“Mr. Caden, I found out that he had a fetish for collecting human skin while he was abroad. He used to buy people from the deep web, so no one noticed. This time, he came to America to attend a jewelry exhibition, and as soon as he got off the plane, someone sent him a link. It was the webpage for buying and selling Ms. Lindsey.”
“Continue investigating,” he said, slowly blowing out smoke.“The police came and took care of it.”
“Yes.”
Private room.
Beatrice returned to her seat as if nothing had happened.
As soon as I sat down, the door of the private room was pushed open by the police.
“Don’t move! Everyone stand up and move to the side!”
Everyone was startled, but upon seeing that it was the police, they quickly got up from the table and left.
Beatrice also stepped back with the others, silently standing at the back of the crowd.
Alicia snapped back to reality and asked, “Excuse me, officer. Is there something wrong? We were just having a normal dinner.” The police looked at the crowd sternly and said, “We received a report that someone here was using prohibited substances.”

He immediately pressed on, “Who else is not here? Where are they now? If you don’t confess honestly, it means you are covering up the crime.” Ms. Moreno frowned and looked displeased at Madelynn.
Madelynn immediately covered her mouth and apologized, “I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to, but Ms. Moreno, I’m also doing this for your own good. In case you become someone who harbors criminals, you’ll never be able to hold your head up high in your life. How can you still design the most perfect jewelry?”
Upon hearing this, everyone nodded in agreement and turned their gaze towards Alicia, with a sense of Originally, we were just in a cooperative relationship, and there was no need to take on such risks.
Just as Alicia was at a loss for how to respond, Beatrice raised her hand in the corner.
“I was here!”
In Madelynn’s astonished gaze, Beatrice slowly approached.
