Villains Act Shamelessly: The Heiress was the Great National Master!-Chapter 14: Responsibility Is Absolutely Impossible

Thea’s face turned pale for a moment.

Just a touch, and now he’s forcing someone to take responsibility?

This guy from the Ford Family must be unmarriageable, acting so shamelessly at a young age!

Considering rejecting might lead to Landon Ford’s strong retaliation, bringing trouble to her cheap parents.

Currently, Thea’s conscience remained intact. She pressed her lips together and, after a moment’s thought, decided to approve.

Zia noticed her unusual expression and immediately asked, "What’s wrong with you?"

Thea shook her head, "Nothing, I’ll go back to my room to rest now."

"Alright."

After saying goodnight to them, Thea returned to her bedroom.

Landon Ford added her but didn’t send any messages.

This made Thea a bit anxious.

She always felt it was a shame to have only seen one man’s body in her lifetime.

So it’s absolutely impossible to take responsibility.

——

At this moment, at the Ford family’s main residence.

Some people who attended the dinner party remained; in a side hall, Landon Ford sat there looking at the notification on his phone, finally relaxing his gloomy brows slightly.

A few of his friends, who were on better terms with him, were still discussing.

Their topic of conversation was precisely Thea who showed up today.

"Damn, that girl the Sutton Family brought today is really beautiful! She’s just like a little fairy from the legends. The women in my circle always call themselves little fairies, but look at her, she’s the real deal."

"Yes, so beautiful. Just standing there, she seemed to glow all over."

"My mom keeps urging me to find a woman for a marriage alliance, and I’m tempted. I want to propose to the Sutton Family."

Hearing this, the previously silent man lifted his head indifferently, with the corners of his lips curved in amusement, and his gaze becoming darker and colder.

Sensing the off atmosphere, his companions paused with some trepidation upon seeing Landon’s unclear expression.

Landon Ford has a bad temper, so even those who get along well with him sometimes can’t fathom this man’s thoughts.

Until he slowly spoke up, "They say she was swapped at birth?"

He didn’t mention names, but everyone immediately knew who he was referring to, and they began to chatter about the Sutton Family’s secrets.

"Yes, swapped for twenty years, and now the one at home, Aurora Sutton, is an outsider. No idea why it hasn’t been discovered all these years."

"Such a shame, raised in a rural area. If she had been raised in the Sutton Family from a young age, unimaginable."

"She’s truly good-looking. I never thought the Sutton Family’s genes were this strong. Aurora Sutton isn’t bad, but still can’t compete with the real deal."

"So what’s the situation in the Sutton Family now? Since Thea’s been brought back, can she tolerate Aurora Sutton?"

"Wasn’t Aurora absent tonight? Seems like blood ties still prevail."

When gossiping about these topics, everyone became more interested, adding their own speculations.

Landon Ford didn’t speak again. He stared at his phone, recalling tonight: that person with a cool demeanor, yet appearing mature and stern, admonishing him to uphold his reputation.

This was the funniest thing he’d ever heard in his lifetime.

Unsure if she was playing dumb or doing it deliberately, anyway, he found a sliver of interest, treating it as a bit of amusement amidst his dull life.

Exiting WeChat, he pocketed his phone, picked up an overcoat, speaking lazily, "Moongazer Pavilion, tonight, I’m treating."

Upon hearing this, those around him erupted into cheers, and they followed him out of the Ford residence.
