Honey, You're a Billionaire?

Jonathan's voice suddenly sounded next to Rose. "Do you want to listen anymore?"

Rose was caught off guard. She instinctively tried to defend herself as if she had just been caught red-handed, but Jonathan didn't give her the chance to do so. "What's there to listen about other people? If you want to listen more, we can-"

"Jonathan!" Rose urgently interrupted him before he could finish his suggestive words. When she met his teasing gaze, she quickly looked away as if his eyes burned her.

"I don't want to listen. You were the one who played it. How could you play something like that?" Rose was eager to prove that she wasn't the kind of person who enjoyed such things. But the more she tried to clear her name, the more flustered she became, and the less convincing she sounded.

Beside her, Jonathan shot her a doting look before suddenly becoming serious. "I had no intimate relationship with Yara, and the child in her womb isn't mind, so I didn't cheat on you."

The air in the car tensed. Rose had to admit that the heaviness she had felt earlier dissipated and was replaced by a sense of relief that was slowly spreading. But why? She would leave sooner or later. Rose lowered her gaze when she recalled what Eleanor had said.

"Wifey, am I not well-behaved? I wouldn't have done anything to Yara even if I hadn't passed out that night. My heart only belongs to you, and I'd only="

"Jonathan..." Rose suddenly interrupted him and met Jonathan's gaze.

Jonathan responded with a hum and an expectant face as if he were waiting for Rose's praise.

Looking at his face, the words Rose wanted to say got stuck in her throat. In the end, she couldn't bring herself to say them and instead forced a smile.

She changed the subject. "What do you plan to do about Ms. Maize?"NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.

Now that everyone in the Finch family knew Yara was pregnant with Jonathan's child, the wedding between the two families would likely be held soon. But how could Jonathan marry a woman carrying another man's child?

Jonathan let out a cold laugh at the mention of Yara. He hadn't wanted to bother with Yara at all, and he couldn't even bother to glance at her.

But since Yara and Bella were so eager to bring about a marriage between the Finch and Maize families, he would have to respect their wishes.

"The Maize family is a prominent name in Regalia, and Yara is a famous actress in the entertainment industry. The child in her womb needs a complete family."

Jonathan raised his eyebrows. As he said this, Rose could see the faint, sinister smile on his lips.

"What are you going to do?" Rose instinctively asked.

Jonathan gave her a meaningful look. "When the time comes, I'll invite you to the wedding!"

Rose was confused by his words, but Jonathan didn't explain further. His smile was cryptic, and Rose found herself growing increasingly curious. She even felt a bit of pity for Yara. She was certain that Yara wouldn't be able to handle Jonathan's scheming. During the drive, Jonathan slowed down on purpose, but they eventually reached their destination.

Since Yvonne had been hospitalized, Rose had been staying at the hospital under the Finch Group. Though Jonathan was reluctant to part with her, he still brought her there.

The car pulled to a stop, but Jonathan wanted to spend some more time with Rose. "Wifey, I want to..."

Rose, who seemed to have noticed something, panickedly opened the door.

"Wifey..." Jonathan immediately followed her.

Rose ran toward the hospital and finally caught up with the person she was chasing at the entrance. "Evan, what happened to Dawn?"

Earlier, she had seen Evan hurriedly getting out of a car and carrying a figure to the hospital.

Looking at Dawn in Evan's arms, Rose noticed she had her eyes closed appearing to have fainted. The white dress she was wearing was stained with blood too. Rose's heart skipped a beat.

"Dawn..." Evan's face was grim.

Realizing what might have

happened, Rose quickly arranged for medical assistance. The nurse

recognized Rose as someone et

importance and swiftly organized everything. Dawn was soon taken into surgery.

Outside the operating room, Evan sat on a chair with a blank gaze.

Rose stood beside him, feeling a deep sense of guilt. She was supposed to pick Dawn up earlier. If she hadn't been delayed by the car accident, would things have turned out differently? After what felt like an eternity, the light above the operating room went off. When the doctor came out, his expression was heavy.

"Mr. Spencer, Ms. Stevens is out of danger, but we couldn't save the baby."

Evan staggered backward. He remained silent even after Dawn was transferred to her ward.

Later that night, Dawn woke up and immediately looked for Evan, but to her surprise, it was Rose she first saw by her bedside.

"Dawn..." Rose began but then noticed the intense hatred that flashed in Dawn's eyes. The hatred disappeared as quickly as it had appeared as if it had just been Rose's imagination. When Rose looked at Dawn again, her face was pale, and her eyes were filled with exhaustion and pain. "Rose, my baby's gone, isn't it?"

Dawn's hand moved to her

In

abdomen. She had known she was going to lose her baby the moment she felt pain before losing consciousness. The place had been deserted, and she wasn't sure if Evan would arrive in time.

Unable to bear the sight, Rose tried to comfort her. "Dawn, you can still have a baby with Evan..."

Dawn sneered at her words. Rose didn't know that she had only had that one night with Evan because she had taken advantage of an opportunity.

The baby was the reason a wedding was planned. Without the baby, she knew that the wedding, which Evan wasn't eager for in the first place, was off the table.

Biting her lip, Dawn was filled with regret. If she hadn't agreed to help set up Rose in the first place, would she still be carrying Evan's child?

There was hope for a wedding with the baby around though it might be delayed, but now... Dawn couldn't help but cry.

"Dawn..." Rose didn't know how to console her, and the guilt she felt grew stronger at the thought that maybe things wouldn't have turned out this way if she had picked her up earlier. "I'm sorry. I was supposed to pick you up, but there was a car accident on the way."

A car accident? Dawn's sobs suddenly stopped. She knew that the car accident must have been set up, but Rose's guilt provided an outlet for her resentment. It was Rose's fault!

"Yes. If you had arrived earlier, and if you had picked me up sooner, I wouldn't have..." Dawn muttered, staring at Rose. "Rose, it's your fault that I lost my baby."

Rose found herself unable to argue when faced with this accusation. All she could do was repeatedly apologize. "I'm sorry, Dawn. I'm so so sorry..."

As Rose continued to apologize, Dawn seemed to forget that she had originally planned to set Rose up. She had known all along that Rose wouldn't be able to pick her up. Nevertheless, she genuinely believed that Rose was the reason she lost her baby.
