Rose silently rolled her eyes. She observed Kelly's posture while leaning on Jonathan's chest. She originally wanted to avoid arousing suspicion in public, but she suddenly changed her mind.Kelly bit her lip. She had no intention of explaining. She was waiting—whether Rose got jealous and angry, or she walked away. It would be better if she hit her out of anger.She could use this as an excuse to pretend to be pitiful and beg for mercy. However, Rose suddenly leaned her head against Jonathan's arms and rubbed his chest.It looked like she was about to release herself from his arms, but she simply rubbed against his chest. She rubbed her face against his chest instead of rubbing her head.As if not satisfied, she put her hands around his waist.Then, she met Kelly's gaze, imitating her innocent and harmless look as she said, "Misunderstanding? I didn't misunderstand."Kelly twitched the corner of her mouth.Unwilling to give up, she continued to explain, "Rose, Mr. Finch asked m
Rose furrowed her brows. She was still angry and had no intention of paying attention to him."Rosie …" Jonathan called again. His voice was softer than before. Rose turned her face to the other side, her posture self-evident."Rosie …"She could hear the coquettish tone in his voice. What's going on with coquettishness? Did he think that by acting coquettishly, she wouldn't be angry?He knew clearly that she didn't like Kelly, and he even asked her to stay away from Kelly. If she stayed away from her, it was probably easier for him to date her."Rosie …" he called again.Feeling irritable, Rose simply closed her eyes, not even wanting to give him a look. He still called her Rosie even if he dated Kelly."Rosie …"The voice was getting closer and closer, with a hint of flattery and stronger coquettishness. Rose finally became impatient."Why are you calling?" Her tone was full of displeasure. As she spoke, she impatiently opened her eyes and turned her head, trying to expr
Rose took a breath. She thought there were more movements, but the steady breathing of the man behind him was heard. Was he falling asleep so quickly?After the tension passed, she noticed the flash of disappointment in her heart, and her cheeks suddenly became hot. She forced herself to close her eyes again, but she couldn't fall asleep.The breathing behind her was steady.She couldn't help but curse silently, "It's my bed, but he's sleeping peacefully!"As if feeling unsatisfied, she turned around. In the darkness, the two of them were facing each other.When her eyes gradually adapted to the darkness, she raised her hand and placed her fingers slightly above Jonathan's face. Then, she slowly moved her fingers in the air and traced the outline of his face.She whispered, "You're dating Kelly! How can you bear such a bitch?"She even asked me not to misunderstand. What could I misunderstand? Your taste is not that bad, right?"And she's asking me to dine with you? Her attitud
Curious about what she was going to do, Rose resisted the urge to hang up the phone."Rose, please don't be angry with me about what happened last night, okay? I'll kneel for you right now. Can you forgive me?"She spoke so sincerely that Rose almost thought that her affectation at Aquastead Hotel last night was her hallucination. What trick was she going to play?Being confused, she mocked mercilessly, "Then just kneel."With that, she was about to hang up the phone. Just then, an old man's exclamation came from the other side of the phone. "Kelly, what are you doing?"The old man's voice sounded familiar to her. She wanted to hear more in case she could remember something, but Kelly quickly hung up the phone. She furrowed her brows.What trick was she playing again? She knew that she had bad intentions, but she wasn't interested in what she was going to do.However, the old man's voice just now was very much like the old man who called her name in her dream.She closed her
Oliver's birthday banquet will be held at Young Estate. Jonathan received an invitation from the Young family, but he had no plans to go.Miles didn't send an invitation letter to Rose. Ever since she had lost her memory, he became more and more protective of her.He didn't want her to appear on such an occasion as he was worried that she would be wronged.A few days before Oliver's birthday, Miles was busy preparing for the banquet. Meanwhile, Anastasia was in charge of Young's House of Jewels.In contrast, Kelly seemed to have suddenly lost interest in the position of design director. She had changed her temper and accompanied Oliver at Young Estate every day.She even prepared food and drinks for him."Mr. Young Senior, Ms. Kelly is filial," Patrick praised Kelly.Not only Patrick but also other people in the villa had a good impression of Kelly.Oliver looked at Kelly indulgently as he said, "Yes, she's indeed filial. Seeing her is like seeing Rietta. If she's here, I wonde
The scissors glowed coldly in the moonlight. When the sharp blade touched the expensive fabric, it was easily cut. Even the sound was particularly pleasant.For some reason, Oliver felt a little regretful after cutting off a corner. He stopped suddenly and took a closer look. After all, the suit was broken. A complex emotion filled his heart. He felt a little guilty.He sighed and threw the scissors aside. He couldn't help but murmur, "Rosie, you should be more obedient."Although he and Rose met not long ago, he also knew her temperament. She was straightforward and casual. She was not greedy for vanity, nor did she follow the convention.She didn't change her previous rules of conduct just because she became the adopted granddaughter of the Young family. He appreciated it in his heart.He couldn't bear it after all. At that moment, he decided that if Rose came to the birthday banquet tomorrow and apologized to Kelly, he would forget what she said that day in the hospital.Thi
"Rietta, I won't let Kelly suffer any injustice. I'll give her what should be given to you."The hidden meaning in his words almost made Kelly scream with excitement. However, she held it back. She knew that the knot in Oliver's heart was Celeste.As long as his guilt was aroused, he would compensate her without restraint.She wiped a few tears and looked at him doubtfully as she asked, "Grandpa, what do you want to give me?"Her innocent and harmless eyes were clear and flawless as if they were not contaminated by the world and had no desire for the outside world. Oliver found it even more lovely."You'll know tomorrow," he said.At tomorrow's birthday banquet, he would not only change Kelly's last name to Young, but he would also draw up a will to declare the heir of Young's House of Jewels.Early the next morning, he asked Patrick to call a lawyer. Through surveillance, Kelly learned that he had drafted a will in which she was the heir. She finally couldn't hold back and danc
The staff, who had never seen Rose, didn't know her identity."Alright, here."Rose didn't hang up the phone. She exited the call interface and showed the electronic invitation to the staff."Okay. Miss, please."After entering the villa, Rose answered Clover's call again, "Clover, are you still there? Are you looking for me?""Nothing. I just missed you."On the other end of the phone, Clover had a gentle smile while telling those ambiguous words. Rose thought he must be a love master. She couldn't help but sympathize with Emily.After greeting, Clover didn't say anything else. After hanging up the phone, Rose stared at the phone in a daze. She wondered if he called her just to tell her that he missed her.She shook her head helplessly. She knew that he was just teasing her, or maybe he was too boring. Anyway, it didn't include any affection between a man and a woman.She shook off her thoughts, trying not to think about him. At this time, Clover was sitting in the study room
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. 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
