    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 ckwood family secrets Grace knew , being their adopted daughter . She hadn''t previously asked Asher whether Grace held any position in the ckwood Group . If Grace did work at ckwood Group and had ess to business secrets that she then leaked to Tom Malfoy , it could be extremely damaging to thepany .


    Additionally , Tom Malfoy hated the ckwood 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 nced 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 .

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 investmentpany , not Arno Jones personally . Could thispany also be controlled by Arno Jones ?


    Arno Jones had already been arrested , and hispanies in the UK had been seized . The overseaspany was beyond the reach of British authorities , which was fortunate for Drake . Just then , herputer 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 ckwood family''s adopted daughter , Asher''s sister , and more importantly , she harboured inappropriate feelings for Asher .
