Rebirth Reclaiming Her Self

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.”
I’m fine, Sebastian. I’ve already reported it to the police!” Angela quickly interjected, feeling curious about why Sebastian was
there so late. With this thought in mind, Angela asked him.
Sebastian appeared surprised and smiled. “You didn’t know? We live nearby, just a little further ahead. Master Jonathan lives
alone here and occasionally visits the Sanderses.”
Angela was somewhat taken aback. She truly had no idea. It turned out that Jonathan was living alone near her grandmother’s
house.
Sebastian had to rush back after going out to buy things. Once he ensured Angela was alright, he departed. Upon arriving home,
Sebastian placed the items he purchased in the refrigerator, organized them, and discussed Angela. “I just came back from
shopping and bumped into that young girl from the Kins Family. It’s truly heartbreaking to see her living alone at such a tender
age. Her house was robbed this afternoon. and I witnessed her holding a bunch of broken things. These despicable individuals
didn’t even spare a young girl. However, she displayed remarkable bravery. Despite the situation, she didn’t shed a tear and
calmly contacted the police.”
On the living room couch, Jonathan propped his head up with one hand and slowly opened his eyes.
