Chapter: 915

The old lady was terrified, still insisting stubbornly, "It's impossible, they'll never find it, I hid things very carefully, no one else will ever be able to find it except me!"

Just then, the person in charge walked out from inside and directly approached the old lady, saying coldly, "Hello, we have found a secret compartment in the basement of this villa. Inside, there are ancient artifacts and precious metals..."

As soon as he said that, the old lady who had just been helped up to her feet sat back down on the ground, her face filled with despair.

The person in charge continued, "Since this villa is under your name, we acknowledge that everything in the secret compartment belongs to you. Therefore, we will seize these artifacts and precious metals by law. When the court auction happens in the future, they will be publicly auctioned off, and the proceeds will go towards settling your debt."

"If the total auction amount exceeds your total debt, then after paying off the debt, any remaining funds will be returned to you. If the total auction amount is less than your total debt, the creditor has the right to continue with a lawsuit against you!"

He finished speaking and took out a form, saying to the old lady, "If you understand what I just said, please put your signature here."

"I won't sign!" The old lady shouted hysterically, "You don't have the right to seize my antiques! Those are my own property!"

The person in charge spoke coldly, "Sorry, according to the law, these artifacts have already been seized. Even if you refuse to sign, it won't change any established facts."

He finished speaking and turned around to head back into the villa.

Xiao Laotai's face turned black, and she fainted instantly...

As soon as Xiao Laotai fainted, Xio Changqian rushed over and grasped her cloak with great force, shaking her violently!

Just as Xiao Laotai had fainted again, she was shaken awake by great force. She opened her eyes to find Xio Changqian scolding her furiously: "You said no one would be able to find those antiques except for you! Now all these antiques are gone! All gone!!! What will we do as a family?"

Xiao Laotai's heart was in agony, and she wailed uncontrollably, saying: "I never thought it would turn out like this. If I had known it would be like this, I wouldn't have kept them at home..."

As she said this, Xiao Laotai's tears fell continuously: "It's over this time. Everything is over... My entire life's worth of effort has all been in vain..."

Xiao Hailong was also hopeless, crying and saying: "Now nothing is left. Not even tonight's dinner... We won't have any dinner to eat tonight. And what about sleeping? Can we just sleep on the street?"

Xiao Weiwei heard this and broke down, sobbing uncontrollably: "Are we going to become vagrants on the streets? I don't want that!"

At this moment, the staff had already started moving out all the things from inside the house.

The old lady was watching her antique treasures being sealed away, crying loudly in the courtyard and trying to rush over several times to grab them, but was restrained by the officials each time.

Xiao Changqian's face grew angrier and angrier, so angry that he wanted to kick Xiao Laotai right then and there - this old lady is just too selfish! She's reached an extreme level of selfishness!

Even her selfishness didn't bring about any good results; these things are now all confiscated, with no doubt that they'll never be returned.

Valuable items were all moved out, including the family's worthless clothes and broken furniture, which were carried away and piled up outside on the street.

When everything was almost moved out, a court official came to the front door of the villa and posted a seal, saying to Xiao family's four people: "We're going to seal off the big gate outside as well. Please cooperate by moving outside; you've already been prohibited from entering this place."

"I won't leave! This is my home, why should I leave?"

Xiao Laotai's eyes were red and puffy from crying, her hair disheveled in a way that looked like something straight out of Jin Yong's novels - that old lady who had been stuck in the well for decades, only able to spit out seeds!

The official said: "This has already been sealed off; it's clear that this place is no longer your home. If you continue to stay here, you'll be obstructing public business! We have the right to detain you!" JrNovels.com
