Chapter 591:
With a menacing grin, Lanny declared, “You want a divorce? Alright! But you'll have to leave all the property
behind. Don’t think about taking a single cent from me.”
Glenda was seething with anger. She was astounded by how petty Lanny had become. After so many years of
marriage, he refused to give her anything!
Unable to hold back, Mabel intervened, “Mom has been with you for all these years. Now that she wants a
divorce, can’t you show skindness?”
Lifting his head to face her, Lanny questioned in a dark tone, “You encouraged her to divorce me, right?”
Mabel was taken aback by his accusation. She faltered briefly but quickly regained her composure.
“You've treated her horribly, never showing care. She's shattered because of you. Why shouldn't she divorce
you?”
“You believe that too?” Lanny asked, fixing his eyes on Glenda.
Glenda felt a chill as his gaze fell on her. She opened her mouth but was too terrified to speak, fearing he might
strike her if she uttered a word.

Seeing her mother intimidated, Mabel exclaimed furiously, “Hey, are you threatening her? Why must you be so
unreasonable? It’s clear that you are a terrible husband! You're not acting like a man!”
“Not a man? I'm your father! If I'm not a man, then how were you born?” With that, he slapped Mabel across the
face.
The force of the slap sent Mabel tumbling to the floor, her head striking the tile. She lay there, unable to rise.

“Oh, my! You've killed my daughter!” Glenda screamed, terror-stricken. She grabbed her phone and called Elyse.
While dialing, she shouted at him, “You've killed my daughter. I'm telling Elyse to call the police and have you
thrown in jail!”
Lanny was infuriated by Glenda’s actions. He hadn't anticipated that Glenda would actually call Elyse. It was
clear to him that she was trying to rat him out.
She was determined to get rid of him, but he refused to be dismissed.
Enraged, he shattered the beer bottle against Glenda'’s forehead. The bottle broke into countless pieces,
scattering glass shards and spilling beer across the floor.
Glenda trembled and went silent, then collapsed.
Blood streamed from her forehead, quickly staining the couch red.
At that moment, Mabel regained consciousness. She felt a sharp pain and managed to get up from the floor.
Then she saw Glenda lying in a blood-soaked mess.
Terrified, she screamed and lunged toward the couch. Ignoring the glass on the floor, she reached out to check
Glenda’s breathing. Finding that she was still breathing, she urgently said to Lanny, “What are you doing just
standing there? Call an ambulance! Do you want to watch her die?”
Lanny’s chest heaved with heavy breaths. After a few seconds, his rage subsided. Witnessing the blood on
Glenda’s face, he slowly grasped the severity of his actions.
“You two want to cut ties with me, don’t you? If you're both dead, you don’t have to seeagain,” Lanny said
icily.
He then turned to leave.
Mabel stared at him, shock widening her eyes. She clutched the hem of his clothes and demanded, “How could
you say that? You caused this, yet you just left her to die? Are you even a man?”

“If you're unhappy, call 911 yourself and take her to the hospital. You pushed her to divorce me, now you can try
to save her,” Lanny retorted with a sneer.
Mabel was left speechless.
Suddenly she noticed his wallet in his pocket. Acting on impulse, she reached for it.
Lanny quickly caught her hand, shielding his wallet, and slapped her.
He shouted, “How dare you try to steal my money! I will kill you!”
The force of the slap caused Mabel to lose her balance, and she fell onto the shattered glass, her head spinning.
After Lanny stormed out, Mabel remained seated on the floor among the broken glass for minutes before
regaining her senses. But seeing the chaos around her and Glenda still unconscious, she was overwhelmed by
despair.
With no other options, she pulled out her phone and dialed Kaelyn’s number.
At that moment, only Kaelyn seemed capable of helping them.
She anxiously waited for Kaelyn to answer the phone. As soon as she heard Kaelyn’s voice, Mabel burst into
tears and cried, “Kaelyn, help me!”
