Honey, You're a Billionaire? novel Chapter 157

Chapter 157 Star Escort Husband is Home! 

Rose turned around. Miles‘ gaze made her freeze in place 

“Is there something you want to talk to me about?” 

Rose recalled the incident earlier when she admitted she was Oliver’s granddaughter. 

Feeling like she should give Miles an explanation, she said, “I didn’t know he was Mr. Young Senior, Miles. We met purely out of coincidence the other day- 

She explained what happened the other day, including how she sent Oliver to the hospital. 

“But I’m still not sure why he’s taken me on as his granddaughter.” 

As if recalling something. Rose then took out the card Oliver had given her during the event before. 

“Could you help me return this to Mr. Young Senior, Miles?” 

It was too precious a gift. Miles remained staring right at Rose, not accepting the card she handed him. Silence fell in the air between them. 

Rose began feeling uncomfortable with his staring. She was about to explain herself further when Miles smiled. It was an exasperated, bitter one. 

*If Grandpa hears you calling him Mr. Young Senior, he’s going to get upset,” Miles teased. 

He glanced at the card in Rose’s hand. “Keep Grandpa’s gift to you. You can buy whatever you like with it. Don’t hold back” 

Rose was taken aback by this 

“Hurry back inside now 

Miles let go of her hand, his smile now serene and calm. Rose stepped out of the car and it quickly drove 

out of sight 

When she went into the house, the lights were off. Disappointment surfaced within her. Looks like she’d been hoping her star escort husband would be home. Rose heaved a long sigh. 

“Why so upset? You’ve already been so lucky” 

A voice rang out from the darkness. 

“Ah!” Rose shrieked 

She quickly switched on the lights in the room. Her star escort husband was standing out on the balcony, arms crossed over his chest as he beamed at her. 

Rose’s mind grew blank for a moment before she asked. “What are you doing here?”

“Where else do you think I’d be?” Jonathan cocked his eyebrow, sitting down on the couch. His ey

He was feeling ecstatic right now. Now that Oliver had taken in Rose as his granddaughter, Miles would officially be her brother. That meant Miles wouldn’t be able to pursue Rose anymore 

Hence Jonathan had left even before the event ended. When he’d seen Miles drive Rose back just now,

he even sent a friendly text message to Miles. 

Rose’s scalp prickled at the sight of Jonathan’s possessive gaze. Where did Rose think he would be? At the Young Estate, of course, with his new love interest 

Rose met Jonathan’s gaze with a roll of her eyes. She then went back to her room to wash Miles‘ expression darkened upon reading the text message Jonathan had sent him. 

*Congratulations on having a new sister, Mr. Young.” 

1. up. Meanwhile, 

Even through the screen, Miles could imagine just how pleased Jonathan was when he sent this text message. Miles no longer had a chance to retaliate, however. 

His heart bunched into knots as he tossed his phone to the side. 

“Drive me to someplace where I can get a drink 

he ordered the driver. 

Miles ended up drunk off his ass. 

Jamie hadn’t attended the event hosted by the Young family due to his face injury. The moment Kelly returned home, Jamie and Chelsea immediately asked her who was the one the Young family chose. 

Envy boiled in Kelly’s heart when she thought about Rose. 

“I… I didn’t go.” 

Kelly didn’t want to tell Jamie it was Rose who got chosen. 

“Why not?” Jamie could see the disappointment on Kelly’s face. “Did something happen?” 

One look at Jamie and Kelly immediately started crying. Jamie’s and Chelsea’s hearts ached at the sight. They instantly went to console her. After some more questioning, Kelly finally croaked out. 

“The Lane. The Lane family might call off the wedding engagement.” 

“Why…?” 

Jamie was in disbelief at first. But when he saw how upset Kelly was, he flew into a rage. 

“How could the Lane family push you around like this? I’m going to go over there right now and demand 

an answer!” 

Jamie was about to rush out the door when Kelly stopped him. 

She put on a pitiful act and said, “Don’t go, Dad. What if Mrs. Lane Senior questions you about my background? How would you answer?” 

Jamie froze on the spot, suddenly realizing the Lane family was calling off the engagement because of what Rose said the other day. 

“Damn you, Rose!” Jamie snarled to himself. 

Kelly recalled Nixon’s words from earlier, what he said about being unable to keep this news silent as they needed to appease Rose. 

They needed to make sure this news was spread far and wide, making Kelly appear as if she was suffering. But why did Kelly have to suffer? She angrily ground her teeth, feeling upset.

“Dad, the Lane family has decided to announce that the wedding is over at the Aquastead Hotel tomorrow, where it was announced last time. We have to be there,” Kelly said, a tear falling down her 

cheek. 

Jamie got so furious he flung the glasses on the table to the floor, shattering them. 

“We’ll be there! We’re not going to just let them humiliate us!” 

Kelly sobbed harder, gnawing on her lip. Chelsea cried along with her by her side. The three harbored anger for a time. 

In the end, Kelly said with a bitter sigh, “Let’s just go, Dad. I don’t want to make things difficult for Nixon.” 

“Silly girl,” Chelsea said weakly. 

She quickly helped Kelly back to her room, the latter already pale from how much she’d been crying. The moment they shut the door, Kelly’s expression turned to one of sheer hatred. 

“What happened exactly that made the Lane family call the engagement off?” Chelsea asked, wiping her 

tears away. 

She knew her daughter like the back of her hand. 

If the Lane family called the engagement off only because of what Rose said the other day, Kelly could’ve turned the situation to her benefit instead of being pushed around like this. 

“Hmph. Rose happened, of course. She’s always so lucky. The new granddaughter Mr. Young Senior took in was Rose,” Kelly gritted out. 

If it was anyone else, Kelly would’ve only felt admiration for them. But since it was Rose, she felt nothing 

but envy. 

“What did you say?” Chelsea gasped. 

“Rose is now Mr. Young Senior’s granddaughter, which makes her part of their family. Now that she has them backing her up, I’m doomed to always be the losing party. I don’t accept this, Mom. Even the Lane family is humiliating me just so they can kiss her ass!” Kelly cried angrily. 

If she wasn’t trying to prevent Jamie from suspecting anything, she would’ve smashed everything in her room to the floor by now to vent her anger. 

But Chelsea had a feeling something was off. 

“Why would Mr. Young Senior choose Rose for no reason?” 

Chelsea didn’t believe in luck. There must be some reason why Oliver chose Rose. 

As If realizing this, Kelly met her mother’s gaze, saying, “There must be some reason behind it. I need to find out what it is.”
