Villains Act Shamelessly: The Heiress was the Great National Master!-Chapter 287: All the More Likable

Adrian Anson had never even heard of the sect named Star Palace.

But he could see the disdain in Thea Shaw’s eyes.

However, judging by how she could read Miss Shea’s face at a glance, she must be someone formidable, and younger than him too.

Adrian Anson asked Thea Shaw, "Why haven’t I heard of you before?"

In this circle, there are only a few well-known people, and those who can easily read faces are definitely not simple figures. Moreover, Thea Shaw is so beautiful, it seemed odd Adrian had never heard of her.

"I was in retreat before, not mingling in this circle."

Thea Shaw casually replied, and then asked him, "Are you at the hospital because of Miss Shea’s affair?"

"Yes."

Technically speaking, these matters belong to The Aetherium Sect and shouldn’t be disclosed, especially since this was Adrian Anson’s first official conversation with Thea Shaw.

But this matter had been bothering Adrian Anson for years, so he said, "That Miss Shea and her husband are our old clients, but they mostly consult us about feng shui issues. The only exception is a certain affair involving Miss Shea; she once wanted us to locate a missing acquaintance, but the information was incomplete, and we couldn’t deduce anything. It’s been many years, and she hasn’t really given up. I was just trying to persuade her earlier."

Thea Shaw asked, "Do you have a photo then?"

Adrian Anson shook his head, "If we had a photo, maybe we would have found the person a long time ago."

No photo, incomplete information; relying on superstitions to find someone is indeed difficult.

It turned out to be just a missing person case, but Thea Shaw remembered Miss Shea’s husband having an extremely ominous face, and she couldn’t help frowning and asking, "And what does her husband do?"

Adrian Anson paused, "You seem very interested in Miss Shea and her family. Could it be you knew them beforehand?"

"Just asking casually."

And so it was peculiar; perhaps it’s because they’re in the same field, talking to Adrian Anson was much smoother, almost as if they’d known each other for a while.

Adrian Anson couldn’t figure it out, but he still answered, "Miss Shea used to be a singer, but she withdrew from the music scene a long time ago. Her husband is a businessman."

A singer, huh!

No wonder her voice was so pleasant.

Unexpectedly met Adrian Anson at the hospital and ended up chatting with him. As Adrian Anson was leaving, he added Thea Shaw on WeChat.

He wasn’t worried about her stealing business; in Aethelgard, there are quite a few masters who aren’t part of The Aetherium Sect, and each has their own network and relationships.

The Aetherium Sect is regarded as one of the top, and they are not afraid of such things at all.

Adrian Anson added her because he had never met Thea Shaw before and never expected such a young fortune teller to emerge from Aethelgard. They’re all in the same business, so it’s good to establish a rapport.

Thea Shaw returned to the ward, and Zia Sutton and the others noticed her talking to Adrian Anson earlier. As she entered, she heard him speaking sarcastically, "Who’s that pretty boy in a suit?"

Thea Shaw: "Mind your own business."

Zia Sutton: "..."

Mrs. Sutton looked at the sibling duo bickering, feeling both amused and annoyed, "You really do have a nasty tongue, you’re just jealous he’s fairer than you, aren’t you?"

Zia Sutton protested, "I am not. I’m just curious about when she met those people."

Thea Shaw repeated, "Stay out of a fairy’s business!"

Zia Sutton, Mrs. Sutton: "..."

Seeing Thea Shaw becoming more relaxed and lively within the Sutton Family, Mrs. Sutton felt more relieved in her heart.

Perhaps this is Thea Shaw’s true nature, not always holding a serious demeanor, becoming increasingly charming.
