Chapter 117

The next day–New Year’s Day.

Thalia returned to the Winters Estate for a visit.

Victoria and Randolph were both there.

As soon as Thalia entered. Victoria greeted her with a smile. “Thalia, you’re back! We’re just about damn for lunch. Freshen up first?”

Thalia had been hungover from the previous night and hadn’t woken until eleven that morning. She’d quickly showered, changed, and driven home, arriving just in time for lunch.

Lucy came running over in her little leather shoes and hugged Thalia’s legs. “Thalia!”

Thalia smiled warmly as she pulled out a beautifully wrapped gift from her bag and handed it to Lucy. “Lucy, Happy New Year, darling.”

The little girl accepted the gift with a sweet smile and planted a noisy kiss on Thalia’s cheek.

Randolph handed her a gift bag. “Your New Year’s present. Open it and see.”

Thalia took it, puzzled, and looked inside.

It contained a key and property documents.

Randolph spoke matter–of–factly: “Thalia, this flat is very close to Sinclair & Klein–convenient for work. I know you young people enjoy your New Year celebrations. This is my New Year’s gift to you. The car was Victoria’s choice–it’s in the garage. After lunch, you can go and have a look.”

Thalia’s eyes warmed with emotion, a wave of gratitude washing over her. “Thank you, Dad. Thank you, Victoria.”

She accepted their thoughtful gift with genuine appreciation.

After lunch, Thalia casually checked her phone and noticed a WhatsApp friend request.

Her heart suddenly tightened.

She instinctively held her breath as she opened it, only for disappointment to flood through her.

It wasn’t from Asher.

Drake, whom she had long since blocked and deleted, had created a new account to contact her.
