The Wood Family situation was a mess, and Ellen Young had also received news of it.
David Wood suddenly fell into a coma. Daniel Wood tried every possible means to contact her, but unfortunately, Clinton White and Ruffy Smith both blocked him. A small family like the Woods really couldn't make much of a wave.
Daniel had considered mutual destruction; this matter could have been easily resolved if Ellen had an accident.
He wanted to expose Ellen's heartlessness to the media. However, when he finally got in touch with the media, it wasn't their people who contacted him back—he received a warning from higher up, which scared him enough to stop him in his tracks.
Of course, Ellen was aware of Edward's progress, not through what Damien and his people said, but through a phone call Lucy received from the beaten Daisy Wood.
