Who Are You Here For
If it were anyone else, Anastasia would have been angry. However, even if she was embarrassed, she had to greet him with a smile.
"Yes, I'm the heiress to the Young family. My grandfather..."
She didn't take back her hand but continued to introduce herself.
It was as if she thought as long as Clover knew she was the heiress to the Young family, he would have to show respect even if he was the CEO of Lerain Group.
However, before she finished speaking, Clover said, "You're brought back from an orphanage. How come you're the heiress of the Young family?"
The female assistant on the side was also speechless. Clover was always so venomous when he got into the mood. If it weren't for Lerain Group's backing, he would have been beaten to death long ago.
Upon seeing that Anastasia seemed to lose control due to embarrassment, the female assistant said, "Ms. Young, I'm sorry. Mr. Xanth is in a bad mood today. Please don't mind
Clover gave her a cold look. Who said he was not in a good mood today? He was in a very good mood. However, his eyes flashed upon seeing the smile on the female assistant's face.
He didn't say anything as he bypassed Anastasia, totally ignoring her. Anastasia was left. clenching her fists.
The female assistant sensed her displeasure and apologized again before catching up with Clover.
"Mr. Xanth, the Young family is the master of the house today. What you did just now is not good," the female assistant reminded kindly with a smile on her face.
"I'm not here for the Young family," Clover said nonchalantly.Content held by NôvelDrama.Org.
He didn't care about the Finch family, let alone the Young family.
"Then who are you here for?" the female assistant asked.
Clover didn't answer. The female assistant suddenly thought of Jonathan. Could it be him? Clover seemed to have mentioned that Jonathan was an interesting person. She looked at Clover in disbelief. The evil suspicion in her mind could not be shaken off. Meanwhile, Anastasia was once again ignored by Clover, but she didn't give up.
For the sake of the red diamond, she kept an eye on Clover from a distance, ready to approach again at any time. At this time, Rose was upstairs. Miles had gone downstairs to greet the guests.
Standing by the window, Rose was surprised to see a figure downstairs. Then, she carefully avoided everyone's sight and went downstairs behind the man.
"Maya hasn't harassed you anymore, has she?"
The person who came was Howard. Oliver said that today's reception only invited people
from the industry. She didn't expect that the Chambers family would also come.
As Howard turned and saw Rose, a hint of surprise flashed across his eyes.
"Maya? Oh, that day..."
He wanted to say that he saw her kick Maya into the pool that day, but he suddenly realized that he had seen that scene secretly. To avoid revealing his secret, he changed his story. "I haven't seen her since that day in the hospital.
Rose was surprised. Maya fell in love with Howard, or maybe she fell in love with his status. How could she give up so easily? This was not the usual her.
It seemed that she hadn't seen her for a while. For the two of them, Maya was not important. Hence, they soon forgot about her. Rose discovered that Howard had his ears pierced. He wore the earrings she gave him last time. He was already very handsome, but now he looked even mor
unruly. Rose was about to praise her when she heard Miles's voice.
"Rosie, the reception is about to begin."
Miles was wearing a white suit today, which made him look even more elegant. Upon seeing Howard, he nodded politely. When he turned to look at Rose, his eyes became gentler. "Grandpa has already gone downstairs. Let's go there too."
Then, he gestured to her to take his arm. On today's occasion, she was the granddaughter of the Young family, while Miles was his brother.
Hence, she didn't shy away. When she took Miles's arm and turned around, she told Howard, Let's go."
Howard glanced at Miles and replied with a smile, "I'll stay for a while."
Looking at the backs of Miles and Rose, he shrugged. At the Chambers Residence that day, those people embarrassed Rose. He vaguely knew the reason even though they didn't mention it. They thought Rose and Miles had a close relationship and were worried that she would block the way of Madeline and Miles. From his perspective, that was not the case.
Rose was above board with Miles, but Miles... His gentle eyes could tell that he was not
Innocent.
"It seems that it's just a daydream that my
murmured, habitually raising his handsister wants to get together with Miles," he
touch the earrings on his ears.
Suddenly, he seemed to remember something. Earlier, he noticed that Rose was still wearing the same red diamond on his hand. Rose's husband... Would her husband come to such an
occasion?
He originally wanted to hide in peace, but a sudden curiosity surged in his heart. Without wasting a moment, he strode toward the grand place.
At the reception, Miles was pushing Oliver in the wheelchair, while Rose was standing beside Oliver. Countless people around came forward to toast.
"Mr. Young Senior is so lucky to have such a beautiful granddaughter and such talent
"I still remember the two champion works in the National Jewelry Design Award. Young's House of Jewels has such a powerful design director... Mr. Young Senior has a good vision." Almost everyone who came up to offer a toast was filled with compliments. They praised Oliver and also the newly appointed design director of Young's House of Jewels.
They knew in their hearts that Oliver asking her to take over this position meant more than just the position itself.
The Young family had a great business, and they heard that Oliver was not in good health. If he passed away, there would definitely be a battle for power.
No one could tell what role this new design director would play and what position she would appear in. Even if they could get a part of the property of the Young family, it's enough for them to fawn over Oliver. Surrounded by the crowd, Rose smiled brightly and gracefully. Her eyes were looking at the door as if waiting for someone to arrive. However, after a long time, she didn't see that figure.
A trace of disappointment gradually appeared in her smile. She didn't even notice that her hand was caressing the red diamond on her finger. Nevertheless, her actions fell into Clover's
eyes.
As sharp as he was, he captured something in an instant.
"I heard that the Finch family got a red diamond not long ago."
He mentioned it seemingly accidentally.
The female assistant replied, "Yes. The red diamond is extremely rare. It's bigger than yours."
She also noticed the ring on Rose's hand. Could that ring be the one belonging to the Finch family? This guess made her take another look at Rose.
Suddenly, Clover seemed to remember something as he said, "You said before that someone
wanted to buy my red diamond at a high price. Who is it?"
