Chapter 64 Was It a Coincidence
âSo, why do you want to find him?â Jonathan asked, his voice laced with frustration.
A chill emanated from him, sending shivers down Roseâs spine.
She didnât have time to ask him what was bothering him as she explained, âOf course, to retrieve the couple rings. I heard that the rings were auctioned, and I want to keep them for myself. I need to stop them from signing the contract.â
Jonathan scoffed and said, âItâs just a pair of rings. Whatâs the big deal?â
âHow could it not be a big deallâ
Roseâs immediate instinct was to keep those rings. It wasnât because of her design, but rather the strange feeling she had developed when she saw the finished product.
The host mentioned that someone had turned her design into a finished product. While she hadnât confirmed it, she was certain that the person was her star escort husband. She glanced at Jonathan.
Their marriage had been nothing but a transaction, but she still wanted to keep something. With the one- month deadline approaching, she was starting to feel irritated.
âAt least itâs my design, and itâs been through a car accident with me. It has extraordinary meaning as a wedding ring.â
âA wedding ring?â
Her suggestion seemed quite reasonable. Jonathanâs mood began to ease, and his lips were about to curve into a smile. Just then, Rose poured cold water on him.
âMost importantly, I canât let that scoundrel Mr. Finch get his hands on it. I canât let him flaunt it in front of some girl.â Rose felt displeased as he thought of âMr. Finch.â
Jonathanâs halfâsmiling lips froze in place. After awhile, he stared at her with an extremely displeased expression.
âThen you might be disappointed,â he said coldly.
âWhat do you mean?â she asked.
âThe rings are already in Mr. Finchâs hands.â
Rose couldnât believe it.
âHow do you know?â
Jonathan raised an eyebrow and cruelly extinguished her hopes.
âI was present when they signed the contract. I watched them hand over the rings to Mr. Finch.
âFurthermore, Mr. Finch plans to flaunt the rings in front of some girl.â
Did Mr. Finch have his eye on someone?
Rose couldnât help but mutter, âThat girl has bad luck.â
Jonathan glanced at her and smiled cryptically.

âBad luck? Yes, she had to accept it,â he thought.
He brought her back to Aquastead General Hospital. After a comprehensive examination, they confirmed that Rose was fine. Only then did he feel at ease.
While Rose
to the hos
sleeping, Finley, who had been tasked with investigating the man who had brought Rose returned..
âMr. Finch, Iâve been following the surveillance footage and investigating for a long time, but I still havenât found his whereabouts. However, I found thisâ¦â
He showed a picture on his phone where the man had a circular emblem on his wrist.
âWorrain Clan of the Youngs? Jonathan recognized it immediately.
Within the Three Greatest Families of Regalia, there was the Azure Clan of the Finches and the Worrain Clan of the Youngs, each possessing its hidden strength.
The Young family⦠Jonathan stared at Rose in her hospital bed, hidden behind the glass window on the door. Was it a coincidence?
He frowned as he ordered Finley, âContinue to investigate this matter in secret. Find out who that person
IS
âAlright,â Finley agreed.
While Rose fell asleep, the internet was buzzing with chatter. Under the official results and live video from the competition, netizens were involved in a heated discussion.
âThe young lady is so beautiful, and sheâs not wearing makeup! Sheâs even more beautiful than Kelly, who
stole her work.â
âKelly is so disgusting; she even wants to steal her own sisterâs things!â
âLast time, she stole her sisterâs dress and wore it secretly. Hehe, let me tell you, sheâs a drag on the family; her mother is just a second wife.â
âThis little thief deserves to be banned! Ms. Rose deserves it; sheâs Ms. Flora, and her dress design is priceless.â
Scenic Gardens, the Shaffer residence.
Jamieâs face darkened as he asked, âHow could this happen? Have you contacted Kelly?â
They had also gone to the competition site today. They realized that something was wrong when Rose appeared. Right now, their priority was to find Kelly.
Chelsea once again dialed Kellyâs number. This time, it finally connected. However, before she could say anything, she heard sounds of heavy breathing on the other end.
