Chapter 1040 Sue Is Found
After Fanny finished exining what she knew, Anthony and Andy looked at each other. It seemed that
the person Fanny described was Allen for sure.
"Hey, why are you looking for this guy anyway?" Fanny asked them curiously.
"Don''t ask. It''s none of your business," Anthony replied tantly. He stared at Fanny and continued
asking her, "Tell me, did he tell you anything about where he may have been staiyng? Do you know
where can we find him?"
"Well..." Fanny started to utter something, but then she stopped abruptly. It seemed like she wanted to
continue, but something was preventing her. She watched Anthony intently. Anthony understood what
her hesitation meant immediately. He sneered and took out another stack of cash from his wallet. But
he didn''t give it to Fanny directly. He waved the money to her face and said, "If you can provide me his
address, the money is yours.
But if you even think about lying to me, I will make sure that you live in despair and misery every single
day for the rest of your life."
"You can rest assured. I wouldn''t dare to displease a man like you." Fanny''s eyes twinkled with delight
as she saw the money. She knew very clearly that even if she entertained six customers, she couldn''t
make the amount of money that Anthony offered. Moreover, it was just a few simple words that she had
to say to earn it.
It really was her lucky day.
"When the man requested me, we had small talk. He asked me if I was willing to leave this ce with
him, and... that he would go abroad in a few days. I was tempted so I tried asking where he was living
now." Fanny smiled bitterly as she continued, "You know that a woman in my line of work would like,
more than anything else, to find a reliable man who could give us a better life. None of us is willing to
do this forever."
She sighed, as if she pitied her own fate. "He didn''t reply o me very clearly, but he mentioned some
kind of junkyard. The junkyard closest to the club was in the suburb. I noticed that he didn''t want to talk
about it, so I didn''t ask anymore."
"A junkyard? Are you sure that''s what he said?" Anthony repeated.
"Yes!" Fanny nodded firmly. She told Anthony what she knew about that ce. "You know what, the
junkyard has been abandoned for many years. Moreover, it is far from the city, so people seldom visit
there. Homeless people used to reside there, but now even they don''t go there because they believe it
is a haunted ce."
Fanny couldn''t help bad mouthing Allen. She sneered, "Humph! How ridiculous! This guy thought that
he could fool me. He lives in that kind of a ce while bragging that he could move abroad?"
Anthony threw the money to her and then ignored herpletely. He was extremely excited since he
had gotten the information on where to find Allen. He turned to Andy to check with him. Andy hesitated
for a moment, and then replied, "I have had my men check it out already. The only ce in the
neighborhood that can provide shelter without causing any attention is the junkyard."
"Thanks!" Anthony thanked him and then turned around hastily. Since he had gotten the clue about
Allen, he didn''t want to waste any time. The only thing he wanted was to rescue Sue.
As Anthony hurried out, Andy tried to catch up with him.
Sheryl and Charles had been waiting outside the door. When they saw Anthony, Sheryl went forward
and asked urgently, "What''s going on? Have you found out where Sue is?"
"Yes, I''ve found out," Anthony nodded. His face was solemn. He looked at Sheryl and said, "Sher, I''m
going to look for her right now. It''s enough for me to go there alone. The rest of you can just go home.
When I get Sue out, I''ll call you."
After his statement, Anthony was about to get in the car. Andy pulled him aside and questioned, "What
are you going to do to save her?"
"Just leave it to me. I have my ways," Anthony replied coldly, displeased that Andy was holding him up
from going to rescue his family. In the next moment, he realized that he was being a bit offensive and
so he added, "You have all been very helpful in all of this. I shouldn''t involve you in anything further."
"Come on! Sue is our friend too. If you say that again, I''ll be extremely mad!" His statement made
Sheryl furrow her eyebrows.
"Furthermore, how can you save her alone?" she added.
"I will find a way," Anthony answered shortly.
Andy nced at Anthony and reasoned with him, "Did you hear anything that woman said just now?
The junkyard is located in a remote area, and they have a very open view of the surrounding
environment. If you drive there, they will see youing for sure. In that case, you will expose yourself.
In my opinion, we should park the car far away and then figure out how to get close."
"He''s right," Charles agreed. "Allen is a fugitive now. He''s desperate. If you provoke him, he will be
capable of doing anything, even hurting Sue. So we must be cautious."
After both Charles and Andy made the same suggestion, Anthony realized that he was too reckless. He
epted their opinions and then they set out together. Their car was parked one kilometer away from
the junkyard. Then they sneaked into the junkyard.
It was already after midnight, so Allen and Peggy both fell asleep. It was dark all around and there was
only a dim light in the junkyard.
They found a broken hut and then approached. When they peeped through the door, Anthony
recognized Sue immediately. She was lying with Peggy, with both her hands and feet tied together. She
was unable to move.

Sue couldn''t rest at all after she was kidnapped. Somehow, maybe because of telepathy, she opened
her eyes all of a sudden. Then she saw Anthony who was hiding outside the door with only his head
showing.
She was so excited that she almost cried out. Luckily she was able to hold it in.
"Hush!" Anthony made a gesture to tell her to keep silent. Sue nodded excitedly.
She turned over, and touched Peggy carelessly to wake her up. Peggy was alert enough and she
opened her eyes immediately. She yelled at Sue impatiently, "What are you doing? Can''t you keep
silent for a moment and close your eyes? It''s veryte and I''m tired."
"I... I need to go to the bathroom," Sue exined anxiously. This was the only reason that she could
frequently.
"Troublesome girl! Always a pain in my butt!" Peggyined. Even though she wasn''t happy to do
it, she still untied Sue. She urged, "Be quick!"
"Got it," Sue nodded obediently and rxed her wrists and ankles. When she was about to walk out,
she realized that Peggy was still following her.
She knitted her eyebrows and tried to persuade Peggy, "Why don''t you just go back to sleep? I won''t
be long. I just have to pee. I can''t escape anyway."
"Shut up!" Peggy mumbled impatiently andmanded, "Don''t try to y tricks!"
Sue had no choice but to live with it.
Sue walked very slowly. She was mindful of Anthony all the way. When she approached the front door,
Anthony made an eye contact with her and gave her a signal and she stepped aside immediately.
Peggy realized that something was wrong, when suddenly a big hand covered her mouth from behind
her. She was grabbed by a powerful man, and she was unable to move nor make a sound.
Anthony whispered in a low voice, "Sue, just go now! Hurry up. Sher is waiting for you out there."
