A Beauty With Multiple Masks Chapter 438

The men did not look like they were there to pawn something. Instead, they seemed like they had come

to wreck the store.

Momentarily dumbfounded, the owner quickly recovered and asked weakly, “A-Are you here to pawn

something?”

The men in black suits stepped aside to form two lines, and a middle-aged man walked up from behind.

The owner read the financial section of the paper enough to recognize the person standing in front of

him. Stunned, he exclaimed, “M-Mr. Actonward?”

Russell turned to look at the owner, his face devoid of emotion. “Someone took something from my

house. I’m here to catch him. Please don’t try to get in our way.”

The owner hesitated for a moment, and he immediately thought of the jade statue.

Thanking the heavens that he had not transferred the money to Mason, he gestured toward the store

and said politely, “It just so happens that there’s a customer inside. Please go ahead and see whether

it’s the person you’re looking for.”

Russell nodded and strode past him.

Meanwhile, Mason was waiting impatiently inside the

store.

There isn’t much time left. I hope the owner hurries up.

At that moment, he heard the door to the store open.

Elated, he turned around and said, “Can you transfer it to me…”

His voice trailed off when he saw the person walking into the store.

It’s Russell!

Mason took a few steps backward. There was an expression of utter shock on his face as if he had just

seen a ghost. “Dad! What are you…”

“Transfer what to you?” Russell asked coldly despite knowing the answer.

Mason moved instinctively to block the jade statue from view. His mouth twitched, and he gave an

awkward laugh. “N-Nothing. I-I just came to see whether there was anything Yvette would like. I want to

give her a surprise.”

“Oh? A surprise, or a scare?” Russell arched an eyebrow.

Cold sweat broke out on Mason’s forehead.

Russell continued, “How much was the jade statue worth? Did you get enough to buy a present for

Yvette?”

In the blink of an eye, Mason’s face turned deathly pale.

He knows! How did he find out?

“I-I…” Mason stammered. He wanted to try and explain, but he could not think of what to say.

Russell snorted and said in a low, chilling voice, “Mason, my dear boy. I gave you a chance, and this is

how you repay me? How dare you steal something from my house and try to sell it off? You’re truly

something else.”

Mason’s heart sank, and it felt as if it was about to stop beating

“You’re going to go back with me and sign the papers. From now on, you’ll have nothing to do with the

Actonwards and Yvette,” Russell intoned. His words jolted Mason to his senses.

There’s no point in explaining, is there? I’ve already been caught red-handed, so what can I say?

Falling to the floor, Mason grabbed at Russell’s leg and pleaded, “You have to listen to me, Dad! I didn’t

want to do it, but I had no choice! If I don’t give them the money, they’ll kill me! You have to believe me!

I’ve never done something like this before! I promise I won’t take anything from the house ever again!”

Russell kicked him aside and said disdainfully, “That’s quite enough. You’ve disappointed me. You can

rot in jail, or you can get a divorce and get out of my sight forever. It’s your pick.”

Mason shook his head vehemently. “No! I don’t want to leave Yvette! I’m begging you! Please give me

one last chance! He tricked me, and I had no other way! It was all because of that highest-ranked

player! That b*stard tricked me!”
