Chapter 47

The policeman rolled his eyes at them and announced, “We have received a phone call from the police
chief himself asking us to arrest Inspector Murphy for investigation!”

“On top of that, both of you have to stay back tonight.” He pointed at Abby and Tom. Both of their
expressions turned grave after the announcement.

“Why do we have to stay back? We have not done anything wrong!” Abby shouted like an uncultured
swine.

“You’ve caused trouble and tried to occupy other people’s property illegally. Don’t you think these
offenses are enough to get you arrested?” The policeman pointed out their crimes one by one. “You’ll
easily be jailed for two years because of this!”

Tom’s face was as pale as a sheet, and he stared at Amelie with disbelief. He couldn’t believe that she
could, get the police chief involved with just a phone call and, at the same time, get rid of Inspector
Murphy that easily. How could that be… Didn’t she get divorced without taking a cent from the Alston
Family? I thought she didn’t have anyone from her family who could back her? Since Tom was born
and raised there, he was aware that Steven only moved and stayed there later on. Although Tom had
been living there for a decade or so, he didn’t have any relatives there.

Without wasting any more time, the policeman waved, signaling his men to handcuff Tom. Seeing that,
Abby tried to escape but was dragged back. Soon, three of them were taken away by the men that
were sent over by the police chief.

After that, the officer went over to Amelie and Steven before apologizing to them. “Although I know that
both of you were innocent earlier on, Inspector Murphy… Sigh, I’m sure both of you know what it’s like
to work in the countryside.”



“We understand.” Amelie didn’t fuss about it, as she knew the situation the policeman was in. With that,
the police officers politely sent both of them out. He then personally went to the unit and made
everyone from the Wilson Family vacate the property on the same night.

Since Abby and Tom had been brought away, only Tom’s wife and son were left there. As they moved
out, she couldn’t stop sobbing and cursed at Abby and Tom. By then, Amelie and Steven had walked
out together.

“Luckily, Julia helped us out this time. If not for her, we would have been bullied. Sigh, I’m sorry for
being at useless father and making you go through all these.” Steven was looking down the whole time
as he was in a lousy mood for not being able to protect his daughter. Steven had always been a
reserved man, and Amelie could tell how much he was blaming himself for what he said.

“Dad, I’m already an adult, and I’m capable of protecting myself. Rather, you shouldn’t start waving a
knife at people under any circumstances. It’s terrifying.” She held her father’s hand. Amelie never
imagined him doing something like that since he had always been a docile man.

Hearing that, Steven looked down without saying a word. He had been feeling guilty recently and was
thinking about whether it was his spinelessness that had caused Amelie to suffer within the Alston
Family.

The next day, Abby and Tom were released. Both of them looked dispirited as not only did they not get
to take the house, they had gotten Inspector Murphy into trouble as well. Inspector Murphy wasn’t just
a stranger to them, but he was the husband of Abby’s niece. Her niece had gone over to look for her
since early morning. screaming and crying as she insisted that Abby find a way to get her husband out.
However, Abby didn’t have the capability to do so. In the end, she had to snarl at her niece to chase
her away.



Now that they had to move out of the house, the Wilson Family had to move back to their dilapidated
hut. Abby and Tom were lazy people, and while their neighbors had upgraded to bigger houses, they
were still poor. The family of four had to stay in a shabby one-bedroom hut. Since early morning,
Abby’s grandson, Timmy, had been crying as he refused to stay there because he was used to staying
in the Dillon Family’s big and spacious house.

Not only Timmy Tom’s wife, but Lucy also wasn’t in a good mood too. Soon, it started pouring outside
before rainwater seeped through the roof and formed puddles in the house. Lucy couldn’t stand it
anymore and left with her son as she scolded Tom. The frustrated Tom hit and kicked at the only few
pieces of furniture they

had until they fell apart and left after that.

In the end, Abby was left alone and sighed when she saw the situation they were in. She regretted that
if they had treated Amelie and her dad politely, they wouldn’t have gotten themselves into a pickle. But,
at the same time, she was blaming it on Amelie for snatching the house away from them when Amelie
didn’t really need the house. The wealthy are truly cold-blooded! The more she thought about it, the
more devastated she became, and tears started rolling down her cheeks.

It took her a while to recall that she had a daughter who was pretty well off. However, both of them
were on bad terms, and her daughter hadn’t visited in the last twenty years. Abby’s granddaughter, on
the other hand, used to stay with her for some time.

Ah! That’s right! I can contact her.

She got her address book out of her luggage. The phone numbers were scribbled using symbols that
only she could read. After a while, she managed to get the number and immediately made a call.

“Hello?” Soon, the call was answered, and a delightful voice was heard.



“Elyse, it’s me, Grandma.” Abby greeted.

“Mm.” Her answer was cold, as she was never close to Abby.

“Elyse, I have been bullied!” Abby started ranting, ignoring her granddaughter’s lukewarm reply.

What happened?” Elyse was rather surprised that someone like Abby would be bullied. With that, Abby
then told her what had happened.

“Grandma, you were trying to chase the house owners away when you had occupied their property.
Why would you feel wronged when they were just defending their legal rights?” Elyse finally made
sense of the situation after hearing that.

She knew what kind of person her grandmother was-a lazy and petty woman. She wasn’t surprised that
Abby would do something that shameless.

“I can’t help you with this.” Elyse stretched her fingers out and looked at her recently manicured nails.
She was already getting annoyed. If Abby weren’t her grandma, she would have hung up the call.

Abby was devastated when her own granddaughter lectured her and started sobbing. “Elyse, I’m old
now, and I don’t have a place to stay. Moreover, your mother doesn’t care about me anymore. I only did
that because had no other choice. It’s fine if you don’t pity me, but how could you say this to me?”

As she spoke, she had to pause to take a few breaths because she couldn’t stop crying. “These are all
because of Amelie, who got divorced without getting any alimony and even brought a liability with her.
Steven, who was staying alone, used to stay in a two-bedroom property, so we had been able to stay in
their house comfortably for the past few years. If she hadn’t come back, we could still continue staying
in it. Now that she’s back and broke, she has nowhere to stay, so she wants the house back. All I
wanted was for your uncle and cousin to have a better life.”



Although Elyse didn’t hang up the call, she wasn’t paying attention to Abby until she heard Amelie’s
name being mentioned. “Who’s name did you just say?” she asked surprisedly and thought that she
had heard wrongly.

“Steven Dillon and his daughter, Amelie Dillon,” Abby repeated.

I didn’t mishear it. “Which Amelie Dillon?” Elyse asked again.

“Who else could it be? She’s the one who used to sit in the courtyard and sing. She normally had two
big braids and a lovely voice. Didn’t you ask me for her name before?”

Many years ago, Elyse used to stay at Abby’s for some reason, but she couldn’t recall the things that
Abby

described to her She wasn’t sure whether it was the Amelie she knew of, but her heart started racing.

“I’ll consider whether to help you if you describe how she looks to me,” Elyse said.
