Her mother scolded her about “family loyalty,” while Tessa cried dramatically, insisting Olivia was “the only one who could save her.” But Olivia refused.
That house had cost her years of sacrifice. She wasn’t giving it up because her sister refused to grow up. The argument exploded.
She thought the worst had passed. She was wrong. Two nights later, police surrounded the house her parents believed she still lived in.
Her parents—and Tessa—had broken inside, attacking the living room with metal bats, shattering furniture and destroying everything in sight. More than $40,000 in damage. It was revenge.
But they didn’t know Olivia had sold the house four months earlier when she moved closer to her new job. When the police detained them, her mother shakily called Olivia, begging her to help. Olivia answered calmly, her voice steady.
“I’m sorry… but I’m not associated with that property anymore.”
Silence. All three of them froze. When the officers called her for verification, she confirmed that she no longer owned the home.
The actual owner, an engineer named Patrick Dawson, had already filed charges. He had arrived to find his living room wrecked, and his shock quickly turned into fury. Olivia provided a full statement, explaining she had been estranged from her family for years and had refused to sell her house to cover Tessa’s debt.
The officers exchanged looks—it was clear her parents hadn’t acted out of desperation, but entitlement. That night, Olivia sat in her apartment replaying everything—their demands, their threats, the destruction. The silence she once wished for felt heavier now, but it wasn’t loneliness.
The story doesn’t end here — it continues on the next page.
