Fell Into His Love Trap (Skylar and Tobias) novel Chapter 257

Eva urged, “I’ve made it so clear. Just call the police and let them take Aunt Miranda away. There must be some mistakes in the procedures causing her to be freed from custody. Once the police officers look into this matter, she’ll be taken back to where she was.”

Now that Eva had mentioned it clearly, she took out her phone and handed the task of reporting Miranda to her parents.

Sharon chickened out and elbowed Wesley. “She’s your sister, so you should report her.”

Looking at the numbers 999 on the phone screen, Wesley hesitated as he raised his hand and put it back down soon after. Miranda was his sister, and she had been taking care of him since they were young. Now that she was out of prison, he felt reluctant to send her back in.

His conscience wouldn’t let him take the phone while his heart was conflicted, but Miranda living in his house had brought them a lot of inconveniences. His house wasn’t that big to begin with and ever since Miranda stayed there, Sharon had been quarreling with him every day while their son was forced to stay at the school dorm.

Sharon glared at her husband and said, “You’re so useless. Just take the phone. How hard could it be?”

Eva added fuel to the fire. “Dad, you’re not betraying Aunt Miranda. You’re just carrying out your duties as a good citizen. She doesn’t seem like she suffered in the prison. We’re not reporting her. Instead, we’re helping her to find a better place.”

Listening to Eva’s words, Wesley finally mustered the courage and took the phone. However, he gave the phone to Sharon after hesitating for a few minutes.

His wife was so furious that she scolded, “Coward!”

She took the phone and reported to the police, saying that an inmate escaped and came to their house, threatening their lives. Giving the address to the police officers, she urged them to come capture the inmate as soon as possible.

After reporting to the police, Sharon felt so relaxed that she started humming a tune.

Now, there won’t be any outsider in our house.

Ever since Miranda stayed with them, not only did she feel suffocated, she lost her appetite and even had trouble sleeping at night.
