The Day I Returned Home and Found My Mother in a Dog Cage

After three years abroad, I finally completed my top-secret mission and returned to my homeland.

With official approval, I came back full of anticipation, eager to see my husband and my mother. But when I arrived, the sight that greeted me made my blood run cold—my mother was crouched inside a cramped, doghouse-like structure at the entrance of our home.

Before her was a basin and my mother was lying on the ground like a dog, eating the rotten, foul-smelling food inside.

A woman stood there, laughing as she watched my mother.

“If you want to blame someone, blame your dead daughter. She died young, leaving you alone to suffer here!”

“I’m telling you, you must eat this dog food today.”

Saying this, she slapped my mother across the face.

My mother looked at the woman timidly, lowered her head and quickly swallowed the food that emitted a foul odor.

In a fit of emotion, I stepped forward and kicked the woman away with one foot.

Then, I pulled my mother up. At that moment, my face was covered in tears.

I never imagined that after risking my life for the country, my mother would be locked in a doghouse eating moldy, rotten food.

She was being treated like a dog, being toyed with at will.

——

My mother looked at me, but her cloudy eyes could no longer recognize me. She lowered her head and said, “Child, leave quickly! You hit Jared Harbour's secretary; she won't let you off!”

“Jared's secretary? How dare he treat you like this?”

I was filled with rage, looking at my mother and asking.

My mother lowered her head and said, “Hurry up and leave! Otherwise, they won't let you go!”

“I know you mean well, but... your kindness is useless. Since my daughter went missing, she's been tormenting me. If I weren't waiting for my daughter to come back, I would have ended my life long ago!”

My mother’s words nearly drove me mad. I had thought that by going abroad on a top-secret mission and entrusting others to take care of my family, my mother would be able to live out her days in peace. But I never imagined that after I left, she would suffer such torment.

At that moment, my face was filled with anger.

The woman finally scrambled to her feet, her face twisted with fury, glaring at me and snarling, “You’re dead! "

“In the capital, you dare to touch me!”

“Do you know that in the capital, our boss is like a god?”

“If you dare to provoke me, I'll make sure you pay for it!”

She glared at me with an arrogant attitude, but at that moment, I sneered and directly dialed the phone in my hand, calling Jared.

“Hello? Who are you?”

On the other end of the line, Jared's voice sounded almost indifferent.

“Jared, I hear that in the capital, you're the boss?” I spoke coldly.

Upon hearing my words, Jared fell silent for a moment before saying, “I don't know who you are, but if you're calling to provoke me, I'll find you. From now on, no one can save you!”

Hearing Jared’s voice on the other end of the line, my face turned icy.

It had only been three years, yet he couldn’t even recognize my voice and he hadn’t even saved my number.

At that moment, I completely lost patience with Jared.

“Jared, I’m at your house right now! I’m giving you half an hour to come back immediately!” I said coldly.

On the other end of the line, Jared froze for a moment, then I heard his urgent voice!

“You're at my house? What did you do to Mary Leonni?”

“Stay there and wait. I'll tell you this, if anything happens to Mary, I won't let you off the hook!”
