Here’s a shortened and clearer version of your story in English, keeping the core plot and emotions intact while trimming the length: After losing her husband 15 years ago, a 62-year-old woman was adjusting to life alone. Her only son had cut contact two decades ago and moved overseas. Recently, strange things began happening in her house—furniture and personal items moved mysteriously. Initially dismissing it as forgetfulness, she grew alarmed and began taking nightly photos of her home. The next mornings, things had clearly moved. Determined to uncover the truth,

she installed security cameras. For days, nothing showed up—until one night, she saw a masked figure dressed in black quietly moving through her home, rearranging furniture and rifling through belongings. Terrified, she called the police, who advised her to stay alert and keep her home secure. The next day, she pretended to leave but watched her cameras from a nearby café. Hours later, the intruder returned. She called the police again,who arrived just in time to catch the figure fleeing through the backyard. They tackled him—and when they unmasked him, she was devastated to see it was her estranged son. He screamed that the house was his, claiming she had abandoned him and owed him. His plan had been to make her appear mentally unstable so he could take control of her estate, sell the house,
and access her accounts. Heartbroken, she realized he had returned not out of love, but out of greed. She paid off his debts to end the ordeal, dropped charges, but secured a restraining order. In a final call, she told him, “You’re no longer my son. Your father would be ashamed.” Hanging up, she felt a deeper loss than ever before—one that even the death of her husband hadn’t prepared her for.
