Meanwhile, down in the dance hall, the dance had just ended.

Jonathan had not had enough yet.

Even though Rose was forced to play along with him, Jonathan found it rather amusing. Reluctant to let go, he kept his hand on her waist.

"Can you let go of me now, Uncle Jonathan?" Rose said with an insincere smile.

Jonathan frowned. His voice was both domineering and jealous. "I'm not your uncle. Don't call me that ever again."

Rose wondered why he was being so jealous. Suddenly, Jonathan stuffed a bag into her hands. It was her bag!

Elated, Rose wanted to thank him. But then, she remembered the way he bit her when they were in the room on the second floor just now. Her shoulder was still hurting.

He bit her, and he even stole her bag!

Rose spat out through gritted teeth, "You wretched … thief!"

Her voice was tiny. After all, she dared not mess with a prominent figure like him.

But Jonathan heard what she said. She was insulting him!

"Hah …"

Jonathan was about to say more when Ro

    But before Rose could read out her husband's full name, Nixon snatched the marriage license from her hands and tore it into pieces.Nixon thought Rose had forged a marriage license just to get revenge on him for cheating with Kelly.Without even looking at Rose, he smiled and confidently addressed the guests watching them."Sorry, everyone. Rose likes to play pranks sometimes. We'll be getting married very soon. Mr. Finch will be officiating the marriage ceremony, and everyone's invited."Nixon was determined to get Celeste Jewels.Rose stared glumly at the torn marriage license. She still had not seen her husband's full name.But soon, she smirked coldly and announced, "I'm already married, but my husband isn't Mr. Lane. If you don't believe me, Mr. Lane, you can check with the county clerk's office. The records there won't be fake."And with that, Rose turned around and left the hall gleefully.Nixon started feeling uneasy.If Rose did get married behind his back, he would n

    Jonathan's eyes flashed coldly as he turned the car around without hesitation. As he did so, he gave Finley a call."There's a woman in his car. Pause all operations. I'm heading back right now. Wait for further instructions."Finley was speechless. He wondered how Jonathan had found out about it."Mr. Finch—" Finley wanted to stop Jonathan, but the call had already ended."Oh, no!"Finley abruptly realized that the woman in the car had to be a special person to Jonathan. He immediately drove back as well.Meanwhile, as Connor drove, the madness in his eyes intensified.Rose had the urge to curse him."Hey, mister. You should've gotten your facts straight first. Why would Jonathan care about whether or not I die? I'm just a nobody. You kidnapped the wrong person!"Rose and Jonathan shared nothing more than a brief encounter that left her with a bite mark on her shoulder.So, the only person she thought of who could save her was her star escort husband. But now, her only hope

    Jonathan rushed to the ward. When Rose saw him, she immediately got out of bed and ran toward him.Clinging onto him, she complained, "I thought I was going to die. I don't get why I was so unlucky that I would get dragged down by that wretched Mr. Finch."Jonathan was bewildered.Wretched?He frowned.Rose did not notice his reaction.She continued angrily, "If I die, I'll turn into a ghost and haunt him every night! He won't be able to get any sleep at all!"Finley, who had just arrived at the door, was thunderstruck when he saw the position they were in.He had never seen anyone acting so boldly around Jonathan before.Finley wondered if Rose did not know that the wretched Mr. Finch she was talking about was right in front of her right now.Jonathan was frowning. It was obvious that he felt a little upset.Finley thought Jonathan would push the woman away and reprimand her. But unexpectedly, Jonathan held her by the waist as if he feared that she would fall over.There w

    The headquarters of Celeste Jewels was located in Century Tower.Rose had just gotten into the elevator when a row of luxury cars pulled up outside the building.Under the protection of his bodyguards, Jonathan got out of the car.Finley accidentally voiced the question in his heart as he walked next to Jonathan. "The Finches only own a few scattered properties in Century Tower. The rest are in the Finch Building in Aquastead."But Mr. Finch, you've chosen to inspect the properties here in Century Tower instead. Is it because of Ms. Shaffer?"Jonathan stopped in his tracks and sneered in disdain, "Because of her? Hah! You must be kidding me!"They got into the elevator. It was obvious that Jonathan stared at the listing for Celeste Jewels in the directory for longer than usual.Finley stayed silent. He pursed his lips and decided not to expose Jonathan. He knew that Jonathan was not being honest about his feelings.…This was Rose's first time at the headquarters of Celeste

    Rose wanted to go after the man, but she had just taken a step forward when Kelly grabbed her wrist.Kelly also spotted the figure, and she knew it was Jonathan!She wondered if Rose was about to flirt with Jonathan. If that was the case, she was not going to let Rose get the chance to do so!For a moment, the two were stuck together. Kelly finally let go when the man disappeared.Then, Kelly confronted Rose tauntingly, "Do you seriously think he fell for you? Even if he did, he couldn't possibly marry you!"Rose was confused. She did not know why Kelly was saying that her star escort husband could not possibly marry her. They were already legally married!It was merely a transactional marriage, but Rose was not about to tell Kelly the real situation.Rose glanced at Nixon, who was still in extreme pain. She cocked her eyebrows and sneered, "Aren't you going to check on your precious Nixon? If he becomes impotent, what are you going to use to keep him hooked?""Why, you—" Kelly

    As Rose left Astra Law Firm, her mind was in turmoil. She could not stay calm at all.Louie said that Celeste had left a secret will. The will would only be revealed after Rose inherited Celeste Jewels.Through her will, Celeste had arranged everything beforehand. It was as if she knew that something would happen to Rose.The secret will gave Rose even more reason to suspect the accident. She knew there had to be more to it.While Rose was deep in her thoughts, her phone rang with a call from her best friend, Yvonne.As soon as the call connected, Yvonne asked concernedly, "Rose, are you okay? I'm so sorry. The dance troupe has been having rehearsals the past few days, so my phone got confiscated."I just heard about what happened to you. How could Maya do this? She keeps spreading the gossip everywhere! If I'd been there, I would've sewn her mouth shut!"The alumni group was buzzing over the news. Everyone now knew that Rose had a one-night stand with a stranger and had been dr

    For a moment, Rose was tempted.But, she still had not figured out the truth behind her mother's accident. She could not leave Aquastead with an easy heart.She was thinking of ways to decline the offer when Evan's gentle voice rang out."You don't have to give me an answer right away. The offer won't expire."Rose sighed in relief.…The sky had turned dark. Jonathan was in a large office on the top floor of the Finch Building.He had just finished his inspections. As he sat at his office desk, he found himself waiting for a call from Rose.Suddenly, his phone rang. But when he looked up and saw the name on the screen, his gaze darkened.He answered the call with an unfriendly tone. "Spit it out!"On the other end of the line, a chill ran down Zac's spine. He did not know how he had provoked this cold man. Then, he realized something and spoke in a gossipy tone."So, what happened last night? Did something indescribable happen? If I'd been in Nixon's shoes and realized that

    Half an hour later, Rose and Evan rushed into Aquastead Hotel.Nixon and Kelly, who were already waiting there, spotted them right away.When Kelly saw Evan, she became insanely jealous of Rose again.Keeping up her usual innocent act, Kelly commented, "I'm so envious of Rose. She's so beautiful. She always has a man beside her."Nixon's eyes flashed ferociously as he made a call. "There's a man with her. Get her to shake him off."In the hotel lobby, Rose received another call from that unfamiliar number. "Get rid of the person beside you!"Rose knew the caller was targeting her.She did not have any enemies besides Nixon. It seemed like she had not kicked him hard enough.Rose turned around with a smile and said to Evan, "Thanks for bringing me here, Evan. I'm going to meet an old friend now. You should go back."Evan did not believe her.He was about to say something when Rose stuck out her tongue mischievously. "Sorry, Evan. It wasn't an old friend. I'm meeting … my husba

    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

    Henrietta turned and left after she spoke. But how could Rose feel at ease with letting her search for Carl alone? He was a dangerous person.She had witnessed how dangerous and crazy he was that night. Now that everything he had done was revealed, he had even less qualms. If he hurt Henrietta again… Once she thought of Miles, she immediately followed Henrietta. She tailed her and realized Henrietta was darting aimlessly through the corridors. She peered through the glass door of each room to check inside. Once she was sure the person inside wasn't Carl, she would move on to the next room.Was that how she planned to find him? She had to go through the facility even if she wanted to see Carl. She would at least be able to guarantee her safety that way."Etta…" said Rose. She wanted to stop Henrietta so she could provide her information to the facility to meet Carl. However, just as she called out to Henrietta, she heard Henrietta's hoarse voice. "Carl!"The next instant, Rose

    Rose stopped in her tracks and turned around, surprised to see the person behind her. Anastasia?"Don't…" Anastasia looked anxious. But before she could finish, someone from behind bumped into her, causing her to let go of Rose's hand.The person immediately apologized. "Sorry, I… I'm in a rush." The person looked frightened but quickly stepped into the elevator.As the elevator door was about to close, someone inside asked Rose, "Ms. Shaffer, aren't you coming?"For some reason, Rose entered the elevator."Rose…" Anastasia wanted to stop her, but as she reached out, the elevator door closed, leaving her standing alone.She tried to stop her, but she failed, so what else could she do?Rose… Since Miles left Regalia, Harriette had been behaving herself, but today, she was acting weird. She was about to cause trouble!Anastasia was certain of that. But she didn't know what Harriette was planning to do.In the elevator, Rose felt uneasy. The elevator reached the first floor. Wh

    Harriette was warning Anastasia. If she interfered, she would "take care" of her.Anastasia's eyes flickered with surprise, and she swiftly looked away. After that, she quietly left the airport with the two of them.On the way back to the company, Harriette deliberately separated Anastasia from her and Rose. Anastasia took a car on her own, while Harriette and Rose shared one.In the car, Rose couldn't stop thinking about the look Anastasia had given her earlier. She felt that Anastasia had something she wanted to say to her.Rose sensed that ever since Harriette returned, Anastasia had changed entirely. She was no longer as aggressive as before. But despite Anastasia's change, they still didn't interact much.What could she possibly want to say to her?"Rose? Rose?" Harriette called her twice before Rose finally reacted. She was immediately met with Harriette's pout. "Rose, what were you daydreaming about? You weren't listening to me, were you?"Rose didn't respond. She tried t

    Harriette was referring to Carl.Miles frowned instantly, as though worried that she might get hurt again.However, Harriette immediately reassured him, "Don't worry, Miles. As long as you're by my side, he won't be able to hurt me again."Miles thought for a moment, and his brows began to relax."Okay." Miles agreed for Harriette to meet Carl."Be good. I'll go visit Rose. She was scared last night too, but luckily nothing happened to her. Otherwise, her fate, as well as Jon's and Ezra's would be very different."Miles didn't hide his concern for Rose in front of Harriette."Go ahead, Miles. I'll visit her later today as well." Harriette said kindly.The moment Miles left the office, the smile on her face instantly faded."Such a shame…" She sighed, lamenting at Rose's luck. It would be ideal for her if something had happened between Ezra and Rose in the greenhouse.If so, Rose would have never had the chance to be with Jonathan, and there wouldn't be so much commotion at th

    For a moment, there was only silence from the other end of the line. Lizzie didn't respond to Harriette's question."Madam?" Harriette called out cautiously.It was as if she'd flipped a switch because what came after was Lizzie's sharp questioning. "Did you already know that Rose and Jonathan were married?"Even over the phone, Harriette felt uneasy. "Answer me! Did you know?" Lizzie raised her voice.Harriete gulped. "I only realized later that the person Rose married was Mr. Finch. Madam, I wasn't trying to keep it from you. I just…""Just what?" Lizzie didn't believe that Harriette hadn't hidden the truth intentionally.In the past, Lizzie would have definitely punished Harriette for her dishonesty, but at that moment, there were more pressing matters than punishing Harriette.Lizzie forced down her anger. When she left the Finch Manor the night before, she hadn't returned to Cyrus's residence. Instead, she went to a luxury condominium she had secretly purchased.She'd sp

    Jonathan understood what Ezra meant. "No matter what help you need, you can always ask Finley."By the time Rose came back downstairs, the serious expressions that Jonathan and Ezra had previously worn were replaced by smiles.Jonathan was preparing to send Rose to the Youngs, but right after they stepped out, they saw a luxury car parked outside the house, with Elijah standing beside it. Standing far apart, the two men locked eyes.Jonathan looked shocked at first, but the shock quickly disappeared. Elijah had most probably investigated Jonathan inside out, so it made sense that he knew the location of Jonathan's new house.Jonathan took the hint and handed Rose over to Elijah.When Rose reached the office, everyone she met gave her an oddly happy look."Ms. Shaffer, congratulations!""Ms. Shaffer, thank you so much!"Rose felt strange about receiving congratulations. What had happened that people were congratulating her? And thanks? Why were they thanking her?Rose was confu
