Honey, You're a Billionaire?

Chapter 233 Troubles

Rose couldn't possibly call Miles and put him in a tough spot.

"No," Rose said instinctively.

William looked troubled.NôvelDrama.Org is the owner.

"But, Ms. Shaffer, someone is targeting you. Did you offend someone at the Young's House of Jewels?"

William was sharp. If those employees weren't sent by Miles, then it had to be someone from the Young family. It had to be someone significant enough to challenge Miles and create such chaos. Rose hadn't been back to Celeste Jewels since she went to the Young's House of Jewels. William was certain something had happened.

Seeing Rose's calm expression, William hesitated and consoled, "Ms. Shaffer, I'll stand by you no matter what happens. Sherlyn and the others haven't arrived yet. They don't know about this." Rose smiled as she understood his unspoken concern. She didn't want them to worry.

"It's okay. If people resign, we'll keep hiring. You're doing great." William remained silent.

As work hours approached, the office felt strange with half-empty desks.

Sherlyn and William received termination notices from several business partners who had previously approached them because of the Young family.

William and Sherlyn were concerned. They found Rose again.

"Ms. Shaffer, should we ask Mr. Miles?"

Rose interrupted, "Miles won't be of help. These are partnership issues. If they want to terminate, let them

These partners came because of the Young family.

Even without someone pushing this, those business partners would likely terminate contracts when Mr. Young Senior declared her separation from the Young family. After all, the Young family held significant influence in both the jewelry industry and other sectors. Who would have risked offending the Young family for Celeste Jewels?

"But..."

William still looked troubled. This time, Sherlyn stopped him. She knew Rose must have had her reasons. for not involving Miles.

After Sherlyn and William left the office, Rose's smile faded. It was too soon for this targeting, and she was certain it was Kelly's doing or at least someone trying to please Kelly.

If it wasn't Kelly directly, the only possibility was Anastasia. Suddenly, her phone rang, and she was surprised to see Anastasia's name on the caller ID.

Anastasia? Did she dial the wrong number, or did Rose misread it? Despite their time in the Young family, Rose and Anastasia weren't particularly close. Rose ignored the call and continued with her work.

After a while, the ringing stopped and didn't resume. Rose dismissed it as a minor incident and paid no further attention.

However, she saw Anastasia waiting for her at the office building entrance. Anastasia stood by her luxury car, seemingly having waited for a while. Seeing Rose. Anastasia waved and approached her. Rose chose to ignore her, but Anastasia walked up to her anyway. Anastasia went straight to her and even took Rose's hand like they were the closest of friends.

Anastasia pouted, "Rosie, why didn't you answer my call today? Do you know how worried I was about you?" Worried?

Rose chuckled. Was Anastasia concerned about her troubles being too few?

"Thank you for asking." Rose said calmly.

Anastasia thought Rose would be in a flurry today, or at least guessed that she was behind the troubles. But Rose's reaction was far too composed. "Rosie, I heard you didn't go to the office today. Was it because of Kelly?"

Anastasia observed Rose for a while. Since Rose seemed so calm, she decided to bring up Kelly to provoke Rose's anger. But Rose smiled.

"Why would you think that?"

Anastasia continued, "Grandpa suddenly has an extra granddaughter, and even I haven't fully grasped it yet. Kelly seemed to have miraculously recovered after you left the hospital last night, so she went back to Young Estate."

She continued, "Grandpa truly cherishes her. Blood ties matter. Oh, right, Grandpa said Kelly's return is a big deal for the Young family. Miles has put aside everything to focus on Kelly's welcome-home banquet.

Anastasia was deliberately dropping hints to p

values Kelly more than her,

She wanted to convey to Rose that Mr. Young Senior

She also wanted to tell Rose that Miles was busy lately, so it would be best not to disturb him unless it was necessary. Rose listened but remained silent. She knew everything. "Rosie, to be honest, the push you gave yesterday didn't seem that severe. But who would have thought that Kelly suffered such a serious injury?" Anastasia sighed.

She watched Rose closely. Despite all her revelations, Rose did not react at all. Anastasia couldn't believe that Rose wasn't bothered.

So she continued to provoke Rose, "Rosie, why weren't you saying anything? Did something happen today?

Rose frowned. Would Anastasia not know what happened?

Anastasia's attempts to rile her up stirred a slight ripple in Rose's otherwise composed demeanor. She wanted to roll her eyes at Anastasia, but she couldn't afford to offend her.

Just then, a familiar car stopped by the roadside. Rose quessed it was Jonathan. She glanced at Anastasia, and her smile suddenly widened.

"Ms. Anastasia..." Rose suddenly spoke.

Anastasia pretended to be surprised.

"Rosie, why are you being so formal? Don't you usually call me..."

Before Anastasia could finish, Rose Interrupted her, "Were you thirsty?

Anastasia was slightly puzzled. What did she mean?

In her confused gaze, Rose held the hand that rested on her arm. With a twist of her wrist, she released Anastasia's hand. Then, Rose raised her hand and pointed in a certain direction.
