Your Gold Digger is Actually A True Heiress (Thalia) novel Chapter 59

Chapter 59 

Thalia had barely taken her seat at the restaurant when Drake followed, heading to the table beside 

theirs. 

The adjacent table was occupied by a couple who had just arrived and were preparing to order. 

Drake approached them and asked the man: “Would you mind giving up your table? I’m willing to pay.” 

The couple exchanged glances. 

The woman asked: “How much are you offering?” 

Drake replied: “Would five thousand pounds be sufficient?” 

The woman’s eyes widened slightly. “Are you serious?” 

“Absolutely.” Drake opened his phone. “Show me your payment details, and I’ll transfer it now.” 

The woman’s eyes lit up as she immediately displayed her payment app. 

After confirming the transaction had gone through, she happily left with her boyfriend. 

Drake smiled in Thalia’s direction, pulled out a chair, and sat down, leisurely pouring himself a cup of tea. 

Mason watched the entire scene in disbelief. 

Did that really just work? 

He glanced between Thalia and Drake. 

Eventually, he moved to Drake’s table and sat across from him. 

Thalia had always loved several signature dishes at Clos Maggiore. 

Drake deliberately sitting next to them was clearly meant to unsettle her. In the past, when she had still cared about him, such behavior would have ruined her meal completely. 

But times had changed. 

She no longer cared about him.

She could perfectly well treat Drake as if he were invisible. 

Thalia finished ordering and asked for a chilled drink as well. 

When the drink arrived, Drake suddenly spoke up: “Your period is due soon. You shouldn’t have cold 

drinks.” 

Thalia mentally rolled her eyes, picked up her glass, and took a few sips. Her eyes crinkled with 

satisfaction. 

She turned to Asher and said: “It’s been ages since I’ve had this. Still tastes the same as always. Asher, would you like to try?” 

When she looked at Asher, her eyes sparkled with affection, her face wearing a sweet smile that seemed to make even the air around them feel sugary. 

Asher took the glass and drank from the same straw Thalia had used. 

Their gestures and mannerisms were completely natural, without a hint of awkwardness. 

Seeing this, Mason understood everything. 

This was clearly how Thalia and Asher normally interacted. Their affection was genuine, not some performance. 

Which meant Drake was… 

He glanced discreetly at the man sitting across from him. 

Drake’s jaw was clenched tight, his eyes fixed intently on Thalia. His gaze contained both fury and a trace 

of hurt. 

Yet Thalia hadn’t spared him even a sideways glance. 

Drake’s knuckles had turned white as he gripped his teacup. Mason worried he might crush it at any 

moment. 

Mason inwardly sighed. 

Buddy, why are you doing this to yourself? 

“Have you ordered yet?” Mason attempted to divert Drake’s attention.

But Drake seemed not to hear him, still staring at Thalia, offering no response. 

Mason shook his head helplessly and took out his phone to scan the menu QR code. 

Meanwhile, all of Thalia’s dishes had arrived. 

Drake frowned as he spotted the seafood on their table. “Aren’t you allergic to seafood? Why are you 

ordering it?” 

Thalia ignored him completely, savoring a prawn that Asher had peeled for her, dipping it in sauce with evident enjoyment. 

Mason awkwardly cleared his throat before cautiously suggesting: “Drake, is it possible that… well… Thalia isn’t actually allergic to seafood? Maybe she only avoided ordering it when dining with you because of your allergy.” 

Drake suddenly turned to him. “What did you say?” 

Mason repeated himself. “Thalia isn’t allergic to seafood. When she was with you, she avoided it because of your allergy.” 

“How do you know that?” 

“I saw her once having dinner with colleagues. They ordered tons of seafood…” 

Drake pressed his lips into a thin line, disbelief flashing in his eyes. “Really?” 

Mason shrugged. “Why would I make that up?” 

Drake felt a bitter ache in his heart. 

He had never known this about her! 

Drake watched as Thalia took a bite of seared scallop, her eyes crinkling with delight. “So I was telling you, I received the favorable verdict yesterday. It was such a complex case–the evidence alone filled more than five hundred pages.” 

Asher listened attentively, his hands busy preparing a lobster tail for her, his expression gentle. “What type of case was it?” 

“A defamation lawsuit. We represented the plaintiff,” Thalia took a sip of her drink. “Asher, you wouldn’t believe how difficult it was to gather evidence. The client’s initial documentation was woefully incomplete. I spent over a month helping them collect everything we needed.”

“Over a month? Wasn’t that right before our engagement?” Asher placed the perfectly prepared lobster on Thalia’s plate. “That must have been exhausting.” 

“Yes, exactly during that time.” Thalia added a touch of drawn butter. “It was somewhat tiring, but receiving the favorable verdict made all the effort worthwhile.” 

Her face brightened as she took out her phone. “Oh, by the way, my client presented me with a thank–you plaque, Look.” 

Thalia enthusiastically opened her photo gallery, scrolling to find pictures of the plaque, her eyes sparkling. “It’s the first time I’ve ever received one from a client.” 

She looked as delighted as a child who had received a gold star in nursery school, her clear, beautiful eyes shining as she awaited praise. 

Asher gazed at her with undisguised affection, his deep voice warm with tenderness. “My brilliant barrister, aren’t you remarkable?” 

“Oh, stop,” Thalia’s eyes twinkled mischievously. “I’m only moderately impressive.” 

Drake watched this exchange with a tightness in his chest, his back stiffening. 

He had previously assumed theirs was merely a business arrangement–a marriage of convenience -without genuine feeling. He had believed that if he changed his ways, he would still have a good chance 

of winning Thalia back. 

But now, he realized how wrong he’d been. 

They were completely like a couple deeply in love! 

Back in New York, Thalia had sometimes shared details about her work with him too. 

At the time, he had found it amusing. 

He had told her that her entire month’s salary as a lawyer was less than what he spent on a single dinner 

and drinks with friends. 

Little had he known that she came from enormous wealth and had chosen to work simply to experience 

life and realize her own value! 

When Thalia spoke to Asher about her work, her eyes shone brilliantly, as if her entire being radiated an alluring light, like a dazzling jewel–she seemed completely transformed.

Unfortunately, this jewel was no longer his. 

Watching Thalia and Asher’s intimate conversation, seeing them so comfortable and happy together, Drake was consumed with jealousy. 

These everyday moments–she should have been sharing them with him! 

Her joys and sorrows should only be shared with him.
