Villains Act Shamelessly: The Heiress was the Great National Master!-Chapter 260: It’s Best Not to Let Her Move In
By Saturday, today was an important day.
Landon Ford was going to personally take her to meet Lauren Blair and the others formally.
He had specially scheduled today, freeing up the entire day, and was waiting downstairs at the Sutton home early in the morning.
He arrived particularly early, and Thea Shaw wasn’t even awake at that time.
Back in Qirenia, she could keep up the early-to-bed and early-to-rise routine, but now in modern times, she’s sleeping later and waking up later, though at least never past 10 AM.
It wasn’t until Thea finished washing up and went downstairs for breakfast that she found Landon Ford also eating breakfast in the living room.
He was portrayed in a harmonious scene with Mr. and Mrs. Sutton.
Thea: "..."
"Awake?"
Landon noticed Thea, raised his eyebrows and cast a glance her way. Thea was momentarily stunned, then tutted: "Landon, you’re really not reserved at all like this."
"What’s reserved or not reserved, stop spouting nonsense!" Mrs. Sutton chastised briefly, then said, "Hurry down and have breakfast. I heard from Landon that you have to go to your Mrs. Blair’s place today? Eat early and head over."
Thea coughed once, went downstairs, and sat not beside Landon, but opposite him.
Landon raised an eyebrow at her; the table wasn’t large, with little space in the middle.
As soon as Thea sat down, she felt her calf being caressed.
She looked up, and the man opposite showed a slightly flirtatious and wanton grin.
This scene was really thrilling, and Thea also gave a sweet smile, took her foot out of her slippers, and moved it upward along Landon’s thin pant leg. At that moment, a hint of disbelief appeared on the man’s face.
He quickly responded, his smile becoming even more roguish.
But soon he could no longer laugh.
Thea’s fair big toe and second toe pressed tightly against the thin fabric, almost feeling the skin underneath, and then — she clenched hard.
Landon: "..."
He sat up straight with an expressionless face.
Thea huffed coldly in her heart.
Playing this game so early in the morning, still dare to rub her with his foot, acting out some drama series trope.
Coming in from outside, weren’t his shoes dusty! And he dared to rub against someone, a cleanliness-loving fairy like her couldn’t stand it!
Their little interaction naturally went unnoticed by Mr. and Mrs. Sutton, though Landon’s smile was quite obvious, and then suddenly he went expressionless, making Mr. Sutton look up and wonder if Landon was really so fickle, maybe he was unhappy Thea didn’t sit next to him?
But as parents, they were still there!
How could the two of them be so audacious!
After finishing breakfast, Thea went upstairs to change clothes and shoes, and then naturally prepared to leave with Landon.
Just as they were about to leave, Mrs. Sutton suddenly said, "Thea, are you coming back for dinner tonight?" 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚
Thea thought for a moment and then said, "Depends, might come back, might not. Is something up?"
"Oh, nothing much, just remember a few days ago when we went back to that farmhouse? The owner’s daughter, Monica Cole, she’s out of the hospital now. Her dad thought it over and decided to have her transfer to study in Aethelgard. Her dad is quite chummy with us, so he might let Monica stay with us. Monica will come tonight, but if you can’t come home, it’s okay."
Upon hearing this, Thea’s expression abruptly froze.
She rarely looked a bit serious: "It would be best not to, right? Our home is quite far from the school. It’s not convenient for her to stay here; let her rent a place."
Mrs. Sutton: "..."
