Who's Rose Married To

Kelly's eyes sparkled with anticipation. She was determined to find out why Oliver had chosen Rose. If possible, she would stop at nothing to shatter Rose's dream of becoming a part of the Youngs. But where should she start? Suddenly, Kelly remembered the woman she had seen in the main hall of Young Estate today.

She recalled that when Oliver announced Rose as his new granddaughter, that young lady had appeared surprised. Oliver called her Anastasia.

Kelly's eyes lit up as she hastily took out her phone and searched for the name "Anastasia". Anastasia Young, the heiress to the Young family. It turned out she was originally a member of the Youngs! Since Anastasia didn't like Rose, perhaps Kelly could start with Anastasia. With this thought in mind, Kelly's excitement gradually grew.

She silently vowed, "Mom, I know what to do now. Don't worry. If the Lane family wants to use me to please Rose, I'll make them regret it someday."

The next day, Rose went to the office as usual. Upon arriving, she found numerous people waiting in the meeting room. William hurried to Rose when he saw her.

"Ms. Shaffer, I don't know what's going on. But when I arrived at the office today, these people were already here, saying they wanted to work with Celeste Jewels."

These potential collaborators included suppliers of various jewelry materials and invitations from large designer studios for joint designs with Celeste Jewels. Rose, of course, knew the reason behind this.

Last night, Oliver had announced her as his new granddaughter, and these people had already discovered her company overnight. The Young family's reputation was indeed influential.

Since business was knocking on her door, Rose had no reason to decline. For the whole morning, she dealt with these people. Around noon, Anastasia unexpectedly arrived.

"Rosie, are you finished with your work? If you are, let me take you out for lunch."

Anastasia was dressed in luxury, exuding the air of a young lady from a prestigious family. She walked directly into Rose's office as if they were well-acquainted. The sudden familiarity caught Rose off guard.

"Do you n

need something from me, Ms. Young?"

Sensing Rose's slightly distant attitude, Anastasia immediately looked at Rose coquettishly.

"Rosie, have you already forgotten in just one night? I'm your sister now. If you continue to be this reserved, I might have to complain to Grandpa."

Anastasia reached for Rose's wrist and said, "Come on, I'm taking you out for lunch. Miles entrusted this task to me. If he hadn't been so drunk last night, he would have picked you up himself."

-Miles get drunk? When he had parted ways with Rose last night, he had been completely sober. Not

dwelling on it, Rose allowed Anastasia to take her out of the office.

Anastasia drove them to Aquastead Hotel, and once they arrived at the rooftop garden restaurant, Nixon

called. Rose only checked the caller ID and promptly declined the call. However, the caller seemed relentless, continuously calling her number.

"Who

t? Why aren't you answering?" Anastasia asked, frowning.

Rose smirked.

"A disgusting person. Let me take the call."

Even if he was disgusting, she had no choice but to answer. Rose walked to the restroom while taking the call.

"Nixon, are you trying to inform me of your death in advance?" She spoke without any courtesy.

Every pore on her body exuded disgust toward Nixon. On the other end of the call, Nixon gritted his teeth and thought that Rose was despicable and was nothing like Kelly. However, considering Rose's current relationship with the Young family, he had no other choice but to endure. He immediately put on a smiling face.

"Don't be angry, Rose. I called to ask you out for a meal."

Hearing that, Rose was speechless for a moment. Why was he asking her out for a meal? Didn't he disdainfully issue a warning to her at the Young Estate last night?

His attitude had changed in just one night? Of course, Rose knew the reason behind it, but she remained composed.

"Tell me. Why are you asking me out for a meal?"

Nixon replied, "Because I want to apologize to you. We had some misunderstandings before, and I hope you won't hold it against me. We were so good together back then.

"As long as we both let go, everything can go back to the way it was."

Rose felt like she had just heard a huge joke.

"Why do you think we were ever good together? If we were so good, why did you cheat on me with Kelly?"

She chuckled coldly.

Before hanging up the phone, Rose addressed Nixon on the other end firmly, "Go back to the way it was. In your dreams!"

She hung up the phone, feeling satisfied. Nixon would go wherever there were benefits. He was truly disgusting. In the hallway of Aquastead Hotel's rooftop garden restaurant, Nixon frowned. Kelly was standing next to him, and she had heard the entire phone conversation between Rose and Nixon. She bit her lip, looking upset.

"Rose minds that we were together behind her back. It's all my fault. I'm a burden to

Nixon."

"Don't say that, Kelly. It's not your fault. We love each other, and neither of us is to blame," Nixon comforted Kelly gently as he held her hand.

It was Rose's fault for finding out about them and suddenly getting married, which had ruined his engagement with Kelly.

Now, he had to deal with Rose. Not only did he need to hurt Kelly, but he also had to find a way to locate Rose's husband.

"Kelly, who's Rose married to?" Nixon asked in confusion.

He had been searching for a long time but couldn't find any information about Rose's husband. The county clerk's office system repeatedly showed "unknown".

"Have you met him?" Nixon asked, staring at Kelly.

A fleeting sense of guilt passed through Kelly's eyes.

"No, I haven't."

She couldn't tell him that the man Rose had married was none other than Jonathan. Kelly didn't want him to investigate Rose's husband's identity, so she immediately tried to divert his attention. "What should we do if Rose doesn't show up?"

Although she said that, she knew Rose had already arrived. She thought back to her encounter with Anastasia outside Century Tower.

Anastasia's appearance at Rose's company building early in the morning showed that the former had a keen interest in Rose.

Kelly had approached her and mentioned Aquastead Hotel, but she hadn't expected that Anastasia had brought Rose here with her.

"I'll think of a way. Kelly, if I hurt you later, don't be mad at me. I promise to make it up to you."

Nixon held Kelly's hand. As they made their way back to the private room, Rose was coming out of the restroom. The moment Rose passed by one of the private rooms, she heard a voice calling her.

"Rosie?"

When she saw the person who had called her, she instinctively frowned.

"Mrs. Lane Senior?"

Chloe came forward with great enthusiasm, shaking Rose's hand.

"Rosie, you're finally here. Come on in. We've been waiting for you.
