Elara was driving. When she heard her assistant's words, she smiled helplessly. "If you face an enemy stronger than you and have oppressed you for a long time, can you use normal methods to solve the problem?"

"His father isn't a powerful person. Isn't he just an old man from the village?" The assistant was confused.

"But in their home, at least for all these years, he has always had he initiative. It's what people are like. After being locked in a cage for a long time, even if the cage opens one day, the person who is locked up doesn't dare to go out easily. It's human nature. They're full of weaknesses and are easy to manipulate."

Most of the time, it was not the outside world that restricted him, but their inner demons.

Tyler Gilbert, Silas's father, was the inner demon in Silas's heart.

Silas was afraid and hated him to the core, but he did not dare to resist easily...

Therefore, when he resisted, he wanted to kill the other party in one go.

Silas didn't want to give his father chances to torture him. That was why he'd schemed so hard and been so ruthless.

The assistant looked at Elara and said, "You know quite a lot. But... why do you seem to be very experienced

After some silence, Elara said, "I've seen such a person before. He's outstanding outside but was like Silas in front of his father."

That person was naturally Asher.

Asher's situation was similar to Silas's.

However, in comparison, Asher was considered the lucky one.

He had left his father and was getting better now.

She thought back to when she'd seen him this morning. He'd said he didn't know how to interact with people.

Elara returned to the Hawthorne family's residence. As soon as she entered, Zavala sent a message saying she had made ravioli at home and asked Elara to come and eat them. Felicity was not around, and no one else was in the Hawthorne family's house. It looked cold.

Therefore, Elara went to Zavala's house.

Elara ate with Zavala. Zavala sighed and said, "Adair still locked herself in her room and won't come down to eat. I don't know how long she'll be angry." Elara said, "The ravioli is delicious."

Zavala's eyes lit up. "If you like it, you can tell me anytime. I make ravioli especially well."
