns.
She remembered how, when she first received them, they were smooth and looked costly. In the span of twenty
years, they had weathered so much.
Taking a deep breath, Morgan opened the lid. She reached inside, fumbled around, and then pulled out a USB
drive, which she then handed to Jayden.
Jayden took it, his expression solemn, and said earnestly, “I'll handle this.”
Morgan nodded and reached into the urn once more, this ther search more thorough. When she pulled her
hand out, it was covered in ash.
Brushing off the residue, Morgan handed something to Elyse. “Here is a photo of your parents. It was taken when
your mother was newly pregnant, and you were just a couple of months old.”
Elyse accepted it with a sense of awe. She had never seen pictures of her parents before. When she asked Lanny
for them, he had always refused to give her.
Later, Jayden, unable to tolerate their evasiveness, had their hsearched, only to find nothing about her

Jayden theorized that they had destroyed all the photos to keep Elyse from uncovering anything about her
parents.
Elyse’s eyes filled with tears as she gazed at the photo.
In it, a handsman stood beside a gentle woman. They were in a photo studio, both radiating happiness,
smiling at the camera.
Jazmine’s hands rested on her stomach, and Rickey had a protective hand on Jazmine's shoulder.
Tears streamed down Elyse’s face as she looked at the photo. After a long moment, she whispered, “This is
incredible. | finally see my parents. | am so happy.”
Jayden longed to comfort her but found himself at a loss for words, so he simply stayed by her side, gently
patting her back.
Morgan sighed deeply. “If your parents were still alive, you would have undoubtedly had a joyful life. They were
such good people. It's a tragedy that Lanny took their lives.”
Jayden gently placed a reassuring hand on Elyse’s shoulder and vowed, “Trust me, | will seek justice for your
parents.”
Morgan nodded in agreement. “We won't let those monsters get away. They will pay the price they deserve!”
