It was her club, too, you know.

Yeah.

I mean, I know how much the club means to Annie, and I know I'm doing the right thing by handing it over to Harry, but...

♪ Darren: Ridley.

[Door closes] Heard about Carol.

Oh, yeah.

Well, listen, it was never my intention for her to be taken off the case, but now that she's gone, I could do with your help.

Absolutely.

Well, I've been doing some more digging into Oliver's bank account.

The jewelry purchase was a ring.

All right.

When was that bought?

The purchase was made the day before he was murdered, but we're getting the receipt sent over.

Ah, OK. Well, that's the engagement ring sorted.

What about the rest of the money?

Now, where is he getting that?

Have we got access to the Grant Company accounts?

No, the account responsible for the deposits have been closed, but we're working on getting the statements.

But we've got something else.

When running number plates, we found another car that visited the track in the last few weeks.

The car belongs to Sarita Grant.

♪ Please, come through.

♪ It's a very difficult time for the family.

Ridley: Yes, thank you for seeing us, Sarita.

What is this concerning?

We're here to get to the bottom of Oliver's spending.

You are not the only one.

Well, we think you know a little more than you're telling us.

His personal accounts show expenses totaling close to 300,000 in only a few months.

Well, that's news to me.

Well, we got a warrant, and we went through your accountant to access your expenses account.

An account you closed days ago, but we recovered those deleted files from your computer server.

Ridley: You transferred company money to cover Oliver's losses.

Why?

You know what the money was for.

I had to help my son.

So you siphoned off company money to what, pay for his expensive habits?

Oliver's car wasn't the only car that visited a go kart track, a known drug hotspot he used.

You were there two weeks ago.

Please, take a seat.

Oliver had racked up debts with these awful people.

Was constantly asking me for money.

Well, in the end, I couldn't just keep agreeing to it.

So you went to the track.

And then what happened?

Well, I met this man there--Matt.

It was really humiliating, but I just wanted the issue dealt with, so I paid this Matt whatever he said that Oliver owed him and then prayed that that was the end of the matter.

And then Lewis noticed these huge losses across the accounts and raised the alarm, but you hid the truth from him.

I mean, why did you do that?

Lewis is my son.

I love him, but my trust in him was not the same as before.

I mean, what would make you lose trust in your son?

He turned his back on me, to keep in with his cheating father's good graces.

What do you know about this property purchase made by Oliver's personal account?

Oh, Oliver said that was a purchase on a--an apartment in Cheshire.

He wanted it for Amelia, for the two of them to have a fresh start.

Uh, but if their relationship was strong, why the necessity for a fresh start?

Getting engaged to Amelia was what was best for Ollie.

He was in with a bad crowd, giving them everything-- money, taking them out.

I didn't want him turning into his philandering father.

Do you have, uh, any idea where Amelia is right now?

♪ Ridley: Hi, Amelia.

Do you mind if I ask you some questions?

♪ Can you tell me why you confided in Lewis?

I mean, why tell Lewis about Oliver's drug problems and not Sarita?

Was it because you knew he had a soft spot for you?

He always did, but I wasn't taking advantage of him.

Yes, but... you knew that he'd do anything for you, which makes me wonder, what were these two brothers fighting about?

I mean, were they fighting about Lewis exposing Oliver's drug problems... or were they fighting about you... Amelia?

I wanted to give Oliver a wake-up call.

What, by igniting the flame... of a previous jealousy?

No.

No, Lewis knew what Oliver could be like.

He treated me like dirt.

And he liked the party lifestyle--drinks, drugs.

God knows who he'd been with.

If I'd ever questioned him about it, he'd just go on the attack.

Lewis felt he could treat me better.

He wanted me to leave Oliver.

And be with him.

So whose idea was it for you to tie the knot?

I mean...was that what you wanted?

I knew Sarita encouraged it.

She wanted our families to do business together, and us getting married was her way of encouraging my family to buy a stake in her business.

But you went ahead with it anyway.

I was in love with Oliver.

I mean, that ring he bought you.

Surely that proved that he was in love with you.

Oliver didn't buy my engagement ring.

It was a family heirloom.

Sarita gave it to us.

Oh.

I see.

♪ Hmm.

But the apartment that he bought for both of you, surely.

What apartment?

Sorry, I--I don't know what you're talking about.

We only ever spoke about buying a family home together.

Right.

Well, he did sometimes rent places temporarily as a pied-à-terre if he wanted to be more on-site with his developments.

And was he renting one currently or...

The last place I remember him renting was in one of his new builds.

Well, look, you've... [Sighs] told me enough, Amelia, for me to... ask you this question, I think, but did you ever think that Oliver was having an affair?

No, never heard any concrete proof.

But when I asked him about it, he admitted it.

And did he say who with?

He wouldn't tell me who it was with.

Part of me didn't even want to know.

Hmm.

At the engagement party, he promised he would change... ♪ that things would be different once we were married.

Yeah, I know.

I'm sorry, and I'm not just sorry about what's happening with Jack.

It's the fact that you're off the case.

That was never my intention when I told Goodwin.

I know, Alex.

[Exhales sharply] I can't just do nothing, not with Matt out there and Jack still missing.

I have to be on this case in whatever way I can.

I need to put Matt away.

I understand what you're saying.

Good.

This has to stay between us two, yeah?

OK. OK. Woman: There you go.

Thank you.

Let me bring you up to speed.

Thanks.

So, as things stand, Matt isn't our only concern.

Lewis is also in the mix.

So what's Lewis' motive?

Well, Lewis was not only jealous about the family business, he also had notions of Amelia.

I interviewed her.

Apparently, he thought he'd be better for her.

And he may have been right, because I think Oliver might have been having an affair.

With who?

I got a purchase receipt from Darren for the ring that Oliver bought.

There's an extra charge for an engraving of the letter "A," as in Ava Tunstall.

Is there any more evidence to support that?

Well, Ava's apartment.

Oliver was paying for it.

So why get engaged to Amelia?

Well, I think Sarita was holding the business over his head, you know, the business was in trouble, and the association with Amelia and her family was just too good an opportunity to miss.

So you need to go and speak to Ava.

Yeah.

And I'm coming with you.

OK. ♪ [Chatter and laughter] ♪ Jack!

Well, you had no problem accepting jewelry from him, did you?

Now we're getting somewhere.

So tell me about Oliver and Matt.

When did they first meet?

I invited Oliver to one of my raves.

Matt was there.

They just hit it off.

Yeah, they hit it off, all right.

And when did that relationship turn sour?

I mean, I know that Oliver owed Matt loads of money, but those debts were paid, weren't they?

Yeah, but Matt kept giving him more and more gear and charging him high interest.

He was a bully.

[Scoffs] Oh... come on, Eva.

Don't you want to see Oliver's killer brought to justice?

Oliver had a big mouth.

He told Matt about a place he'd bought in Cheshire, and once Matt knew about it, he threatened Oliver that he was dead if he didn't pay the interest.

Tsk.

I see.

So Oliver decided to go and confront Matt at the rave, is that it?

Yeah, I suppose.
