Honey, You're a Billionaire?

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. She was about to cause trouble! Anastasia was certain of that. But she didn't know what Harriette was planning to do.

In the elevator, Rose felt uneasy. The elevator reached the first floor. When the door was about to open, a voice came from behind. "Ms. Shaffer, thank you."

Rose was slightly startled. She turned around and saw the person who had bumped into Anastasia earlier. She was also the receptionist who had been bullied by Chloe not long ago, Olivia.

Rose remembered that she had transferred her to another position.

"How's your new job? Are you getting used to it? Rose asked gently.

"Yes, definitely."

It was Olivia's first time standing so close to Rose. The entire time in the elevator, she was so nervous that she held her breath.

At that moment, Rose smiled at her.

Olivia got distracted for a moment, then remembered what she was supposed to do.

She quickly handed Rose an umbrella and said, "Ms. Shaffer, no matter what happens, don't be afraid." After that, she left the elevator in a hurry.

Rose held the umbrella in her hand, confused. Strange. The day was full of strangeness.

Just now upstairs, Anastasia grabbed onto her and said, "Don't."

Don't do what? Rose couldn't understand.

And the staff member just now, whose name she didn't even remember, gave her an umbrella and said, "Don't be afraid."

"Was that Ms. Young? It's pouring outside, and I think I saw her run into the rain. Did something happen? She looked very panicked."

As Rose was lost in thought, she heard a voice. Rose snapped back to reality and remembered Harriette. She ran outside with the umbrella.

From afar, Rose saw Harriette in the rain. Harriette was hailing a taxi.

"Etta..." Rose called out.

The worry in Harriette's heart finally eased. She thought she had miscalculated as Rose hadn't caught up to her for a while. There were already several taxis passing by, but she couldn't get in because Rose hadn't caught up yet. Because of that, Harriette had to stand in the rain. She was drenched.

Harriette turned around and saw Rose with an umbrella. She felt displeased. She was drenched in the rain, while Rose had an umbrella!

She felt resentful, but she needed to focus on the bigger picture. She saw a taxi approaching and immediately stopped it and got in.

In the rearview mirror, Rose saw her leaving. She looked worried and was trying to stop another taxi.

A victorious smile appeared on Harriette's face. Seeing how Rose hadn't been able to hail a taxi yet, she told the driver, "Drive slowly. Wait for my friend. She's behind. Wait for her to catch up."

It would be bad if Rose fell behind.

Rose finally got a taxi and asked the driver to follow Harriette. Luckily, the traffic was slow due to the rain.

Rose's taxi followed Harriette's for

half an hour before finally stopping at their destination. The rain was still heavy. Rose followed Harriette into a building. Harriette was drenched.

Harriette saw Rose when she stepped out. There was water dripping off herself, while Rose... The umbrella was so big that Rose didn't get wet at all, even in such heavy rain. How unfair! "Rose..." Harriette cried. She looked like a mess, so pitiful. She tried her best to make Rose feel sorry for her.

As expected, Rose quickly looked for another set of clothes for Harriette to change into.

"Rose, you're so nice to me." Harriette looked at Rose.

Harriette had a bright smile, but Rose felt a sense of coldness in it. She felt even more strange now.

Rose realized where they were and felt confused. "This is a psychiatric facility."

They were in a psychiatric facility.

Harriette's eyes darkened. "He's here."

Rose immediately understood who she meant by "he".

It was the bodyguard from the Finch family, Carl Larson.

"Miles said that he's here."

Harriette seemed to be recalling the nightmare again. She looked at Rose, scared, but determined. "I don't want to be controlled by fear anymore. I need to see him. I have to." What could Rose say? If Harriette wanted to see him, of course, she would follow her. But a psychiatric facility...

Rose had a bad feeling, especially after entering, she felt a chillness that was following her around. Maybe it was just her imagination, but she couldn't help but feel cautious. "I'll call Ezra. Let him arrange things for us."

The other night at Finch Manor, Ezra had asked Jonathan to hand Carl over. Rose guessed Ezra wanted to handle Carl personally, so the psychiatric facility was probably his doing. Asking Ezra to arrange a meeting between Harriette and Carl should be no problem.

Panic flashed across Harriette's eyes. Ezra? She had completely forgotten about him! She couldn't let Ezra mess up her plan.

She was about to stop Rose, but Rose had already pulled out her phone and dialed Ezra's number.

"Hello?" The call went through. In the tense silence, Harriette heard Rose's voice. "It's fine. You don't have to tell him I called." The situation...

"How was it?" Harriette asked hesitantly.

Rose looked apologetic and explained, "Ezzy... might be busy. It was the housekeeper who picked up the phone."

The housekeeper was recently hired by Jonathan. She was the housekeeper at the villa that he took Ezra to that night.

Ever since Ezra followed them to theThis content © 2024 NôvelDrama.Org.

villa, he hadn't left. But it was

strange. Ezra rarely left the house, yet the housekeeper said he rushed out after taking a call. He even forgot his phone.

"It's fine. We're already here. We can go see him right away." Harriette sighed in relief.

Luckily Ezra hadn't answered the call, so he wouldn't know Rose was there. Harriette had to be quick.

By that time, everything would be set in stone. Even if Ezra found out, he wouldn't be able to change anything.

Harriette schemed in her mind. She couldn't wait. "Rose, wait here. I'll go see him alone."
