Who Is That Man
"Hmph, my granddaughter is not someone you can just bully at will
He glanced disapprovingly at Thomas, but in the next moment, when he looked at Rose, his gaze became exceptionally doting
He patted Rose's hand and said. "Rosie, they are all here to apologize today. But even if you don't forgive them, it's okay. Your happiness is all that matters." Upon hearing Oliver's words, Thomas and Bonnie's faces filled with panic.
They once believed Rose couldn't be linked to Oliver, but today Madeline informed them that Oliver had recognized Rose as his granddaughter.
Moreover, the Young family issued a statement canceling the planned investment in Aquastead, which made Thomas realize the gravity of the situation.
Without delay, he brought those who had troubled Rose the day before, including their parents, to apologize to her.
Before Rose's return, Oliver had made his stance clear: everything was negotiable, but it all depended on Rose's mood.
"Ms. Rose, we were wrong about what happened yesterday. To make it up to you, we have prepared some gifts..."
Bonnie's face was plastered with a smile as she signaled to her assistant.
The assistant quickly directed several people to bring in a series of items-limited edition handbags, jewelry, everything one could think of, and in such abundance that even Madeline and the other ladies were dazzled
However, Rose merely glanced at the items before looking away.
Bonnie hastily added, "Ms. Rose, please take another look
Thomas, do you think the Young family couldn't afford to buy them if my granddaughter wanted them?"
Oliver didn't mince words. Bonnie's face stiffened, and a flicker of panic crossed Thomas's eyes.
If he doesn't handle today's matter well, it could not only jeopardize his future but also potentially implicate Warren in Regalia and even the entire Chambers family. Thomas now regretted not being fair in his actions the previous night.
He gla
those who had troubled Rose and commanded sternly, "Why aren't you all kneeling, begging. Rose for mercy?"
Several people, both men and women, looked at Rose and reluctantly knelt.
"We're sorry, Ms. Rose... they apologized in unison.
Rose cast a disdainful glance at the group. She had no interest in settling scores or flaunting her strength, but after last night's incident, she felt she deserved some justice.
"Who was it last night that said I was the one who provoked you and ruined Ms. Cha Ders's birthday party?"
Rose's voice was calm but camed an invisible pressure that made them tremble inside
Immediately, they all looked toward a girl named Jane Carter. Her father was a minor director under Thomas's command, and she had grown up attending school with Madeline, claiming to be her best
sister
In reality, she had used Madeline's name to dominate the social circle during the years Madeline was abroad. Rose followed their gaze to Jane.
"The one who pushed me into the water was you, right?"
Rose remembered her face. A flicker of guilt flashed in Jane's eyes. She wanted to deny it, but the situation made it impossible
She could only tremble as she admitted, "It was... me
"And the truth? Please repeat it."
Jane glanced at Madeline. She dared not expose Madeline's crush on Miles, nor did she dare to say that they had troubled Rose on behalf of Madeline. She had to take the blame herself.
"I was jealous of her getting close to Howard, so I had the other girls trouble her. I'm sorry, Ms. Rose. I was wrong. Please forgive me..."
"Howard?"
Surprise flashed across Thomas and Bonnie's faces, as well as Miles's and Oliver's. The way they all stared at her made Rose feel extremely uncomfortable.
She didn't want to dwell on this matter any longer. Since she had already received an apology and her innocence had been cleared, Rose looked at Oliver and said, "Grandpa, let's forget about this matter." However, Oliver's expression remained solemn.
The entire room was tense, and finally, Oliver spoke coldly, "Rosie, I won't pursue this matter any further, but I'm not easily fooled. Miles, let's put the investment on hold for now and revisit it in a while. While Oliver didn't outright reject the investment, Thomas was already quite satisfied with this outcome. After apologizing repeatedly to Rose, Thomas led everyone out of the room.
In the car, both Thomas and Bonnie remained silent. After a while, they both spoke at the same time:
Howard
"Howard..."
They exchanged glances, both thinking along the sathe lines
"I didn't expect Howard to get close to Rose. If Howard and Rose can be together..
Both of them had the same thought
If Howard and Rose became a couple, combined with Madeline and Miles's relationship, the Chambers family and Young family would be deeply connected
This would be highly beneficial for the Chambers family's development in Regalia. Both of them were Tilled with excitement with this thought
Meanwhile, Rose was about to go upstairs to her room but was stopped by Oliver
"Rosie *
"Yes, Grandpa? Do you have something else to discuss
Oliver fixed his gaze on Rose's eyes and asked, "Who is Howard?"
"He is the younger brother of the Chambers family's twins. Why do you ask?"
"You and him. "Oliver furrowed his brows, and his curious expression made Rose realize that he had misunderstood.
Rose humedly explained, "Grandpa, you're misunderstanding. I just met Howard for the first time yesterday"
"Just met?" Oliver smiled. "Meeting him for the first time is not a problem. Miles, check what kind of person Howard is..."
Miles's brow had remained furrowed. Just as he was about to say something, Rose, with a wry smile on her face, grabbed Oliver's arm.
"Grandpa, you've got it all wrong I don't have any feelings for him."
"No feelings? You should consider finding a partner...
Oliver said seriously as if he were considering which outstanding young man would be a suitable. match for Rose Rose had no choice but to be honest. "Grandpa, I'm already married"
Rose had wanted to show her wedding ring, but she suddenly remembered that it was too large and often fit inconvenient, so she had stopped wearing it

was visibly surprised.
He hadn't conducted much investigation into her background. He had instantly recognized Rose, and any investigation would have been disrespectful to her.
But she had gotten married? It was such a significant matter, he had to know!
Who is That Man
Oliver immediately gave an order, "Who is that man? No, you must call him now and have him come to
see me!
Rose smiled wryly, thinking of her 'star escort husband', who had been out of touch for a day. She was about to speak when a voice came from outside the door.
"Grandpa, it's quite late. Even if you want to meet, you should let Rose prepare properly and meet another day!"
As the words fell, Anastasia had already entered the room. Rosie looked over, and their eyes met.
