Villains Act Shamelessly: The Heiress was the Great National Master!-Chapter 145: Are the Parents the Problem?

Nora Morgan’s body tensed up.

It was obvious that this was her first time pretending to be insane, and her acting skills were still not up to par after all this time.

Thea Shaw’s words left her unsure of how to react.

After all, Thea was the first one to see through her act.

Even her parents couldn’t detect it!

Thea glanced at Nora and continued with a smile, "A mad person usually exhibits various states of madness, or occasionally shows bouts of normalcy. You made a mistake initially; you should have pretended to have intermittent mental illness. Being occasionally normal would better explain how you maintain such cleanliness. A mad person would generally even suffer from incontinence."

Nora Morgan: "..."

This time, she couldn’t hold back. She turned her head to look at Thea Shaw, "How did you figure it out?"

The girl in front of her looked ethereal, but it turned out she really had some skills.

But Nora inclined towards the belief that Thea was a psychology major, who saw through her normalcy by observing certain behaviors.

Thea was completely at ease: "I was actually invited here by your parents, though my specialty is not in dispelling evil spirits, I’m indeed a fortune teller. I saw through your face that you’re not pretending to be insane. Miss Morgan, things have to be resolved; pretending to be insane won’t really solve anything. Your mother, Miss Diana Miles, seems to be someone who pays great attention to her appearance, however, I noticed her dark circles, it must be the sleepless nights worrying over your matter."

After all, having been trained for decades, Thea knew exactly what to say.

Sure enough, Nora was somewhat shaken, her gaze couldn’t meet Thea’s, and her head drooped down as well.

It was clear she was saddened by how her mother suffered due to her troubles.

The reason for her pretending might be difficult to articulate.

Thea didn’t rush her, she surveyed Nora’s room, the walls adorned with things that a normal girl would like, and even posters of celebrities, including one of those mortal idols Thea used to adore. 𝒻𝘳𝘦𝘦𝘸ℯ𝒷𝘯𝘰𝑣ℯ𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝘮

Thea: "..."

Well, for the sake of having had similar tastes in the past, she’ll put a bit more heart into this task.

Suddenly, from behind, Nora asked, "You don’t seem like one of those so-called same kind as those masters."

But at least she seemed somewhat genuine, unlike others who immediately claimed there were evil spirits.

If Nora hadn’t been able to hold it in, she would have burst into laughter a long time ago.

Watching them perform saying the evil spirits were expelled, yet she remained the same, leaving Old Mrs. Morgan fuming and her parents displeased, left her feeling both complicated and resentful.

"I’m definitely not in the same trade if we’re talking about performing shaman dances." Thea waved her hand, "I’m just a fortune teller."

"Oh?" Nora was a bit curious, "You can foresee the future?"

"Yes, I could tell something was off because I see your future relationship line is perfect."

"Me?" Nora was a bit surprised, "A perfect relationship line?"

For a long while, Nora sneered, "How can there be a perfect relationship in this world?"

Thea instantly picked up on something, she quickly realized, "Could it be the issue is related to your parents?"

Nora, being so young, shouldn’t be this pessimistic. Thinking about Brandon Morgan’s face and chaotic personal life, it all made sense.

Nora immediately fell silent.

She didn’t expect that with just a few words, Thea had genuinely deduced it.

Seeing her reaction, Thea understood and directly asked, "Is it because of your father?"

Nora was shocked, raised her head, "How did you... how could you tell there was an issue with my father?"

With just a few words exchanged, Thea managed to figure it out. Deep down, Nora felt somewhat convinced.
