Chapter 637 Are You Really Sad?
Kelly was genuinely panicked and truly scared. Even though she had let go of Rose's hand, she could still feel her warmth, and she turned pale.
"Are you alright?" Rose asked with a smile, her expression suggesting she was concerned for her.
At that moment, Kelly couldn't hear any other sounds. She could only see the smile on Rose's face and felt more certain than ever that it was indeed Rose-a living Rose!
Rose was alive... How could she be alive?
She watched the warehouse explosion with her own eyes. She was the one who set off the explosives. She still remembered the power of the blasts, one after another in a chain reaction, powerful enough to obliterate someone completely.
She even saw firsthand the remains of her body, which had been completely disfigured by the explosion. And there was also that necklace...
She was supposed to be dead, so how was she alive?
In Kelly's mind, countless memories flickered as she searched for clues.
At that moment, someone excitedly stepped forward, saying, "Ms. Rose..."
That person was the butler of the Young family, Patrick.
He looked at Rose, visibly excited as if he was unsure yet afraid of being certain, worrying that his hopes might be dashed. He reached out his hand toward Rose.
Rose met his gaze and reached out to shake hands with Patrick. That temperature...
"Ms. Rose..." At that moment, Patrick was so overwhelmed with emotion that his eyes filled with tears. Ignoring the looks from those around, he tightly grasped Rose's hand.
What he was looking forward to had finally been confirmed. "Ms. Rose, you're alive. Good! That's good!"
Patrick kept murmuring, and his previously dull eyes seemed to brighten once again.
He glanced at Rose with a sense of satisfaction and, as he lowered his gaze, whispered almost inaudibly, "Mr. Young, Ms. Rose is alive and well..."
In the end, he lifted his head, grabbed Rose's hand, and shouted excitedly with a smile, "Ms. Rose is alive! Ms. Rose is alive!"
His roar shattered the last bit of uncertainty lingering in the hearts of everyone present.
That was Rose. That was definitely Rose! Rose was alive!
"Ms. Shaffer, where have you been lately? We all thought..." Someone in the crowd voiced the question everyone was wondering.
They had all heard about that explosion.
Rose died in that explosion, and reportedly, her body was so disfigured that it couldn't be pieced together-it was extremely horrific.
It seemed now that there might be more to the explosion than met the eye.
Rose, noticing everyone's gaze, said, "I took some time off for myself recently. Why? Did something happen?"
She appeared completely clueless.
The crowd was momentarily taken aback.
"It turns out it was for a vacation. But that explosion..."
"Are you talking about the warehouse explosion at the psychiatric facility?" Rose asked, and without waiting for an answer, she went on to explain, "If it weren't for that explosion, I probably wouldn't be able to take a vacation.
"The explosion that day was so powerful that I was knocked unconscious by the shockwave. Fortunately, I managed to get out early, or I would have been blown to pieces.
"But when I woke up, I realized my necklace was missing. It must have fallen off in the warehouse."
Every word Rose says was true. She really did take a vacation, and she really did get knocked out. Plus, her necklace really was missing.
Everyone knew what happened that day and couldn't help but remark how fortunate Rose was to come out of it alive.
"It turns out it was a false alarm. We thought..."
"It's just good that you're alive. It's good. It's just that today, Young Group has carried out a share distribution..."
As they thought of this, they couldn't help but have an odd expression on their faces.
After the recent redistribution of shares, Harriette became the largest shareholder
of Young Group. Wasn't tonight's dinner party being held in her honor?
Rose... probably wasn't aware of this matter, was she?
Even though she was wearing a mask just now, it seemed like everyone had seen the woman in the red gown before. If she was Rose, that meant she had already arrived at the dinner party early on.
At the dinner party, so many people were discussing today's share distribution. Even if she didn't know about it before, she would have found out afterward!
For a moment, the atmosphere felt eerie.
Everyone present fell silent. They glanced at Rose, then at Harriette, who was still on the ground with a pale face. Finally, their eyes turned to Miles, who had not spoken at all.
Miles appeared calm upon seeing Rose. It didn't seem like he just found out she was still alive, but rather it felt like he always knew.
When asked about the share distribution today, Miles smiled slightly and asked, "What share distribution?"
His few words left everyone present stunned, especially Kelly.
Her mind was racing with countless thoughts, and the mention of "share
distribution" by Miles opened the floodgates for her.
"Hey, Miles, today at the company, during the distribution of the shares you were leading..."
Kelly looked at Miles, her hoarse voice laced with a hint of urgency.
Miles maintained a gentle smile and remarked, "How could I? The shares belong
to Rose. I have no right to distribute them."
"Rose has already..."
Kelly wanted to say that Rose had already passed away. But Rose was clearly standing right here.
If Rose wasn't dead, then wouldn't the 69% shares she was supposed to receive become null and void?
How was that possible? What else could she do?
She tried to come up with a solution but quickly realized what was happening.
The most challenging issue at the moment might not be her inability to secure the 69% of Young Group's shares, but rather Miles' attitude toward her.
Miles had just watched her fall just now without any reaction. At that moment, his gaze was so cold it seemed as if he were looking at a stranger. What did it mean?
Kelly became increasingly scared and was desperate to ensure that there had been no changes in Miles's demeanor.
"Miles, can you help me up?" Kelly looked at Miles with a pleading expression.
Miles acted as if he hadn't heard anything.
Kelly felt a shocking jolt in her heart.
Rose kindly offered, "Why don't I help you up? You just helped me retrieve anoveldrama
mask, so now I'll help you up. It works out perfectly."
Rose smiled.
What she implied made Kelly's skin crawl. What did she mean? Was she planning
to get back at her?
She looked at the hand Rose
าวเ
extended toward her, hesitating to let her help. That moment of resistance didn't go unnoticed by Rose, who chuckled lightly and asked, "What? Don't want my help? Afraid I might rip your gown off?"
Rip her gown off? Kelly felt that what Rose was implying seemed to involve more
than just ripping a gown off.
Before Kelly could react, Rose grabbed her hand and pulled her up quickly.
She showed no mercy. Kelly almost stumbled again, nearly falling to the ground, but fortunately, she managed to steady herself.
However, the strength with whol net
Rose was holding her hand made her frown.
Kelly glanced at Miles, and the uneasy feeling growing inside her intensified.
Given the current situation, although Kelly was initially unwilling, she quickly adjusted and changed her attitude.
"Rose, you're okay! Why didn't you come back sooner? We thought you were dead. You have no idea how sad Miles and I were!" Kelly exclaimed.
Kelly no longer seemed afraid like before. It was as if the fear toward Rose just moments ago never existed.
Rose looked at the face with a smile, but there was a hint of sarcasm in her eyes. "Are you really sad? Because from what I could see, you seemed quite happy
today!"
What do you think?
