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

Chapter 409: Mark Moody

If it were anyone else, a woman meeting alone, it might mean something else.

But no matter how Adrian Anson thought about it now, he sensed a hint of killing intent.

Yes, if he were framed, he could only bring killing intent with him.

Adrian Anson thought for a moment and still agreed.

Of course, to avoid suspicion, the place they chose for their meeting was a discreet club, a location recommended by Adrian Anson.

— The payment was also made by Adrian Anson.

When he arrived in the private room, Adrian Anson was the first to get there.

The environment in this private room was tranquil, perfect for conversation. Yet, if anything were to happen, it would be hard to find help.

Adrian Anson saw Thea Shaw come alone and couldn’t help but say, "You meet me alone, aren’t you afraid I’ll tell the elders within the sect about this?"

"So what if you do? Do you all plan on silencing me?"

Thea Shaw suspected it was people from The Aetherium Sect who did it, and now she dared to meet Adrian Anson. No matter what Adrian Anson said, from The Aetherium Sect’s perspective, Thea Shaw was already an adversary.

Thea Shaw slowly sat down and then said, "Your courage to meet me means you aren’t involved in these matters, and you’re unsure exactly who is behind it, so you came to meet me, correct?"

Adrian Anson sighed: "What you say is correct."

He knew some people had issues, but wasn’t sure who exactly, nor was he sure how the sect internally perceived it.

Adrian Anson belonged to the privileged core of The Aetherium Sect, nurtured since childhood, dealing with core figures of the sect, yet he hadn’t come into contact with the sect’s core activities himself.

Because he was too young.

He vaguely had suspicions but dared not tear through that thin veil.

Thea Shaw said, "Logically, I wouldn’t drag the hatred onto The Aetherium Sect, but it’s likely that someone from the sect is targeting me, so now I need to look for clues within The Aetherium Sect."

Thea Shaw took out Regina Shelby’s photo: "You know Regina Shelby, right? She’s now declared dead by outsiders, and I’m also a suspect. Before me, do you know which person from The Aetherium Sect contacted Regina Shelby?"

Adrian Anson looked at Regina Shelby’s photo, and some kind of suspicion arose within him.

He sighed and said, "Let me check the internal records."

He then took out documents and began flipping through sect files.

For a sect like theirs, there were modern handling methods, where different customers are marked by who’s responsible.

Unless a customer specifically requests several masters, this prevents others within from acting only to find that the opponent is another sect member’s customer, avoiding misunderstandings.

If Regina Shelby had been seen by someone, it would be recorded in the records.

Although these records weren’t particularly secret, when Adrian Anson saw the name, he hesitated whether to tell Thea Shaw.

After a while, Adrian Anson said, "Is it inappropriate for me to tell you?"

Thea Shaw glanced at the phone: "What’s inappropriate? You don’t need to do anything else, you just need to tell me who this person is."

As for what the other person did, whether they framed Thea Shaw, it was all a matter without evidence.

Adrian Anson was merely divulging a name. Did he do anything wrong?

Adrian Anson pursed his lips.

Indeed, the person was unfamiliar to him, and if they hadn’t done anything, he was merely providing Thea Shaw a name.

Then Adrian Anson opened his mouth to say: "The person is Mark Moody."
