The Heiress Who Took Revenge

Chapter 626 Suicide

“Do you have any idea what you were just doing? Strangling Eliza? I always knew you were foolish, but I never thought you were this foolish!” Tyson said coldly, “Control your own hands. Don't overreach. Otherwise, you won't be going anywhere in the future.” Tyson turned and left after saying this, and Julio didn't even spare Elaine a glance. Elaine watched their departing backs, the indignation and anger on her face now replaced by calm. It was just as Eliza had said: if she didn't get leverage on Tyson soon, she would be killed by him sooner or later. The Lynn family's assets would become his, and she would have no way to fight back. Meanwhile, Eliza had walked over to Nolan and, in a complaining tone, told him everything that had just happened. Tyson and Julio had also returned to the reception hall. The previously noisy crowd was now quiet. Realizing it had just been a tripped breaker, their expressions were completely different from before. “I said it before, this place is in disrepair. A family banquet really shouldn't be held here. I think we should just call it a night.” “I also feel this banquet was too hasty. We can't treat Ms. Rivers poorly. It would be better to hold another banquet later.” Because people had died in this mansion, these people didn't want to be near it and only wanted to leave quickly. Nolan and Eliza had long expected this group would say this, so Nolan spoke up, “It was hasty today, and the banquet was a bit simple. Let's hold another family banquet in a few days.” At this moment, Elaine also walked over from the corridor. As she approached, she and Eliza exchanged a look. Both understood: a deal had been struck between them. “Don't leave just yet. Eliza and I are planning to spend the night here. Uncle, you also grew up in this house. Why don't you stay as well…” “Not necessary. I have other things to attend to tonight. Yiyi and Ms. Rivers had a conflict today, and I feel terrible about it. I'll bring Yiyi to apologize to Ms. Rivers another day.” Tyson was unwilling to stay. After saying this, he ordered Julio to leave with Elaine. The people who already supported Tyson saw he was leaving and naturally didn't dare to stay. So, one after another, they followed Tyson out of the reception hall.In just a few moments, only Eliza and Nolan were left in the hall. Eliza glanced at Nolan and said, “It's all settled.” “My Eliza is still the most impressive.” Nolan praised Eliza, but she felt that if Nolan hadn't thought to set the location at the Hayes family home, those people wouldn't have felt so guilty and afraid. “But you still haven't told me why they're so afraid.” “'If you've done nothing wrong, you won't fear a knock at the door.' They're afraid.” These people had relied on their status as Hayes family members to do many shady things behind the scenes. Coming to this place, of course they'd be afraid. Eliza looked at the surroundings. This was her first time in Nolan's former home. There was no trace of the fire to be seen. It was clear it had been meticulously renovated, but still, no one dared to set foot here. “I made a deal with Elaine just now. She is the person closest to Tyson right now, and the one best positioned to find out his secrets. To ensure she can get leverage on Tyson as soon as possible, Elaine will find out his secrets within the month.” “Using her strength against him... I'm even more impressed with you, Eliza.” Nolan had long known Eliza was smart, but he hadn't expected her to come up with such a good idea so quickly. Eliza shook her head. “But I do think it's a bit... strange... that Tyson agreed to come to the family banquet so readily today.” Before Eliza could finish, Nolan's phone rang. The voice on the other end sounded urgent, and then came a piece of bad news neither of them had expected. “Mr. Hayes! Wendy committed suicide!” Hearing Wendy had committed suicide, the two of them immediately ran out of the Hayes house. Eliza had clearly saved Wendy before, so how could she suddenly kill herself now? Besides, Henry had already removed all dangerous items from the hospital room. There was no way for Wendy to do it. By the time Eliza and Nolan arrived at the hospital, all they saw was a body in the morgue, already covered with a white sheet. The doctor said, “She's dead. When she was found, her carotid artery had been cut. From the angle of the cut, it was suicide. She wasn't breathing.”
