CHAPTER 561 CONTACT NUMBER

"Only Anna and Sue were in the villa of course, and the acquaintances are..." Speaking of this, Joe suddenly understood something and looked at Henry i n shock, "Mr. Lancaster, you mean Sue? It was Sue who took Anna out and handed her to Theo's mother?"

Henry fumbled his fingers. "There's no other explanation except for this."

"But why?” Joe couldn't figure it out. "Why would Sue d o this?"

Henry said coldly, "I don't know the specific reason, but I’m sure Sue did it."

Otherwise, why didn't Anna have a stomachache earlier or later? Why was it right when Theo’s mother came to take her away?

Moreover, how did Theo's mother know that Anna would leave the villa if it wasn't for Sue's arrangement?

So all of these things pointed to the fact that Sue had made a contribution.

"It's Sue..." Joe swallowed his saliva and the incredulity in his eyes lingered. "Theo's mother actually bribed Sue. How could she do this? Mr. Lancaster, Sue would act against you right?" "No!" Henry shook his head with affirmation. "Sue has been working in the Lancaster family for almost 30 years. Even her family works for the Lancaster family, so she can't betray me.”

"But Sue..."

"There should be some other reason." Henry didn’t believe that Sue would betray him and the Lancaster family.

"What could be the reason that she chose to help Theo’s mother this time?" Joe felt confused.

Henry pursed his thin lips without answering. After a long time, he said, "Sue knows Theo's mother."

"Huh?" Joe was stunned. "Mr. Lancaster, are you sure?"

Henry said in a deep voice, "If they didn't know each other, Sue wouldn't help to take Anna out. It seems that Theo’s mother is a very important person to Sue."

Joe’s eyes flickered. "Then Mr. Lancaster, perhaps we can find out who Theo’s mother is from Sue."

Henry was silent for two seconds. "Send someone to monitor Sue for some time to see if she meets anyone secretly.”

"Okay, I'll arrange for that. As for Anna..." Content © 2024.

"Don't worry, Theo's mother said that she won't hurt Anna. She just wants to frighten her." Henry handed him the letter on the table.

Joe took it. After reading the letter, he understood.

It said that Anna's life wouldn't be harmed and Anna wouldn’t suffer any injuries. It was arranged just to frighten her so she could feel Theo's fear at that time.

At least this method was acceptable.

Joe looked at the bottom line of the letter and said, " Theo's mother also mentioned that we should be at the police station by two o’clock in the afternoon to bring Anna back."

Henry waved his hand. "You can arrange that."

"Okay, I’ll send someone to the police station to pick her up." Joe nodded, folded the letter, then prepared to return it to him.

But right when Joe folded the letter again and turned over to the back of the letter, he suddenly yelped.

"What is it?" Henry heard the surprise in his voice.

Joe quickly unfolded the letter and turned it over to the back. "Mr. Lancaster, there’s a phone number here."

Henry snatched the letter back. "Give it to me."

Joe walked behind Henry and looked at it together with him. "This should be Theo’s mother's phone number. Mr. Lancaster, do you want to call her?"

Henry looked at Joe as if he was an idiot. He picked u p his mobile phone and dialed the written number.

The phone was quickly connected and a hoarse female voice could be heard. "Henry Lancaster."

Henry narrowed his eyes and opened his mouth," Theo's mother?"

The woman on the other end of the phone smiled, "It's me. We’re finally talking."

Henry pursed his thin lips. "We should have talked a long time ago, but you’ve been avoiding me."

The woman replied, "That's true."

Henry stared at the phone number on the letter and gently said, "Then why did you suddenly leave your phone number for me to contact you?"

The woman on the other end said meaningfully," Because I feel that time is almost up. Now that we’re talking, perhaps we can meet each other soon."

Henry's heartbeat inexplicably, but he was looking forward to it.

He was looking forward to meeting her.

He didn't know why he felt this way. After thinking about it, he took it as an expectation of meeting his enemy.

Henry changed the subject. "Theo's mother, is Anna with you?"

The woman sneered on the other end of the phone," Henry Lancaster, what's the point of asking when you have the answer? I’ve clearly written in the letter that Anna is in my hands, and yet you’re asking me that question now. Do you think I'm lying to you on purpose?"

Henry asked coldly, "No. I just want to know how

Anna's doing."

The woman said lightly, "Don’t worry, she's very well. A s I said, I won’t hurt her and I just want her to be frightened."

"I want to see Anna."

"No way!" The woman's voice became cold with obvious sarcasm, "Henry Lancaster, you care so much for a stepdaughter. You’re really fraternal. Don't worry, the more you care about Anna Lancaster who is non-biological to you, the more I won't let you see her." 1

He had no idea about his biological son’s existence, but he cared so much for a stepdaughter. 1

How could she not hate him or blame him?

Even though he may care about Anna because of the psychological cues, she was unhappy about it too.

Thinking of this, the woman took a deep breath." Henry Lancaster, I didn't leave my phone number for you to ask about Anna Lancaster, but for you to slowly understand the grudge between us. Initially, I wanted t o tell you something about us, but I'm not in the mood now. That's all."

After speaking, she hung up the phone without hesitation.

Lisa saw that Yvonne didn't look too good and she couldn't help asking, "Miss Smith, what’s the matter?"

Yvonne took off the voice changer on her neck and then threw it into a transparent waterproof bag. "It's nothing. I'm just angry to hear that Henry Lancaster cares about Anna so much.”

Lisa comforted her. "Don’t be angry."

Yvonne rubbed her temples. "It's okay, I'll be fine in a while. Let’s go. Let's see how Anna is."

"Sure,” Lisa answered and took the lead.

Two of them were outside a closed room and two others were guarding the door.

When they saw that Yvonne was coming, the two men quickly saluted to her.

Lisa ordered from behind, "Open the door."

The two men immediately opened the door obediently.

Yvonne raised her foot and walked in. Her eyes were uncomfortable after she went in because of the bright light in the room.

Lisa quickly handed her a pair of sunglasses. "This room is full of Al holograms. All the light is very strong, but you'll be fine with these sunglasses."

Yvonne hummed and took the sunglasses, then put them on. After wearing them, her eyes didn't feel prickly anymore.

She asked, "Where’s Anna Lancaster?"

Lisa looked around and finally pointed to the corner." Over there." "Huh?" Yvonne turned her head and looked over.

In the corner, Anna was squatting motionlessly with her holographic glasses, as if she had lost her soul and only her body remained.

Yvonne walked up to Anna and looked at her condescendingly with an indifferent expression." What’s her current situation?”

Lisa took out a tablet from somewhere. "I think she's scared. You didn't see it because you were talking to M r. Lancaster on the phone earlier. I recorded it all.

Have a look, Miss Smith."
