Chapter 277:
Sadie nodded respectfully. “Okay, Mr. Benton. Call me if you need anything p>
After Sadie left, Annabel looked at the file in Rupert’s hand and asked, “Find anything out of the ordinary p>
Rupert turned to Judson and said in a cold voice, “I need a list of all the people who have access to the raw materials p>
“Okay, I’ll have someone make the list right away.” Judson quickly made arrangements. Soon, the list was sent to them.
It turned out that in addition to the employees in charge of the warehouse, the workers in transportation and production also had the chance to tamper with the raw materials.
Staring at the list of people, Rupert fell into deep thought. “Where are the suspicious raw materials now p>
Judson pointed out the window and said, “They’re all in the warehouse over there p>
“Just that one warehouse p>
Following Judson’s gaze, Annabel saw that there were a dozen warehouses in a row.
Judson nodded affirmatively. “Yes p>
“Take us to the warehouse,” Rupert ordered coldly.
The warehouse where the raw materials were stored was a few dozen meters away from the factory. Normally, there would be employees dedicated solely to the transportation of the raw materials from the warehouse to the factory. In other words, the materials could have been tampered with during transportation.
“The warehouse is right over there.” Judson pointed at the warehouse ahead of them while leading the way.
Annabel and Rupert walked closely behind Judson.
Just as they were about to reach the warehouse, Judson’s phone suddenly rang. He looked at the caller ID and turned to Rupert apologetically. “I’m sorry, Mr. Benton, I have to take this p>

“Okay.” Rupert waved his hand dismissively and walked on with Annabel.
The closer Annabel got to the warehouse, the more uneasy she became. She couldn’t shake off the feeling that something bad was about to happen.
Suddenly, thick smoke began pouring out of the warehouse in front of them.
A burning hot airwave rushed out, and bright orange flames flashed before Annabel’s eyes.
“Jesus! It’s going to explode!” Stunned, Annabel stopped and urgently started pulling Rupert back.
There was a deafening bang, followed by tremors in the ground.
Thick smoke soared into the sky, forming a mushroom cloud, and red flames roared to life.
“Annabel, watch out!” Amidst the chaos, Rupert’s nervous and anxious voice rang out.
When Annabel raised her head, she saw a sheet of metal break off from the roof due to the blast. It was flying straight toward her.
It all happened so fast. In the blink of an eye, Annabel was grabbed and shielded by Rupert. The sheet of metal slammed into him with a heavy bang, but he still held her tightly in his arms.
