Neither of them spoke in the room. Kelly's lips curved slightly. Her features weren't as refined as Rose's or as elegant as Anastasia's, yet her confidence added a certain radiance to her face.Anastasia stared at Kelly. However, Kelly smiled faintly. Finally, Anastasia frowned and said, "I heard Aunt Rietta was a very beautiful woman, but why do I feel like you don't ..."Anastasia paused as she tried to choose her words carefully. But her expressions conveyed more than words ever could and revealed her disdain for Kelly's appearance.Kelly didn't anticipate such a direct attack on her looks. Anastasia's words immediately struck a nerve as she was already feeling inferior to Rose's beauty. Kelly's smile vanished instantly. She glared at Anastasia, "What do you mean? Do you doubt that I'm a fake? If you have doubts, let's go ask Grandpa to clarify this."Kelly grabbed Anastasia's wrist, attempting to pull her out of the room. Anastasia coldly smiled and forcefully pulled her ba

"There," Rose said slowly. Anastasia followed her gaze and saw a supermarket. Anastasia was still puzzled when Rose's voice sounded again."Go buy some water if you're thirsty. I won't accompany you."With that, Rose smiled at Anastasia and walked away. She reached Jonathan's car parked by the roadside. Jonathan had rolled down the window. Rose opened the door and got in swiftly. "Let's go," she said as she fastened her seatbelt. Without delay, Jonathan drove off. Through the rearview mirror, Rose saw Anastasia's displeased face outside the building, arms crossed in anger, glaring at her.Jonathan also noticed Anastasia. He had received news about Mr. Young Senior finding his granddaughter, though it hadn't been announced publicly. He had also learned that some partners had terminated their contracts with Celeste Jewels today. There must be someone from the Young family involved in this.Thinking about Anastasia's furious expression moments ago, Jonathan smirked. "What

People were all curious, probing into the reasons why Rose and Celeste Jewels had become targets. They were very eager to know what exactly had happened, causing them to fall from the sky to the ground in a single night. But no one knew the specific reason. Only a single message circulated within the industry—if anyone collaborated with Celeste Jewels, it meant severing ties with the Youngs and losing the opportunity to work with them.The Young Family wielded such immense influence that no one dared to offend. Therefore, most of Celeste Jewels' collaborators also made their choices.The atmosphere in Celeste Jewels' office was grave at this moment. William and Sherlyn made every effort to quell the gossip in the office. In front of Rose, they both strove to appear calm and composed.Unexpectedly, Rose got a call from Jamie today. Though she had no desire to respond, Jamie's repeated calls forced her to answer.The moment the call connected, Jamie's taunting voice echoed, "Ros

Finley didn't understand Jonathan's intentions—why would he double his salary?Before he could figure it out, Jonathan coughed lightly on the other end of the phone and said, "I didn't mean to yell at you earlier. Rose... she fainted."Finley took some time to regain his composure after Jonathan's surprising explanation. The moment he heard "Rose fainted," his demeanor immediately turned serious."Is Mrs. Finch okay?" His tone was deeply concerned, without any pretense. Jonathan was surprised by his concern for Rose, a hint of danger flickering in his eyes, tinged with a hint of jealousy.But in the next moment, Finley quickly explained, "Mrs. Finch is the person Mr. Finch cares about the most. If anyone harms her, I won't spare them!"Jonathan's menacing expression eased as he stated, "Well, let's start with those who took advantage of the situation with Celeste Jewels due to the Youngs.""Understood, Mr. Finch." Finley accepted the order as if the emotional outburst moments

"Yes, we're ready to sign the contract."Everyone smiled and eagerly handed over the prepared contract to Rose.Rose glanced at the contracts and politely asked with a smile, "What to sign?"A momentary stiffness replaced the smiles on the faces of the crowd.One person hurriedly approached Rose and said, "Ms. Shaffer, might you have forgotten? We're here to sign our collaboration contract. This time, let's not sign for 2 years but extend it to 10. Within these 10 years, our company will be Celeste Jewels' finest partner."Rose remained silent as ever. The person felt a sudden panic, recalling the boss's instructions—if he couldn't seal the deal on this contract today, he would have to leave. It wasn't just him, they all had just exchanged brief pleasantries outside Celeste Jewels' company premises a while ago.Everyone who showed up today got a brutal command from the boss— if the contract wasn't sealed, they were to get lost. As Rose remained silent, someone started to wipe t
