Chapter 183

“It’s over, Lia,” Asher’s voice was deep and slightly hoarse. “Malfoy is dead. It’s all over.”

Thalia’s heart suddenly raced. “Are you… are you alright?”

There was a moment of silence on the other end.

Then Asher’s voice came through the phone: “I’m fine.”

Thank goodness for that.

Thalia exhaled with relief.

Her heart, which had been in her throat, finally settled back into place.

She had been terrified that Asher might have been injured while confronting Malfoy in Russia.

“I should go now. It’s dinner time,” Thalia said.

“Lia, wait for me,” Asher’s voice was gentle.

Thalia didn’t respond, simply ending the call.

Her mind was in turmoil.

The Malfoy situation might be resolved, but what about Lady Blackwood?

And Randolph now had strong negative feelings toward the Blackwood family.

She herself couldn’t simply ignore the pain she had suffered and start over with Asher.

“Thalia, dinner’s ready!” Victoria called out, pulling Thalia from her thoughts.

“Coming,” Thalia pushed aside her jumbled thoughts and headed toward the dining room.

Ever since learning of Sienna’s pregnancy, Margret Ashcroft had been absolutely delighted.

Drake hadn’t yet told his mother about Ashcroft Group’s troubles. He was still trying to salvage what he could, planning to inform her only when it became absolutely unsustainable.

Thus, Margret remained blissfully unaware. Despite the company being on the brink of disaster, she continued to play the role of wealthy socialite, bedecked in jewelry and radiating happiness.
