Grace looked through the surveince footage once more. The incident had taken ce before dawn, so only a vague shadow could be seen. The footage clearly showed Thomson hurting himself. He seemed to not be in the right state of mind, but he was clearly fine the day before.


    Regardless of who the real culprit was, this incident did act as a deterrent to stop the executives from brazenly making things difficult for Grace and Liam.


    She reached over and gave Liam''s hair a tousle. "Go over these documents first. Those executives won''t be trying anything for the time being as they''re scared. You do have to be cautious about Edric, though. If he asks you to meet, you must give me a call."


    Liam was still learning the ropes. Since he was a smart person, it would not be long before he joined the elites of Druville.


    In order for theirte father to be at ease, Grace would do everything she could to protect Liam.


    Liam''s eyes were bloodshot. He had so much on his tetely that he did not even have the energy to think about all the things that had happened to their family. Seeing how Grace was concerned about him, he became teary.


    The tears were about to fall from his eyes, but he had promised her at Quentin''s funeral that he would never shed a tear again. Immediately, he forced his tears back in. "You be careful too, Grace."


    A pang of tenderness struck Grace. Quentin had died, and Carmen had be a


    nun.


    Her affection toward her parents was not deep. However, they had treated Liam pretty well, so the entire situation definitely had a bigger impact on him.


    She sat in front of him, sorted all of thepany''s documents from recent years, and settled on the project that she had worked on before.


    This was the project that Alice had signed with Henderson Group. In order to save thepany from jeopardy, Grace terminated the contract unterally by exploiting loopholes in the wording of the contract. Now, that plot ofnd would no longer be used to build a mall.


    Simr to the Yule family''s projects, thend would be used for residential development. However, all of thend nearby belonged to the Yule family. With that family''s strong financial resources, there was no way the Lamberts— especially in their current state-couldpete with them.


    This project was very important to Lambert Group. Even if they manage to defeat Edric, it would be pointless if they were not going to make a huge profit out of it.


    Quentin had poured his blood, sweat, and tears into this project for two years as well.


    With the project proposal still in her hand, Grace fell into a daze. Seeing this, Liam could not resist asking, "Grace, are we really going to use thisnd for residential development?"


    Grace let her gaze fall to the floor. She felt a tad puzzled. She wondered if


    Quentin really won thisnd purely by luck.


    The Yule family had obtained the


    surrounding plots ofnd except this


    one. Given the Yule family''s


    rtionship with the higher-ups, it could be that they had already


    caught wind of something.


    Most importantly, back when she terminated the contract, Ethan had remained nonchnt the entire time.


    Instantly, she felt uneasy. After giving it some thought, she gave Tim a call.


    "Mr. Bet, I''d like to know if you''ve heard anything concerning thend that Henderson Group is nning to develop with mypany?"


    Tim pushed his sses higher up his nose bridge, darkness shing across his eyes. "You''ll have to ask Mr. Henderson about this. He''s been really busytely and hasn''t been answering my calls. You might need to go look for him in person."


    She still felt the need to keep a proper distance from Ethan. However, for the sake


    of this project, she had to meet up with him.


    After all, she would not be able to get any information from Simon. Simon was already dying to get rid of her. After giving it some thought, she felt that it would be better for her to look for Ethan directly.


    She took a deep breath before asking, "Where''s Mr. Henderson now?" Tim immediately sent her an address. It was a famous hotel. She was told that Ethan was currently meeting with some people at a restaurant in the hotel.


    Without any further hesitation, Grace grabbed her car keys to go to the hotel, but she didn''t forget to exhort Liam to look through the documents carefully before she went out.
