Anastasia couldn't defend herself under her gaze. Noticing that Miles was walking toward them from not far away, she didn't dare to ask for trouble. She forced a smile and walked away wisely.Rose let out a cold snort. Then, she heard the low laughter of the man behind her. She turned around and saw Miles, who was dressed in a suit and looked elegant.Her eyes and smile changed in a second as she said sincerely, "Miles, I'm sorry. I didn't tell you that I'd be here today."She was a bit guilty. Since Miles didn't give her an invitation, she assumed that he didn't want her to come."I'm worried that if you come here, someone will cause trouble for you. I have a lot of things to do today, and I'm afraid that I won't be able to take care of it. Then, you'll suffer," Miles hurriedly explained.Upon seeing that Anastasia seemed to be deflated before leaving, he was a little relieved. Thinking about Oliver's announcement just now, he still couldn't hide his worry."Rosie, if you don't
Upon seeing that Oliver was alone, Rose immediately stepped forward to push the wheelchair."Why are you here? Are you here to get some fresh air too?"She was looking for a topic.Oliver answered very directly, "I'm here to find you.""Do you have anything to find me?" Rose asked tentatively.It just so happened that she wanted to find him too. What a coincidence! She planned to resolve Oliver's problem with her first before proposing to return to the position of design director.However, Oliver said, "I'll pretend that you didn't say those words you said last time in the hospital. Kelly is your sister. You have lived together in the Shaffer family for so many years. It's fate. In the future, I hope that you can take care of each other. So, you should find a chance to apologize to her. We're still a family."His tone was gentle and kind, but Rose frowned upon hearing his words."Rosie …""Grandpa, please wait a moment," Rose interrupted him when he was about to continue.The
Rose reassured Jonathan. "I'm fine."Even so, her uneasiness didn't dissipate after that moment of pain. Her uneasiness lingered in her heart, and even her smile became stiff. He noticed her solemn look and held her hand. "I'm here."He wouldn't put her in danger as long as he was here. They looked at each other and headed toward the main hall. Their figures were particularly dazzling in Clover's eyes."They're not a good match!" he frowned while saying.He implied that Jonathan wasn't worthy of Rose. Thinking of what she said, Clover focused on Emily's slender hand. A perfect match? He wasn't in such a relationship with Emily.Putting his thoughts away, he stepped into the door and chased after them. In the hall, everyone noticed Jonathan and Clover, who suddenly arrived.Those who didn't know about them could tell their identities by looking at their unusual aura. While those who knew their identities didn't dare to talk with them.Everyone was speculating from a distance
"I ... I saw it too.""I also saw Mr. Young Senior and Ms. Rose on the bridge."…Rose couldn't defend herself. Everyone looked at her as if she was the culprit who pushed Oliver down.Kelly felt a little proud. She would achieve her goal if he died. But now his life or death was unknown. It would be great if she could slander Rose successfully. She clenched her fists tightly and rushed toward Rose."Did you do it? Grandpa is so kind to you! How can you be so cruel ..."She glared at Rose fiercely. She seemed to vent her displeasure because he still let Rose work as the design director. When she got emotional, she gave Rose a hard push.Rose was stunned and caught off guard. Under that force, she took a few steps back and failed to steady herself. Just as she was about to fall, someone helped her and pulled her into his arms.It was Jonathan. She sensed his familiar scent. At the same time, Clover stood beside her and held her wrist. Behind her, Emily also walked over and loo
"Hmph, you finally admit it! Then why did you deny it just now? If something wrong happens to Grandpa, we won't let you go!" Anastasia angrily scolded while Kelly was crying.But Rose seemed not to hear anything. She curled up, leaning against Jonathan. Some vague scenes ran in her mind."She is my new granddaughter ... What is your name?""Rosie ..."An old man's voice echoed in her mind, accompanied by many flashing images. In the images, he looked kind and doting.As the scenes kept changing, the swelling and pain in her head gradually became more severe. She even broke out in cold sweat. Jonathan first noticed something wrong with her.He touched her forehead. Then, he was so startled by the high temperature that he retracted his hand. "Rosie, what's wrong with you?"She vaguely heard someone calling her. What was wrong with her?"I ..." she only uttered a word and became more confused.When her consciousness gradually faded, she felt someone picking her up. The figure i
"Where are you?"Kelly didn't dare to ignore him. She wanted to confirm what he was going to do."I'm opposite Harmony Hospital. You can see me when you come out."He seemed to expect that she would follow him. After he finished speaking, he hung up the phone. She was stunned for a while. Her uneasiness became more intense.She quickly calmed herself down. When she returned to the ward, she pretended to be tired. "I'm hungry. I'll go to eat something."No one answered her. She glanced at the two people in the ward, bit her lips, and left quietly. After walking out of Harmony Hospital, she looked across the hospital.Sure enough, she saw a man in black. He waved to her as if he was sure she had seen it. Then, he turned around and walked into the alley behind him. She immediately chased after him.The man walked fast. After turning several corners, the man was nowhere to be seen. She sped up and trotted forward to find him. Suddenly, someone reached out from the side and pulle
At some point, the man already untied Kelly. She was undressing herself."Kelly, you're so passionate."He took off his mask, revealing his face. Although he was much thinner and paler than before, he was her acquaintance. It was Nixon!He looked coldly at her, who was so defensive and disgusted with him. Now, she was sticking on him seductively. His sneer grew thicker.In the past, when she was with him, her passion was always youthfulness and innocence. He cherished her.He once regarded her as his true love and cared for her with all his heart. But now, he knew her true colors."Kelly, how could you do that to me?"Thinking about everything he had seen clearly, he was full of hatred.He suddenly held her wrist. Seeming to vent his resentment toward her for many years of hypocrisy, he left embarrassing marks on her body without mercy.The room was full of enthusiasm. Meanwhile, two wards in the hospital were eerily quiet. Kelly hadn't returned for a long time, but no one car
Before Anastasia finished speaking, Rose interrupted her. She frowned and looked at her. Roses stopped what she was doing and walked to her."Grandpa will wake up, so don't say anything nonsense," she warned.Her voice was very soft, but Anastasia could sense a hint of cruelty. It seemed that if she said something unlucky again, she would slap her in the face to teach her a lesson.The feeling of being suppressed made her feel extremely aggrieved. The more Rose warned her not to talk nonsense, the more she insisted on talking.Hence, she met her gaze and said, "What I said is the truth. He's been in this state. If he doesn't wake up, what's the difference from dying?"Before she could finish speaking, Rose raised her hand without hesitation and slapped her in the face. The snap resounded throughout the ward.Anastasia was caught off guard. The pain was accompanied by anger, burning all over her face."You …" She stared at Rose. She didn't expect her to hit her."Do you know w
Really? How could that possibly be true?Lizzie and Jonathan had a seemingly calm relationship on the surface, but underneath, there was a deep-seated conflict. 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. You
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. 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
