No Longer Dislike Mr. Finch
An hour later, the auction was coming to an end. When Rose woke up, she overheard a conversation between the two nurses who were staying to look after her.
"Oh my goodness, 500 million! The couple's rings sold for a staggering 500 million!"
"And the fire opal necklace, they were all bought by Mr. Finch..."
They were excited as they gossiped. They had overheard the commotion from the auction outside; there were at least three parties continuously bidding, creating an insane atmosphere.
"I wonder who the final lucky owner of that couple of rings will be..."This belongs to NôvelDrama.Org - ©.
"That's obvious, given how nervous Mr. Finch was for Ms. Shaffer just now...
They exchanged glances while brimming with envy. However, upon seeing Rose had awakened, their expressions suddenly changed.
The hospital director had warned them not to mention Jonathan in front of Rose. Furthermore, they couldn't reveal to her that he had saved her.
'Ms.
Shaffer..." one of the nurses said, looking concerned.
Rose's mind was fixated on the couple rings.
"The rings were auctioned?" she asked.
"Yes."
The nurse dared not lie. In Rose's mind, the handsome face of her star escort husband appeared. She instinctively didn't want the couple rings to fall into someone else's hands.
She tried to get up hurriedly, knowing that as long as she hadn't signed the auction contract, there might still be a chance. As she moved, the pain from her wound made her break into a cold sweat. However, she would endure it for the couple rings. She recalled the confrontation with "Mr. Finch" in the darkness that night and the kidnapping that almost took her life.
She knew that anything associated with him would not lead to anything good. She had to get the couple of rings back no matter what.
"Ms. Shaffer, you need to rest ..."
She ignored the nurse's efforts and started walking toward the door. As she reached halfway, the door opened. Jonathan was standing in the doorway.
Upon seeing that Rose was awake, his initial concern vanished instantly, but only for a moment. The next moment, his brows furrowed as he thought of her moving randomly when she had just awakened. She was disobedient. He was about to reprimand her, but her voice came out first.
"Hubby... hurry, take me out."
Jonathan's brows gradually relaxed. The two nurses had their mouths hanging open out of shock as Rose had just called Jonathan "hubby". Not only did he not refute it, but he even came forward and held her.
They could see that his cold face carried a hint of indulgence. They were shocked that Mr. Finch had gotten married. It was truly earth-shattering news! The two of them were so excited.
Even as Jonathan had left the lounge with Rose, they remained in shock and couldn't wait to spread this news to make everyone equally astonished.
However, thinking about the hospital director's order to maintain confidentiality, they felt a sense of trepidation. Perhaps what they had just learned wasn't news, but a secret.
Who would dare to broadcast Mr Finch's secret everywhere? They exchanged glances and immediately decided to be silent about it.
Outside the lounge, the bodyguards had been dispersed, leaving only a few skilled members of Azure
Clan guarding from the shadows. Jonathan carried Rose and made their way out of the venue.
Just as they took a few steps, Rose sensed that they were going in the wrong direction.
"We should go to the guest room!" she quickly corrected him.
"Why go to the guest room?" Jonathan frowned, not stopping his steps.
"To look for Mr. Finch, of course!"
Jonathan's steps came to a halt. He looked at her with his deep, dark eyes.
"What do you want to find him for? You no longer dislike him?"
"How could I not dislike him?!" Rose gritted her teeth and scoffed,
He had shut her out in the entire city, making it impossible for her to find a hotel to stay in or even rent a place. She hadn't forgotten the countless grievances against him.
"Mr. Finch is a petty and vengeful person. He seeks revenge for the slightest offense. With him involved, nothing good can happen....
Before she finished her word, Jonathan's eyes seemed to grow even darker.
