Villains Act Shamelessly: The Heiress was the Great National Master!-Chapter 255: Returning to the Countryside to Pay Respects

Thea and Mrs. Sutton returned home shortly, and then Chloe called Thea.

She said that they have already arrived at home.

Thea asked her, "Is Jimmy Zimmerman still lingering around there?"

"Haven’t seen him."

Now that their parents were also by their side, Chloe’s mood had calmed down a lot, and she sneered, "If he dares to come, Dad said he’ll take care of him."

"That’s good, you don’t need to worry anymore." Thea had a class later, so she didn’t speak much with Chloe, and just added, "If you’re short of anything over there, you can ask me to buy it and send it over."

"Alright, if there’s anything missing, I’ll mention it. It’s so convenient now anyway, we don’t really need you to buy stuff. Rather, now that our parents are in Aethelgard, you should come over for a meal when you have time."

"Got it."

Now that Lauren and the others have come to Aethelgard, Thea found another place to go.

On Wednesday, the Sutton Family was going to honor the grandparents of Thea.

Mr. and Mrs. Sutton come from families where their parents passed early due to health issues, they would also have to visit the graves of the maternal grandparents after some time.

Vincent Sutton, the uncle, was currently in the USA dealing with a lawsuit with his ex-wife and couldn’t come back on the anniversary.

Of course, they hardly ever came back anyway, and the Sutton Family didn’t really mind.

The place they were going to had a nice environment and a picturesque local bed and breakfast. Due to the long journey, they would usually rest for a day and leave the next, just enough time to enjoy the view.

It was Thea’s first time participating in a Sutton family event, since she wasn’t familiar with past affairs of the Sutton Family, Mrs. Sutton told her many stories about the Sutton elders on the way.

Before becoming prosperous, they lived in this scenic place.

In recent years, with the state improving the environment, many graves had been relocated to a centralized location; the gravesites of the Sutton elders were arranged in a nearby cemetery.

After the worship, they would return to the bed and breakfast for some rest.

This place was close to the county town, with convenient and accessible transport.

After finishing the worship and descending the mountain, Mr. Sutton chuckled at Thea and said, "Back then, if I hadn’t gone to Aethelgard to develop and hadn’t succeeded, we might have settled down here."

Thea nodded in agreement, "The environment here is pretty nice."

Zia, born in the city, didn’t quite favor the place, "It’s alright, a lot of facilities are missing..."

After all, it’s just a county town, how could it compare to Aethelgard?

Mr. Sutton turned back and gave Zia a glare.

Zia: "..."

He was just conveying his honest opinion, feeling aggrieved. 𝚏𝕣𝐞𝗲𝐰𝕖𝐛𝐧𝕠𝕧𝚎𝚕.𝐜𝚘𝗺

Ever since Thea had that dream where she got beaten, and Zia stood aside without interfering, she always looked at Zia a bit peculiarly.

Of course, it was just a dream, she didn’t blame Zia for it.

But she couldn’t help but wonder if Zia really was this kind of person. Otherwise, how could she have such a bizarre dream?

She didn’t expect that such a handsome guy could commit such heinous acts in her dreams!

They stayed at a local bed and breakfast, where the owner and Mr. Sutton knew each other.

The owner greeted them cheerfully and, upon seeing Thea this year, couldn’t help but exclaim, "Is this your daughter-in-law?"

The owner didn’t know the truth, and with Zia being the only male in the family, the owner assumed it was the Suttons bringing Zia’s girlfriend for the worship.

But the girlfriend looked too ethereal!

Mr. Sutton quickly clarified, "Of course not! This is my daughter, don’t talk nonsense!"

The owner was a bit dumbfounded, "Huh?"

Then even the way he looked at Mr. Sutton changed a bit.
