"Mom, you should have been more careful. Why did you let just anyone in?" The younger woman held up her phone and began filming me with her brows furrowed. "There are a lot of mental people nowadays. If she breaks anything in our house or causes any trouble, there's nothing we can do."
After listening to those words, the elder lady pointed at me with a broom and threatened, "Get the hell out of here or I'll beat you up!"
With that said, she swung the broom in her hand.
I knew they wouldn't believe anything I said at that moment.
I had all the evidence I needed anyway. I planned on leaving, calling the police, and accusing them of trespassing on my property.
However, just when I reached the door, something hit the back of my head.
The elder lady's voice could be heard. "She's indeed mental. Since you want to have it the hard way, this is what you get for disturbing us. If you don't leave now, then I..."
I became infuriated, turned around, took the broom, and swung it at the elder lady's head. "You must have a death wish! How dare you hit me after forcibly occupying my house?"
'No wonder you're Derek's in-laws! You're one of a kind!' I exclaimed inwardly.
I wasn't planning on arguing with them since they didn't know anything, but I wasn't going to let them off after hitting me.
The elder lady immediately fell to the ground. She covered her head, rolled around, and shouted, "She's trying to kill me! Quick, Shannon, call the police! Someone is trespassing and has attacked me!"
Shannon was filming and when she saw me fight back, she quickly dragged her mom into the bedroom and locked the door.
'Want to rip me off? Fine! Saves me calling the police!' I thought.
Soon, two police officers pushed open the door.
"Who called the police?"
"It was me, officer!"
After hearing the voice of the police, Shannon quickly opened the door and pointed at me. "I was the one who called the police! This woman charged into my house for no reason and began filming me! She even hit my mom!"
The elder lady walked out with her head covered as she moaned in pain. "That's right, officer. Seize this woman immediately! She has to pay for my medical fees and compensate my daughter!"
The police officers gave me a suspicious look.
Shannon handed her phone to the police. "I filmed it when she hit my mom. Here's the evidence."
I was rendered speechless.
"Officers, I wanted to call the police as well. They trespassed into my house, caused financial damage, and wanted to rip me off."
The elder lady rushed over and spat on my face angrily. "Nonsense! This is the wedding house that my son-in-law bought!"
I immediately retorted, "This is my house, you fool! Your son-in-law picked the lock and lied to you saying that this is his house!"
Seeing that the two of us were telling two different stories, the police took us both back to the police station.
Inside the police station, I showed them photos of my deed, purchase certificate, and the renovation plan.
Even though the evidence was in front of her, Shannon and the elder lady still didn't believe me. They still pointed at me and said that I was lying and that the photos were Photoshopped. They still claimed that the house was theirs.
An officer wanted to calm the elder lady down but was pushed aside. She pointed at the officer and cursed, "Do you think I'm stupid? You're on the same team! You're a bunch of swindlers working together and want to take the house from us! I won't sign anything before my son-in-law arrives. Just you want!"
The elder lady's stupidity caused the officer recording the statement to roll his eyes.
