Chapter 114

In a bedroom on the second floor of a luxurious villa, men’s and women’s clothing lay scattered across the floor. A pair of torn black stockings hung haphazardly over the edge of the sofa.

Tom Malfoy reclined against the headboard, lazily drawing on a post–coital cigarette, his expression one of complete satisfaction.

Beside him, a young woman gazed at him through seductive eyes, still basking in the afterglow.

His phone vibrated. Tom took another drag of his cigarette before answering with unhurried composure.

“Sir,” Jerry reported respectfully, “the Winters family has just held a press conference announcing the termination of their engagement with the Blackwood family. Additionally, Twitter is ablaze with photos of Asher Blackwood entering a hotel with a famous actress, suggesting he’s been unfaithful.”

“Hmph.” Tom laughed derisively. “And here I thought he was some great romantic. Turns out he’s just another philanderer, exactly like his father.”

“About the Winters family…” Jerry began.

Tom lowered his eyes, considering for a moment. “Keep monitoring them. This could be a false breakup designed to

throw us off the scent.”

“Understood, sir.”

“Pay particular attention to Thalia Winters‘ movements. Report any developments to me immediately.”

“Yes, sir.”

After a day’s rest at home to collect herself, Thalia returned to work at Sinclair & Klein, resuming her normal

schedule.

members.

Thalia’s lips curved into a bitter smile. Apparently, dissolving the engagement did have its advantages–at least Malfoy wouldn’t be targeting her or her family anymore.

As she entered the law firm, colleagues greeted her warmly.

Thalia responded with polite smiles, her black mid–heeled court shoes clicking against the floor as she made her way to her office.
