Honey, You're a Billionaire?

Chapter 413 It's Just an Illusion if She Doesn't See Him



Jonathan felt a bit disappointed. The woman beside him was intently watching the stage, not sparing him a single glance. Was he not as attractive as the performance on stage? "Ahem... ahem..." Jonathan cleared his throat like he was vying for attention, but his action didn't draw Rose's notice. Instead, it caught someone else's gaze.

Their eyes met... A trace of surprise flashed across both Miles' and Jonathan's faces. Maybe the audience lights were too dim, but with Jonathan's attention solely on Rose, he hadn't noticed Miles' presence. Similarly, Miles hadn't realized Jonathan was there either. With Rose sitting between them, their eyes met for a second. Both gave each other a faint smile before looking away, their smiles vanishing.

On stage, the dancers were performing with great dedication. As the principal dancer, Yvonne executed numerous high-difficulty moves and drew thunderous applause from the audience.

Amid the applause, Rose's heart was bursting with excitement. Yvonne had loved dancing since she was a child. She was talented and had put in extreme effort. Rose was genuinely happy to see her shine onstage at this moment.

Jack sat comfortably in a special box seat within the theatre. He had a selection of juice and snacks laid out before him.

The box seat was made of a special glass that was invisible from the outside but offered a clear view from within. This box seat was set up for special guests.

A beauty next to him with a voluptuous figure had initially sat in her own seat. But at some point, she had moved onto Jack's lap and clung to him as if trying to regain his attention.

Yet, Jack's eyes remained fixed on the stage, intently following the brightest star. The beauty beside him was increasingly anxious seeing the light in his eyes.

"Mr. Jack, Mr. Jack?" the beauty called out several times before finally drawing Jack's attention with a hum.

"Mr. Jack, do you know that I used to study dance too? I dance better than those onstage. Could you help get me into this dance troupe?" The woman wrapped her arms around Jack's neck.

Jack knew exactly what she was capable of. She was good at pleasing men with her moves, but compared to the dancers on stage...

His eyes drifted back to the shining dancer on stage. He patted the woman's waist. "You don't have what it takes."

"What do you mean I don't have what it takes? Mr. Jack, you're from the Finch family. Getting me into this dance troupe should be a piece of cake for you, right?" the woman whispered as she leaned into Jack's ear.

The words piqued his interest. The flattery pleased him immensely, but that wasn't all he wanted. Jack stared at the stage and pointed at Yvonne.

"Alright. I'll get you in. But remember, she's the first..." He then pinched the woman's thigh playfully with a chuckle. "Behave, and I'll make it worth your while."

They exchanged smiles.

On stage, Yvonne focused on her every move and every emotion. She was a professional dancer who was always striving to perform her best.

Today, she was especially motivated because she knew Rose was watching her from the audience. After the performance, she specifically glanced at the seat where Rose was as she took her bow.

Yvonne threw a flying kiss when she saw Rose. Her playful gesture not only touched Rose's heart but others as well. Then, it was time for acknowledgments on stage.

After getting off stage, Yvonne's first act was to retrieve her phone and message Rose. "You have to come to the celebration party with me!"

Rose was overjoyed when she looked at her phone. Of course, she would join Yvonne for the celebration.

Jonathan's jealousy intensified beside her. His thoughts had been occupied with watching out for Miles during the performance. Now that the performance was over, Rose might leave with Miles if he didn't act soon. Jonathan moved closer to Rose. "Wifey..."

Just one word spoken in a

deliberately low voice overpowered the acknowledgments happening onstage. Rose felt her mind go blank as if a current ran through her body. Jon... Jonathan?

"Ha..." How could it be? Wasn't the seat beside her supposed to be Yara's? How could it be Jonathan?

Rose took a deep breath and avoided looking beside her. It was as if by not looking, the "wifey" she heard would become an illusion. But someone wasn't letting her escape.

"Wifey, why are you ignoring me?" Jonathan moved closer. His tone was filled with grievance.

Rose said nothing in response.

"Wifey, I was so heartbroken when you left me the other day. Wifey, you didn't even bother to look at me..."

Rose felt her scalp tingle. Jonathan's voice was getting louder with each sentence. If she didn't stop him, it might draw the attention of those around them. "Wifey..."

"Stop calling me that!" Rose cautiously looked around for fear that someone might have heard the commotion and looked over.

Fortunately, the host seemed to be

introducing some prominent figure onstage and had grabbed

everyone's attention. Rose relaxed a bit, but she suddenly noticed the person sitting on her other side.

"Mi... Miles?" Rose almost exclaimed in surprise. She asked out loud. "Why are you here?"

And he was sitting beside her too! She hadn't even noticed him all this time!

Miles smiled warmly. Before he could say anything, a voice announced the answer to Rose.

"Another sponsor of today's event is here as well. We thank Miles Young of the Young Group for supporting this performance."

As the host's words fell, a spotlight shone on Miles' seat. So, the Young Group sponsored the performance. Miles was here for business. Since it was business, it had nothing to do with her! Rose seemed to breathe a sigh of relief.

The host continued, "Now, please welcome Mr. Miles onstage with a round of applause."

Miles going on stage naturally had nothing to do with Rose, but when he stood up under the spotlight, he extended his hand toward her.

Nearly everyone's attention was on

Miles. The Young family was facing

a crucial period of inheritance.

passing, and Miles gathered all the attention.

Everyone looked at his hand and noticed the person sitting beside him. The spotlight also generously included her in its glow.NôvelDrama.Org content rights.

"The lady next to Mr. Miles..." The host was full of curiosity.

Rose slowly raised her hand and looked at Miles as if to ask, "What does this mean?"

Miles continued smiling at Rose. "Together."

Together? Together onstage?

"Ha... Haha... Can..." Could she not?

"Can? Can what?" Jonathan shrieked inwardly in alarm. He instinctively grabbed Rose's hand.
