Your Gold Digger is Actually A True Heiress (Thalia) novel Chapter 147

Chapter 147 

Chapter 147 

This day had been long awaited by Asher. 

With Malfoy finally within his grasp, he could at last capture both Malfoy and his subordinates in one fell swoop. 

Outside, many of his men lay in wait–not just snipers, but also mercenaries he had urgently brought in from abroad overnight. 

When Asher had arrived, he’d carefully assessed the situation and confirmed his earlier prediction: Malfoy had few resources left in Britain. 

The men here represented almost all of his remaining British operation. 

According to the rescue plan Asher had formulated the previous night, if all went smoothly, he could both save Thalia and capture Malfoy along with all his British associates. 

However, this plan required him to put himself at risk. If it failed, neither he nor Thalia would survive. 

Now, they were on the verge of success. 

Then suddenly, an unexpected complication arose. 

Asher hadn’t anticipated that Malfoy would send men to kidnap Lucy… 

“Save Lucy… Asher, please save Lucy…” 

Thalia was still cradled in Asher’s arms. She clutched his collar desperately, her eyes filled with pleading. 

Asher’s eyes darkened with conflict. 

He had waited so long for this opportunity. 

They were in Harwich, on England’s eastern coast in Essex. 

The Netherlands lay just across the North Sea. 

The helicopter hovered before them. If Malfoy escaped to his Dutch stronghold now, he would have two options–take a sea route to the Netherlands and then return to Russia, or fly directly to the Netherlands before returning to his Russian headquarters. With Malfoy’s drug and arms trafficking operations in the Netherlands, and his main base in Russia, dealing with him in the future would be nearly impossible. 

But with Lucy as a hostage, Asher had to consider his options carefully. 

Asher lowered his gaze to meet Thalia’s imploring eyes, his heart aching.

In the helicopter, Lucy continued to cry and struggle. 

“Sister… please… help me, sister…” her sobs carried across to them. 

Malfoy was in no hurry. He simply waited, smiling at them. 

He knew the snipers outside were using red dot scopes, These enhanced accuracy even when the target was mording, allowing for precise headshots regardless of how the target might weave or dodge. 

In this situation, Malfoy and his men had virtually no chance of escape, 

No matter how quickly they moved, they couldn’t evade bullets from the red dot scopes, 

Malfoy looked at Asher with casual confidence. 

He wasn’t afraid to die. 

He was curious about Asher’s choice. In his view, sacrificing one little girl to eliminate a mortal enemy and his entire operation would be an easy decision. He wouldn’t hesitate to abandon the child. 

In his eyes, human life held no precious value worthy of protection. 

After a moment, Asher said: “Release Lucy, and I’ll let you go. But your men must stay behind.” 

This answer seemed to both surprise Malfoy and yet align with his expectations. 

Malfoy curved his lips into a smile and pointed at Jerry. “I’m taking him with me.” 

Jerry had been with him for many years, his most capable assistant and the most skilled operative after Malfoy himself. 

With Jerry at his side, many tasks could be accomplished efficiently without Malfoy’s direct involvement. Naturally, Malfoy was reluctant to abandon such a valuable subordinate. 

Asher’s voice was firm. “Not a chance.” 

Hearing this, Malfoy let out a cold snort. “Fine by me. I don’t mind dropping this little girl.” 

The hands clutching Asher’s collar tightened further. Asher’s lips set in a rigid line. 

After a moment, he conceded. “All right.” 

“To the roof,” Malfoy said, then strode toward the staircase with long steps. 

It was just five more floors to the rooftop. 

The helicopter ascended alongside them, heading for the roof.

Asher carried Thalia and followed. 

In his arms, Thalia continued to grip Asher’s shirt tightly, her eyes filled with tension and worry. 

Asher’s gaze softened as he reassured her gently: “Don’t be afraid, Lia. Your sister will be safe.” 

Thalia’s hands trembled as they clutched his shirt. 

When people are extremely nervous and frightened, they cannot control their body’s instinctive reactions. 

When Thalia had been fighting Malfoy, she had feared nothing, not even death. 

But the moment she saw Lucy, her blood froze in an instant. 

She could face her own death, but she couldn’t bear to watch her young sister being brutally killed before her eyes 

Asher reassured her again: “Don’t worry, Lia.” 

On the rooftop. 

The helicopter had landed. 

Lucy was still in the grip of the muscular, imposing man. 

As they moved, the snipers hidden in the surrounding buildings adjusted their positions accordingly. 

Fortunately, the snipers were positioned in the tallest building in the area. Even though Malfoy’s group had ascended five more floors, the snipers still maintained their tactical advantage, finding optimal shooting positions. 

Seeing the red dots reappear on his men’s foreheads, Malfoy remained unperturbed. 

He moved toward the helicopter. 

Asher approached to take the hostage. 

Just as Malfoy boarded the helicopter and Asher was about to reach Lucy, a bullet whizzed through the air. 

The bullet struck the helicopter’s fuselage with a loud bang. 

This unexpected development disrupted the plan. Both Asher and the man holding Lucy instinctively retreated, widening the distance between them. 

“Police! Nobody move!” In an instant, several officers appeared at the rooftop entrance. 

Malfoy’s expression darkened severely. 

“You called the bloody police?” Malfoy snapped, glaring at Asher.

Asher was equally startled. 

“I didn’t,” he replied. 

This was exactly the scenario he had feared most, and now it was unfolding… 

“Asher, since you’ve broken our agreement, you can hardly blame me for what happens next,” Malfoy said as he closed the helicopter door. 

Everything happened so quickly that Asher had no time to intervene before Malfoy sealed the door. 

The officers fired several shots at the helicopter, but ordinary handgun bullets had no effect on Malfoy’s specially reinforced bulletproof aircraft. 

After several shots, the helicopter remained completely undamaged. 

As the helicopter took off, the police continued firing, to no avail. 

“No! We can’t let him leave–Lucy’s still with him!” Thalia cried out in panic, seeing that Malfoy hadn’t released her 

sister. 

Asher hadn’t anticipated the police intervention. 

How had this happened? 

The previous evening, he had specifically returned to the Blackwood residence to prevent exactly this scenario. He had coordinated with both families and informed the police that Thalia had been found. 

Before leaving, he had repeatedly emphasized to both families that he could rescue Thalia himself and warned them not to contact the police, which would jeopardize his plan. 

Yet now… 

As the helicopter took off, the snipers could see that the little girl was still in Malfoy’s custody. Without Asher’s order. they didn’t dare to fire. 

Seeing Malfoy escaping with Lucy, Thalia broke free from Asher’s arms and ran a few steps in desperate pursuit. 

But it was futile. 

“How could this happen? Why did he suddenly change his mind?” Thalia could only watch helplessly as Malfoy flew farther away with Lucy.
