Chapter 565: Annabelle Dies in a Car Accident

Lisa was floored and got up to follow, curiosity piqued.

"Daniel, what the heck is going on?" Lisa asked, totally confused.

He didn't bother explaining; he kicked open the warehouse door and strolled in.

Lisa peeked inside and gasped, covering her mouth.

Annabelle had never left; she was chained up in the warehouse?

"This is nuts!" Lisa exclaimed, wide-eyed.

Daniel frowned, taking his sweet time before speaking. "Annabelle, come with me."

Annabelle was curled up in the corner, scared out of her wits, not her usual cocky self.

Lisa took a minute to snap out of her daze. "Did Mom do this? Is she out of her mind? This is so illegal!"

Daniel shot Lisa a complicated look while he rummaged around for the key to Annabelle's chains.

But no luck finding it.

"The key's with your mom," Annabelle whispered.

Daniel went silent and looked at Lisa.

Lisa rubbed her temples. "I'll go get the key from Mom."

This was beyond crazy.

Annabelle glared coldly at Lisa and Daniel. It seemed Howard already knew Claire had gone to get the documents.

"I'll just use an axe," Daniel said, grabbing one from a nearby shelf and smashing the chains.

Annabelle nervously followed Daniel and Lisa out.

Howard was chilling in the living room and glanced at Annabelle. "Where are the documents?"

Annabelle looked terrified. "Didn't I tell Claire to go get them?"

Howard snorted. "Figures."
