Chapter 18 How Could They
Chapter 18 How Could They
Living next door was a retired elderly couple who immediately came out when
they heard the commotion. They also witnessed the terrifying scene where
someone came to vandalize in the afternoon, leaving them too scared to come
out again. This girl had grown up under their watchful eyes; she was well-
behaved and sensible, and they couldn’t understand how she had provoked such
individuals.
Genevieve hobbled over, her face filled with worry, and said, “Child, those people
are wicked and not good people. Be careful, they might come to bother you
again. Why don’t you come and stay at my house for a
while?”
Harold excitedly tapped his cane and echoed Genevieve’s words, “Yes, it’s just
the two of us at home. Come and stay with us; we have a spare room for you.”
Listening to the words of the two elderly people, Angela felt a warm feeling in her
heart. Angela smiled and comforted the old couple, “Genevieve, if they can do it
once, they can do it twice. Hiding at your place is not a solution.”
Genevieve looked at her and said. “Then…”
“I will call the police.” Angela shook her phone. “Leave this kind of thing to the
professionals.”
Genevieve suddenly realized and nodded repeatedly, “Yes, yes, you’re right. We
should call the police quickly and apprehend those wrongdoers!”
Harold understood and took a few steps back with his wife. He said to Angela,
“Angela, don’t be afraid, go ahead and call the police! We were all there this
afternoon; the scene is intact, and no one has entered again. When the police
come, we’ll testify for you! Trespassing and vandalizing like this can not only
result in imprisonment but also make them pay for the damages. Harold was a
retired soldier; although he was old, he still had a sharp mind and remembered
this legal knowledge. He fully supported the girl’s actions.
Thank you, Harold.” Angela smiled sweetly,
Then she took out her phone and called 911 to file a report.
After the call was connected, a sweet female voice came through. “Hello, 911.
How can I assist you?”
“Hello, I want to report a crime. Someone trespassed into a private residence
near the military zone’s Northcity Avenue…”
Angela provided detailed information and hung up the phone. She instinctively
wanted to take a photo, but as she looked at the darkened screen, she sighed
helplessly.
Half an hour later, two police officers arrived and took photos from various angles
with a camera before going to the security room to check the surveillance
footage. Fortunately, even though it wasn’t as advanced as a decade later,
surveillance equipment had gradually become more common during this era.
Surveillance cameras had been installed two years ago, especially at the main
entrance and the entrance to
the unit.
When they retrieved the surveillance footage in the security room, Angela saw
Samuel carrying a bucket of paint appearing in the frame. Although she had
already guessed it, seeing it with her own eyes still made her feel disgusted. She
clenched her fists tightly. I’ll make him pay.

With the surveillance records and eyewitnesses, the police could easily gather
evidence. It was basically undeniable. Following the procedure, after taking the
statement, the police noted Angela’s phone number and told her to wait at home
for updates, cautioning her not to wander around these days. Then, they left.
After the police left, Angela started cleaning up the room. Harold and Genevieve
also came to help. The walls had been splattered with red paint, which looked so
glaring.
As the two elderly people cleaned up, they sighed. How much hatred must there
be to destroy a home like
this?
After tidying up the room, Angela moved the useless items downstairs. It seemed
that misfortunes never come singly, many things needed to be replaced.
However, this time, she wasn’t afraid at all. She wouldn’t foolishly endure it
anymore. Not only did she want to give those people a profound lesson, but she
also wanted to make them pay for their actions.
“Miss Kins, what happened to you? Why…?” Suddenly, someone behind her
spoke not too far away.
Angela turned around, surprised to see Sebastian holding a large plastic bag, his
gaze fixed on the broken items in her hands, wearing a puzzled expression.
Biting her lip slightly. Angela disposed of the items in the trash can before calmly
explaining, “It’s nothing. just a burglary. Some things got damaged.”
Sebastian was taken aback. “A burglary? Are you alright? Do you need any
assistance? Master Jonathan has an extensive network of connections. We can
inform the police.”
