The voice was soft, but Rose still heard it.

"You said, Madeline..."

Rose remembered that Madeline was also present at yesterday's ball.

Madeline's eyes flickered. She hesitated to betray Maya but eventually shared, "Maya mentioned you're her cousin and have a close bond with Mr. Miles."

"Oh?" Rose didn't believe Maya would only say that.

But Rose didn't press for more details. After Madeline left, she got a call and then left Celeste Jewels with a pair of earrings she designed.

...

Since the morning, Maya had been waiting for Madeline's call.

After befriending the daughter of the Chambers family, she felt she had a chance for a leap forward. She intended to use her connections with Madeline to get close to Howard.

If she tied the knot with Howard, even Kelly would have to show her some respect. Upon learning that Howard had gone to the shooting range, Maya followed suit.

As Howard exited the shooting range, she quickly closed the distance, seizing the moment as Howard's c

    As Rose walked over, Maya looked around but didn't spot Rose."Damn it! Why did she ask me to come here? What does she want?" If it weren't for the concern that Rose might say something inappropriate in front of Howard, Maya wouldn't have kept the appointment. But after waiting for just two minutes, Maya became impatient."Wait one more minute. If she doesn't show up, it's not my fault!"Maya stared at the time on her phone.Just as she said that a voice suddenly sounded from behind, "I'm here!" Rose had a smile on her face. As she spoke, she lifted her foot and kicked Maya's buttocks forcefully."Ah..."Maya didn't react in time. Her body staggered forward, and with a splash, she tumbled into the wishing pool in a sprawled position.Coughing and soaked, Maya stood up embarrassed in the pool after being kicked.Glaring at Rose, she asked, "Rose, what are you doing?""What am I doing? Think about what you did yesterday, and you'll know what I'm doing," Rose sneered.Her

    "Hmph, my granddaughter is not someone you can just bully at will." He glanced disapprovingly at Thomas, but in the next moment, when he looked at Rose, his gaze became exceptionally doting. He patted Rose's hand and said, "Rosie, they are all here to apologize today. But even if you don't forgive them, it's okay. Your happiness is all that matters."Upon hearing Oliver's words, Thomas and Bonnie's faces filled with panic. They once believed Rose couldn't be linked to Oliver, but today Madeline informed them that Oliver had recognized Rose as his granddaughter.Moreover, the Young family issued a statement canceling the planned investment in Aquastead, which made Thomas realize the gravity of the situation. Without delay, he brought those who had troubled Rose the day before, including their parents, to apologize to her.Before Rose's return, Oliver had made his stance clear: everything was negotiable, but it all depended on Rose's mood."Ms. Rose, we were wrong about what

    Rose thought about that phone call and was momentarily taken aback. On the other hand, Anastasia smiled gently at Rose, walked over to her, and affectionately took her hand."Grandpa, you seem quite anxious. You might scare Rose and her husband too, right, Rose?"Rose's remained silent as she heard Anastasia's words. Her face stiffened considerably. However, Oliver thought she was just being shy."What Anastasia said makes sense. We can do it another day. Just let me know in advance so I can prepare!"Oliver seemed to hold Rose's husband in high regard. But Rose was in a dilemma. She was lost in thought about her 'star escort husband' and hadn't been paying attention to Anastasia.It wasn't until Anastasia suddenly said, "Rose, I'm sorry, I won't be able to come home and spend time with you for a while. I'll have to stay outside for a while. Don't miss me too much!" that Rose snapped back to reality.After saying this, Anastasia smiled at Rose and went upstairs to her room, leavi

    Rose's face turned crimson all of a sudden. Just moments ago, she had been eloquent, but now she was at a loss for words."You...you...you..."What kind of bold words were these? She nervously touched her flushed cheek and took a deep breath, trying to regain her composure. She spoke with determination."Who said I missed you?""You..."Jonathan couldn't stop grinning. With one word, he brought Rose back to her original state.Rose, embarrassed and wanting to hang up the phone, suddenly heard Jonathan emit a low, stifled groan as he clutched his injured shoulder."What's wrong with you?" Rose asked in surprise.Jonathan lowered his head to glance at his wound, which had started bleeding again. He didn't want to worry Rose, but the pain from the wound was becoming increasingly intense. He tried to sit up, but a wave of dizziness washed over him.Despite his efforts to steady himself, he accidentally knocked over a nearby water glass. Hearing the commotion, Finley rushed into

    In the chaos, Anastasia placed her hand on Jonathan's chest while trying to help him dry off. However, Jonathan recoiled in disgust and grabbed her wrist."Ouch... Jonathan..."Anastasia winced in pain as Jonathan gripped her wrist, looking at him with a face full of aggrievement. Lucas watched the two of them with great interest.Jonathan was about to let go of Anastasia's hand, but suddenly, his gaze froze as he spotted a familiar figure at the hospital room door. Rose … Why was she here?During Jonathan's moment of shock, Lucas's teasing voice rang in his ear."She didn't mean it. She's just concerned about you. Look, you've hurt her."Jonathan's eyes flickered, seemingly afraid that Lucan would notice Rose, and he quickly averted his gaze."Are you okay?"Jonathan released his grip on Anastasia's wrist, showing rare concern. Anastasia was surprised by this sudden show of care from him, but she quickly realized what was happening.She shook her head and said, "I'm fine."S

    With those words, Miles hung up the phone. Zac had no chance to ask more questions, but he didn't dare delay. He immediately drove toward Stellar Lounge.Just as he left, Anastasia returned to Young Estate. From behind, she recognized Zac's figure."Why is Mr. Gibson here?"She was somewhat surprised. Zac, Jonathan, and Miles used to be good friends who could talk about anything.However, with Harriette missing, Jonathan and Miles severed ties, and Miles also distanced himself from Zac. They hadn't been in much contact for many years, so why would he suddenly come to visit?"Last night, Mr. Gibson got drunk. Mr. Miles brought him back and let him stay overnight. Mr. Gibson just came to find something he left behind, but I don't know what it was."He seems a bit strange. He asked about Ms. Rose. But it's not that surprising. Being in Aquastead, Mr. Gibson might know Ms. Rose."The butler finished speaking and went about his business. However, Anastasia stood motionless in place f

    Rose found it amusing."You love Kelly, and I've granted your wish to be with her. Aren't you two already together? Besides, I have a husband. What nonsense are you talking about marrying me?"She glanced at the blinking red indicator light on the camera and had a bad feeling. Nixon noticed her gaze. As he thought about his arrangements, a smug and crazed expression appeared on his face."It's been so long. Who's your husband after all? I haven't had the chance to meet him yet, but it doesn't matter."Smiling, he tapped the camera."Do you think he'll divorce you after he sees your scandal?"Rose understood his implication."Don't even think about it, Nixon."Rose struggled to get up. If it were a normal situation, Nixon wouldn't be able to touch her. But now, she had been drugged. She felt weak and found it extremely difficult even to stand.Seeing her like this, Nixon was at ease. In his eyes, Rose was under his control now. He wanted to enjoy the pleasure of humiliating her

    The kick sent a sharp pain through Nixon's chest, almost making him spit out blood."Rose, you—"Even so, he still wanted to convince Rose to take responsibility.However, this time, before he could finish his sentence, Finley stomped down on his chest. Finley's features were already rugged, and his darkened face looked even more fierce.With just a glance, Nixon was scared into silence. Rose's gaze lingered on the camera for a long time. Eventually, she reached out and grabbed the camera, as if ending the humiliation she had just experienced.Only then did Finley and Zac notice the presence of the camera. With their intelligence, they quickly understood its purpose.When Rose walked out of the room, having already put some distance between them, Finley landed a fierce punch on Nixon's face.Instantly, Nixon saw stars, and a buzzing sound echoed in his ears."Nixon, you beast!"Finley's gaze was fierce as if he wanted to end Nixon right there. However, he had to leave this m

    Jonathan hadn't returned to Rose's place for three days. That was because he was trapped.For some unknown reason, Eleanor suddenly decided to take care of him personally.Although "personally taking care" of him didn't mean doing everything herself, she spent most of her time in the hospital.Jonathan felt like he was glued to the ICU bed.Eleanor seemed to genuinely care for him. Even before visiting hours, she was dressed in sterile clothing, hiding by the bedside, watching all the machines connected to Jonathan."Jonathan, you really need to get better.

    The plate of fried eggs in front of Rose looked… reasonably okay."Hurry, sit down." Clover was eager and couldn't wait to receive praise from Rose.He personally handed the fork to Rose and watched as she took a bite of the egg. "How is it? How is it?" he asked.He felt that he had already used up ten percent of the skills he learned.Who knew how many eggs he messed up during that hour in the kitchen? But this time, it was actually successful, and he could even earn Rose's praise… right?But as soon as Rose took a bite, she heard a crunching sound.The sound wasn't loud, but Clover was right next to Rose, so he heard it clearly.Even Elijah, who was nearby, vaguely heard it.The most unsettling thing that happened was when everything suddenly went quiet.Rose felt a rush of panic and instinctively stopped moving her mouth.

    "In three days, I wish you success, and wish myself success as well!" Lizzie declared.Kelly was dumbfounded. She understood Lizzie wishing her success, but wishing herself success?Kelly didn't really understand, but she still nodded in agreement, saying, "Here's to our success."Lizzie must have felt that she had definitely and flawlessly succeeded.Lizzie understood that there were things Kelly didn't know, so she didn't offer any explanations and had no intention of helping Kelly understand. It was her own matter, her own plan, her own future!…That night, Jonathan didn't come back.Rose was originally waiting for Jonathan when she received a call from Clover. He informed her that Jonathan had something important come up and couldn't make it, so she shouldn't wait for him.Before hanging up, he said mysteriously, "Rose, tomorrow, Uncle Elijah and I will come to see you, and when we do, I have a surprise for you."Surprise?

One was a stepmother, and the other was the son left behind by the first wife.This time, Jonathan's disguise was solely to deceive Lizzie.Lizzie had repeatedly plotted against Rose, so how could she genuinely be concerned about Jonathan?Amidst Leonard's thoughts, there was a commotion coming from the direction of the operating room."Jonathan…" Eleanor called out. She quickly hurried over with the help of her walking cane.The others quickly followed and finally saw Jonathan being wheeled out from the operating room.He kept his eyes tightly shut, with the wounds from the car accident still visible on his face. His hands, feet, and chest were covered, but they could clearly see the lack of life on his face.After the car accident, there didn't seem to be any improvement at all."Jonathan, Jonathan, it's Grandma.

    The atmosphere at the dining table was extremely strange.Elijah and Clover, smiling warmly, served Rose some food. "Rose, have some of this. You love it..."The food was placed on the plate in front of Rose. Then, Jonathan promptly said, "Wifey, I made this."Jonathan looked at Rose, his face clearly saying, "Wifey, praise me.""Ugh! This tastes awful!"Clover clearly had a disdain for Jonathan, and it was written all over his face without any attempt to hide it. He picked at her food, took a bite, and felt like spitting it out. But he had come with the intention of having lunch with Rose and ended up going there without having eaten lunch.He didn't get to eat lunch, and his frustration left him feeling full.Although he was still a bit miffed, as soon as the food entered his mouth, he realized he was actually a little hungry.]He hadn't expected Jonathan's cooking skills to be, well… quite good?He had to "reluctantly" swallow it down when his original intention was to spit

    Jonathan's voice clearly expressed dissatisfaction.Rose felt a bit uneasy. She focused on keeping her composure, appearing as though she hadn't heard anything.Nearby, Jonathan, sitting on the couch, furrowed his brows.Something felt off, very off.He had been watching Rose for a long time, and usually, she should have felt his gaze by now and looked back at him. Then there would be a moment of eye contact, which would set the stage for him to make his next move.But…Was she not aware of being watched?Jonathan tried winking and making himself noticeable, but she still didn't respond.Something felt off, really off!So, he had no choice but to try a different approach. "Wifey…."He called out to Rose, but she still didn't respond.Jonathan furrowed his brow even more. Was it because he wasn't loud enough?"Wifey…" he called out again.There was still no response. Was his charm not strong enough?"Wifey…" he called out again.Every time Rose heard him call out "wifey,"

    The look in Miles' eyes was chilling.Miles always looked at her warmly, so how could this be any different?Before long, the coldness in his eyes vanished, and when she looked into them again, there was warmth once more.But just now… was it her imagination? No, it wasn't!The coldness she felt had sent a distinct shiver through her heart; it was no illusion.Kelly furrowed her brows. She was determined to figure it out.As she was trying to piece things together, she heard Miles slowly say, "I only have one sister left. What should I do?"His tone was filled with anguish.Kelly snapped back to reality, determined to be supportive at a time when Miles was in pain. She reassured him, saying, "Miles, I will be by your side for the rest of my life!"There was only one sister left… Of course, it was her!"Is ten percent of the shares enough?" Miles immediately asked.If calming Miles earlier was her task, then after hearing his question now, she became fully alert.It wasn't e

    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.

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?
