A Beauty With Multiple Masks Chapter 440

After pondering for a moment, Edmund enquired whether he should send someone to trail Mason. However, Russell waved his hand dismissively.

“If he tries anything funny, I’ll track him down to the ends of the earth. Let him go. We’ll go back and wait for him to come and sign the divorce papers.” With that, Russell strode out of the store.

The owner of the jewelry store trembled in fear. He did not dare to look directly at Russell.

Thank God he didn’t try to make things difficult for me and just took the jade statue without saying anything. If he did try to cause trouble and sent the authorities knocking on my door, I’d be doomed. I’ve done too many shady dealings!

As soon as he heaved a sigh of relief, a police car pulled up in front of the store.

A few policemen stepped out of the car and slapped a pair of handcuffs on him immediately. In a grim tone, they said, “We received a tip that your store is involved in illegal dealings. You’re coming with us to the police station. We’d like to ask you a few questions.”

The owner felt his vision go black, and he fainted.

Meanwhile, the sun dipped behind the horizon, bathing the sky in a warm, red glow.

Many people were heading home after a day’s work. However, students of the preparatory class were waiting

for their class to start.

A few minutes before class, someone could not help complaining, “This is too hard. I can hardly take it anymore.”

“Same here… If I knew it was going to be so exhausting, I would’ve chosen to complete my junior year of high school, then apply for Jadeborough University,” someone else piped up.

“Maxwell University may be the top university, but this is just too torturous. I don’t know how much more I can take it,” another student lamented.

While the room was filled with the weary complaints of the other students, Jared was hunched over his table doing practice questions.

Jared was clever and did well in his studies when he was abroad. However, because he dreamed of joining the military, he used to skip his homework even though he knew how to do it.

Hence, the Jupiters thought that he was not a good student.

That assumption could not be farther from the truth.
