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!”
