Kelly wanted to grab Rose’s hand, but she recoiled in disgust. A fleeting trace of hurt appeared on Kelly’s face, but she quickly feigned indifference.

She turned to Maya, who had accidentally bumped into Rose a moment ago, and said, “Maya, please apologize to Rose.”

Maya stared at Rose with disdain as she said, “Rose? Oh, it’s Ms. Flora, isn’t it? I’m sorry; I just happened to be walking by and didn’t see you getting out of the car. You’re not mad at me, are you?”

In reality, she had made a bet with Mandy and the others nearby. If she could knock Rose to the ground and embarrass her, they would all play matchmaker for her with the handsome guy she had her eye on.

Jackson had eventually dumped her; she considered it Rose’s fault. Her eyes revealed a simmering hatred as she approached Rose, intending to teach her a lesson.

Rose had recently recovered from a car accident, and Maya didn’t believe she could do anything to her. However, Rose saw through her intentions at a glance,

As Maya got close, she suddenly raised her hand and grabbed her hair.

“Ah!” Maya cried out in pain.

Rose didn’t let go. Recalling the day of the competition when Maya had provided false testimony to frame Kelly, she yanked her hair forcefully, tearing a clump of it from her scalp.

“Ah-” Maya wailed in agony, sounding like a slaughtered pig.

Everyone around couldn’t help but gulp nervously. Wearing a disdainful expression, Rose let go of the strands of hair in her hand.

Maya glared at her fiercely, but before she could make an accusation, Rose smiled sweetly.

“This should be considered an apology. I accept it. Don’t worry, I’m not angry with you.”

While she smiled, her eyes bore a particularly threatening look, as though she could strike at any moment. Maya was thoroughly intimidated.

On the side, Kelly’s eyes revealed a hint of displeasure, but she quickly put on a smile and tried to

mediate.

“It’s great that Rose isn’t angry. Dad said Rose would attend my engagement ceremony today. I’m really happy.”

Her innocent and cheerful smile made it seem as if the confrontation at the competition just a few days ago had never happened. Even Rose was impressed with her acting skills.

She glanced at Nixon behind Kelly and said, “It’s him.”

Upon sensing her gaze, Kelly happily ran to Nixon’s side. She linked her arm with his and leaned on his shoulder,

Rose, Nixon, and I are trul

love.”

Rose raised an eyebrow. A sincere love, indeed. This cheating couple was a perfect match. Noticing her subdued reaction, Kelly felt a bit unsatisfied.

Recalling her various encounters with “Mr. Finch” from her memories, she gradually formed an image of him in her mind.

He had a decent height and a good physique, but his face probably wasn’t anything special. What if his child turned out to be a monkey… She exited her Twitter in disdain. Just then, a call came in.

Her heart trembled as she found that the caller was Jamie. After answering the call, Jamie’s cold and commanding voice came from the other end.

“Your sister is getting engaged today. As her sister, you should make an appearance.”

Kelly was getting engaged? To whom? She didn’t have a chance to ask, as Jamie coldly provided an address.

“If you dare not to come, then never consider inheriting Celeste Jewels again.”

After saying that, he hung up the phone. Recalling the information Evan had discovered a few days ago, a cold smile appeared on Rose’s face.

He had revealed that among the online trolls responsible for sabotaging her, one of them was instruct by Jamie. He even stole her work and gave it to Kelly.

How much did her father hate her to go to such lengths to destroy her? Her heart still ached.

She knew that even if she won the National Jewelry Design Award as agreed, Jamie was highly likely to back out of the deal.

Nevertheless, she had no choice but to attend Kelly’s engagement. The address given was Aquastead Hotel, Half an hour later, Rose arrived at the destination.

As soon as she got out of the car, she was bumped into by someone. Frowning, she looked up to see Nixon and Kelly standing just 16 feet away from her.

Kelly approached with a concerned expression as she asked, “Rose, are you okay?”

She had asked her father to invite Rose to her engagement ceremony today to provoke her. After all, Nixon had been her ex–fiancé. She expected her to be emotional and possibly cause a scene.

Nevertheless, Rose smiled faintly and looked at the couple before her as she said, “I wish you both at lifetime of happiness.”

A cheating couple should be bound for life. With those words, she turned and walked into the hotel, leaving behind Kelly, who was discontented as she clenched her fists.

The engagement banquet for Nixon and Kelly had taken over the first floor of the most luxurious banquet hall in the hotel. Since the guests had not yet arrived, Rose decided not to go in.

She headed to the drink bar adjacent to the banquet hall, planning to make an appearance later.

After replaceing a seat at the drink bar, Ezra, who had been discreetly taking a break from his assistant and others, spotted her instantly.

“Rose…”

His e

eyes suddenly lit up with interest. Over the past few days, Jonathan had placed countless bodyguards In the hospital to keep him under tight surveillance.

It seemed he cared more about Rose than he had initially thought. He raised an eyebrow and was about to approach when another man took a seat opposite her before him. He instantly squinted.
