Villains Act Shamelessly: The Heiress was the Great National Master!

Chapter 487: Mrs. Seymour

After boarding the plane, Zia Sutton and Thea Shaw sat together, while Mr. Sutton sat on the other side.

Sitting next to Mr. Sutton was an elegant older lady dressed very stylishly.

Of course, most people in first class have good financial status.

She even recognized Mr. Sutton and greeted him with surprise once on the plane.

Through Mr. Sutton’s polite words, Thea Shaw learned about the woman’s identity.

She is the wife of the president of a local group in Fenmore, surnamed Seymour, and her family is also quite influential, a born noble.

Mrs. Seymour and Mr. Sutton had met several times at dinners; they weren’t very familiar but weren’t strangers enough to ignore each other, so during their small talk, Mrs. Seymour noticed Thea Shaw.

Mr. Sutton took the chance to introduce them.

Upon seeing her, Mrs. Seymour’s eyes lit up and she became more cordial, "I recently heard something about your family. Your daughter has grown up to be so poised and elegant, Justin, you’re really very fortunate."

Mr. Sutton smiled mildly, "Mrs. Seymour, your luck isn’t any less; I heard your son has already graduated?"

"Yes." When speaking of her son, Mrs. Seymour’s face was filled with delight, "He came back just a couple of days ago. By the way, how old is Thea?"

There was clearly a thought forming.

Unfortunately, Thea had already perked up at the mention of ’your son’.

A son? Mrs. Seymour has a son?

She carefully observed Mrs. Seymour’s face and hesitated to speak.

Noticing Thea’s expression, Mr. Sutton: "..."

Soon realizing something was amiss, he deflected Mrs. Seymour’s question: "Twenty, still young."

It was apparent she was trying to matchmake.

After all, it’s hard not to be impressed when seeing Thea Shaw for the first time.

It would be even better to have her as a daughter-in-law.

Hearing that Thea was indeed quite young and understanding Mr. Sutton’s implications, Mrs. Seymour smiled and tactfully didn’t pursue the topic further.

Zia, on the other hand, wasn’t too attentive, having started playing mini-games right after boarding; being close by, Thea didn’t mention Mrs. Seymour’s matters at first.

The plane soon took off, and partway through, everyone fell asleep. When they disembarked, Mr. Sutton and Mrs. Seymour exchanged a few simple words.

Mrs. Seymour invited them to visit her home in Fenmore when they had time, saying the view was splendid from her villa halfway up the mountain, with breathtaking scenery below, immensely enjoyable.

Mr. Sutton didn’t refuse, but neither did he agree immediately.

In the world of adults, many things need to be communicated subtly.

After Mrs. Seymour left, Thea approached Mr. Sutton: "Mrs. Seymour has a son, huh."

Mr. Sutton rubbed his temples sorely, "Yeah, so what did you deduce this time?"

"Isn’t it obvious? Otherwise, why would I ask?" Thea fluttered her eyes, "From her face, she only has a daughter, and there’s a sign of becoming widowed in middle age."

Mr. Sutton: "..."

The world is astonishing.

Mr. Sutton sighed, "Her husband is in good health, and she indeed only has one son, raised by her. If there were any anomalies, she would have noticed by now."

"Either the husband cheated and swapped the child, or she knows the truth herself; those are the only two possibilities."

Mr. Sutton said, "Mrs. Seymour isn’t like your uncle... What am I supposed to do as a father here?"

He couldn’t just confront Mrs. Seymour with such matters.

Thea’s uncle came back heartbroken once, and he is still healing in the USA.
