Your Gold Digger is Actually A True Heiress (Thalia) novel Chapter 115

Chapter 115 

Tom Malfoy cut an impressive figure–tall with broad shoulders, a narrow waist, and long legs. Dressed impeccably in designer wear with his handsome face arranged in a harmless smile, he looked every inch the gentleman. 

When he chose to play a part, no one would ever connect him with the psychopath who had violated half the criminal code. 

Having never met Tom before, when Thalia heard him call her name and noted his elegant attire and designer clothing, her first thought was that he might be a friend of one of her friends. 

Tom offered no introduction, merely regarding Thalia with a meaningful look. “Truly a beauty, indeed.” 

The woman beside him, Valeria Petrov, frowned slightly, a flash of jealousy crossing her eyes before quickly 

disappearing. 

She knew nothing about Tom’s vendetta against the Blackwood and Winters families, and as a suitable mistress, she never inquired about his other women. Asking such questions would be courting disaster. 

Valeria stood quietly at Tom’s side, discreetly appraising Thalia. 

Yes… the woman was genuinely beautiful–naturally so. Her fair skin and delicate features showed no signs of cosmetic intervention. Her figure was excellent too–slender with a tiny waist and long legs, thin but with curves in all the right places. 

Thalia hadn’t noticed Valeria’s scrutiny. 

She heard the man’s flippant remark and furrowed her brow. 

Something about this man made her deeply uncomfortable. 

The way he looked at her–like a predator eyeing its prey–was filled with predatory interest and amusement. 

Thalia asked again, this time with a hint of offended anger in her voice: “Who are you?” 

“Me?” Tom smiled without answering her question. “You’ll find out soon enough, Miss Winters. We’ll be seeing each other again.” 

How bizarre. 

Thalia ignored him and walked past to settle the bill at the counter. 

Lucy followed, unable to resist glancing back even as they were leaving the restaurant. “Thalia, was that your friend? He’s absolutely gorgeous! You rarely see men that handsome in real life!”

For some reason, Thalia felt inexplicably unsettled. 

That man had been distinctly odd, though she couldn’t quite pinpoint why. 

Thalia replied casually, “I don’t know him. He was behaving rather strangely–best to ignore him.” 

“Oh, right. I thought you might be friends.” 

December 31st, New Year’s Eve. 

Victoria had organized a gathering to ring in the New Year. 

The Shard, Britain’s tallest building at 310 meters (1,016 feet) with 95 floors, dominated London’s skyline. 

They were in the presidential suite of the Shangri–La Hotel, which occupied floors 34 to 52 of the building. The suite offered spectacular views of the Thames and the city’s glittering lights. 

Inside the suite, flowers, balloons, and streamers created a festive atmosphere. 

Victoria tossed her mink coat carelessly onto the sofa, wearing only a figure–hugging champagne–colored evening gown. She had done full makeup for the occasion and looked stunningly vibrant. 

“I must say, Sebastian made quite a shrewd decision when he bought into this place for his hotel chain,” she 

remarked 

Sebastian grunted. “As if I need your approval.” 

Victoria shot him a teasing glance. “Surprising, actually. Seems that thick skull of yours can occasionally produce decent ideas.” 

Several floors of the Shangri–La section were owned by Sebastian’s hospitality group, and they were currently in the presidential suite, which typically went for over £15,000 per night. 

Sebastian smirked. “Look who’s talking about thick skulls.” 

Victoria pulled a face at him. “If you can’t figure out who I’m referring to, that rather proves my point, doesn’t it?” 

The room was toasty warm, so Charlotte had also removed her coat. She walked to the sofa, picked up Victoria’s coat along with her own, and hung both garments up before turning back with a bright smile. “This really is the perfect spot for a New Year’s party–ideal for watching the fireworks and enjoying the view.” 

“Right? Brilliant choice for New Year’s Eve, wasn’t it?” Victoria grinned. 

Charlotte nodded with a smile. “Absolutely!”

“Hang on, why hasn’t Thalia arrived yet?” Victoria glanced toward the door and reached for her phone. “I’ll give her a ring.” 

As she spoke, the door opened. 

Victoria looked up with a smile. “I was just about to call you–bloody hell!” 

Instead of Thalia, Asher Blackwood entered. 

With Laurina Kensington. 

Victoria’s smile froze instantly, replaced by flaring anger. “Who invited them?” she demanded. 

Charlotte shook her head, clearly indicating she had nothing to do with it. 

Mason also claimed no knowledge. 

Sebastian cleared his throat awkwardly. “Well, you said we were having a New Year’s celebration. How could I not invite my best mate?” 

“Are you genuinely thick or just pretending?” Victoria exploded. “Have you somehow missed that he cheated on Thalia? He’s been photographed checking into hotels with this actress, and you invited him here? I organized this gathering specifically to cheer Thalia up, and you brought Asher along? What exactly were you thinking?” 

“What?” Sebastian looked completely baffled. “You never mentioned not to invite Asher! He’s been my best friend for over a decade…” 

Sebastian rubbed his nose and sighed. “Look, don’t get so worked up. They’ve broken up, that’s all. We’re all part of the same social circle–we’re bound to run into each other. Surely you’re not suggesting we cut ties with one of them forever just because they’re no longer together?” 

“Ha!” Victoria laughed sarcastically. “Why not? The Blackwood heir is well above my social grade anyway. Cutting ties works perfectly fine for me!” 

Seeing that Victoria was deadly serious, Sebastian began to panic. “Come off it, you’re being dramatic. It’s not that serious–let me explain…” 

“Shut it!” Victoria cut him off sharply. “Either they leave or I do!”
