Chapter 165
Chapter 165 That night , Thalia couldn't sleep . The audio recording kept echoing in her mind . Grace's backer was Tom Malfoy . Thalia wasn't sure how many Blackwood family secrets Grace knew , being their adopted daughter . She hadn't previously asked Asher whether Grace held any position in the Blackwood Group . If Grace did work at Blackwood Group and had access to business secrets that she then leaked to Tom Malfoy , it could be extremely damaging to the company .
Additionally , Tom Malfoy hated the Blackwood family . Everything he had done previously was to exact revenge on Asher . Since Grace was infatuated with Asher , why would she help Tom Malfoy and position herself against Asher ? This was something Thalia couldn't fathom . Perhaps Tom Malfoy had promised her something ? Pondering these questions , Thalia tossed and turned in bed , unable to sleep until the first light of dawn appeared , when drowsiness finally overcame her .
When she awoke , it was already afternoon . Thalia sat up in bed and glanced at the time on her phone : . She irritably ran her fingers through her hair , finally sighing in resignation . Yesterday at the café , after the private investigator had given her the physical photos , he had also sent her digital copies of the evidence . After freshening up , Thalia forwarded the digital evidence from the investigator to Asher's email .
She told herself , help him out - after all , he rescued Lucy , and at their engagement party , he had even taken a knife for her . No matter what , she couldn't just stand by if he was in danger . Grace alone might not be enough to threaten Asher , but with Tom Malfoy behind her , that was a different story . 16:48 Your Gold Digger is Actually A True Heiress 96.5 % Chapter 165 Thalia was well aware of how powerful Tom Malfoy was in Russia . Asher considered Tom Malfoy a formidable opponent .
If Grace continued to act as an inside informant for Tom Malfoy against the Blackwood family , not only would Blackwood Group be impacted , but Asher himself might also be in danger . After sending the email , Thalia noticed a new message in her inbox . It was from the person she had asked to help investigate Ashcroft Group's business records . The email was titled " Ashcroft Group Business Records . " Thalia opened the email and quickly scrolled through the document .
When she saw the changes in Ashcroft Group's equity and the detailed information about the controlling shareholder , Thalia read it over several times , recalling what Drake had said about Arno Jones , Tom Malfoy's subordinate , investing in Ashcroft Group . Her brow furrowed . The document showed that the controlling shareholder was an overseas investment company , not Arno Jones personally . Could this company also be controlled by Arno Jones ?
Arno Jones had already been arrested , and his companies in the UK had been seized . The overseas company was beyond the reach of British authorities , which was fortunate for Drake . Just then , her computer notified her of a new email . Thalia opened it and paused . It was a reply from Asher . In his email , Asher said they had already discovered Grace's close association with Drake and that Grace was working for Tom Malfoy . Thalia breathed a sigh of relief . Good that they knew .
Thalia typed a long message in response but hesitated before sending it . How Asher would deal with Grace was his business . Grace was the Blackwood family's adopted daughter , Asher's sister , and more importantly , she harboured inappropriate feelings for Asher . Since Asher had already discovered so much , knowing that Grace was working for Tom Malfoy , he must also have realized Grace's feelings for him .
16:48 Your Gold Digger is Actually A True Heiress 96.6 % Chapter 165 Would he be lenient ? After all , Grace had been his sister for over a decade . Would he forgive her if she cried ? Thalia suddenly felt a wave of irritation . She deleted what she had written , character by character . Enough . She had done what she needed to do . How Asher would handle Grace was no longer her concern . Today was Saturday , so Thalia didn't need to go to the office .
She drank a glass of milk and ate a sandwich to tide herself over . The restlessness in her heart remained undiminished . Seeing that the weather outside was pleasant , Thalia quickly got ready and went out to clear her mind . Near Thalia's villa was a large park , which she reached on foot . The park was crowded on the weekend , with many parents bringing their children out to play . Evergreen trees created a lush green landscape , verdant and thriving .
Tulips and roses bloomed in competition , a stunning display of beauty . Many people were picnicking on the lawn , and children were flying kites . Thalia strolled across the grass , watching these everyday scenes of life , and her unease began to dissipate . After walking aimlessly for about fifteen minutes , Thalia sat down to rest on a wooden bench under a large tree . Suddenly , she heard the intermittent sound of a child crying .
Thalia followed the sound and discovered a small girl crying behind a nearby sculpture . The little girl wore a pink dress over a white knitted sweater . Her hair was tied in pigtails , with fluffy bunny hairbands . Thalia recognized the girl's clothes as from a luxury brand's children's line . The bunny hairbands were the same as the ones Lucy had , which cost around £ 70,000 . Thalia approached and asked , " Hello there , what's the matter ?
" The girl's doe - like eyes were red from crying , her face streaked with tears . " I … I've lost my mummy … sob … " Just as Thalia had guessed . 16:48 Your Gold Digger is Actually A True Heiress 96.7 % Chapter 165 " Do you remember your mummy's phone number ? " Thalia asked . The little girl pouted and shook her head . Thalia asked again, " What about your daddy's phone number ? Or any other family member's number ? Do you remember any ?
" The girl pressed her lips together and shook her head again . Thalia sighed and asked , " Do you know your parents ' names ? " The little girl nodded and said , " My mummy is called Amanda . " Thalia felt relieved . At least she remembered her mother's name . After thinking for a moment , Thalia decided to take the little girl to the park's management center , where staff could use the PA system to help the child find her mother . " No more tears now . I'll help you find your mummy, alright ?
" Thalia bent down , patted the little girl's head , and spoke gently . The girl wiped her tears and looked at Thalia for a moment , her lips pursed , before responding in a childish voice , " Okay . " Thalia's eyes curved into a smile . " That's a good girl . " She extended her hand to the little girl . " Come along then , let's find your mummy . " The little girl obediently took Thalia's hand and followed her . At the management center , Thalia explained the girl's situation to the staff .
The staff member asked , " What's your name , love ? " " My name is Lena Garret , " the little girl replied in her small voice . The staff member immediately connected to the PA system . " Ms. Amanda , your daughter Lena Garret is lost in the park . If you hear this announcement , please come to the management center at the north gate . " The park was large , but there were speakers placed at regular intervals . Before long , Amanda arrived at the management center .
The moment Thalia saw Amanda , she was stunned . Your Gold Digger is Actually A True Heiress 96.8 % Chapter tes Wasn't this Rupert's aunt ? 20 ) ( 0 )noveldrama
