Your Gold Digger is Actually A True Heiress by Vera Fiore

Chapter 182

Asher’s dark eyes were penetrating, his tone low. “Lia, you don’t understand men at all. Rupert looks at you with undisguised affection. Can’t you see his feelings for you?”

Thalia suddenly laughed.

Her eyes met Asher’s, filled with incredulity.

Thalia replied sarcastically: “Yes, I certainly don’t understand men. That’s why when my ex–boyfriend said he would never leave me unless I ended things, I believed him. Yet when we broke up, he mocked me, saying only a

child would believe such nonsense.”

Asher froze.

Weren’t they discussing Rupert?

How had the conversation suddenly shifted to him?

Those were the words he had spoken to Thalia during their breakup.

He knew how deeply he’d hurt her.

His own pain had been no less severe.

Uttering those cruel words had torn him apart inside.

The jealousy in Asher’s eyes gave way to profound sadness and helplessness.

He lowered his gaze, his expression somber. “Lia, I had my reasons for saying those things. They weren’t what I truly felt.”

Thalia gave a bitter laugh. “Which part? The part where you said you’d never leave me unless I ended things? No need to clarify–I already know that wasn’t sincere.”

“That’s not what I meant.” Asher stepped forward earnestly, his hands gripping Thalia’s shoulders. “You know that’s not the part I meant. Lia, you’re the only one in my heart. My feelings for you have never changed.”

“Enough,” Thalia’s eyes were cold. “It’s too late for all this. I have matters to attend to. Excuse me.”

With that, Thalia turned and opened her car door.

“Lia, listen to me…” Asher held the door open.

Thalia forcefully pushed him away and slammed the door shut.
