Chapter 376: Shot Dead on the Spot

Annabelle had not fought in years, but her skills were still sharp. The law enforcement officers from the Criminal Investigation Team had guns, but they couldn't shoot without orders, so they had to try to catch Annabelle bare-handed.

Annabelle moved swiftly and every move was lethal, but without a weapon, she lacked killing power. She just wanted to find an opportunity to escape. Even if she died, she didn't want to pay for Sydney's death.

Jared and Tina watched Annabelle struggle with the officers with cold expressions. After a while, Jared glanced at Nathan Lehman. Nathan Lehman understood and pulled out his gun from his back waist, aiming at Annabelle. "Bang!" A single shot pierced through Annabelle's temple. She fell to the ground, looking at Nathan Lehman in disbelief. "How could you?"

Nathan Lehman coldly put away his gun, his voice even colder than his face. "Annabelle has been on the run for twenty years after committing murder, resisted arrest, and injured law enforcement officers. To protect the lives of the public, she has been shot dead on the spot!"

"Ah!!" The Reed family was shocked by this scene. No matter how powerful the Reed family was, they had never seen someone get shot dead in front of them. And the person who was killed was the matriarch of the Reed family. Juliet and others screamed and gathered around. Garrett and Luna were completely dumbfounded. They couldn't believe that a person who was alive just moments ago had died right in front of them, especially their own mother. Looking at Annabelle's cold body on the ground made their legs tremble.

"Outrageous!" Jasper suddenly roared in anger. "You dare commit murder in my Reed family? Kill my mother? Do you think I'm just a figurehead?"

Garrett also came to his senses and immediately rebuked, "This is too much! Even if my mom is guilty, there's still the law! You openly shot her and deprived her of her life; I will accuse you of abusing your power!" Although he believed Annabelle deserved legal punishment for killing ten people, she was still his mother. Being shot dead by Nathan Lehman without even a chance to defend herself was simply too cruel! "Guards!" Jasper shouted angrily. "Surround the Reed family! No one is allowed to leave today! I want to see who has such authority to get away with killing my mother!"

Jasper then took out his phone and dialed a hotline to report the incident. Just as he made the call, all the law enforcement officers from the Criminal Investigation Team fell to the ground in pain. His hand froze mid-air. He turned angrily towards Tina. He saw clearly that those officers were fine just moments ago; it was some silver needles from Tina's hand that caused them to collapse! If he guessed correctly, doctors would soon arrive. Sure enough! Two minutes later, several doctors and nurses in white coats rushed in to check on them. Soon they concluded, "Multiple fractures and severe internal injuries in their abdomens."

The lead doctor stood up and asked sternly, "Who attacked these law enforcement officers?"

Jasper gritted his teeth. "Watch your words!"
