Upon hearing the news, a few police officers couldn’t help but feel a surge of excitement.
After all, residents of Thompson First were known for their significant financial strength. When they mentioned their “hard-earned money,” it likely referred to a staggering sum.
Considering that individuals who could easily afford vis worth over one hundred million would see three to five million as trivial, thirty-five million might barely raise an eyebrow.
However, given the distressed demeanor of this Lady, it seemed the amount in question exceeded thirty-five million!
This could potentially be a serious case of theft!<h3 style="background-color:DodgerBlue">
Quickly, several officers made their way inside and approached Vivian Siu, asking, “When did the theft ur? How much property has been taken?”
Feeling a bit embarrassed, Wendy replied, “Um… Please head to the second floor and speak with my grandmother. The lost money belongs to her, and she knows the details best.”
“Understood!”
The officers hurried upstairs, guided by Wendy to her grandmother’s bedroom on the second floor.
Upon entering, they were a bit surprised to see an elderly man and a young man sleeping in the room. However, they quickly moved to the terrace to address Mrs. Wilson: “Ma’am, did you lose any belongings?”
“Yes! That’s right!” Lady Wilson eximed, her voice filled with indignation. “A woman named Hannah stole my hard-earned money and ran off! You have to catch her!”<fna852> Fresh chapters posted on find·novel</fna852>
The police officer nodded and pulled out his special police PDA, asking, “Do you have any specific details about Hannah? Information such as where she’s from, her age, or an ID number would be very helpful. This way, we can pinpoint her location and initiate the arrest process.”
“ID number?” Lady Wilson pondered for a moment before turning to Wendy. “Do you know your mother’s ID number?”
Wendy responded awkwardly, “I… I can only recall part of it, not the whole thing…”
Lady Wilson urged, “Go find your father’s marriage certificate with her! It should have her ID number on it!”
Wendy nodded, “Alright, Grandmother, I’ll look for it…”
The officers exchanged looks, and the lead officer inquired, “Ma’am, what is the rtionship between you and this Hannah who took your money?”
Lady Wilson clenched her teeth and replied, “That scoundrel is my eldest daughter-inw! I’ve kept a close watch on her, yet I never imagined that a thief could be so close to home!”
The lead officer responded cautiously, “If she’s a family member, you might want to think carefully about pursuing legal action. Theft is a serious crime.”
After a brief pause, he added, “If you genuinely want to press charges, once we file a case, it will be turned over to the prosecutor’s office for public prosecution. If convicted of a felony, she could face several years in prison, possibly over ten. You and your daughter-inw are family; is it really worth it to go to such extremes?”
Lady Wilson scoffed, “Really? I’m not just serious; I’m dead serious! I want you to catch her and send her to prison for life! How dare she steal my money? How dare she! I’ll show her that this old woman won’t be bullied!”
Seeing her determination, the lead officer ceased his attempts at persuasion and confirmed, “Since you’re iming that your property has been stolen, we’ll proceed with the theft investigation.”
Lady Wilson nodded fervently, “Yes, yes! Follow through with the investigation and catch her! Sentencing her is a must!”
The lead officer asked once more, “Ma’am, how much property did you lose in this incident? This includes cash, debts, or any valuable personal items.”
The elderly woman eximed, “She took my entire two hundred dors! That’s all my hard-earned money!”
The police officer, taken aback, asked in disbelief, “How much… did you say? Two hundred?!”
