Villains Act Shamelessly: The Heiress was the Great National Master!-Chapter 294: There Really Are Immortals in This World

The lively girl almost had an accident, and Thea Shaw felt relieved for Celia Chambers.

Just a couple of days ago, she had harsh words with Iris Knight, and unexpectedly, she really listened.

At least for now, Thea Shaw hasn’t seen any movements from the Sinclair Family.

Of course, just because her head’s a bit off doesn’t mean Silas Sinclair’s is.

Thea Shaw knows by now that Silas Sinclair doesn’t have a say in the Sinclair Family; it’s his older brother who calls the shots. Let alone offending the Ford Family, even wanting to deal with the Sutton Family, the Sinclairs wouldn’t just let him go nuts.

For a moment, Thea Shaw felt sorry for Iris Knight. You might call her a femme fatale, but she’s not quite there.

Among the men of high status, besides Arlo, the rest just have nice-sounding titles.

Thea Shaw continues to eat, drink, and play as she should. The impact of Celia Chambers’ incident quickly minimized, and once Zia Sutton recovered a bit, he stayed with Celia Chambers.

It seems that ever since last time, his mind has cleared up a lot. He liked Celia Chambers from the start, and now that she’s affected by these events, he’s afraid she’ll have some bad thoughts, so he stays by her side. Occasionally, Aurora Sutton would bring Celia Chambers back to the Sutton Family for some afternoon tea with Thea Shaw.

Every time this happens, Zia Sutton would notice that Celia Chambers looks particularly happy watching Thea Shaw.

Time quickly flew to the end of the month, and the entertainment circle eventually had news even more shocking than Clara Tate’s secret marriage and divorce.

A famous director got into trouble, and it was no small matter. Like pulling up a radish and bringing out the dirt, he was caught using drugs along with several stars present, including a prominent scriptwriter of a current TV drama he was directing.

Yes, it’s the one Delia Darden was acting in.

People were arrested first, and although the news hasn’t fully broken out, several marketing accounts have already leaked it to draw traffic.

If the marketing accounts know, those in the industry naturally do as well.

At the time, Delia Darden was recording a variety show, Marcus Lynch was accompanying her, and when the news came, Delia was just applying lipstick, which dropped to the floor.

She was dumbfounded.

"Did something really happen?!"

Marcus Lynch was also incredulous: "It happened just like that... Could she have been the one who reported it?"

"..." Delia Darden couldn’t help but say, "How could she know the time of the drug use? They say it was busted at home, but who reported it with such accuracy?"

The entire variety show’s crew was gossiping, and everyone lost interest in the next television recording.

Delia Darden and Marcus Lynch carefully read the news, stating the director was having a drug party at home, which is a serious crime. There’s basically no hope for his future, dragging down two A-list stars as well, making it all very sensational.

One of them was the screenwriter for their drama.

Delia Darden and Marcus Lynch stared at each other, with people being arrested, and the drama could possibly be pulled off the air mid-season.

The impact of this is huge; the drama’s future promotions are likely scrapped.

Delia Darden thought for a moment, suddenly took a deep breath, and stood up: "I’m planning to retire from the circle in a few days, and return home to raise pigs."

"Don’t." Marcus Lynch advised, "The drama hasn’t been pulled yet. Don’t you want to wait and see? Even if you retire, don’t go back to farming pigs..."

Delia Darden sighed and said, "I believe it now. There truly are mystics in this world. Everything she said, I believe."
