Chapter 215

Chapter 215 ▼ Chapter 215 Asher carried three more cardboard boxes over and placed them on the table in front of Thalia . " Seriously ? More boxes ? " Thalia stared at them incredulously . " I thought we were only dealing with two cases . That's five boxes of materials now . " Asher's lips curved into a playful smile , his eyes twinkling with mischief . " These three aren't case materials , " he said , his voice warm and inviting . " Take a look inside .

" Thalia shot him a skeptical look before leaning forward to inspect the boxes . They were sealed with packing tape and had shipping labels - clearly delivered packages . Asher helpfully handed her a small box cutter . " Packages ? " Thalia's brow furrowed in confusion . " What's in them ? " " Open them and find out , " he encouraged . Thalia sliced through the tape on one box and discovered an elegant designer case inside .

The case bore the logo of a high - end luxury brand , and understanding dawned on her face . She opened it to reveal a stunning white handbag . " What's this about ? " Thalia looked up at him . " A gift for you , " Asher replied , his smile widening . " Today's May Day . It's a day for celebrating spring and romance . I wanted to make sure you got something special , just like everyone else . " " … " Thalia was momentarily speechless . " We're not together , Asher .

You don't need to buy me gifts . " Standing before her with his hands casually tucked into his pockets , Asher's smile turned slightly roguish . " When you're trying to win someone back , gifts are practically mandatory . I'm not looking for any free passes here . " Thalia fell silent for a moment before letting out a soft sigh . " Asher , we can't go back to how things were , " she said , her tone serious as she met his gaze directly .

" After everything that's happened … we've both changed too much . There's no going back . " The window was open , allowing a gentle breeze to carry the scent of orchids mixed with the warmth of the evening air into the room . The bright overhead light cast the room in stark clarity . 19:32 Your Gold Digger is Actually A True Heiress Chapter 215 Asher stood before Thalia , his tall frame casting a shadow over her .

same place , waiting for you to turn around . " Thalia lowered her eyes , avoiding his intense gaze , saying nothing . After watching her silently for a moment , Asher took two deliberate steps closer . He bent down , placing his hands on either side of her , effectively trapping her in place as his eyes

Thalia's eyes darted away nervously , her voice barely audible : " Don't do this , Asher . " The sheer curtains billowed gently in the breeze before settling back into place . The fragrance of orchids hung in the air

She's nothing more than an acquaintance . " Keeping Thalia within his orbit , Asher's voice softened to an irresistible murmur : " Come back to me , Lia . " Thalia's heart raced , her resolve beginning to waver . Just then

Thalia pressed a finger to her lips , signaling Asher to stay quiet . After being pushed away , something dark and unreadable flickered across his face . He straightened up , watching the woman who now sat

, giving her an enigmatic half - smile . Edward's voice came through the speaker : " Thalia , weren't you supposed to

handle a couple of cases for him , " Thalia replied smoothly . " I went to discuss the details and just finished up . I'm heading home for dinner now . " " Alright , your aunt and I will wait for you , " Edward said . " I'll be there soon . " After hanging up , Thalia exhaled in relief . That was close . She'd almost lost her composure completely . When did Asher get so good at

on his little girl , huh ? It's barely seven , and they're already calling you home for dinner . " Ignoring his teasing , Thalia stood up and said firmly , " I need to go . Have someone send these to my office tomorrow . " Asher's expression turned unreadable

into her office to find five conspicuous cardboard boxes on the floor . Two large boxes contained the case materials she'd seen in Asher's office yesterday . The other three looked familiar as well
