Villains Act Shamelessly: The Heiress was the Great National Master!-Chapter 270: If They Can, So Can I!
"They know about each other and still agree?"
Thea Shaw also realized that in modern society, Iris Knight could pull off such a feat. Just how alluring and capable is she?
From their short time together, if judging by looks alone, Thea had to admit— Irix does possess that kind of destructive allure.
Could it be that each of these men has influence, all desiring Iris, but lacking the means to deal with each other, thus having no choice but to tolerate sharing her?
It’s understandable given Silas Sinclair’s status, but Colin Cole... who does he think he is?
Iris Knight, you can’t be this indiscriminate!
Thea suddenly thought of a certain melodramatic NP novel.
So she cast a glance at Landon Ford.
Landon noticed something off in her gaze, frowning slightly: "Why are you looking at me like that?"
"It’s nothing," Thea couldn’t help but let her mind wander, "I was just wondering, with her being so charming, if I hadn’t appeared, maybe you would’ve been one of them."
"What kind of nonsense are you thinking every day?" Landon flicked her forehead with his finger. "What I like, what I want, must be mine alone; there absolutely can’t be anyone else."
His words carried an undeniable assertiveness.
Besides, someone like Iris Knight— he simply wouldn’t care for her.
Thea clicked her tongue: "If you didn’t like her, you might end up being discarded."
Indeed, if the story were to unfold based on Iris Knight’s character, someone like Landon Ford who doesn’t take the bait, either ends up as the final antagonist or as a stepping stone for the leads.
Thea took a serious look at Landon Ford once more and then thought.
Her Brother Landon wouldn’t just be a side character but definitely the ultimate BOSS; there’s no way he’d be trivial!
"Stop thinking about all that nonsense for a day," Landon was puzzled by where Thea’s thoughts were coming from. He definitely couldn’t be associated with someone like Iris Knight.
The ice cream was served, and he picked up a spoon, scooping some into Thea’s mouth.
Thea opened her mouth and obediently accepted his offering.
During their conversation, Iris Knight didn’t fail to notice them from outside the restaurant.
Thea stood out so much; she actually saw her at first glance.
But there was no need to greet them, so she didn’t go in, instead passing by with Brooke Adler, glancing inside.
Brooke noticed and asked her, "What are you looking at?"
Iris shook her head, and Brooke, with a gentle demeanor, asked, "Are you tired? Should we find a place to rest?"
Iris stopped in her tracks, looked at him, and suddenly sighed, "Brooke, don’t fall for me. I’m just not someone worth liking."
"I don’t have any reasons other than I just like you," Brooke suddenly blushed, his eyes full of undeniable affection for Iris, and then he spoke with disappointment, "I know about you and Silas, but I am also aware of Arlo’s existence. If you can accept the two of them, then... maybe I’m also acceptable."
Iris’s expression contorted for a moment.
She quickly regained her composure and said, "How do you know?"
"I know Arlo," Brooke’s gaze turned calm, "Iris, if they both can, I can too; I don’t mind it."
"..."
Iris didn’t speak; she just gazed at the bustling crowd with eyes that seemed somewhat hollow, unsure of what she was contemplating.
