Before he could finish his words, Jonathan gave him a cold look."We can talk about it tomorrow."He swiftly walked away. There could be nothing more important than delivering lunch to Rose,"But …"It would be too late to wait until tomorrow. Finley watched his joyful figure disappear and was left puzzled.He remembered that just last night, Jonathan was downcast and seemed heartbroken. He was in no mood for company.How was it possible that he had transformed so completely overnight? What had happened last night?He thought Rose was not that important to Jonathan. Otherwise, he wouldn't have been released from the pain after falling out of love. As for the message he had just received …He contemplated it for a moment and decided to push it aside. At the same time, when Rose finished her work, it was 11:15 am. It was the perfect time for lunch.She quickly freshened up and picked up her bag before heading to the meeting room to meet Miles. Miles was driving, and the two of t
"What do you mean she was at the company in the morning and should no longer be there?" Jonathan asked.Wasn't Rose supposed to be sleeping in the morning?Finely was taken aback by his low growl and responded resentfully, "I told you when you left that there was something important, but you said we could discuss it tomorrow."Even over the phone, he could sense a chilling atmosphere."Speak!" Jonathan coldly demanded."Mr. Young has been waiting for Ms. Shaffer in the guest area of Celeste Jewels all morning. It seems like they're going out together at this time …"They were supposed to be enjoying a meal together. He didn't dare to finish his sentence. There was a moment of silence on the other end of the line.Finley almost thought the call had been disconnected when a voice finally came through, "Immediately find out where they are. Additionally, from now on, address as 'Mrs. Finch.'"With that, Jonathan hung up the phone. Finley was left bewildered, wondering why he would
"Thank you, Mr. Young …"Rose's heart rate slowed as she quickly expressed her gratitude. Miles's smile was gentle."I've been calling you Rose, and you're still calling me Mr. Young. Isn't that a bit too formal?"Rose hesitated. If not Mr. Young, what should she call him? It wasn't polite for her to call him by his name."How about you call me Miles?"A hint of indulgence appeared in Miles's eyes."Alright, Miles."This title felt neither too formal nor too distant. Not far away, Jonathan had entered the amusement park as well. Watching the two of them chatting and laughing, his gaze was filled with murderous intent.Mr. Finch, who had once been ruthless when reorganizing the various branches of the Finches, found himself powerless when facing Rose.By his side, Finley didn't dare to breathe, fearing that he might unwittingly incur his wrath.At 5:00 pm, as he watched Rose and Miles leave the amusement park and get into the same car, he couldn't contain himself any longer. H
Miles found it weird that Jonathan had been observing from the side without approaching. However, he found it somewhat interesting. He led Rose into the museum.Jonathan got out of the car and followed in hasty steps. He was about to enter when the ticket inspector stopped him."I'm sorry, Sir. You can't enter without a ticket. Please make your way and let others enter first."The ticket inspector was a young man. He had a standardized and friendly smile on his face. However, the glance at Jonathan gave away the thoughts in his heart.He was so handsome and dressed decently, yet he was a man who wanted to mix up the tickets. With him guarding the entrance, no one could enter without a ticket.Jonathan retreated to the side with a darkened face. No one had ever left him aside in this way. At the side, Finley couldn't help but give a thumbs up for the ticket inspector.The expression that was inadvertently leaked was captured by Jonathan. He immediately gave him a cold glance."Wh
Rose and Miles turned back at the same time. Upon seeing the person behind them, their expressions changed. The person who came was Anastasia.Miles frowned deeply as if he didn't want to be disturbed by her at this time. Meanwhile, it was rare for Anastasia to see Miles with any woman, and this woman … Her eyes wandered on Rose's face.When Rose saw her, her whole body froze. Even though she was wearing sunglasses, she could recognize her at a glance—she was her star escort husband's new investor.She didn't expect to see her at this place. Where was her star escort husband? Did he come as well?Almost subconsciously, she glanced around and breathed a sigh of relief when she didn't see her star escort husband's figure.The next moment, she realized that she was a little afraid of facing the two of them standing together again. Especially after last night, she felt a little stuffy.Miles noticed that her face was a little pale. He asked with concern, "Rose, are you okay?"Accord
Miles's face could not be darker. Jonathan, who was not far away, also heard this.He strode up to Miles and said, "It's impossible for Rose to like you."Miles cast a glance at him. A moment ago, he was worried that Anastasia would say something she shouldn't say in front of Rose and cause a misunderstanding.However, at this moment, he hoped that she would expose his good impression of Rose."Do you think she will like you?"He smiled nonchalantly."Of course. She and I …"Jonathan almost revealed the fact that he and Rose were married, but he soon stopped. The divorce agreement was still in his hands, and Rose had a very bad impression of "Mr. Finch".He couldn't let Miles know that Rose didn't know his identity. Otherwise, he would choose to expose it. He suddenly felt a headache.Meanwhile, in the washroom, Anastasia looked at Rose in a trance through the huge mirror in front of her. Rose raised her eyes and met her gaze in the mirror.At that moment, both of them were s
The three people pulled Rose together at the same time. Rose felt that Maya and Kelly were indeed pestering. At the antique exhibition, she didn't want to get into a fight and affect the atmosphere.As she was about to push the three of them away and ask the museum security guards to subdue them, Maya suddenly stumbled on her foot."Ah …" she cried out in pain and failed to stabilize her body.As she fell, she tried to make a final struggle to stabilize her body. Hence, she let go of her hand on Rose's clothes, but it was obvious that she became even more unstable as she lost her fulcrum.She could only grab the hair of someone next to her."Ah …" Kelly's hair was grabbed, and her scalp hurt.She also couldn't bear the weight of one person. The moment Maya fell to the ground, Kelly also landed heavily."Ah … It hurts …"She held her lower abdomen with her hand. Soon, a pool of blood flowed out from under her body, staining her white skirt red.For a moment, Maya also panicked.
As the two people broke in, everyone was stunned for a long time. Especially when Kelly saw Jonathan, a flash of panic flashed in her eyes. She wondered why he was there.Didn't Rose come with Miles? At this time, she couldn't care much anymore. She tried her best to keep her head down so that Jonathan wouldn't see her.When Rose saw her star escort husband, a flash of surprise flashed in her eyes. She thought he should have come with Anastasia.His investor was behind him, and Rose suddenly felt that the atmosphere was extremely strange. However, she didn't have the chance to think too much about the situation in front of her.Kelly gritted her teeth and told Maya, "Call the police, and call Mr. Lane …"Maya was stunned for a moment before she nodded."Alright."She and Mandy made a phone call together. The ambulance and the police arrived at the same time. The ambulance took Kelly away. The police had no choice but to take Rose for investigation.An hour later, the doctor an
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. I don't have a mental illness! I don't have a m
