When the Wind is Sweet: The Fairy Tale of Mr. and Mrs. Lancaster-Chapter 650: Plea for Mercy

Elias Young has been arrested, this is a major event in the financial world, shocking countless people! Discussions ensue.

Many independent media bloggers, various news sections, and newspapers have started releasing news, speculating on the subsequent developments.

Can Elias Young still get out, or will he be in prison for several years? Or, could he face the death penalty?

When Melanie Lancaster saw this news, she turned deathly pale with fright, her heart sinking into despair!

Even Elias Young has been arrested, then who else can save her son???

Not a shred of hope was visible, not in the slightest!

She sat in the chair, dazed for a moment, grabbed the car keys, and got up to leave.

Deciding to return to the Lockwood Old Manor, to plead with her father!

Even if she would be scolded harshly, she couldn’t just watch Brandon go to jail! If her father refused, then she would plead with Adrian Lancaster.

In any case, she must save her son!

At the Lancaster Family’s old manor.

The old man also saw the news, Elias Young was arrested, and the scene was very thrilling, as dramatic as a movie.

He knew this was Adrian Lancaster’s doing, surely he had gathered incriminating evidence and handed it over to the police, which led to this turn of events.

He didn’t intervene nor call to inquire about the details, becoming a bit worried about Adrian because he was too righteous.

Behind Elias Young, there must be many others. 𝒻𝘳ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝒷𝘯ℴ𝓋ℯ𝘭.𝑐ℴ𝑚

And this society, is not as pure as we see.

Soon, he saw a familiar car drive into the courtyard, come to a stop, the door open, and his daughter Melanie Lancaster stepped out and walked inside...

The old man returned to his senses, his gaze landing on his daughter.

As Melanie entered the door, her father noticed she looked much more haggard, and her complexion wasn’t good.

"Hello, Miss Lancaster." The servants greeted her briefly and then turned to leave.

"Dad." Melanie approached the old man, her nose tingled, and with tears in her eyes, she said, "Save Brandon, please..."

Counting on Elias Young was impossible; she truly had no other solution.

"The only one who can save him is himself." The old man sat on the sofa, withdrawing his gaze, picked up the cup on the coffee table, took a sip of tea, and gently set the cup down again. "I’ve already been informed; he’ll have to serve at least three years in prison. You need to be mentally prepared."

Three years! Over a thousand days!

Melanie Lancaster’s heart was bleeding, tears welled up uncontrollably, "Dad, he’s also your blood... please, I’m begging you to show mercy and save him." Her voice was trembling.

"He is an adult and must be accountable for his actions." The old man’s brows furrowed slightly, "Can you imagine how pained I am?"

Melanie squatted down in front of her father, holding his hand, sobbing sorrowfully, "Dad..."

"He is also part of our family, but have you regretted raising him this way?"

"..." The middle-aged woman was rendered speechless.

"Brandon is still young, and only by truly reforming in prison can he realize his mistakes. This is an experience in his life. You mustn’t be so shortsighted as to think it’s a lifelong setback."

"Dad..."

"Melanie, it is precisely your indulgence that has led to his recklessness today, showing contempt for life, targeting his own family. I’m truly heartbroken!" The old man’s heart truly ached, wishing he could give him a few hard slaps!

Her father’s clarity made Melanie Lancaster feel utterly ashamed.

She had wanted the Prestige Group and had thought of defeating Adrian Lancaster, but... she suddenly didn’t know what to say.

As a mother, at this moment, she only wished to save her son.

"Melanie, indulgence can be deadly, especially a mother’s unconditional doting."

The old man was aged, but truly wise.
