Chapter 375: Arrest

Apart from Tina, Jared, and Logan, everyone in the Reed family was stunned into silence by Annabelle's words. They never imagined that the usually gentle and kind Annabelle would have such a dark heart. Was she really capable of killing out of jealousy? And killing ten people at that.

Muff was trembling with rage, shouting, "You! You wicked woman! Sydney always considered you a good friend, and this is how you treat her?"

"Who wants to be her friend?" Annabelle's face twisted as she spoke. "I only befriended her to watch her fall from grace. Unfortunately..." She glanced at Logan and sneered, "Logan loved her too much. No matter how I schemed, he always believed in her. Even when I drugged her, Logan never suspected her of cheating!"

She turned back to Muff. "See? That's something you'll never match. Now you know why she chose Logan over you. If it were you, you'd never believe her after seeing those things." "That's nonsense!" Muff growled. "Sydney is perfect in my eyes. No matter what she does, I believe in her."

"Ha!" Annabelle felt a pang in her heart. "I've spent most of my life working hard for this family, but your heart was never with me. Even now, you're praising Sydney. But what good does it do?" She laughed wickedly. "She's dead! I burned her to death! Not only did she die, but her friends died because of her too! Ha ha!"

Suddenly, she started laughing maniacally. "You came to settle scores with me today? What for? The evidence you've provided can't prove I killed them. Even if you know it was me, you can't do anything about it. Muff, you hate me so what? You still have to face me every day!"

"You!" Muff was furious and raised his hand to hit Annabelle, but she grabbed his hand tightly before he could strike. "You still want to hit me? Do you think I'm defenseless? Let me tell you, Muff, if it weren't for my love for you, you'd be dead ten times over for what you've done to me!"

With that, she flung Muff to the ground harshly.

Damian was close by and quickly helped the old man up.

Muff stood up, looking at Annabelle in shock. "You know martial arts?"

Ridiculous! He prided himself on being smart but never noticed she knew martial arts. She had disguised herself well all these years!
