Honey, You're a Billionaire? novel Chapter 443

The pressure on her neck increased, and the gaze before her was filled with hatred. There was no conflict between Rose and Ezra, so why would there be any resentment? She deduced that he had mistaken her for someone else.

"Ezra, look at me. It's me, Rose…" She squeezed out her words amid the chokehold.

Ezra visibly froze when he heard her name. The person before him was Rose, but the headache caused him to jolt his head. When he reopened his eyes, he saw the person he resented again.

"Give her back to me!" he yelled, resuming the force on her neck. His eyes even showed signs of murderous intent as he repeatedly mumbled, "You're a vicious woman. Give her back to me! Now!"

Vicious woman? Give her back to him? Rose became more confused at this point.

The air was thinning in her lungs, and she exerted great strength to pry open the fingers on her neck. However, she had underestimated his power.

Soon, the inevitable suffocation led her to unconsciousness. Amidst her weakness, she called out his name. "Jon… nathan…"

…

Almost all of the paintings in the exhibition had sold out. In the gallery, Cyrus' birthday banquet officially commenced.

When Jonathan arrived, he saw Cyrus encircled by a group of guests in the center of the exhibition. Beside him was Lizzie, who was locking arms with him. Although the gap in their ages was very wide, they looked compatible nevertheless.

"Mr. Finch, you're so lucky to have a wife like her. I heard Mrs. Finch has put a lot of effort into organizing this art exhibition."

"That's right. You guys are the epitome of love."

Cyrus smiled in response, while Lizzie looked like a beloved wife beside him.

Glancing at the "couple" among the crowd, Jonathan quickly withdrew his cold gaze as he focused on something more important.

"Mr. Jonathan…" an unknowing person called out in shock.

Allegedly, Jonathan and Cyrus shared a poor father-and-son relationship. Back when Cyrus managed Finch Group, Jonathan had never shown up for his father's birthdays.

Despite stepping down, many still attended his birthday banquet this year. To their surprise, they got to see Jonathan!

"Mr. Jonathan, what a pleasure to see you here. I'm…"

"Mr. Jonathan, I'm sure you don't remember me, but we met…"

"Mr. Jonathan…"

Everybody rushed to meet the new ruler of Finch Group, who was rarely accessible, hoping to get a chance to introduce themselves.

All of a sudden, the original focus in the gallery, Cyrus, shifted to Jonathan. Just like the power of the Finch family, the Finch Group had long been under Jonathan's control.

She almost looked like she sincerely wanted the father and son to mend their broken bond, as if that was her plan the whole time. Naturally, Cyrus caressed her hand and gladly followed her to the crowd.

As the mob grew, Jonathan had had enough. "Get out of my way!" he piped up among the eager introductions.

Everyone was startled. Similarly, Cyrus and Lizzie halted in their steps. Looking at Jonathan's darkened expression, the crowd finally realized they had pushed him to his limit.

The crowd gradually sensed eye contact between Cyrus and Jonathan and realized they were in the duo's way. As such, they swiftly cleared a path.

Without any hesitation, Jonathan strode forward, his speed stunning Cyrus. He had never seen such an enthusiastic expression on his son in a long time. As Jonathan came closer, Cyrus' smile widened.

"Jo…" Cyrus had just uttered a syllable when Jonathan brushed past him. The unfinished name and smile froze on his face.

Jonathan's steps quickened, and he headed toward a random hallway. He grabbed hold of Miles, who had just arrived, and asked anxiously, "Where's Rose?" He glanced around and didn't see her.

The downcast Miles looked up and finally saw Jonathan. He instantly grabbed Jonathan's hand and said, "Rosie is gone. I searched the entire gallery and couldn't find her. She's not picking up her calls…"

"You've searched every corner of this gallery?" Jonathan's worry increased. He looked back and scanned the crowd.

Knowing that Rose had come here to uncover Yvonne's perpetrator, he confirmed that Yosef and Jack were in his sight. Still, he couldn't relax his anxious heart.

Miles suddenly thought of something. "No. There's still a spot…"
