Honey, You're a Billionaire? novel Chapter 493

At the Finch Manor, Eleanor stood in place for a long time after they left. None of the others dared to leave without her permission.

Lizzie noticed something unusual in Eleanor's demeanor, and soon a suspicion formed in her mind. "Ms. Shaffer is truly something. A Xanth from Lerain Group. That man seems to treat her quite special."

Special indeed! Eleanor lowered her gaze and was lost in thought.

Bella echoed, "She already knows how to deal with men so well at such a young age."

She assumed her words would incite Eleanor's dislike toward Rose, but Eleanor glanced at her instead. Bella inexplicably shivered under her gaze. Only after Eleanor left with a grave look on her face did Bella relax.

"It's late, and it's inconvenient for you to go back since you're pregnant. You should just stay here tonight," Bella said as she pulled Yara along and arranged for her to stay.

Anastasia didn't receive such treatment. She noticed Lizzie's deep, contemplative gaze and decided not to disturb her.

Tonight's events clearly hadn't pleased Lizzie. She had schemed to bring Rose here, but Eleanor's attitude toward Rose remained ambiguous, especially the warning look Eleanor gave Bella before leaving. Lizzie felt uncertain.

Bella arranged for Yara to stay in a guest room closest to her own. After they entered the room, they were silent for a long time before they spoke in unison.

"Rose shall not stay!"

They exchanged glances and understood that they shared the same thought.

"Mr. Finch left with them. He still doesn't care about me. What's so special about Rose? She's just a woman from Aquastead, from a powerless family…"

Although Yara was trying to belittle Rose, her words exposed her jealousy.

Bella was reminded of Jack who was still detained at the police station. She had planned to wait until Jonathan married Yara and hoped that his interest in Rose would wane before dealing with Rose. But Clover…

"The Lerain Group, the Xanth family…" Bella hadn't paid much attention to it, but she suddenly thought of the Lerain Group after returning to her room.

She heard Yosef mention that Eleanor had always wanted to expand their foreign business with the help of the Lerain Group.

Clover's concern for Rose meant that she wouldn't be easy to deal with even without Jonathan present. In that case, it was better to act sooner.

"Yara, now that you're pregnant, your top priority is to take good care of the baby. This child is your pass to marry Jonathan. You must marry him!" Bella said firmly.

Yara shot Bella a questioning glance. "What about Rose?"

"I'll take care of everything." Yara's eyes gleamed with determination.

Yara was satisfied to hear that. "Don't worry, Aunt Bella. I'll help Jack once I marry Jonathan. We'll truly be one family then."

Jack was the reason Bella was doing all this. Yosef was just her husband to lean on, but Jack was her life.

"Good. Remember your words, Yara."

"I swear I will!"

With that, their eyes met, reaching an agreement.

Two luxury cars sped along on the roads of Mount Ebott. Rose had gotten into Jonathan's car, while Clover's car followed closely behind.

Rose felt a heavy weight in her chest. She could easily guess what happened next that led to Yara's pregnancy.

Jonathan continued speaking, but Rose didn't want to hear what he had to say.

"Jonathan…" Rose tried to interrupt him.

But in the next moment, Jonathan released her hand and pressed a button in the car. A woman's voice sounded.

"Damn it, how could he pass out? Even if you're unconscious, I, Yara Maize, will get what I want tonight."

The sound of rustling followed, and the frustration in Yara's voice was evident. "Damn it! It's impossible. He's like a dead man, and I can't move him at all. What can I do? I can't go on like this…"

There was a pause. Yara seemed to be thinking of a solution before she laughed softly as if she had a brilliant idea.

"No problem if you can't do it. I'll have someone else do it. As long as I have your mark on me by morning, you'll have to take responsibility." Yara then dialed a number.

The atmosphere in the car turned eerie. Apart from the static noise, Yara occasionally muttered about how useless it was for Jonathan to be unconscious.

There was a knock at the door after a long while, and the sound of it opening followed.

Then, the sound of heavy breathing of a man and woman filled the car, mixed with occasional low moans from Yara that echoed throughout the car.

Rose's face was burning hot. The sounds grew more explicit and indecent. Rose was stunned until Jonathan raised his hand and turned off the recording.

Only then did Rose snap out of it, though she still couldn't fully regain her composure.
