Villains Act Shamelessly: The Heiress was the Great National Master!-Chapter 133: Please Come Out

When Theodore went back, the young man was already showing his dissatisfaction.

"Mr. Howard, your hospitality is truly remarkable."

Everywhere he goes, he is treated politely, never having encountered such courtesy as this.

Especially since Theodore seemed uninterested from the moment he met them.

Even those wealthy folks who don’t believe in these things will give them double takes once they realize their abilities.

Theodore apologized with a smile: "I’m sorry, I ran into my niece and had some personal matters to discuss."

The slightly older man glanced at Theodore, and suddenly smiled: "It seems Mr. Howard has met someone important."

This man’s fate line is rather peculiar, it was supposed to be a life of tribulations and decline, and that should have started not long ago.

But now he looks energetic, with no signs of decline, even though his fate line remains as it was, it no longer appears as bleak.

Theodore was a bit surprised, realizing these two really had some skills, he immediately waved his hand with a smile: "Indeed, lucky indeed."

Upon hearing this, the young man who had been displeased earlier gave him a once-over and raised an eyebrow: "Oh, care to share who this benefactor is?"

Theodore thought for a moment but didn’t mention Thea’s name, just said: "The company almost ran into trouble recently, and I met someone who gave me some pointers, helping me avoid a great disaster. Truly a benefactor."

The young man was somewhat surprised at this: "Who did you meet?"

Theodore shook his head: "I’m afraid I can’t disclose their name, hope you’ll understand."

He’s still in a competitive relationship with Thea, so even if Theodore isn’t the sharpest, he’d never reveal Thea’s existence to these two.

The two exchanged glances, thinking ’no wonder.’

They wondered if the person he met was from another sect.

These two didn’t know how Theodore managed to dodge it, and seeing that he didn’t wish to elaborate, they asked no further questions.

Thea returned to the Sutton Family almost at night.

Chloe had even called her, saying Mr. Shaw would be returning tomorrow, so Thea indeed had to go see him off.

Of course, Thea agreed immediately.

After she returned, she even searched online about The Aetherium Sect.

Whoa, there was naturally no information online.

What she did find were obvious scams, clearly not the legitimate sect Theodore mentioned.

Of course, if such things were public, wouldn’t it be blatantly challenging superstition?

So Thea found herself musing over her newly verified Weibo profile.

Under this title—it indeed looked utterly unconvincing.

Too conspicuous, it looked just like a scam.

But no worries, once fame spreads, business will be easier.

Hasn’t Dylan already become the first customer?

As Thea brooded over this on her bed, a message popped up on WeChat.

Landon: [Come out.]

Thea: "..."

Oh my, she’s been so busy today she almost forgot she had a boyfriend.

Is Landon downstairs?

Thea tutted and replied to him.

Thea: [What’s with this attitude towards your girlfriend? Speak with civility, be polite, be a gentlemanly boyfriend.]

Landon was quite teachable.

Landon: [Please come out.]

Thea was satisfied.

She was still in her pajamas and didn’t feel like changing, so she pulled a penguin night robe from the wardrobe and went downstairs.

Just in time to run into Zia Sutton, who was out for a late-night snack.

Zia asked, "Where are you going?"

Thea replied, "My boyfriend’s looking for me."

Zia was just about to question that so-called boyfriend, then suddenly remembered that this person and Landon Ford were already secretly involved.

Zia: "..."
