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

Chapter 400: The Most Obedient One

Thea Shaw carefully looked at a few trending news articles.

What they were currently saying was that Ryan Sinclair has been taken for investigation, but the specific details haven’t leaked yet.

Being taken in for investigation, for people of their status, it probably wouldn’t be so high-profile unless there’s concrete evidence.

In other words, Florence Locke really figured out a way to bring Ryan Sinclair down.

Seeing the news, Thea Shaw felt a surge of satisfaction in her heart, and she slapped her thigh, "Serves him right!"

Landon Ford curled his lips and asked her, "You really hate Ryan Sinclair?"

Thea Shaw spoke earnestly, "Anyone normal would be disgusted with someone like him. You don’t hate him, do you?"

Landon Ford never argued with Thea Shaw over such trivial matters, he nodded, "I do hate him."

Unfortunately, the opponent fell into Thea Shaw and her mentor’s hands.

Thea Shaw remarked with satisfaction, "For a person like Ryan Sinclair, I’m not going to go to great lengths for Shirley Moss’s sake, but when something happens to him, it’s natural to revel in schadenfreude."

Just him having people take the fall for him like Shirley Moss—no one would stand on Ryan Sinclair’s side, right?

"With this incident, Aethelgard will surely be in turmoil," Landon Ford sighed, "I’ll be very busy moving forward."

The reason for his sigh was that once busy, he wouldn’t be able to see Thea Shaw.

Thea Shaw patted Landon Ford on the shoulder, "Landon, work well, and make some money."

Landon Ford: "..."

——

Thea Shaw returned home, unable to suppress her curiosity, she first called Florence Locke.

"Teacher, how did you find the opportunity to get Ryan Sinclair in?"

On Florence Locke’s end, it sounded a bit noisy, the environment was chaotic, and her voice was somewhat ethereal, "It can’t be said he’s in yet."

Florence Locke hardly used any kind words when describing Ryan Sinclair: "Like a centipede, dead but not stiff, even if he goes in, he’ll have ways to get out. At most, I can gather evidence to keep him in temporarily, the key now is to pry open that woman’s mouth."

The woman referred to the one who took the fall for Shirley Moss back in the day, the woman sent abroad.

"Did you find her?" Thea Shaw admired Florence Locke’s speed, "Teacher, your connections are impressive."

To be able to find such a hidden person.

"She seems to really love Ryan Sinclair," Florence Locke’s voice was tinged with an icy indifference over the phone, "Let’s see how far this pair of lovebirds can go."

Thea Shaw was a bit worried, "Will the Vanguard Group make a move against you?"

After all, the one behind this was Florence Locke.

Florence Locke chuckled softly, "No."

Hearing her confident laugh, Thea Shaw felt reassured.

Florence Locke wouldn’t fight a battle she wasn’t sure of, so this matter was as good as done.

With the online uproar, Thea Shaw just waited to watch the excitement; she hung up the phone and suddenly caught another piece of news amidst the flood of Vanguard Group reports.

Regina Shelby’s fan club mentioned they’ve suddenly lost contact with her.

Regina Shelby had a packed schedule these few days, so the response was quick when she couldn’t be reached, even her manager Jesse Jennings couldn’t contact her.

Originally, this would be a significant event, but the Vanguard Group’s issue was so massive, that not even Regina Shelby could compete with the impact of such a large conglomerate’s downfall. It took only a few hours for the news to come out, verified before being released, and only then did it slowly climb up to the bottom of trending topics.

Thea Shaw saw the news and couldn’t help but curl her lips into a smile.

Regina Shelby really was the most obedient among her current business associates.
