Villains Act Shamelessly: The Heiress was the Great National Master!-Chapter 58: Discussing The Abbotts’ Affairs
Aurora Sutton nodded in realization.
"I’ll go see Mom after dinner."
Just as she said this, Mr. Sutton interjected, "Your mom is already resting."
It seemed too early for resting, and Aurora faintly sensed something, but she only nodded and continued to eat gracefully in silence.
Thea Shaw touched her chin, somewhat amazed.
She had just idly blurred Aurora Sutton’s features.
This kind of blurring was somewhat like drawing, selecting key features of the face, like the forehead, nose bridge, and earlobes, essentially simplifying them into a set of data, which when input into the Life Map that the Great National Master needed to comprehend, revealed this person’s complete fate.
Minor fate lines wouldn’t show, but Thea obtained a few major fate points.
Aurora Sutton’s mother would pass away early, and she would have a turbulent relationship, not the current one, but in the near future.
Yet, in the latter half of her life, she’d enjoy immense wealth, surpassing even the faces of both Mr. and Mrs. Sutton.
Given the current situation of the Sutton Family, even without considering Zia Sutton, handing the core of the Sutton Family to Aurora would still be insufficient for such fortune...
Thea speculated it probably had something to do with her biological parents.
Previously, the information on Landon Ford provided some key points, requiring Mr. Sutton to verify it himself, but it was vaguely apparent it was related to an Abbott family.
As she quietly ate, she thought, Aurora Sutton was to become a future wealthy woman, and maintaining a good relationship was never a loss.

The next day, Mr. Sutton, through Thea Shaw, invited Landon Ford to dinner.
Landon indeed agreed.
He even mentioned he was available that day as he would be on a business trip in a few days.
Mr. Sutton considered this and rescheduled several meetings to prepare to meet Landon Ford.
However, considering certain matters, Mr. Sutton didn’t bring Mrs. Sutton along, only Thea Shaw.
Before entering the room, he instructed Thea, "Thea, remember not to mention anything you hear today when you return home."
Discussions with Landon Ford would surely involve topics about the Abbott family, and Mr. Sutton wanted Thea to keep it to herself for the time being.
Of course, Thea nodded obediently.
Seeing her so gentle and obedient, Mr. Sutton felt comforted and patted Thea on the head.
He was gratified that even though his daughter had been raised outside for many years, she was still outstanding, gentle, and beautiful, and showed no inferiority upon returning to the Sutton family.
At the very least, his daughter grew up safe and sound.
The meeting place was a renowned Japanese restaurant, and it was difficult to make a reservation, taking Mr. Sutton considerable effort to secure one for that day.
He had heard that Landon Ford found the Japanese food here quite satisfactory, having visited several times.
This was no easy feat.
They arrived first, with Landon Ford following shortly after.
The Japanese-style room had tatami mats, where people typically kneeled, a habit not common in China, but this restaurant was traditional yet flexible with its rules.
Mr. Sutton and Thea were sitting cross-legged, covered with a thin blanket provided by the restaurant.
The chef was nearby, preparing everything fresh.
Landon Ford’s entrance added a powerful sense of pressure to the confined space with his tall figure. However, his stern but handsome brows eased upon seeing Thea, and he proactively greeted Mr. Sutton, "Uncle Sutton, Thea, good morning."
Mr. Sutton beamed, "Landon, you’re here? Please sit down, this Japanese restaurant is indeed quite good, I heard you like it here."
Although inquiring about habits might seem impolite, Landon Ford didn’t mind it from Mr. Sutton. He understood Mr. Sutton’s intention, that it was out of respect. As he sat down, his overwhelming presence softened, and he chuckled lightly, "Uncle Sutton, you’re very considerate."
