Chapter 105 Do You Want to Come

“Ms. Shaffer, I have some sudden matters to attend to today and can’t make it.”

Miles glanced at the several cars around him, his heart filled with frustration. After saying this, he promptly hung up the phone. Rose was a bit bewildered. What could have happened to him?

On the side, Jonathan had already headed to the entrance, ready to change his shoes and leave. He could tell from Rose’s expression that Miles wouldn’t be coming.

However, he still had to put on a facade.

“Let’s go!” he urged.

Rose lowered her eyes and said, “No need to go; Mr. Young said he has some sudden matters and can’t

make it.”

“Can’t make it? Well… that’s a shame. I was looking forward to meeting him,” Jonathan sighed in disappointment.

He looked at the table full of dishes and asked, “How about we eat first?”

“Sure,” Rose reluctantly agreed.

She was indeed feeling a bit hungry. The dishes on the table were as delicious as those prepared by a top chef.

When she thought about the pitiful–looking eggs and the burnt bacon in the morning, she looked at her star escort husband with a pensive expression.

After dinner, Rose continued to work on company matters. A call came to Jonathan’s phone from Finley.

“Mr. Finch, Mr. Young is still downstairs. But don’t worry, my men are still blocking his car. He can’t even leave right now. He must be fuming.”

Jonathan raised an eyebrow. After ending the call, he excused himself to throw out the garbage and went

downstairs. 1

He was dressed in a casual wool sweater, exuding outstanding looks and physique, which drew the attention of people he passed by on the way. From afar, he could see Miles in his car.

Their eyes met, and Miles’s gaze seemed murderous. As Jonathan approached the car, the passenger’s side door opened up for him.

Upon opening the door, Jonathan immediately noticed the bouquet of roses and an exquisite gift box. Were these for Rose? He picked up the items and got into the car himself.

“Do you live here?

Miles had guessed that Jonathan would come, but he didn’t expect him to be living in the same residential complex as Rose. Jonathan didn’t reply. His silence was an admission.

Miles’s eyes darkened as he asked, “So, have you met Rose’s husband?”

Jonathan remained silent, but the look in his eyes seemed to dismiss Rose’s husband entirely. This further confirmed Miles’s suspicion.

Jonathan had moved into the same residential complex as Rose to get close to her. Inside the car, an eerie silence hung between them. Suddenly, Miles broke into a smile.

“I never thought that the prestigious Mr. Finch would condescend so much for a woman. Jonathan, should I offer my congratulations to you?”

Jonathan’s smile was enigmatic. Hee had done far more than he had ever imagined.

“If you want to offer your congratulations, you can,” he replied.

However, he didn’t need them. It wouldn’t affect him in the slightest. With that, he got out of the car. As he was leaving, he took the roses and gift box with him and thanked Miles with a smile.

“The flowers are lovely, thanks.”

It was as if the flowers were meant for him. As he approached a trash can, he tossed both the flowers and the gift box into it without any hesitation.

Rose immersed herself in work, and her star escort husband was in an unusually good mood tonight, occasionally appearing before her.

For the past few days, he seemed to be quite free, even coming to the company with her early in the morning, acting like her personal bodyguard..

Since they had hired new staff, the company was finally running smoothly.

Rose remembered the marriage agreement she had with her star escort husband, which had already exceeded the agreed–upon one month. She now officially owned Celeste Jewels.

The agreement should be over. However, every time she tried to repay the money she owed, the bank would return the funds, each time with a different excuse.

She decided to visit the bank in person. Before leaving, she searched her office but didn’t replace her star escort husband.

“Ms. Shaffer, are you looking for Sir?*

Sherlyn’s gaze held a hint of mischief. In her view, Rose and Jonathan were deeply in love. He just disappeared for a little while, and Rose had started searching for him.

Lately, her favorite pastime was teasing this couple.

“Ms. Shaffer, Sir went downstairs just now.”

Rose touched her nose, feeling a bit embarrassed as she headed downstairs. When she arrived downstairs, she didn’t see her star escort husband, but she received a call from Kelly.

When she answered the call, she heard her voice which was filled with schadenfreude.

“Rose, I saw your husband with another beautiful woman. Do you want to catch them red–handed?”
