Chapter 36

Frederick didn’t move right away. He strode over to Sadie, his tone icy. “Call her again, and put it on speaker.”

“Okay!”

Sadie immediately dialed Marguerite’s number. After a brief pause, the call started ringing.

The call actually went through!

Sadie looked at Frederick, puzzled, only to see his worried expression suddenly gloomy.

“This…” Sadie seemed a bit nervous.

“Didn’t the call get through? Don’t make a mountain out of a molehill.” He turned away, his face cold. “Get out.”

Sadie looked at her phone screen, then at Frederick, and left with apprehension.

“How could this happen? It was out of service just now, how could it suddenly get through…”

Sadie muttered under her breath, but Frederick didn’t care.

He was convinced that Marguerite was just throwing a fit and refusing to come home. Little did he know what she was going through right now.

After being shoved into a bag, Marguerite was driven by Ablett to Marina Shores Village and dumped in a warehouse there.

The warehouse was not far from the house that had been burnt down, only about a three–minute walk.

He found a local mad beggar to watch Marguerite, and paid him a hefty sum.

Ablett had already planned that once Marguerite died, even if the police got involved, they wouldn’t be able to trace it back to him

After all, who would believe the babblings of a madman?

After Ablett left, Marguerite gradually regained some consciousness.
