Chapter 150

Randolph called the police, who arrived promptly.

After assessing the situation, the officers explained that since Lucy had been kidnapped in London, they had jurisdiction to investigate the case. They would work with the Harwich police and Russian authorities to apprehend Tom Malfoy,

However, regarding their dispute about who leaked information to Drake Ashcroft, the police stated this wasn’t a police matter and advised them to resolve it themselves.

After the police left, Lady Blackwood, having taken her medication, was not prepared to let Thalia off the hook

The elderly woman insisted that Thalia apologize to Grace.

Thalia laughed coldly. “Apologize? She hardly deserves it.”

“You…” Lady Blackwood glared at Thalia. “Thank goodness you never joined the Blackwood family!”

Both Catherine and Asher frowned simultaneously.

Catherine spoke up: “Mother, please don’t speak like that. Thalia has just been through a kidnapping ordeal and nearly lost her life. Moreover, she suffered this because of our family. Her sister’s fate is still unknown. Though she struck Grace, it was a momentary outburst…”

Asher furrowed his brow and said coldly: “I was the one who pursued Thalia, not the other way around. She wasn’t desperate to marry into the Blackwood family. Please refrain from making such comments in future.”

Randolph’s eyes reflected disdain. “We have no interest in your bloody Blackwood family. Thalia, let’s go home.”

“Alright,” Thalia agreed.

She stared directly at Lady Blackwood, her eyes cold as ice. “I will get to the bottom of who leaked the information. If I find evidence that Grace was responsible, I won’t let her off lightly.”

With that, Thalia turned to leave, but Asher quickly grabbed her wrist.

“Lia…”

Thalia lowered her gaze to his hand on her wrist and said coldly: “Let go.

Asher pressed his lips together but didn’t release her.

Thalia pulled her hand free from Asher’s grip, her eyes fierce. “If Grace leaked the information, I’ll make her pay the price, even if it means becoming your enemy–becoming an enemy of the entire Blackwood family.”
