Chapter 497: Press Conference of the Todd Family

At the Todd mansion, The hall was ablaze with light, as bright as daylight. The crystal chandelier in the hall reflected colorful lights, which shed on the fair and delicate face of a man, whose red lips resembled those of a bloodthirsty vampire.

He was wearing a white shirt, leaning back with one leg crossed over the other on the luxurious sofa. His one arm was outstretched and resting on the back of the sofa. In his other hand, he held a tall glass, half-filled with red wine. He swirled the glass gently, and the wine flowed under the light as if carrying a golden gleam.

The blonde female model sitting next to him was seductive, constantly enticing him, but the man remained indifferent.

The clear and hurried sound of high heels on the floor was heard, and in the next moment, a figure in a moon-white dress appeared on the spiral staircase.

The bloodstains on her clothes caught Davon’s eyes, pausing his actions, and he spoke with a hint of surprise. “Mom, what’s going on?”

His mother had never appeared before him in such a bedraggled state. These bloodstains… could she be injured somewhere?

Her son’s display of concern towards her made Thalia feel somewhat comforted, but when she glanced coldly at the model next to him, her face instantly turned cold and stern.

She walked from the stairway to the sofa with her arms crossed and gave the woman a slap. The woman, bewildered by the unexpected hit, gingerly touched her swollen face, glanced at Thalia, and then looked somewhat aggrievedly at Davon.

The man didn’t say a word, but signaled her to leave.

The space next to him was now empty, and Thalia strode and sat in his embrace. Davon, with his hand on the sofa, naturally embraced her waist, appearing quite intimate. If anyone saw this, they would undoubtedly find it odd.
