last update Last Updated: 2024-10-29 19:42:56
After hanging up the phone, Miles began to anticipate his meeting with Rose's husband tonight. He knew Jonathan too well.

He was used to making independent decisions. If he really put his heart into pursuing Rose, even though she was already married, it wouldn't be an obstacle to him.

He would spare no effort to make anything that annoyed him disappear. However, even so, Rose's husband could pose some challenges for him.

If he could persuade him to let Jonathan give up, that would be even better. Miles chuckled as he contemplated this.

"Prepare a bouquet of roses and get a pair of the limited edition earrings from the recent Young House of Jewels collection. I'll be needing them tonight," he instructed his assistant.

On the other hand,Rose immediately felt regret after hanging up the phone. Inviting Miles to their home might not sit well with her star escort husband.

After some contemplation, she decided to make a test call. She dialed the number, but it indicated that the pe

    In preparation for entertaining Miles that evening, Rose returned to Zenwood Gardens early to prepare dinner. As soon as she entered, she was greeted by a strong aroma of food. The dining table was filled with dishes that she loved, both visually appealing and delicious."This ..."She began to wonder if she had walked into the wrong house. Before she could make her exit to confirm, her star escort husband emerged from the kitchen."You're back early today. Just in time for the last dish. Wash your hands, and we can have dinner," Jonathan said while carrying a plate of salad. He was wearing an apron, resembling a family cook. His handsome face was undeniably charming even in this attire, which added a touch of authenticity to his presence.Rose was briefly stunned. She scanned the table with amazement and asked, "Did you make this?""Why don't you taste it and see if it suits your palate?" It wasn't a problem for her to think he had made the dishes."Wow … I didn't expect

    As Rose changed her clothes and stepped out, she was startled by the somber expression on her star escort husband's face. "What's wrong?"He was fine just moments ago. Was it her imagination, or did she detect a hint of jealousy in his tone? Jonathan fixed his gaze on her and asked, "Who is the person you want to invite?""Oh, I forgot to mention. It's Mr. Young from the Youngs in Regalia. I'll introduce you two later; he's also eager to meet you." Jonathan's face seemed to darken even further. The additional group of people who applied for jobs at Celeste Jewels was probably Miles's doing. He had clearly warned him to keep his distance from her.He stared at Rose in silence for a moment before he suddenly smiled, "Since he helped you so much, I should express my gratitude to him as well."Rose was somewhat puzzled. However, she didn't dwell on it and checked the time; it had been almost ten minutes since Miles said he would arrive. She adjusted the dishes on the table, not

    "Ms. Shaffer, I have some sudden matters to attend to today and can't make it."Miles glanced at the several cars around him, his heart filled with frustration. After saying this, he promptly hung up the phone. Rose was a bit bewildered. What could have happened to him?On the side, Jonathan had already headed to the entrance, ready to change his shoes and leave. He could tell from Rose's expression that Miles wouldn't be coming.However, he still had to put on a facade."Let's go!" he urged.Rose lowered her eyes and said, "No need to go; Mr. Young said he has some sudden matters and can't make it.""Can't make it? Well ... that's a shame. I was looking forward to meeting him," Jonathan sighed in disappointment.He looked at the table full of dishes and asked, "How about we eat first?""Sure," Rose reluctantly agreed.She was indeed feeling a bit hungry. The dishes on the table were as delicious as those prepared by a top chef.When she thought about the pitiful-looking eggs

    "Playing games like catching a cheater, that's better left for you and Nixon."Rose coldly disconnected the call. Kelly didn't expect this reaction from Rose. She looked toward the nearby figure of Jonathan and a woman.The woman was none other than Anastasia. Anastasia had just arrived in Aquastead, and she was eager to see him. Therefore, she called him as soon as she got off the plane."Jonathan, it's been so long. Originally, I was supposed to come to the National Jewelry Design Award with my brother, but Anthony ..."She took off her sunglasses and pushed her hair aside, revealing a bruise on her left cheek, clearly from a blow. Jonathan frowned."Since I filed for divorce, Anthony has been pestering me. In my heart ..."Anastasia gazed at him with affection, hoping to find a trace of compassion in his eyes. However, Jonathan only furrowed his brow and looked at her with an exceptionally calm expression.After a pause, he coolly asked, "Where is it?"If it weren't for a c

    "I have something to tell you as well," Jonathan said as he fixed his eager gaze upon her causing her cheeks to blush slightly.Rose averted her gaze from his intense stare and focused on his pants leg. "You go first.""First, close your eyes," he said, wanting to surprise her.She furrowed her brows, unsure of his intentions but closed her eyes nonetheless. After a while of silence, her star escort husband suddenly took her hand.Just as she was about to open her eyes, he warned, "Don't open your eyes."Soon, she felt something cool wrapped around her wrist. With years of knowledge about jewelry, she recognized it as a bracelet. He had given her a bracelet?Her mind momentarily went blank, and she couldn't fathom what he was up to. Then, her star escort husband's low, captivating voice sounded in her ear, "My grandmother used to say that if I meet someone I like, I should give her this. Rose, I'm giving it to you now."Rose's head was momentarily empty, but she remembered t

    "I don't have feelings for you. Our agreement should end!"Rose dropped these words and returned to her office. Jonathan's face turned ominously dark. How could she have no feelings for him? She had been infatuated with his face. He had never felt such defeat. He stared at the bracelet in his hand, utterly puzzled as to where he had gone wrong. In the afternoon, Rose went to the bank to withdraw one million in cash. If her credit limit had allowed, she would have taken out all the money she owed her star escort husband. When she returned to Zenwood Gardens, her star escort husband was not there. She piled the cash in the bedroom. That night, her star escort husband did not come back. For the following days, she brought back one million in cash each day. After a few days, she had finally moved all the four million back home. Early one morning, she called her star escort husband. The phone rang for a while. Just as she thought he wouldn't pick up, he answered."Hello?"A woman

    As Anastasia saw the name of the person Jonathan was calling, she immediately knew who was on the other end of the call. She had never seen such a passionate expression on his face.Jonathan promptly drove back to Zenwood Gardens. Anastasia wanted to follow him but stopped in her tracks. In the hotel lobby, she gazed blankly in the direction he had disappeared. After all, had she arrived too late? She touched the bruise on her cheek. She had come to Aquastead to participate in the National Jewelry Design Award. Just an hour before she was supposed to leave, Anthony, who was drunk, found her and began to harass her. In their altercation, he ended up striking her. She deeply regretted her actions. If it hadn't been for everyone's belief that Jonathan would fail in the power struggle within the Finches, she wouldn't have turned to someone else.If she had stayed steadfastly by his side back then, she would be Mrs. Finch by now. She wouldn't have had to go through the trouble of se

    So, she sent a message asking him to come back just to repay him the money? The neat stacks of cash in front of him meant she was resorting to getting cash because he had asked the bank to prevent her from transferring money to his account. Transporting this much cash back home would take time and effort. As Jonathan's gaze fell on the money-counting machine, he couldn't help but let out a self-mocking smile."Ms. Shaffer is considerate."She had everything prepared for him, all just to distance herself from him as soon as possible. What kind of look and tone was this? It was as if she was an irresponsible, unfaithful woman who wounded his heart. In reality, he already had a new "sugar mommy". His gaze made her inexplicably guilty. She instinctively averted her eyes and urged him, "You can start counting now.""No need."Jonathan withdrew his gaze coldly and continued, "I'll have someone take care of this money. As for our agreement, you should sign the divorce agreement, a

    There was a long silence in the conference room.Miles had a somber expression, clearly showing a strong sense of displeasure.Anastasia sat in the furthest corner. Since Harriette's return, she was no longer the favored daughter of the family. It was as if she had become a completely different person.But no one paid attention to her. Today, she was just there to make up the numbers.Kelly frowned, but inside, she was overjoyed.Among everyone in the conference room, she was the most excited to see Chloe arrive. She had put in effort to ensure Chloe could make it today.She finally brought up the thing that mattered most to her through Chloe.However, she couldn't show her happiness outwardly.On the surface, she was filled with righteous indignation as she said, "Aunt Chloe, Rose hasn't been dead long, and you're already bringing this up? Isn't this behavior a bit too unseemly?"Rose inherited Young Group. Young Group belongs to Rose. How could you… How could you…" she accus

    Rose often wore that necklace.Kelly had complimented the necklace, saying it looked beautiful and that she wanted to buy one as well. Rose told her that she had designed and made it herself, and there were only two in the whole world: one that she kept and the other that was given to a friend.She knew that the friend was Yvonne.She pretended to be jealous at that moment, but Rose didn't give in or make one for her too.Kelly recalled that Rose was also wearing it that day.All the information pointed to one conclusion—that body was undoubtedly Rose!"Miles, Rose… Poor Rose…" Kelly was crying so hard she nearly fainted.The level of sadness and grief she displayed was comparable to that of Miles.In her heart, she secretly felt glee at Miles' reaction.After he saw "Rose", it seemed as if the necklace confirmed her identity, and from that moment on, he seemed to have lost his soul.Even her "self-blame" act received little response from him, as if he was deeply immersed in

    "Hehe! No need to thank me. Wasn't that what I was supposed to do?" Ezra remarked. He was feeling a bit shy because of Rose's gratitude.Rose could tell there was a plan to deal with Kelly.Rose didn't ask too many questions about the plan. They only asked her to stay here temporarily, and she figured out that she shouldn't make any public appearances for the time being.To ensure Kelly revealed her true intentions, she needed to be tricked into thinking she was truly in a dire situation.If it were just Harriette, she wouldn't be that angry, but since it was Kelly, that was a different story.She still hadn't confronted her about Oliver's death, so this time, she would settle the score altogether.Rose quietly awaited the day of the big reveal.On the night that the news of Rose's death spread, Jonathan rushed back to Regalia. It was said that Jonathan caused a major commotion at the police station, refusing to accept the explanation that she had been "blown to pieces with no r

    Miles looked at Rose while listening to Harriette's lie that "Rose was dead".There was only one feeling in his heart—a lingering fear.If Jonathan hadn't discovered early on that Harriette was an impostor, Miles would probably still be deceived, mistaking her for the real Harriette.He didn't care about his own feelings being deceived. What really mattered to him was that the fake Harriette would use him to harm Rose!"What do you plan to do about Harriette?"When Ezra walked in, he was seemingly aware that Miles was already inside.While Rose was still asleep, he asked that question.Ezra didn't realize that "Harriette" wasn't the real Harriette he knew. He only knew that Miles had deep feelings for Harriette and was worried that Miles couldn't bear to do anything to her.If Miles truly couldn't bear it, then a lot of things would have to be done by Ezra and Jonathan.Unexpectedly, Miles said without hesitation, "Wherever she came from, that's where she's going back to."He

    It wasn't a trap set by Jonathan, but rather by Ezra.After Ezra had thrown Carl into the psychiatric facility, he never showed up again. Now that he was here, he didn't dare to think about what Ezra might do to him.Ezra spoke up. "Carl, you're weird."Back at the hospital warehouse, you showed so much courage and had already decided you were willing to risk your life for the woman you love. You weren't afraid of dying then, so what's causing your fear now?"It seems like your determination to face death isn't very resolute!"Ezra's tone sounded sarcastic as he said that.Carl immediately responded, "It's not that I'm not resolute…"As he uttered the words, Carl realized he might have fallen into a trap. Feeling a bit guilty, he quickly changed his statement. "What beloved woman? Willingness to risk my life for her? You really like to make up stories, Mr. Turner."Make up stories, he said? Ezra's eyes gleamed with a sharp intensity.Carl didn't admit to taking the fall for Li

    As soon as the call connected, Harriette started crying uncontrollably.On the other end of the line, the man remained silent. The expected concern didn't come immediately, causing Harriette to pause. Fortunately, Miles' voice soon came through. "Harriette, please don't cry. Did something happen? Are you hurt? Please don't cry…"Every word she said carried an intense sense of care, reflecting on Miles's concern that she was familiar with.Harriette finally felt relieved, though she was still crying. Hearing Miles on the other end of the phone sounding even more anxious helped calm her down a little. Between her sobs, she started blaming herself, saying, "Miles, it's all my fault. I shouldn't have gone to meet that person, and I shouldn't have made Rose come with me. I, I…"It was followed by another bout of sobbing from Harriette."What's happened to Rose?" Miles asked.Harriette heard the person on the other end of the phone suddenly stop breathing for a moment.Even though R

    And there was also Miles… He was currently on vacation abroad, which was a time meant for relaxation. If Rose were to die, hearing the news would likely affect his vacation, right?He would definitely rush back for this.It would be a time of sorrow and a time to take on the responsibilities of Young Group once again.He wouldn't know that Harriette played a part in Rose's death. In truth, Harriette only held resentment toward Rose, and even if she were with the Young family, she wouldn't harm Miles.However, when Rose reached this conclusion, she felt particularly uneasy.But she didn't have enough time to figure out why she felt uncomfortable. She thought about Elijah, Clover, Yvonne, Emily…The people she thought about flashed through her mind one by one.…Outside the warehouse, Harriette, in a state of panic, ran out. Once she was in a more populated area, she resumed her act.The doctors and nurses who left the warehouse earlier were no longer there.Harriette was surpr

    When Harriette saw the look on Rose's face, she felt stirred up with even more excitement.She was astonished, shocked, and even confused—all these emotions were present except for fear.This made Harriette feel very dissatisfied. Why wasn't Rose afraid?She wanted to instill fear in Rose and make her scared. She even wanted to watch her tremble all over, begging for mercy and pleading for her life…How could she be okay as though nothing was happening at all?In the current situation, Carl has control over Rose. There was no chance Rose would be able to leave the psychiatric facility's warehouse today.So, Harriette decided to stop pretending.She faced Rose, whose eyes were filled with a complex mix of emotions. With a gentle smile, she said, "I owe it all to you, Rose!"She passed on Carl's message to Rose, doubling the irony."Harriette, you…" If Rose didn't understand by now, she had to really be clueless.After Rose connected everything together, it became increasingly

    That strange feeling in the air today hadn't faded since it began. Rose had the strange urge to find out where it came from. What would the result be?She ignored Henrietta's frantic cries. Her gaze slid past her and fell on Carl. She asked once more, "What do you intend to do?""What do I intend to do?" Carl sneered and continued, "The Finches sent me here to a psychiatric facility."He then chuckled. "Do I look insane to you?"Rose was speechless.Yes, very much so.Carl's heart was filled with genuine hatred. Being sent to the psychiatric facility was Ezra's doing. Ezra clearly wanted him to experience what his mother, Nancy, had suffered back then. During his time here, they injected him with drugs. He knew exactly what those drugs were doing to his body. It was the knowledge that filled him with terror. This was exactly what Ezra wanted. He even felt that he was mentally ill now.Hatred flared in his eyes. "No, I'm not sick.
