Villains Act Shamelessly: The Heiress was the Great National Master!-Chapter 248: He Might Not Even Like You

Thea quickly nodded.

Lauren Blair said in relief, "Just consider it a lucky encounter of yours."

There are so many inexplicable things in this world, there’s no need to dwell on how they happen.

Lauren Blair said, "So, can you still read fortunes now?"

"Yes."

Thea looked up at Mrs. Blair, smiled, and said, "Don’t worry, Mom, your later years will be blessed."

With her around, how could it not be blessed?

"Then I’m assured."

Lauren Blair chuckled, "I could enjoy some blessings from you. But what about that girl from the Sutton Family? Did you find her family?"

"Found it, quite a sad situation too."

Thea briefly recounted the situation of Aurora Sutton, and after hearing it, Lauren Blair sighed, "Her biological father is truly... heartless, but at least she’s luckier than you, growing up with the Sutton Family."

"Mom, you can’t say that I’ve only suffered hardships." Thea shook her arm, "You also didn’t let me suffer since I was young. How would you feel if I told the Sutton Family that I suffered by your side?"

"You’re just open-minded now." Lauren Blair tapped Thea’s nose lightly, "The Sutton Family’s conditions can’t compare to ours, but you were spoiled since childhood. When I asked you to learn cooking from me, you flatly refused. Your pampered attitude is truly deep-rooted!"

"How can you say that?" Thea stood up and put her hands on her hips, "How many young people know how to cook nowadays? I simply don’t like cooking! Why should women be confined to the kitchen for life? Over in Qirenia, women cooking is frowned upon; those tasks should be done by men!"

"That’s a society flipped around."

Lauren Blair teased, "Back then, I didn’t worry about that. I didn’t know you were a child of the Sutton Family. I was just worried you’re so lazy, if you marry someone who can’t cook in the future, wouldn’t you both starve at home?"

"That’s what delivery is for!" Thea confidently added, "Delivery sustains the young people of China!"

Lauren Blair retorted, "Can delivery be as clean as homemade? I’m not berating you, not like you need to worry about these things now. By the way, when can I meet your boyfriend?" 𝕗𝕣𝐞𝐞𝘄𝐞𝚋𝚗𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹.𝚌𝕠𝚖

She previously thought Thea was too young to have a boyfriend; turns out she’d lived over thirty years without even holding a man’s hand, quite pitiful.

Though Thea spent over thirty years there, Lauren Blair didn’t perceive her as mature, guessing that growing up in the palace exposed her to many things but spared her from hardship, her demeanor unchanged.

Thea scratched her head, "Actually, we’ll visit you next Saturday, don’t be surprised."

"Surprised about what? I’ve seen the pictures on social media, that young man is quite handsome, and not that I’m saying. If you were like before, I don’t think he would’ve chosen you..."

Thea: "..."

Enough, enough, don’t provoke radical thoughts!

Thea and Lauren Blair chatted for most of the day, it was already midnight at twelve o’clock. Chloe Shaw, unaware of what they talked about, knew the three were to share a room, she knocked on the door and entered only after a response.

"What are you talking about at this late hour?"

Chloe approached and said, "Mom, didn’t you say you felt unwell? Time to sleep, we’re visiting sister’s new house tomorrow morning."
