Chapter 15 Patted Her Waist

The man’s voice confirmed Rose’s suspicion.

It was him! He was right here!

Shocked, Rose felt as if she had been electrocuted. Almost on instinct, she wanted to push him away.

But Jonathan seemed to have seen through her thoughts. Placing his large palm on the back of her waist, he pulled her closer. “Don’t move. Do you want everyone to know that you tried to seduce me in the room just now?”

“–”

She was not trying to seduce him! Rose wanted to retort, but a threatening glare from him silenced her.

She grimaced beneath her mask, but she obediently continued dancing. He took the lead, and they danced quite well together.

But Jonathan did not seem satisfied just yet. Her body was too tense.

“Relax!” Jonathan discreetly patted her waist.

Rose was startled.

His actions felt like he was teasing her flirtatiously. He was harassing her!

Rose glared at him to communicate her resistance.

Jonathan raised an eyebrow and smirked. They were legally married. Patting her waist was no big deal. At most, it was considered a bit of flirting between a married couple.

The other guests did not notice those movements. The two people in the middle of the dance floor looked especially good together.

One of them was tall and stately, whereas the other had a graceful figure. The man’s black suit also matched the woman’s red attire very well.

But Nixon could keenly sense that something was off between the two. His expression was foul.

floor to the hall. When she save the two people on the dance floor, her eyes burned bright with jealousy.

Just now, after receiving the message from Hank, Kelly wanted to figure out

why Rose had not gone to the room.

But as soon as she knocked on the door. Hank pulled her in.

She ended up taking Rose’s place as Hank satisfied his desires again and

again

Kelly was furious. It should have been Rose, but she was the one who got stuck in that room instead.

And Rose was dancing with Jonathan!

Suddenly, she overheard two guests whispering to each other.

“Did Mr. Finch fall for Ms. Rose? But she’s Mr. Lane’s fiancée!”

“How can Nixon compare to Mr. Finch? With a snap of his fingers, Mr. Finch could affect the whole of Veridian, and maybe even the entire world!

“I heard from an insider that Nixon is currently facing funding issues for a few of his projects. If he doesn’t patch those holes soon, he’ll be done for…”

The alarm bells went on inside Kelly’s head. She had no clue Nixon was in that much trouble!

If Nixon was already done for, it was pointless for her to be with him anymore. Kelly was even more furious now.

She had planned on using Hank to destroy Rose, but her plan had failed.

Suddenly, she remembered the camera she planted in the room. She realized that everything that happened between her and Hank had been recorded.

She reached into her bag to take out her phone so that she could delete the video.

But she could not replace her phone anywhere.

Kelly panicked. She hurried back to the room on the second floor. Even after searching every corner, she failed to replace her phone.

She was terrified. If the video got out, she would be ruined!

While she was thinking about this, she heard Nixon’s urgent voice coming

from the staircase. “Caleb, replace out if Rose spoke to Uncle Jonathan when she went missing.”

Nixon’s expression was dark.

He refused to believe that Jonathan would dance with Rose for no reason. He detected possessiveness in the way Jonathan treated Rose.

A few minutes later, the butler, Caleb Matthews, came back with new information.

“A servant spotted Ms. Rose going to the second floor just now. Mr. Finch was in the innermost room on the second floor, so maybe …”

Caleb did not finish his sentence, but that was enough for Nixon to confirm his speculation.

Kelly, who was eavesdropping, was dumbstruck.

She glanced at the two rooms on opposite ends of the corridor and gritted her teeth in fury.

Rose went to the wrong room, so she ended up in Jonathan’s room!

How did she get so lucky?

Kelly was burning with hatred as she went over the situation.

Did Rose think that Jonathan was interested in her?

Well, Kelly was not going to let Rose have her way!

Kelly’s eyes flashed viciously. From her bag, she took out the photos Maya had taken that night.
