"Yes, Mr. Finch," Finley said, not bothering to ask Jonathan to reconsider.

By the time Yara caught up to Jonathan, he had already been ferried off in his car. She watched as the car vanished into the distance. She thought about asking Kate to bring the car around, but she wouldn't catch up to Jonathan in time.

Yara stomped her foot in anger and turned to lash out at Kate.

"Why can't you be a little more proactive? Didn't you see me trip and fall just now? I could have caught up to Jonathan if you'd helped me, but now I've missed my chance because of you! He even smiled at me just now!"

Her face was twisted into a menacing grimace.

Kate had hurried over to Yara. She flinched as the latter threw a fit, but she couldn't help her disbelief. She had seen what happened earlier.

From a spectator's point of view, Jonathan hadn't seemed all that interested in Yara. The only person he cared about was the woman who had come out of Young Estate, and Kate was surprised that Yara hadn't not

    Finley inched closer to Jonathan and whispered, "Mr. Finch, she's the woman who accosted you outside Young Estate. You wanted to make Mrs. Finch jealous, right? Well, Ms. Maize here has the figure and the looks to make Mrs. Finch supremely jealous."The suggestion was bold, and even if Finley didn't think Jonathan's plan to make Rose jealous was a good idea. Alas, he had no choice in the matter other than to play along with Jonathan's plans."Mr. Finch, I came by to thank you and the rest of Rise Entertainment for helping me pave my career in the local entertainment industry. I'm not very familiar with it, which is why I haven't signed with any agency before this. "Imagine how terrible it would be if this had continued," Yara said, pouting like a child. She knew men couldn't resist the masculine urge to protect her if she put on the damsel-in-distress act.However, Jonathan only frowned at her. "Maize… Did you say your last name was 'Maize'?"Many people had that last name, but h

    A few faces flashed through Finley's mind, all belonging to the other male Finch family members from Jonathan's generation.Just then, the elevator doors opened with a ding. Finley looked up to see the most handsome man in the entertainment industry walking toward them. With a face crafted by the angels, the man wore the simple white blouse like he was doing it a favor."M-Mr. Turner?" Finley frowned.Not a lot of people knew that Ezra, the hottest male star in showbiz, was from the Finch family. Rise Entertainment had been established because of him.Finley immediately thought about what Jonathan had said in the elevator. Was Jonathan planning to let Ezra fulfill the marriage alliance with Yara instead?He dared not speak this thought aloud, but the comprehension laced with surprise in his eyes told Jonathan enough."What are you doing here?" Ezra asked sullenly when he saw Jonathan.Though Ezra and Jonathan were siblings, their meetings were always hostile. If one didn't kno

    Ezra leaned against the wall, looking amused as he crossed his arms. He and Yara had never met, but each knew who the other was courtesy of their profession. Ezra was the most handsome man in the entertainment industry with countless female fans. In the past, Yara would have found a way to stir up a potential romance with him for the sake of publicity.However, she had set her sights on Jonathan, who stood at the top of the social food chain and ruled the Finch family. She couldn't be bothered with lesser men like Ezra.She had caught the wicked amusement in Ezra's eyes and knew that he'd heard everything she said. But that didn't matter. She looked away from him, rolling her eyes as she did.Jonathan was somewhere on this floor. He did not like red, but she doubted even he could resist the allure of seeing a woman in white. She couldn't wait to see him, and in her eagerness, she made her way toward the office.She had taken only a few steps when she heard a lazy male voice drawl

  • Honey, You're a Billionaire?   Chapter 397 The Woman Jonathan Loves

    When Yara's question was met with silence, she let loose a torrent of abuse. But just before she hung up, a female voice sounded from the other end."Jonathan is in love with someone."Yara never expected to hear this from a stranger. She asked instinctively, "Who?""Rose Shaffer," came the answer from the stranger on the other end.Yara blinked. "Who the hell is Rose Shaffer?" She had never heard of any Rose Shaffer, who hailed from Regalia."I can't help you with that, but I can tell you that Jonathan is madly in love with Rose. So what should you do if you want to marry the head of the Finch family?" the woman asked.Yara pondered the question. If the woman on the other line was telling the truth and Rose truly existed, she would do anything to come between Rose and Jonathan. But there was something else she needed to know—the identity of her secret messenger.Yara was about to ask when the other person hung up. She stared at her phone silently for a while. She muttered Rose'

    Anastasia noticed Gabriel's gaze toward Rose and understood immediately. There was another protector around Rose.It was Rose again. Anastasia felt particularly uneasy at this moment. If Rose aimed to inherit a portion of the Young family's wealth, Gabriel and Miles would likely support her.The more Anastasia thought about it, the more she felt that this situation couldn't continue. She had to take action and drive Rose out of the Young family and Regalia.During various family gatherings, Rose never showed up. She came to Regalia only for Oliver. Now, with Oliver's funeral settled, she would leave as soon as possible. Thus, Rose found an opportunity to bid farewell to Miles."Miles, I think it's time for me to go back."At the Young Estate's dining room, everyone was having breakfast. However, Rose set down her cutlery first.Since Oliver passed away, a layer of melancholy had crept into Rose's demeanor. She appeared sorrowful, which evoked sympathy from Miles in particular. Mi

    Yara stood by Rose's seat with her arms crossed and her eyebrows raised provocatively even more pronounced than before. "Let's switch here. This spot is better."If Rose couldn't see Yara's intentions now, she was truly naive. In fact, Rose had sensed her ill intentions from the first word Yara spoke. However, she didn't want to stir up trouble.Giving way once was enough, but it didn't mean Rose would tolerate being bullied. This time, Rose decided not to yield.She looked up and met Yara's gaze squarely. "Ms. Maize may not be eyeing the seat I'm in, but something else."Her hostility wasn't baseless. And the reason… Rose vividly remembered Yara as the woman leaning on Jonathan outside the Young Estate. Indeed, it was… trouble.Jonathan's face alone was enough to catch the attention of the woman. Moreover, now that he also held the position of the Finch Group's ruler, there would likely be more flatterers around him.Rose didn't like entanglements, nor did she want to get hersel

    The man realized he had said the wrong thing and immediately stopped talking. Looking at Yara, he noticed her staring grimly outside the cafe. She seemed oblivious to his presence, which relieved him.Others around caught on after his reminder. They immediately recognized that the woman in black was indeed the mysterious woman from the Young family everyone had been curious about recently."What exactly is her connection to the Young family?""She's here to meet a friend, and Mr. Miles had to check on her. Even Mr. Gabriel was on guard outside.""Mr. Gabriel looks more like a bodyguard to her. Her status must be significant."The staff member of the film crew was extremely curious about Rose's identity. Yara felt particularly bitter inside."What's so significant about her? She's just Mr. Young Senior's adopted granddaughter from Aquastead. They don't even share any blood relation. She hasn't contributed anything to the Young family. She simply used some tricks to deceive Mr. You

    Gabriel said, "Rose, then I'm going to head off first."Gabriel bid farewell to Rose. He finally stepped out of the room just as Yvonne's patience was wearing thin. With a bang, the door shut, and Gabriel stood outside the door once again feeling the hostility from Rose's friend.Yvonne couldn't contain herself any longer. She turned back swiftly after shutting the door, asking, "Cousin? How come he is your cousin?"Rose was already seated at the dining table, where Gabriel had thoughtfully laid out all her favorite dishes. Despite her recent lack of appetite, perhaps it was seeing Yvonne that suddenly stirred her hunger.Rose took a sip of some mushroom soup. Then, she looked at Yvonne in confusion. "If not cousin, then what's his relationship with me?"Her innocent gaze made it seem as if she genuinely didn't understand Yvonne's implications. Yvonne's lips twitched slightly, but Rose had already started introducing this "cousin". "He's Gabriel Yones, the only son of the Young

    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. She thought that she had bitten down on a small stone, but how could there be a stone?Rose thought about it—it had to be the eggshell.Eating eggshells

    "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? What surprise?Rose smiled, feeling a hint of an

    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.

    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
