Finley didn't understand Jonathan's intentions—why would he double his salary?Before he could figure it out, Jonathan coughed lightly on the other end of the phone and said, "I didn't mean to yell at you earlier. Rose... she fainted."Finley took some time to regain his composure after Jonathan's surprising explanation. The moment he heard "Rose fainted," his demeanor immediately turned serious."Is Mrs. Finch okay?" His tone was deeply concerned, without any pretense. Jonathan was surprised by his concern for Rose, a hint of danger flickering in his eyes, tinged with a hint of jealousy.But in the next moment, Finley quickly explained, "Mrs. Finch is the person Mr. Finch cares about the most. If anyone harms her, I won't spare them!"Jonathan's menacing expression eased as he stated, "Well, let's start with those who took advantage of the situation with Celeste Jewels due to the Youngs.""Understood, Mr. Finch." Finley accepted the order as if the emotional outburst moments
Rose soon regretted using this approach. After everything ended, Rose felt like her bones had turned to jelly.Meanwhile, her star escort husband was in excellent spirits, leaving Rose feeling deeply disturbed as she gave him a piercing glare. She forcefully drove him out of the room, indifferent to his coaxing outside.While Rose was alone in bed, her mind was filled with echoes of Jonathan's words."What kind of wedding ceremony do you desire?"She had never given thought to the wedding she desired, yet now, a subtle sense of excitement was budding within her.Jonathan stood outside the room he'd been ousted from. Had Zac and Finley caught a glimpse of the smile on his face right now, they would've been utterly stunned, rendered speechless.His mind was filled with the image of Rose's charming presence moments ago, fueling an earnest desire in his heart to give her a wedding ceremony. She must look stunning in a wedding gown!Jonathan's thoughts raced, as if not wanting to was
"Yes, we're ready to sign the contract."Everyone smiled and eagerly handed over the prepared contract to Rose.Rose glanced at the contracts and politely asked with a smile, "What to sign?"A momentary stiffness replaced the smiles on the faces of the crowd.One person hurriedly approached Rose and said, "Ms. Shaffer, might you have forgotten? We're here to sign our collaboration contract. This time, let's not sign for 2 years but extend it to 10. Within these 10 years, our company will be Celeste Jewels' finest partner."Rose remained silent as ever. The person felt a sudden panic, recalling the boss's instructions—if he couldn't seal the deal on this contract today, he would have to leave. It wasn't just him, they all had just exchanged brief pleasantries outside Celeste Jewels' company premises a while ago.Everyone who showed up today got a brutal command from the boss— if the contract wasn't sealed, they were to get lost. As Rose remained silent, someone started to wipe t
"Get out!"Anastasia didn't come back to her senses for a while. Miles was elegant and rarely spoke harshly to others. But he drove her away! She gritted her teeth and left his office unwillingly.After the office door closed, Miles slowly closed his eyes. Everyone in the office thought he had put pressure on those partners, but that was not the case.He was indeed ready to do so, but it was still a step too late. The person who took one step ahead of him would be none other than Jonathan. Jonathan's care for Rose exceeded his expectations....Anastasia left Celeste Jewels. She felt unwilling, so she drove back to Young Estate. The car stopped outside the estate. In the main hall, Oliver pushed his wheelchair out of the room.He looked at the door expectantly as if waiting for someone. In the living room, Kelly noticed his expression. She followed his sight and paid attention to the door.A few minutes later, Anastasia came in. His expectations instantly dimmed."It's not Rosi
Jonathan kept calling Rose "wifey" so smoothly and satisfactorily. Finley couldn't help complaining secretly."Wifey ... Mrs. Finch doesn't even know you're Mr. Finch. If she knows that, she might drive you away ..."Finley sneered in his heart. Jonathan, who originally had a good mood, turned gloomy. He glared coldly at Finley. Finley was slightly startled and felt a little flustered. He immediately smiled flatteringly. "Sir, you're so sincere to Mrs. Finch. She'll feel extremely moved if she knows what you've done."As soon as he finished speaking, Jonathan said displeasedly, "Mrs. Finch? She still doesn't know that I'm Mr. Finch. If she knows that ..."Jonathan didn't finish speaking, but he stared at Finley fiercely. Finley suddenly realized. He had unconsciously spoken out what he had just complained about in his heart!Sensing Jonathan's sharp and murderous gaze, Finley felt that he would be doomed today. After gulping, he was at a loss when his cell phone rang. The caller
Kelly had never had good intentions toward Rose, but she was Oliver's granddaughter.Thinking of Rose's dilemma a few days ago, Miles said lowly, "Rosie, I'm sorry ..."His apology slightly surprised Rose."Don't say that. I should thank you for helping me twice, but I don't want to embarrass you. I'll find a way to deal with the partners myself."She understood his difficulties too well. Oliver raised him from childhood. Oliver was his most important person. So, the granddaughter that Oliver cared about was also important.On the other end of the phone, Miles knew that she had misunderstood. His heart ached slightly, and his guilt became stronger.Finally, he smiled bitterly and said, "It wasn't me."I didn't help you. There was someone else who dealt with the partners."Miles was surprised that Jonathan helped Rose without revealing himself. It was not the Mr. Finch he knew!"Someone else?" she asked subconsciously, "Who's it?"He hesitated for a moment and answered, "It's
"Jamie, something happened at home!" Chelsea's crying and panicked voice made Jamie nervous."What happened? Tell me slowly ..."He reluctantly glanced in the direction where the luxury car was leaving. Soon, he gave up following and hurried back to the Shaffer residence.When he arrived, the police were asking Chelsea about the situation. Seeing him, she immediately ran forward and hugged him while crying.He looked at the situation in the residence. Almost everything got smashed. Nothing was intact. After the police left, she gritted her teeth and cried. "It must be Rose! Even if they destroyed the surveillance, I know she did it!"Jamie, did she know something? Was she avenging her mother?"He looked at the only captures on the surveillance camera. There were a few tall men in black suits.His mind went to the people he had seen downstairs in the Century Tower. He gradually believed that Rose did it. But ..."It's been so long since what happened back then. How could she
Rose was startled by the voice. She stood up and turned around. But there was a screen behind her. She could only vaguely see a man's back.When she was about to walk over, Mr. Finch's voice sounded again."Ms. Shaffer, please take the seat."His voice was low and oppressive. She frowned after hearing that. Yet, she seemed relieved. It would be best if she didn't have to face him."Thank you."She sat down and thanked him for the arrangement, which relaxed her. At least she was at a certain safe distance from him. Even if he wanted to do something bad, she would still have time to react.Jonathan didn't know what she was thinking. He looked satisfied with the surrounding arrangements. Although he didn't like the colorful flowers, Rose must love them.There was also a violinist here. He snapped his fingers to hint the violinist to play the violin. It was melodious and graceful, making the atmosphere more romantic.Rose, who was already relieved, suddenly felt nervous again. What
