Kelly was panicking inside under Miles' gaze. All of a sudden, a thought came to mind: if she admitted that she was Ms. Flora, she'd win this competition for sure!

Kelly couldn't help but feel delighted, knowing that Jonathan was watching her right now from somewhere behind the scenes.

She said humbly, "Yes. I didn't want to reveal my identity at first, but I forgot to leave out the signature in my sketch this time. By the time I thought about changing it, it was too late, so … "

Kelly knew her lie wouldn't stand up to question one day, but by that time she would've already won Jonathan's heart over. So, she had nothing to fear!

To her surprise, when she finished speaking, Rose chuckled lightly beside her. Kelly was about to ask her why she was laughing when Miles laughed as well. It was dripping in sarcasm and disdain.

"Did you know, I happened to meet Ms. Flora in person a couple of days ago, right here in Aquastead? You're not who I met up with at all," Miles exclaimed.

    The host received Jonathan's instruction. Without the slightest delay, he said, "It turns out that Rose is Ms. Flora. This flame symbol is her trademark, and it's identical. How could it appear in Ms. Kelly's work? The only explanation ..."He had barely uttered these words when another exceptionally pleasant voice chimed in."The only explanation isn't that Rose stole Kelly's design, but rather, Kelly stole her design ..."As the words trailed off, the owner of the voice had already taken the stage. Everyone gazed in astonishment at Ezra, who was dressed in an all-white suit. However, Ezra only had eyes for Rose. He strolled over to her while ignoring the others and purposefully bent slightly, his handsome face coming level with hers. His amorous eyes sparkled with a mischievous charm."Is that so, Rose?"Rose's breath caught as she was taken aback by his smile. Perhaps from this surprise, a sudden dizziness overcame her. Subconsciously, she took a step back, losing her balan

    "Clearly, I was about to become the champion and gain immense fame; I could even catch Mr. Finch's attention. It's all because of you ... all because of you that everything has been ruined! You've ruined everything, so how about using this hand to make amends?"Kelly viciously grabbed Rose's injured left arm. "Without this hand, your talent and beauty won't matter anymore. Let's see how those men will protect you!"She exerted more pressure, causing Rose to tremble with pain. Blood oozed from the wound, and Rose tried to push her away. Nevertheless, she was too weak at that moment.Just as she was about to lose consciousness from the pain, Kelly was suddenly kicked away with great force."Ah!" she exclaimed.In the next moment, Rose found herself in familiar arms. In a daze, she saw her star escort husband's worried face. "Hubby," she subconsciously called out before slipping into unconsciousness.Kelly had initially intended to curse. However, when she saw the person in fron

    An hour later, the auction was coming to an end. When Rose woke up, she overheard a conversation between the two nurses who were staying to look after her. "Oh my goodness, 500 million! The couple's rings sold for a staggering 500 million!""And the fire opal necklace, they were all bought by Mr. Finch ..."They were excited as they gossiped. They had overheard the commotion from the auction outside; there were at least three parties continuously bidding, creating an insane atmosphere."I wonder who the final lucky owner of that couple of rings will be ...""That's obvious, given how nervous Mr. Finch was for Ms. Shaffer just now ..."They exchanged glances while brimming with envy. However, upon seeing Rose had awakened, their expressions suddenly changed.The hospital director had warned them not to mention Jonathan in front of Rose. Furthermore, they couldn't reveal to her that he had saved her."Ms. Shaffer ..." one of the nurses said, looking concerned.Rose's mind was f

    "So, why do you want to find him?" Jonathan asked, his voice laced with frustration.A chill emanated from him, sending shivers down Rose's spine. She didn't have time to ask him what was bothering him as she explained, "Of course, to retrieve the couple rings. I heard that the rings were auctioned, and I want to keep them for myself. I need to stop them from signing the contract."Jonathan scoffed and said, "It's just a pair of rings. What's the big deal?""How could it not be a big deal!" Rose's immediate instinct was to keep those rings. It wasn't because of her design, but rather the strange feeling she had developed when she saw the finished product.The host mentioned that someone had turned her design into a finished product. While she hadn't confirmed it, she was certain that the person was her star escort husband. She glanced at Jonathan.Their marriage had been nothing but a transaction, but she still wanted to keep something. With the one-month deadline approaching,

    Chelsea was so scared that she immediately hung up the phone."What happened?" Jamie asked worriedly.Chelsea knew all too well what the gasping sounds from the call meant. She absolutely couldn't let Jamie know what Kelly was like in private.Hence, she lied to him, "I still can't reach her. What should we do? If something happens to Kelly, it's all because of Rose!"As she thought about how Rose had ruined Kelly's reputation and future, she grew increasingly resentful. She immediately started crying. Jamie's expression darkened. He had ordered the creation of a car accident and used the online trolls to suppress Rose's public image in an attempt to ruin her and prevent her from inheriting Celeste Jewels. However, Rose had unexpectedly won the championship and her reputation had skyrocketed."Rest assured, if something happens to Kelly, I'll make sure that Rose lives a fate worse than death," he said with full determination.Chelsea bit her lip as she thought about the gaspi

    Aquastead General Hospital. Early in the morning, a bouquet was delivered to the hospital room. Rose saw the name on the card's signature."Ezra?"As Jonathan entered the hospital room, he heard her calling Ezra's name. His face instantly darkened as he swiftly walked up to her and took the card from her hand. Then, he threw it into the trash can along with the flowers. Rose was left bewildered. Suddenly, she recalled Ezra's face, which bore a striking resemblance to her star escort husband. She was about to ask something when Jonathan's phone rang. Realizing it was a call from Ezra, he decisively hung up the call. One minute later, Ezra sent a text message."I'm right outside the hospital. Do you need me to come up and see you? Also, should I meet Rose?"A hint of sharpness gleamed in Jonathan's eyes. He walked out of the hospital room and made a phone call. Within moments, someone answered."Bro ..."Outside, in a red Ferrari, Ezra's amorous eyes sparkled with a smile. What

    Kelly wanted to grab Rose's hand, but she recoiled in disgust. A fleeting trace of hurt appeared on Kelly's face, but she quickly feigned indifference. She turned to Maya, who had accidentally bumped into Rose a moment ago, and said, "Maya, please apologize to Rose."Maya stared at Rose with disdain as she said, "Rose? Oh, it's Ms. Flora, isn't it? I'm sorry; I just happened to be walking by and didn't see you getting out of the car. You're not mad at me, are you?"In reality, she had made a bet with Mandy and the others nearby. If she could knock Rose to the ground and embarrass her, they would all play matchmaker for her with the handsome guy she had her eye on. Jackson had eventually dumped her; she considered it Rose's fault. Her eyes revealed a simmering hatred as she approached Rose, intending to teach her a lesson. Rose had recently recovered from a car accident, and Maya didn't believe she could do anything to her. However, Rose saw through her intentions at a glance.

    Rose fixed a gaze upon the person sitting across from her, a hint of disgust lurking in her eyes. Just as she was about to leave, Nixon suddenly grabbed her hand. She instinctively jerked her hand away and splashed a glass of water onto his face."Rose, you ..." Nixon seethed. "I see you're jealous, aren't you? You're envious that Kelly is marrying me, but you dare not vent your anger on her. You're afraid of exposing your true nature to others."Jealous? Rose had just taken a step forward but halted abruptly. She turned slowly to face and stare at him as if he were a fool. "Envious of a scoundrel like you? Marrying you is nothing to be jealous of."Nixon did not react with anger to being called a scoundrel. He believed Rose had married someone else as revenge on him, making it impossible for him to acquire Celeste Jewels. For some time now, he had been struggling to fill the financial hole of the projects. It was all because of Rose. Now, he was marrying Kelly, who would brin

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.

    That strange feeling in the air today hadn't faded since it began. Rose had the strange urge to find out where it came from. What would the result be?She ignored Henrietta's frantic cries. Her gaze slid past her and fell on Carl. She asked once more, "What do you intend to do?""What do I intend to do?" Carl sneered and continued, "The Finches sent me here to a psychiatric facility."He then chuckled. "Do I look insane to you?"Rose was speechless.Yes, very much so.Carl's heart was filled with genuine hatred. Being sent to the psychiatric facility was Ezra's doing. Ezra clearly wanted him to experience what his mother, Nancy, had suffered back then. During his time here, they injected him with drugs. He knew exactly what those drugs were doing to his body. It was the knowledge that filled him with terror. This was exactly what Ezra wanted. He even felt that he was mentally ill now.Hatred flared in his eyes. "No, I'm not sick. I don't have a mental illness! I don't have a m

If he hurt Henrietta again… Once she thought of Miles, she immediately followed Henrietta. She tailed her and realized Henrietta was darting aimlessly through the corridors. She peered through the glass door of each room to check inside. Once she was sure the person inside wasn't Carl, she would move on to the next room.Was that how she planned to find him? She had to go through the facility even if she wanted to see Carl. She would at least be able to guarantee her safety that way."Etta…" said Rose. She wanted to stop Henrietta so she could provide her information to the facility to meet Carl. However, just as she called out to Henrietta, she heard Henrietta's hoarse voice. "Carl!"The next instant, Rose

    Rose stopped in her tracks and turned around, surprised to see the person behind her. Anastasia?"Don't…" Anastasia looked anxious. But before she could finish, someone from behind bumped into her, causing her to let go of Rose's hand.The person immediately apologized. "Sorry, I… I'm in a rush." The person looked frightened but quickly stepped into the elevator.As the elevator door was about to close, someone inside asked Rose, "Ms. Shaffer, aren't you coming?"For some reason, Rose entered the elevator."Rose…" Anastasia wanted to stop her, but as she reached out, the elevator door closed, leaving her standing alone.She tried to stop her, but she failed, so what else could she do?Rose… Since Miles left Regalia, Harriette had been behaving herself, but today, she was acting weird.

    Harriette was warning Anastasia. If she interfered, she would "take care" of her.Anastasia's eyes flickered with surprise, and she swiftly looked away. After that, she quietly left the airport with the two of them.On the way back to the company, Harriette deliberately separated Anastasia from her and Rose. Anastasia took a car on her own, while Harriette and Rose shared one.In the car, Rose couldn't stop thinking about the look Anastasia had given her earlier. She felt that Anastasia had something she wanted to say to her.Rose sensed that ever since Harriette returned, Anastasia had changed entirely. She was no longer as aggressive as before. But despite Anastasia's change, they still didn't interact much.What could she possibly want to say to her?"Rose? Rose?" Harriette called her twice before Rose finally reacted. She was immediately met with Harriette's pout. "Rose, what were you daydreaming about? You weren't listening to me, were you?"Rose didn't respond. She tried t

    Harriette was referring to Carl.Miles frowned instantly, as though worried that she might get hurt again.However, Harriette immediately reassured him, "Don't worry, Miles. As long as you're by my side, he won't be able to hurt me again."Miles thought for a moment, and his brows began to relax."Okay." Miles agreed for Harriette to meet Carl."Be good. I'll go visit Rose. She was scared last night too, but luckily nothing happened to her. Otherwise, her fate, as well as Jon's and Ezra's would be very different."Miles didn't hide his concern for Rose in front of Harriette."Go ahead, Miles. I'll visit her later today as well." Harriette said kindly.The moment Miles left the office, the smile on her face instantly faded."Such a shame…" She sighed, lamenting at Rose's luck. It would be ideal for her if something had happened between Ezra and Rose in the greenhouse.If so, Rose would have never had the chance to be with Jonathan, and there wouldn't be so much commotion at th

    For a moment, there was only silence from the other end of the line. Lizzie didn't respond to Harriette's question."Madam?" Harriette called out cautiously.It was as if she'd flipped a switch because what came after was Lizzie's sharp questioning. "Did you already know that Rose and Jonathan were married?"Even over the phone, Harriette felt uneasy. "Answer me! Did you know?" Lizzie raised her voice.Harriete gulped. "I only realized later that the person Rose married was Mr. Finch. Madam, I wasn't trying to keep it from you. I just…""Just what?" Lizzie didn't believe that Harriette hadn't hidden the truth intentionally.In the past, Lizzie would have definitely punished Harriette for her dishonesty, but at that moment, there were more pressing matters than punishing Harriette.Lizzie forced down her anger. When she left the Finch Manor the night before, she hadn't returned to Cyrus's residence. Instead, she went to a luxury condominium she had secretly purchased.She'd sp

    Jonathan understood what Ezra meant. "No matter what help you need, you can always ask Finley."By the time Rose came back downstairs, the serious expressions that Jonathan and Ezra had previously worn were replaced by smiles.Jonathan was preparing to send Rose to the Youngs, but right after they stepped out, they saw a luxury car parked outside the house, with Elijah standing beside it. Standing far apart, the two men locked eyes.Jonathan looked shocked at first, but the shock quickly disappeared. Elijah had most probably investigated Jonathan inside out, so it made sense that he knew the location of Jonathan's new house.Jonathan took the hint and handed Rose over to Elijah.When Rose reached the office, everyone she met gave her an oddly happy look."Ms. Shaffer, congratulations!""Ms. Shaffer, thank you so much!"Rose felt strange about receiving congratulations. What had happened that people were congratulating her? And thanks? Why were they thanking her?Rose was confu
