Your Gold Digger is Actually A True Heiress by Vera Fiore

Chapter 220 Chapter 220 " Once I overheard classmates talking badly about Annika behind her back, and I got into a big argument with them. My kindness to her was genuine - it wasn't just to make myself look better ... " Lucia buried her face in her hands, her shoulders trembling as she cried. Thalia didn't know how to comfort her and simply patted her back gently. "Maybe I really did make a mistake, " Lucia choked out. " Annika was so sensitive and insecure.

I should have considered her pride the future..." After crying for a while, Lucia's eyes were red when they reached her home. The car stopped. Lucia wiped her tears. "Thank you, Thalia . I can never repay you for saving my life. If you ever need anything please don't hesitate to ask. " Thalia replied, "I won't be shy about it.

"Thalia sighed. "You need to be more careful about who you befriend in , "Thalia had just left Lucia's place when the receptionist at her firm told her Asher had arrived. The moment she pushed open her office door, Asher jumped to his feet and rushed over, his expression worried as he examined her carefully from head to toe. "Lia, are you okay? I heard you got into a fight last night. Are you hurt?" Thalia stood still, giving Asher a curious look. "Who told you that?" Concern filled his eyes. " A friend at the police station.

"Thalia's expression was unreadable." Then you should know it was Lucia who was drugged. Those men were targeting her, not me. I just helped save her." "I know, " Asher said, visibly relieved to see Thalia unharmed. "I heard Lucia is fine and all the suspects have been arrested. "Thalia nodded. "I'm fine too. With Alana around, those men didn't stand a chance. " " I'm glad you're okay. "Just as Asher finished speaking, his phone rang. He answered. "I'll be right back.

"After hanging up, Asher told Thalia," Lia, I bought shealth supplements for you. Remember to take them. I need to get back to the office to handle something, so I'll head out now." Thalia glanced at the colorful , elegant gift boxes piled on her desk. She felt slightly exasperated. "I'm not injured. Why buy so many supplements?" "You don't need to be injured to take them, " Asher said, gently patting her head.

"Lia, next time, please don't put yourself in danger like that." Thalia pressed her lips together, saying nothing . Asher left. Thalia remained standing there, lost in thought. The moment his broad palm had gently touched her head, her heart had skipped a beat. It had hern a long tsure they'd shared such intimacy That afternoon. Thalia received a call from Trump Ashcroft, who wanted to meet about the divorce case.

Trump and Margaret's divorce hearing was scheduled in a few days, Thalia had made thorough preparations. Trump had been discharged from the hospital. He and Margaret were now living separately, with Trump renting a small apartment. Thalia had just stepped out of her car at the apartment building when she saw a man approaching. As he ccloser, Thalia recognized Drake Ashcroft.

He was wearing cheap clothes and shoes worth about a hundred dollars, had removed his expensive watch, and his hair was messy rather than slicked back with gel as before . His unshaven face suggested he hadn't groomed himself for days. He looked completely disheveled. When Drake spotted Thalia, his eyes lit up briefly before his expression changed and his brows furrowed. Alana quickly stepped in front of Thalia, shielding her. Drake looked angry.

"Thalia, you're representing my parents in their divorce?" Thalia faced him fearlessly. " Yes. " Drake frowned. "You can't represent them. Transfer the case to someone else immediately. "Thalia scoffed." On what grounds?" Drake's eyes widened in anger as he snarled, "My family is already bankrupt, and now you want my parents to divorce? Will you only be happy when my family is completely destroyed?" Thalia looked at Drake coldly. "You've got it wrong.

I'm not the one who wants your parents to divorce. Your mother wants the divorce, but your father doesn't. I'm representing this divorce case to prevent your parents from getting divorced. " Drake was momentarily stunned "What did you say? " " I've made myself very clear. "" Are you lying to me?" Drake looked suspicious. " My mother said you encouraged them to divorce." Thalia's lips curved into a mocking smile as she crossed her arms, looking at Drake with amusement. "Hah.

"Thalia laughed derisively. "Your mother said this, your mother said that. Drake, how old are you? You're constantly quoting your mother. Are you a mama's boy?" Drake's face darkened. "Stick to the facts. Why are you insulting me?" Thalia snorted and walked past Drake toward the apartment building. "I don't have tfor this nonsense." "Thalia, are you really trying to prevent their divorce?" Drake called out behind her. Thalia ignored him and entered the building.

Drake followed. "Thalia, please don't let them divorce." Chapter 220 Thalia looked at Drake as if he were an idiot. " Don't worry. Margaret wants a divorce, and I'm determined not to give her what she wants Drake found something strange about Thalia's response. Just then, the elevator doors opened. Thalia and Alana stepped in, and Drake followed. Thalia remained noncommittal. " I'll go up with you. My father lives alone now, and I Theto check on him.

"They arrived at Trump's apartment. " What are you doing here?" Trump looked displeased to see his Drake said, " Dad, you haven't been hfor a while. I cto see you. If you don't want a divorce, why not go home?" Trump replied, "Your mother is constantly unreasonable. I don't want to argue with her. Out of sight, out of mind. " Drake protested, " Mom's just tough on the outside but soft on the inside. You've been married for so many years - don't you understand her ?

|| || 'It's precisely because I understand her that I know she genuinely wants a divorce. She wants to abandon you andto live an easier life.

How can you think that? Mom's not that kind of person. "Drake looked indignant. "Mom toldshe wants a divorce because you had a mistress." Drake turned to Thalia." Thalia, since you're my father's lawyer, why did you send evidence of my father's affair to my mother?

Mom said you sent her those photos , which is why she wants a divorce.

And you still claim you're not encouraging their divorce?" Hearing this, this Trump shot Thalia a sharp look You sent her evidence of my affair? "Thalia let out a dismissive laugh." Drake, use that pig brain of yours and think. If I didn't want them to divorce, why would I send evidence that damages my client's case to the opposing party?" Thalia's eyes were scornful.

"Your mother had those photos investigated herself. She claimed L, sent them to smear my reputation, make you hatet me." Drake frowned client to distreacause my . "You make a good point . " Thalia's lips curved into a mocking smile." Huh, you believe everything your mother says. If you're so obedient to her, why didn't you marry Sienna ? " ( 19) (1)
