Chapter 877
Ruth’s urgent voice quickly came through when the call connected.
“Dustin! Bad news! My sister is in trouble!”
“Trouble?” Dustin furrowed his brows.
“What happened?”
“The family treasury has been robbed. My sister is the prime suspect.
“They’re going to use the housew on her!” Ruth eximed in panic.
“Try your best to hold them up. I’ll be there as soon as I can!”
Without a moment to spare, Dustin hung up and swiftly headed to the Harmons‘ residence. with Corneli
us.
Meanwhile, inside the Harmon’s ancestral altar, a group of people blocked Natasha at the entrance. Sh
e was trapped with nowhere to go.
The elders of the family were angry and filled with righteous indignation. They scolded her nonstop.
“Natasha! How dare you conspire with outsiders to steal from the family treasury. You are truly an ungr
ateful daughter!”
“You have ruined our hundred–year–old legacy! How do you think you should be punished?”
“You bitch! How could the Harmons have raised such an ungrateful brat like you?”
The group kept pointing fingers and criticizing Natasha. Amidst the
anger, there were also strong feelings of resentment.
“I’ve exined many times. I did not steal from the treasury or conspire with outsiders.
“I have no idea what is going on!” Natasha frowned, her expression grim.
She had justid down to rest not long ago. But a group of family elders suddenly barged into her room
without a word and brought her to the ancestral hall to be locked up.
For some reason, they used her of theft and forced her to confess.
“You have no idea? What a joke!”
Dn stepped up and said coldly, “Everyone knows there are only
two keys to the treasury. One is with you, and the other is with Uncle Hector.
“With Uncle Hector not around, you are the only one who can ess the treasury. That means
you’re the one behind this theft!”
“Exactly! The key is with you, and now the treasury has been robbed. It must be you!” Kate added.
“Natasha! The family has always treated you well. Why would you do this?” Trent eximed.
“Uncle Trent, it wasn’t me. I didn’t do anything!” Natasha shook her head.
“If it wasn’t you, was it Uncle Hector?” Dn sneered.
“My father and I would never do anything to harm the family. This must be a misunderstanding.” Natash
a’s brows furrowed deeply.
“Natasha Harmon! Stop denying!
“If you confess and return the stolen treasures, there might be a chance to resolve this. But if you insist
on being stubborn, we must enforce the housew!” Dn threatened.
“Uncle Jacob, if someone steals while being the guardian and destroys the family’s legacy, how do we
deal with them ording to the housew?” Kate asked sarcastically.

Jacob answered with a grim expression, “Gouge out their eyes, cut off their tongue, and break off their l
imbs.”
The crowds‘ expressions shifted when they heard that. If they truly enforced the housew, Natasha wo
uldn’t survive.
“I haven’t done anything wrong! Who dares enforce the housew on me?” Natasha yelled.
Her gaze hardened as she stared at the crowd without fear.
“Natasha, I’m giving you onest chance. Hand over the treasures, and I can pretend that nothing happ
ened.
“Otherwise, you’ll have to face the consequences!” Trent looked serious.
“Uncle Trent, I’ve been set up! Please don’t fall for it!” Natasha reasoned.
“Still denying? You really need to be taught a lesson!!”
Dn didn’t bother wasting his breath further andmanded, “Guards! Enforce the house.w on her
!”
As soon as he spoke, several muscr men approached Natasha with sharp gazes.
“Stop!”
Just then, Hector suddenly rushed in and shouted angrily, “What are all of you doing? Attempting a reb
ellion?”
“Uncle Hector, you came right on time.” The corner of Dn’s lips curved up into a smile.
“Natasha conspired with outsiders to steal from the family treasury. As the family head, you should enfo
rce the housew personally.” His words carried a hidden meaning.
While speaking, he took out a knife and ced it in Hector’s hands.
He clearly wanted the father and daughter duo to go against each other.
