Chapter 590 Cedrick Has His Suspicions

“Annie kicked over the fuel tank earlier and wanted to set it on fire to perish with me. Thankfully, I managed to stop her in time,” Gwendolyn explained before nodding toward the lighter dropped outside the cage. “There. That’s what she was about to use.”

Asher, too, was grim–faced as he glowered at Paul. “What are you waiting for? Open the cage now,” he ordered, his voice hoarse but authoritative.
