Villains Act Shamelessly: The Heiress was the Great National Master!

Chapter 352: Aside from the Aetherium Sect, I’ve Never Heard of Any Other Sect

Thea Shaw was heartbroken at this moment: "Whatever."

Landon Ford chuckled, "I made you some porridge, eat a bit later. It’s so late, why don’t you stay here tonight?"

At the end, he deliberately lowered his voice, hoarse and deep, almost like a deadly whisper.

Thea said, "Alright, you sleep in the living

+room."

Landon Ford sneered as if she was talking nonsense.

After she finished her soup, Landon handed her a tissue to wipe her mouth. She did not resist, tilting her neck up for him to clean.

After what naturally transpired, Thea did not foster any resistance. Seeing her so obedient, Landon’s mood improved even more.

In the past twenty-plus years, he probably never felt this good.

Thea lay back in the bed with a small sigh of contentment.

Though things developed quickly, it seemed somehow inevitable.

Landon was cooking porridge outside, while Thea took out her phone to call Mrs. Sutton, saying she wouldn’t be coming back tonight.

Mrs. Sutton fell into an eerie silence for a moment, then whispered, "Be careful... you’re still so young."

Thinking it oneself is one thing, having others say it made Thea’s face blush awkwardly red: "Mom, what nonsense are you thinking?"

She quickly hung up the phone.

Mrs. Sutton: "..."

Just as Thea was about to check her phone, she remembered that Florence Locke was still fighting alone over Shirley Moss’s matter.

She immediately called to inquire about the progress.

Florence sounded worried, "Public opinion is manageable, but other matters are tough. The police say it’s been too long to find more concrete evidence. Julian’s evidence isn’t enough, and after Ryan Sinclair found out Julian provided me evidence, they fell out. The Sinclair Family is giving him trouble now too."

Florence sighed, "Looks like I have to step out and negotiate with the Sinclair Family."

Thea said, "Ryan’s mother’s family’s influence is also substantial, which is why his position is so important. Maybe you can start from there."

Florence sneered, "No matter how big it is, the Master will make him pay the price he should! He even tried to look for Shirley this afternoon. Thankfully she didn’t want to see him. We’re just waiting for that woman from back then to come back. Even if Julian has more tricks, I can get that woman to turn herself in!"

Thea cheered her on, "Master is indeed formidable!"

Florence sighed, "Who’s making me willing to help her?! By the way, aren’t you still doing fortune-telling? Have you heard of the Aetherium Sect?"

"Master, you know about the Aetherium Sect too?"

Thea was a bit surprised because the Aetherium Sect wasn’t known among ordinary people, and only notable figures would know about it.

Even Theodore Howard didn’t know back then, which says a lot.

Didn’t expect Master to know this so soon, proving that her work is indeed not simple.

"Knowing is one thing."

Florence lowered their voice, "I’ve recently come across someone from the Aetherium Sect, and it makes me think there’s something unusual about this sect."

Thea mused, "Indeed, any sect that can claim to be legitimate supernatural practitioners is not ordinary."

"It’s not that kind of unusual," Florence said. "I don’t know much yet, but I think you should be cautious."

"Huh?!" Thea was confused, "What’s wrong with doing some fortune-telling?"

"Your abilities are too strong, making it easy for trouble to find you," Florence said. "I’m not sure how sects develop in your time, but I believe there should be diverse approaches in any field. But in Aethelgard, apart from the Aetherium Sect, I’ve never heard of any other sects."
