"But you repaid my kindness with enmity.Not only did you try to kill me,but you also wanted to ruin my daughter's life!"
"I've already informed the lawyers.They will liquidate all your assets.As for your son and daughter...One maliciously slandered others,and the other sold our family's cruise ship worth 800 million dollars.I believe the law will judge their crimes clearly."
Michael stood there,clenching his fists tightly."It's all your fault,woman!If you weren't so overbearing,I wouldn't have ended up like this!"
My mother looked at Michael coldly,her tone colder than ever."Michael Miller,you knew very well that marrying me was a step up for you,but now you're complaining that I'm too strong.It's disgusting to be a man like you."
Looking at the handcuffs in front of him,Michael finally broke down.He suddenly grabbed my mother's hand."Honey,I was just temporarily blinded by greed.It was all that damned woman,Lisa Johnson,who led me astray!"
"Yes,she instigated everything.I never wanted to do anything to betray you,honey!"
My mother glanced coldly at the crying Michael and then looked at the police."Since he's confessed,I'll trouble you,officers."
Immediately,two police officers stepped forward and drove the police car to the villa to arrest Emily's mother,Lisa Johnson.
Here,as the three of them were handcuffed and taken away in the police car,the onlookers burst into cheers."Goodness!When I first came here out of curiosity,I never imagined that the Miller family's affairs were so complicated and bizarre."
"Michael and Ryan are so disgusting.They lived off the Miller family while trying to kill them."
"Luckily,Amanda is smart.Otherwise,she would have been so slandered that she'd have nowhere to turn..."
I shook my head helplessly and helped my grandmother and mother back to the villa.Only now did my mother finally let down her strong facade.She looked at me with tear-filled eyes."Amanda,it's all my fault for misjudging people.I made you suffer."
Looking at my mother so close,the tears from my past and present lives welled up together.I hugged her tightly."Mom,I missed you so much."
Michael,Ryan,and Emily shot themselves in the foot.They had brought in a large number of news media,but unexpectedly,they became the targets of public condemnation.Unfortunately,all three of them were in the police station and couldn't see the outside news for a while.
Influenced by public opinion,the three of them were quickly sentenced.Michael was sentenced to 20 years in prison for attempted murder.Emily was given a life sentence for stealing a huge amount of property.
Her mother,Lisa,had masterminded everything,but without conclusive evidence,she couldn't be sentenced.But it didn't matter.
A daughter's debt is paid by the mother.I've already contacted professional debt-collection agencies.Lisa Johnson would spend the rest of her life in reasonable harassment and intimidation.
Ryan was only sentenced for maliciously spreading rumors.His sentence wasn't very long,and he was soon released.But all the property that belonged to them had already been liquidated.
The former young master was now down and out on the streets.He came to the Miller mansion several times to beg for forgiveness,only to be driven away by the security guards.Later,I heard that he became a thief,getting in and out of the police station frequently and becoming a regular there.
That's probably for the best,so he can often visit his dear father and sister inside.
As for me,I got rid of the engagement,entered the university I liked,and finally welcomed a new beginning in my life.
