"What's the situation with Missy now? Is she still living at Regal Heights Estate?" I couldn't help but ask.

Vance clicked his tongue several times and replied, "No, she moved out over a week ago."

I was a bit surprised.

But Missy, willing to move out?

"What's going on?"

Vance's expression was a mix of difficulty and sentiment, "I have to say, Missy is really something else. Even with all my experience, it's rare to see someone as outrageous as her."

I took a sip of coffee.

When I was pregnant, I avoided coffee for the sake of the baby, but now I love the taste even more.

After finishing my coffee, I continued to wait for Vance to elaborate.

"Missy had only been in the neighborhood for less than a month before she caused a lot of trouble. The residents were complaining, and she even caused some incidents. In the end, Lawrence had to step in. But Lawrence, as filial as he might seem, only visited her twice in the first two weeks after sending her there, and then almost never again.

Missy's daily life was managed by regular food deliveries.

Later, Missy got bored and started wandering around the neighborhood, bragging about how capable Lawrence was, how many properties he owned, and how daughters of CEOs were chasing after him. While praising Lawrence, she would belittle other people's sons, saying they were ugly and couldn't compare to Lawrence.

She also said other people's sons were short, while Lawrence looked like a movie star. People tolerated her at first, not wanting to argue with her, knowing how unreasonable and vulgar she could be. But Missy found it less entertaining and started thinking of new ways to get attention.

She spread rumors about other people's daughters having affairs, working at nightclubs, and coming home late at night, possibly catching diseases.

Many daughters were slandered by her, but the worst was with two families. One girl, who was about to get married, had her engagement called off because of Missy's rumors. When confronted, Missy mocked them, saying the girl's boyfriend must have found out she was unfaithful and deserved to be dumped, claiming it had nothing to do with her.

The girl's family, who were teachers and respected people, were so angry that they slapped Missy. She then made a scene, claiming she was beaten and bullied, and loudly questioned who would trust their children with such a violent teacher. The girl, fearing for her parents' jobs and dignity, ended up compensating Missy and leaving in disgrace.

After that incident, Missy seemed to enjoy the benefits and escalated her behavior, falsely accusing another family's daughter of having an affair. This led to the husband almost beating his wife to death. The woman's parents intervened but were also severely beaten. The husband fled, and it was only when neighbors called the police that the truth came out."

"Shouldn't Missy have been arrested by the police?"

Melinda knew Missy loved to gossip about others. When they lived together, Missy would often gossip about the neighbors, but initially, she held back to deceive me. As things got worse, I would intervene and suppress the issues, but I never imagined Missy could be even more malicious than I thought.

"She was arrested and educated, but Lawrence paid a fine, and she was released after being detained for several days. When she got out, she cursed Lawrence, saying she had raised him with great effort, and he was ungrateful for letting her go to jail. She claimed she had only gossiped about others' family matters and never caused anyone's death.

Lawrence finally got angry and warned her that if she continued, there would be no hope for a wealthy daughter-in-law."

I nodded. Lawrence knew exactly how to handle Missy. I had previously misunderstood, thinking he was caught in the middle, but he never loved me and wasn't willing to inconvenience his mother for my sake.

"What happened next?" I still wanted to hear the whole story.

Vance continued, "Missy calmed down for a while, probably realizing that despite her antics, Clara hadn't visited her and was afraid of truly angering Clara, which would jeopardize her comfortable life.

But Missy couldn't stay quiet for long. The residents already had a strong opinion of her, and she resented them for testifying against her, leading to her imprisonment.

She would either scatter trash everywhere, making it particularly smelly, or throw garbage in front of people's doors, especially the foul-smelling kind.

Occasionally, she would scare the elderly who were taking care of children, taking the kids away to play and returning them only when confronted, causing a lot of distress.

Eventually, the neighborhood had enough and demanded her removal. It was discovered that she wasn't even a property owner there, and they contacted Clara, harassing her to get Missy out.

Clara didn't come herself but sent a manager with bodyguards to forcibly evict Missy as a representative of the property owner."

I couldn't help but think, Clara knew how Missy was, yet she still tolerated being with Lawrence.

Clara didn't seem like someone who would be blinded by love.

Vance concluded, "In the end, Lawrence had no choice but to arrange for Missy to live in a single room in a rundown area on the outskirts of town. The conditions were worse than many rural places, and Missy was unwilling, crying and cursing Lawrence for being ungrateful after she had raised him for so many years.

Lawrence lost his patience and threatened to send her back to the countryside if she continued to cause trouble, and she wouldn't get much money from him. After all, his wealthy relationship with Clara was almost ruined by Missy."

"Is it easy to arrange for someone to keep an eye on them where they live now?"

I suddenly thought of a plan and couldn't help but ask.

Vance nodded, "It's easy to find someone, and arranging surveillance is particularly convenient now."

He stopped mid-sentence, looking at me suspiciously, "You don't have other ideas, do you?"

Clearly, if it was about investigation and arranging personnel, I usually wouldn't be concerned.

I had to admire Vance's sharpness. It seemed that being a detective wasn't something just anyone could do; it required talent.

"Is it easy to arrange a kidnapping?" I asked with a smile.
