Uncovering My Wife's Secrets

Chapter 277 Uncovering My Wife’s Secrets

The woman in the black butterfly mask was indignant. She was at Annalise's mercy. She was afraid Annalise would

cut her throat. All she could say was, "Everyone, stop!" The henchmen immediately stopped. They did not want to

fight anymore, either. Although Trevor was shorter than them, he was agile and had enough endurance. They could

not gain the upper hand at all. If they continued fighting him, they would lose. They could only find openings to

attack Trevor from time to time because he was worried about Annalise. Otherwise, he would only crush them.

"Where is my grandpa?" Annalise asked. "Let me go, and I'll tell you!" The woman in the black butterfly mask

sounded smug.

Annalise tightened her grip on the dagger and said coldly, "Right now, I can take your life in exchange for my

grandpa's" The woman in the black butterfly mask was speechless. "Speak. Where is my grandpa?" Annalisc's voice

became even colder. The cold aura emanating from her made the woman in the black butterfly mask frown. She

said nothing. "Are you not going to tell me?" Immediately, the dagger pressed against her neck. She felt a bout of

pain, and warm liquid slid down her neck.

She knew Annalise was being serious. Although Annalise did not cut her throat, she had already cut the skin on her

neck. What a crazy woman, The masked woman did not dare to take the gamble. "He's in another unfinished

building," she said. "Take me there." Annalise grabbed the woman's clothes. Suddenly, she remembered that the

woman was still wearing a mask. She reached out and was about to take off her black butterfly mask. The woman

in the black butterfly mask wanted to find an opportunity to escape, but Annalise immediately pressed the dagger

in her hand hard against her skin.

Once again, the woman in the black butterfly mask stopped struggling. At the top of the stairs, a voice suddenly

sounded. Everyone looked over. They saw two men holding Old Mr. Parks hostage and walking over. Behind Old Mr.

Parks, two more men walked over while holding a woman hostage. The woman was Layla. The masked woman's

eyes flickered/ Now that she was under Annalisé's control, all her plans had been disrupted. At first, she did not plan

to kill anyone. She only wanted to create chaos and misunderstanding so Annalise would leave Julian on her own

accord.

First, she had begged her father to arrange for someone to deal with the Caretech Pharmaceutical Company.

Annalise would have to be dealt with. Then, she had someone trick Old Mr. Parks away, using him to lure Julian

away. She then sent someone to spread a rumor around Chloe, causing Chloe to misunderstand that Julian was

meeting his elusive love. Chloe was sure to be furious. She would then tell Annalise about it. Annalise might believe

it right away, or she might doubt it. The masked woman had considered the latter. Considering the case of what

would happen if Annalise doubted the news, she texted Annalise's phone and asked her out. She also brought Layla

over

At first, she planned to send Old Mr. Parks back safely so Annalise could see that Julian was coming to save Layla.

And once Annalise saw that Julian disregarded the Caretech Pharmaceutical Company and her to save Layla, a

misunderstanding would come between them. She was sure they would not move on from this misunderstanding.

Even if Annalise forced herself to stay with Julian because of his status, it would still be a thorn in Annalise's flesh.

Once a woman felt that way, she would throw all kinds of tantrums.

What kind of relationship could withstand such torment? She would only have to wait for them to get a divorce.

However, when Annalise rushed over, she suddenly changed her mind. When she stood upstairs and saw Annalise

and Trevor walking over, she wanted to kill them. What a great opportunity. After killing Annalise, it would not

matter if there was a misunderstanding. Once she was dead, she would be gone. She would disappear, once and

for all.

It was exactly like how her father had sent someone to kill her uncle's missing son to consolidate his position as the

Xander Group's president. However, her plan was in shambles right now. Therefore, she had someone bring Old Mr.

Parks and Layla over. Julian had always worn a mask around the other disciples. They would not know his identity.

But how could she possibly not know who he was? She liked Julian and had been obsessed with him for so many

years. She would learn things about him in secret. What did she not know about him?

He was the founder of East Arising International Group. He was her mentor's first disciple. He was the oldest son of

the Parks family. He was the deputy leader of Red Hacker. Before this, she did not want Julian to find his grandpa, so

she had someone take Old Mr. Parks's phone and rush to the eastern outskirts of the city. But later on, she wanted

to get Julian to come over. She then had someone bring Old Mr. Parks's phone back from the outskirts. She believed

Julian should arrive soon.

"Let my grandpa go." Annalise looked at grandpa's hands that were tied behind his back. His body was bound with a

rope, and his mouth was covered with a cloth. She felt terrible. "Let me go, and I'll let your grandpa go," said the

woman in the black butterfly mask. She also had leverage. She would not let Annalise have her way. "I'll count to

three. Release my grandpa. Otherwise, I'll take your life. At most, I'll kill you and beat them all up." Annalise started

counting. "One, two..." The woman in the black butterfly mask quickly shouted, "If this woman kills me, kill her

grandpa right away." Annalise shouted back, "Kill my grandpa, and none of you will escape unscathed. Also, if this

woman dies, will you still get paid?"

The woman in the black butterfly mask- smiled. "I've already paid all of you in full. If you disobey me, my mentor

will never let you off." "Mmm..." Old Mr. Parks was afraid Annalise would kill the woman in the black butterfly mask

on impulse. But he was not afraid that the woman in the black butterfly mask would die. He was not afraid that his

captors would kill him, either. Instead, he feared Annalise would implicate herself in a criminal lawsuit based on an

impulse./ At his age, he was no longer afraid of death. As long as Annalise and Julian were together, he would be at

ease even if he died. He was only afraid that something terrible. would happen to Annalise. Annalise looked at

grandpa's pained expression and felt even worse. She took a deep breath and told herself to calm down.

At times like this, she had to negotiate calmly. She had captured the leader. She had leverage. She suspected that

this woman was Nancy. Seeing Old Mr. Parks's agitated expression, the woman in the black butterfly mask said,

"Take off the gag." wron A man immediately removed the cloth from Old Mr. Parks's mouth. "Annalise, be a good

girl. Don't act rashly." Old Mr. Parks said, "I just want you to be alright." Old Mr. Parks could not tell Annalise not to

kill anyone. This would make the other party even more arrogant and fearless. He looked at Annalise with affection

and shook his head. Annalise's heart ached even more when she saw grandpa look that way. Her eyes turned red.

"I'll count to five, and we'll exchange the hostages. One, two..." said the woman in the black butterfly mask.

"Who are you? What do you want?" Annalise asked. Just now, when Annalise thought this woman might be Nancy,

she was about to tear off her mask. But at this moment, Annalise suddenly realized she had been too impulsive. If

she were indeed Nancy, once she took off her mask and exposed Nancy's identity, there would be no doubt that

Nancy would fight her to the death. Grandpa was still in the masked woman's hands. Annalise could not act rashly.

At this moment, Julian had already located them. He stealthily climbed up the building, pressing his body against the

wall...
