Villains Act Shamelessly: The Heiress was the Great National Master! Chapter 29: The Beginning of a Career
"I understand."
Lauren replied, then paused for a mont: "When will you have ti to co back and see ?"
She wasn’t worried that Thea, now with wealthy parents, wouldn’t acknowledge her; Thea wasn’t that type of person.
But with her daughter not around, sotis she just has peculiar thoughts.
Thea thought for a mont: "I haven’t really had any ti lately..."
She has changed too much, afraid that returning ho would let Lauren notice sothing, she needed ti to prepare an explanation.
"It’s a bit busy right now, they’ve arranged classes for here with teachers. When I have ti, I’ll co back. If you’re really missing , you could co to Aethelgard to find , isn’t my sister also in Aethelgard?"
This sister is Lauren’s biological daughter, Chloe.
Her relationship with Chloe is just average, mainly due to the large age gap. By the ti Chloe understood things, their parents suddenly brought ho a sister, she felt irritated.
Even though Thea looked like a cute little snow bun, Chloe didn’t like her.
However, she never purposely targeted her, they were just in different age groups, and couldn’t play together.
"Your sister isn’t busy with work, how could she have ti to care for ?"
Back then, Lauren had a car accident and wanted Chloe to co ho for a while, but at that ti Chloe’s company had an important major client, being the elite she was, successfully handling this client would directly lead to a promotion. It was a critical ti, so Chloe couldn’t co ho.
After knowing this, Thea took a break from school and returned ho.
Recently, when Thea returned to her biological parents, Chloe should have also known, but she hadn’t called.
Lauren smiled: "Never mind, I’ve got a small cold and don’t want to run around. We’ll talk when you’re on vacation."
Thea agreed: "Alright."
After hanging up the phone, Thea breathed a sigh of relief.
Even after thirty years, so things still linger in the heart.
Just like Mrs. Sutton’s reluctance about Aurora Sutton, Thea once stood from her own perspective thinking about a swapped life, seeing things differently.
Having gone through Won’s Respect Country, her perception of people and affairs has beco clearer.
She’s always regarded Lauren as her real mother, feeling distant from Mrs. Sutton, switching perspectives allows for understanding.

In the evening, Thea changed clothes and went with Mrs. Sutton to her best friend’s house.
On the way, Mrs. Sutton briefly ntioned that this best friend has always been on good terms with her, nad Yvette, and Yvette’s husband is now in business collaboration with Mr. Sutton.
Upon arriving at Yvette’s house, it was yet another luxurious ho with a villa, and inside Yvette was the only person. She wasn’t as pretty as Mrs. Sutton but had a fine charm and appeared especially kind.
Upon seeing Thea, Yvette’s eyes lit up: "Oh, so this is your Thea, yesterday my husband ca ho praising her, saying that the Sutton Family has brought out a little fairy, and now looking at her, she truly is!"
Mrs. Sutton felt joyful, couldn’t help but smile: "Where, it’s all exaggerated. Our Thea is just slightly pretty, you’re too kind."
Thea: Indeed.
Yvette: "How is that an exaggeration? Isn’t it the truth?"
Mrs. Sutton smiled at Thea and said: "You can call her Auntie Vaughn."
Thea obediently called out Auntie Vaughn, causing Yvette to be overjoyed, and after an "Oh," Mrs. Sutton asked: "Why is it just you here? Where’s your husband?"
"It’s not business matters lately."
When ntioning business, Yvette’s face visibly fell, "Seems like there’s so trouble at his company, he hasn’t had ti to co back. But never mind him, my niece is coming today, I’ve asked the kitchen to prepare a delicious al for you."
And as Thea noticed the shadow of lancholy engulfing Yvette’s face, she slightly smiled.
The beginning of her career had arrived.
