Villains Act Shamelessly: The Heiress was the Great National Master! Chapter 95: Dark Past

Florence Locke imdiately noticed the unusual atmosphere between her apprentice and the man in front of her.

She looked Landon Ford up and down, then whispered, "If he were born in Qirenia, he’d definitely be the Empress’s favorite."

Thea Shaw: "..."

She walked up to Landon Ford, tilting her head slightly to look at him, "Tell , how did you get the news so quickly?"

Landon Ford smirked and narrowed his eyes, "What do you think?"

Because he has money, there’s naturally no shortage of informants.

Thea Shaw had a sinking feeling, "How many people know about this now?"

Landon Ford: "Relax, it probably hasn’t reached your parents yet, but it’s close."

Setting off fireworks in Aethelgard was too sensational; since the crackdown, this was the first ti. The people living in the apartnts were all wealthy, and so knew Florence Locke, and they actually recognized Thea Shaw.

The impression from the Ford Family banquet was still fresh in their minds about this little fairy; who would’ve thought she’d be involved in sothing illegal, and just like that, the news spread.

Thea Shaw: "..."

Is it still possible for to leave this city in ti?

Florence Locke walked up from behind, unable to hide her curiosity: "Disciple, who is this?"

The word ’disciple’ made Landon Ford’s eyes flicker slightly, and the smirk on his lips took on a playful twist, "Disciple?"

"Uh—"

Thea Shaw suddenly rembered she’d said that her fortune-telling master had long since passed away, so now...

She had a quick wit, "This is my master, he’s been teaching music, chess, calligraphy, and painting!"

"Oh?"

Florence Locke, being quick on the uptake, also knew that her and Thea Shaw’s current relationship was hard to explain, so she smiled slightly at Landon Ford, "Yes, I’m her master. May I ask who you are?"

Thea Shaw imdiately replied, "A friend, my friend."

She was terrified that Landon Ford would say sothing inappropriate; her image as a simple and innocent future successor in front of her master was at stake!

She was Florence Locke’s most valued candidate to inherit the position of Great National Master. How could she be involved with any man?!

Landon Ford chuckled but didn’t refute Thea Shaw’s words.

Florence Locke gave them both a sowhat subtle look, then cleared her throat softly, "In that case, you should go back with your friend. I will head ho now."

Who would’ve thought that setting off one firework would get her caught; the State Preceptor Brightmoon was utterly disappointed with this modern system.

Why can’t the common people just have a little fun?

Landon Ford’s supercar only had two seats, so even if Thea Shaw wanted to, she couldn’t suggest taking her master ho.

However, Thea Shaw decided to go the extra mile.

She hailed a cab for Florence Locke, and as Florence got in, she reminded her, "Give a call once you get ho, master."

Florence Locke waved at her to show she understood.

Watching Florence Locke leave, Thea Shaw turned back to Landon Ford and earnestly asked, "If my parents sohow don’t find out about this, can you guarantee you won’t let it slip?"

Landon Ford didn’t take the opportunity to say anything, only replied, "I have no interest in saying anything, but I don’t think they won’t find out."

Considering Thea Shaw hadn’t gone ho yet, it’s impossible the Sutton Family hasn’t noticed.

Thea Shaw thought about the troubleso uncle still at ho and sighed heavily, dejectedly getting into Landon Ford’s car.

As a law-abiding citizen, she never imagined she’d one day get caught by the police, leaving a dark mark on her record.

How can she give her clients confidence reading their fortune in the future?
