Honey, You're a Billionaire? novel Chapter 463

The police quickly escorted everyone from Jack's villa, including the women. Rose knew that the news would soon reach the Finch family, and they wouldn't just sit by idly.

"So, how was it? Were the stars beautiful?" Emily asked as Rose stepped away from the telescope. Having already notified her subordinates, Emily was now waiting for their report.

"They look great! Really beautiful!" Rose replied, feeling a sense of satisfaction from watching Jack being taken away by the police.

However, her worry about the Finch family's potential retaliation made her response seem absent-minded.

Clover and Emily noticed her unease but didn't press her further. "How about we have some drinks?" Clover suggested.

Before Rose could respond, Emily chimed in. "Yes. It's Mr. Xanth's first time staying here, so let's take this opportunity to celebrate his new move and enjoy some of the excellent wine in his cellar!"

With such a reason, Rose couldn't refuse. They headed downstairs, and Emily went to the wine cellar before returning with a few of the finest bottles.

The woman who Rose had rescued seemed to be slowly recovering from the effects of the drugs she had been given. Perhaps due to her narrow escape, she inadvertently drank a bit more than she should have.

"Ro... Rose? Can I call you Rose too?" the woman asked, her eyes still holding a cautious look despite her intoxicated state. She wanted to call Rose by her name but feared she wasn't worthy.

"Of course, you can," Rose replied, meeting the woman's gaze.

Receiving Rose's approval, the woman's face lit up with a bright smile. "Thank you, Rose. My name is Sadie Luxe. About Yvonne…" Sadie's eyes dimmed as she mentioned Yvonne.

The haunting memory of Yvonne lying on the ground at the celebration party came rushing back to her, filling her with guilt.

She could vaguely piece together what Yvonne had gone through that night. To avoid being violated by Jack, Yvonne had chosen to jump out of a window.

Tonight, Sadie had nearly faced the same fate. If it weren't for Rose, she was certain she wouldn't have escaped Jack's clutches. She shuddered to think of what her life would have been like afterward.

She thought, "Rose has saved me. But Yvonne…"

"Is she okay?" Sadie finally asked, unable to contain her concern.

Thinking of Yvonne lying in the hospital bed, covered in injuries, yet always smiling and comforting everyone despite her pain, Rose felt a pang of sorrow. "She's... alive," she said, her voice tinged with sadness.

Hearing that Yvonne was still alive, Sadie sighed in relief, yet her expression remained solemn. She knew from Rose's demeanor that Yvonne's condition was likely far from good.

Sadie raised her glass and clinked it against Rose's before declaring with resolve, "She'll get better."

These words seemed to inject a bit of hope into Rose's heart. Rose met Sadie's eyes and firmly repeated her words. "She'll get better."

She was confident that the ever-optimistic Yvonne would recover.

Clover and Emily did not interrupt the conversation between Rose and Sadie, nor did they inquire about Yvonne or the meaning behind Sadie's plea for help. After all, they could easily piece together the events with Emily's investigation and some common sense.

Understanding immediately, Emily nodded. "With Jack's arrest, the Finch family will likely act swiftly to get him out.

"Jack won't take tonight's events lightly, and even if he doesn't retaliate directly, those trying to help him might target Rose and the other women."

She had considered all possible scenarios. Clover looked at her, noting the meticulous care she took in planning. His gaze softened slightly as he appreciated her thoroughness and reliability.

Emily didn't notice the subtle change in Clover's gaze. She knew that he would see things through once he decided to get involved. Their long-standing rapport meant she could handle most of the details without his constant oversight.

"Although the Xanth family isn't based in Regalia, they've maintained some connections over the years. Keeping Jack detained shouldn't be too difficult, but it might require your intervention," Emily suggested.

Clover snapped back to attention. "Arrange a dinner meeting," he instructed, quickly shifting his gaze away as if to dismiss any personal thoughts.

His focus returned to the matter at hand, and he frowned. "As for the Finch family..." He paused, his voice growing colder. "Let Jonathan know about Jack's actions tonight."

"Jonathan, the recently appointed head of the Finch family?" Emily mused. She was surprised by this decision but accepted the instruction without question. "Understood, I'll handle it as you've directed. You should rest now."

As Emily turned to leave, Clover called out, "Wait."

She looked back, meeting Clover's gorgeous eyes.

"Stay," he said, leaning back in his chair and extending an inviting arm toward her.
