A Beauty With Multiple Masks Chapter 825
The Specialized Forces soon found a clue through the surveillance cameras around their headquarters.
They tracked Cindy down to No. 111 Sunflower Street, only to find an empty house. The woman was long gone by
then.
The deputy captain clenched his jaw as he ran a finger across the water droplets in the bathroom. “We’ve just
missed her!”
“What should we do now, deputy captain?” one team member asked. “This is the outskirts, so there are no
surveillance cameras around. We‘ve checked but couldn’t find their whereabouts.”
The deputy captain thought about it and furrowed his brows. “Inform all our men stationed at the exit routes that
the fugitive is going to leave Jadeborough soon. Make sure they screen everyone who’s leaving the city carefully.”
“Got it!”

“Yes!”
The Specialized Forces got busy.
Meanwhile, Vinson was having dinner with Arielle when he received a phone call from the deputy captain.
He frowned upon hearing the report.
After cutting the line, he revealed everything to a curious Arielle. “I’ll give you a ride back to Maple Mansion.”
“What about you?” Arielle asked.
“I’ll head to Sunflower Street to see if they left any trace behind.”
Arielle stood up. “I’ll come with you.” Her tone allowed no room for negotiation.
Left with no choice, Vinson nodded reluctantly.
They bade goodbye to the manager before leaving.
The manager asked, “About that foreigner…”
Arielle shook her head. “He didn’t contact me. But if he shows up again, just ignore him.”
“Got it.”
Arielle pondered shortly before adding, “Remember to inform the chef about our franchise business. He can be a
shareholder through technical achievements.”
The manager was smart enough to understand she didn’t want anyone else to poach the chef.
“I understand,” he assured her. “Have a safe trip!”
In the car, Vinson inquired, “You were talking about a foreigner earlier. Who is that?”
“Just a diner who wanted to acquire Maureen’s Kitchen,” Arielle revealed.
Vinson inclined his head. “He has good taste.”
Chuckling, Arielle uttered, “Well, no matter what, I won’t sell Maureen’s Kitchen.”
Maureen’s Kitchen was important to her. Not only did Vinson gift the place to her, but it was also Maureen’s favorite
restaurant. As such, she hoped to expand it to become a global franchise business.

The car sped along the road smoothly. As Arielle was in the car, Vinson would step on the brake at least five
seconds before the light turned red.
If he was alone, he would’ve sped up whenever the light turned yellow.
Although it was only a twenty-minute journey, Vinson took over forty minutes to arrive at Sunflower Street.
“Captain Nightshire,” the deputy captain greeted him. “This house has been empty for a long time as the owner is
dead. I wonder how they manage to find this place.”
“What about the surveillance cameras?”
“There aren’t any surveillance cameras nearby, so we have to rely on the fingerprints in the house.” came the
deputy captain’s reply.
“Mm.” Vinson acknowledged his words with a nod. He turned at his shoulder to see Arielle kneeling beside a chair.
She seemed to be staring at something.
He strode over to her with the deputy captain in tow. “Sannie, did you find something?”
Pointing at the skin flakes on the ground, she said, “Look.”
Vinson and the deputy captain leaned closer to take a look at the flakes that were scattered all over the ground. As
the flakes were extremely thin and near-transparent, one might fail to notice it.
