Your Gold Digger is Actually A True Heiress by Vera Fiore

Chapter 123

Thalia walked past without acknowledging them, her face expressionless.

After she had gone, Laurina nudged Asher’s arm. “What a coincidence! Imagine running into your ex on the same flight.”

Asher lowered his eyes and remained silent.

“Oh, look at you with that brooding expression. You’re impossible,” Laurina teased.

Early the next morning, Thalia arrived at the golf course with the head partner.

She was dressed in a white sports outfit with her hair in a high ponytail, looking youthful and vibrant. Langdon Johnson’s eyes lit up the moment he saw her.

The head partner made the introductions: “This is Mr. Johnson from Caresol Group. Mr. Johnson, may I present Thalia Winters, a solicitor from our firm.”

Thalia smiled politely. “Pleased to meet you, Mr. Johnson.”

That gentle smile made Langdon Johnson’s heart flutter.

“I had no idea your law firm employed such young and beautiful solicitors,” he remarked with a broad smile.

Thalia smiled without responding, while the head partner chuckled appreciatively.

“Do you play golf regularly, Miss Winters?” Langdon Johnson asked.

Thalia shook her head. “I only know a little. I wouldn’t say I’m an enthusiast.”

Sensing an opportunity, Johnson’s smile widened. “That’s no problem at all. I’d be happy to teach you.”

“What’s everyone discussing that’s so amusing?”

A male voice interrupted their conversation.

Thalia froze.

Asher approached, accompanied by another man.

Johnson immediately adopted a deferential tone, all traces of his earlier flirtatiousness vanishing. “Mr. Blackwood, you’re here to play golf as well? We were just discussing hobbies with Miss Winters here. I got a bit carried away

with the conversation. I hope we haven’t disturbed you?”

Thalia’s hands tensed at her sides as she raised her eyes to meet Asher’s gaze, addressing him with formal politeness: “Mr. Blackwood.”

The head partner rarely spent time at the firm and didn’t follow entertainment news. Though Laurina’s face seemed familiar to him, he was unaware of the rumored relationship between her and Asher, and had no idea that the CEO of Blackwood Industries standing before them was Thalia’s ex–boyfriend.
