Chapter 655 He Likes Someone
Anastasia was surprised. She was surprised by what Rose just said. She thought that Rose had gathered them today to retract everything that Miles had promised
that day.
She knew that the reason Miles agreed to the 10% share at the shareholders' meeting that day was just to put on a show, one specifically designed for Kelly.
Miles built up false hopes for Harriette, making her feel eager and proud, only to eventually shatter all of her expectations and pride that was his goal.
Since the goal had been achieved, the 10% share wouldn't actually be given. Everything was just a verbal promise for now, and none of the procedures had been put in place yet, making it all too easy to break the promise.
But she didn't expect Rose to say that the 10% of shares would still count. Rose even said they deserved the shares.
Anastasia looked at Rose. Her expression transitioned from surprise to disbelief, eventually reaching a gentle admiration, simply because she found no trace of insincerity and only genuine emotion in Rose's eyes,
She genuinely wanted to give them that 10% of the shares.
Rose was fully aware of the true value of the 10% of shares of Young Group.
At that moment, Anastasia felt an unusual sensation spreading through her, and she finally understood why Rose was so likable.
Jonathan loved Rose for a reason, and Miles protecting her was to be completely expected.
Anastasia felt that she was definitely not as good as Rose!
"The lawyer came today, and I've already signed the agreement to transfer 10% of the shares. If you two have no objections, once you sign, I'll have the lawyer handle the next steps in the process."
As soon as Rose finished speaking, Chloe nodded excitedly, saying, "Alright! I have no objections! None! I'll sign right away."
Chloe, worried that Rose might change her mind, didn't hesitate for a second and quickly signed her name on the document the lawyer presented without even looking at it.
It was only at this moment that she finally felt at ease.
"Rose..." Chloe felt somewhat emotional.
She suddenly found herself feeling quite fond of her niece. It was no wonder Gabriel often warned her not to have any ill intentions toward Rose.
At that moment, Chloe had quite a bit to say to Rose, but when she turned around, Rose was nowhere to be seen.
In fact, Rose was nowhere to be seen in the entire conference room.
"Ro... Where is Rose?" Chloe asked Anastasia.
Not only had Rose disappeared, but Miles was also missing.
Anastasia glanced at the doors of the conference room and said, "She left."
"She already left?" Chloe looked a bit disappointed. It seemed like the visit had
been just about taking care of this matter and then leaving quickly.
They were all part of the Young family, and being a family meant staying connected emotionally.
Chloe furrowed her brows. She remained deep in thought when she suddenly murmured, "What does Rose... like?"
Chloe instinctively glanced at Anastasia. But after just one glance, she dismissively rolled her eyes and said, "You probably don't know either."
But then, who actually knew?
Given Miles' personality, even if Chloe asked him, he wouldn't give her an answer. He likely would also be wary of her potentially having any ill intentions toward Rose.
Who else would know?
"Gabriel!" Chloe's eyes suddenly lit up and she quickly took out her phone to call Gabriel.
As soon as the phone was connected, she anxiously said, "About Rose, does she
Before she could finish speaking, Gabriel interrupted her, "Mom, I've told you countless times. Don't think about doing anything to Rose. You..."
Ten minutes ago, Gabriel found out that Chloe was neither at home nor at the Yones family's company.
He was worried. He knew Chloe was going to look for Rose when he got a call. At that moment, Gabriel had a bad feeling. "Why won't you listen? Where are you? You haven't met with Rose, right? Don't do anything. I'm coming to get you right now."
Gabriel couldn't shake off his unease. He knew Chloe's personality all too well. She was selfish, opportunistic, and impulsive. She had little sense of morality or boundaries when it came to getting what she wanted.
Rose was not someone she should mess with, and more than that, he didn't want her to cause trouble for Rose.
Gabriel's words seemed to have had an impact as Chloe's expression turned unpleasant.
"I met Rose," Chloe said coolly.
She heard Gabriel clearly pause his breathing for a moment over the phone. "You
didn't do anything to Rose, did you?" he asked.
From his tone, it seemed uncertain about whether he was more concerned for Rose or for Chloe.
In the past, something like this would have upset Chloe. But today, she was really happy!
"What could I possibly do to her?
Rose is such a wonderful girl. How could lever bear to do anything to her?" When Chloe thought of Rose, a radiant smile spread across her face.
Gabriel was speechless. He thought he had misheard her.
"By the way, I wanted to ask you. What does Rose like?" Chloe remembered what she wanted to ask, looking hopeful.
On the other end of the phone, Gabriel was still in a daze. When he snapped back
to reality, he frowned even more deeply.
Did Chloe just say Rose's name affectionately?
In the past, Chloe used to refer to Rose in his presence either as "Rose" or "that
brat",
but today, she actually called her Rose with such a sweet tone.
"What are you planning?" he asked. Gabriel could not lower his guard down in the slightest.
He still couldn't believe Chloe's change in attitude toward Rose. The only
explanation could be that she was scheming something.
Chloe finally lost her temper. "What do you mean by 'planning something? I was just finding out what she likes because I wanted to give her a gift. I'm genuinely trying to be nice. Is there something wrong with that?"
Gabriel frowned, still in disbelief.
"Just tell me already. What does she actually like?" Chloe asked somewhat impatiently.
She wanted to quickly get an answer so she could get a gift ready for Rose. But Gabriel was unsure about what Rose liked. "I don't know," he replied.noveldrama
"You don't know?" Chloe suddenly raised her voice, sounding full of disdain. "Aren't you pretty interested in her? You don't even know what she likes?"
"Mom!"
It was as if his own secret had been exposed. Gabriel felt a bit uneasy and said, "I really don't know!"
After he was done speaking, Gabriel hung up the phone.
The words Chloe just said kept echoing in his mind. "Aren't you quite interested in
her?"
"Mr. Yones, why is your face red?"
Nearby, a scion named Ethan Walker came over after he saw Gabriel. He couldn't help but express his surprise.
Gabriel's face was flushed in an unusually severe way.
What was even more unusual was Gabriel's reaction that followed.
He looked around frantically, quickly raising his hand to touch his face As their eyes met, it was clear from Gabriel's expression that he was embarrassed about a secret being discovered.
Ethan was shocked. What did he just see? Did Gabriel have someone he liked?
He definitely did!
Ethan immediately started trying to fawn over him. "Mr. Yones, if there's someone you fancy, I can go—"
"Get lost!"
Ethan hadn't even finished speaking when Gabriel interrupted him coldly, his gaze sharper than anything Ethan had ever seen.
Ethan felt a chill in his heart and quickly started running away. However, after just
a few steps, Gabriel stopped him by calling out to him.
"Come back!"
Ethan paused in his tracks and turned around. He felt a shiver run through him as
he met Gabriel's gaze. "Mr. Yones... is there something you need?"
Gabriel narrowed his eyes. His current gaze seemed to create a very tense atmosphere. "What did you see just now?"
What do you think?
