"My husband passed away early. I raised my child. He had a high fever, and we had no money to treat it, so he became mentally impaired. I have suffered enough. How can people still bully us?"
Before the police, Adeline indeed portrayed herself as a selfless, helpless mother and deliberately concealed the fact that Nathan was a rapist.
Finally, I couldn't hold back and called the police station. Since I couldn't reveal my identity, I could only testify via phone. "I am their neighbor. First, I can confirm that Alice and Ian acted in self-defense. Adeline and Aaron are lying, and there's an electronic peephole at my door that recorded everything clearly."
Fearing that Adeline and Aaron might find our home again, I had bought an electronic peephole and had my dad install it. I didn't expect it to come in handy now.
"Moreover, her husband is not dead. He is in prison. You can check if you don't believe me."
Because of my testimony and the recordings, the neighbors were cleared of suspicion. Seeing Adeline and Aaron's arrogant remarks on the peephole footage, I believed anyone would want to slap them.
