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.
