Try this:

var obj = {"Result":{"d8bf6ab7-21a2-4964-a2cf-e7a1db097f08_FROM":"FROM"}};

console.log(obj.Result["d8bf6ab7-21a2-4964-a2cf-e7a1db097f08_FROM"]);

It works, can you explain why i cant use . operator to get the value??? like obj.Result.***

You can't get it because you have hyphens which are considered as minus signs.
