Chapter 632 Still Alive
Rose quickly dismissed this speculation. There was no way Gabriel recognized her.
At that moment, the person in front of Gabriel was a stranger. Perhaps he had overheard something earlier and was kindly reminding her to stay safe.
"Thank you, Mr. Yones," Rose expressed her sincere gratitude.
Gabriel paused in his motion of tilting his head back to drink, having not looked at her before. Only now did he slowly turn his gaze to the person in front of him.
The mask covered most of her face, but the curve of her lips that was visible formed a warm smile, creating a feeling of friendliness and comfort.
But that smile... Gabriel experienced a moment of confusion.
He found it amusing how certain thoughts would suddenly pop into his head and then just as quickly disappear. Why did he think the person in front of him was Rose? Rose had already...
Suppressing a sigh, Gabriel smiled politely at the person in front of him and said, "You're welcome. Be careful and leave here safely."
After finishing speaking, Gabriel left.
Rose watched as he walked away.
Kelly's gaze turned in time to catch Gabriel walking away from the woman in the red dress, and that woman...
Gabriel had already walked away, yet she still couldn't let go of him?
Oh, did she have a crush on Gabriel? But Gabriel's character...
When she was at Aquastead, she thought Gabriel was a great catch. However, after coming to Regalia, she realized that Gabriel was just an unambitious and frivolous rich heir.
Even so, Gabriel probably wasn't interested in her. If she couldn't see it now, she certainly wouldn't see it later.
In Kelly's line of sight, an attendant approached the figure in the red dress and said something to her. Then, she was seen walking toward the villa.
Kelly had a fleeting glint of malice in her eyes. She knew that Olivia must have made her move.
Olivia was going to... rip off her gown! And after that...
Kelly's thoughts were filled with a mix of maliciousness and excitement.
Rose walked into the villa after being informed by the attendant that someone was waiting for her in the restroom to discuss an important matter.
She knew that everything for tonight had already been arranged by Jonathan and Miles. Therefore, she didn't need to be afraid. She just needed to keep moving forward.
Upon entering the villa, she headed straight for the bathroom.
The guests at the dinner party tonight were all in the garden outside the villa. Meanwhile, Rose went into the villa and didn't come across anyone.
Finally, she saw the bathroom on the first floor. As she walked straight in, the door closed behind her. Just as her feet crossed the threshold, Rose turned around and saw the person behind her. She was momentarily taken aback.
"Shh..." The person held onto Rose's hand, worried she might make a noise and scared of startling her, spoke quickly, "Ms. Shaffer, it's me. Don't be afraid. I won't hurt you."
Rose was surprised that the person had actually recognized her. Was she part of the plan to fake Rose's death from the beginning?
Rose had many questions in her mind. She looked at the person in front of her and said, "It's you."
Of course she recognized her. She was the receptionist who was given a hard time by Chloe that day at Young Group.
She remembered that on the day of the explosion, when she was chasing the fake Harriette out of the company, it was right then in the elevator that this girl handed an umbrella to her.
The girl was well-intentioned toward Rose.
"You are..." Rose rarely interacted with her on a daily basis and didn't know her
name.
"Olivia. My name is Olivia Lenner." Olivia looked at Rose with what seemed like stars twinkling in her eyes.
Rose had finally asked for her name. How fantastic!
"Olivia," Rose noted. "You know..."
Rose didn't need to explain, and it seemed like an explanation wasn't necessary, as Olivia had understood. "I know. Don't worry, Ms. Shaffer. Mr. Young won't let anything happen to you."
She wouldn't either!
However, according to Miles, in order to surprise Harriette, certain things needed to be shown to her in a way that she could see.
Rose wasn't dumb. Seeing Olivia looking a bit troubled, Rose asked, "Anything I can do to help?"
"Rest assured, Ms. Shaffer. I won't actually harm you. It's just that Ms. Harriette wants to embarrass you. She wants to snatch your mask and even strip you of your gown, and perhaps even more..."
Olivia thought about what Harriette had instructed her to do, and she couldn't help
but feel a strong sense of righteous indignation.
"Ms. Harriette... she's so malicious. Even though she didn't know you were Ms.
Shaffer, she still harbored such malice toward a stranger."
Rose gave a slight smile. That was exactly Kelly's style!
Kelly was known for holding grudges. When she was still a stepdaughter in the Shaffer family she would act indifferent on the surface but would find ways to retaliate behind the scenes if anyone offended her.
Just like when she had seduced Nixon.
Nowadays, with Harriette's appearance and the Young family's status, she could
do whatever she wanted.
The evil in her heart only grew stronger.
The simple phrase "Be more careful" was more than enough for her to seek revenge fiercely. Did she want to rip off her gown?
Rose lowered her eyes and asked, "How do you need me to cooperate?"
Olivia quickly shook her head and said, "I can't rip Ms.Shaffer's gown, but I do need to borrow it for a moment..."
It wasn't like Miles would actually allow Rose to be insulted, but even Olivia wouldn't do that.
Just one video was needed to convince Harriette that the woman in the red dress had her gown ripped off. She could take the place of the person in the video.
Rose instantly understood what she meant. But Olivia was also a girl...
She hadn't voiced her concerns yet when she heard a noise outside the door.
Rose and Olivia exchanged a glance and immediately went on high alert. Olivia instinctively positioned herself protectively in front of Rose as she opened the bathroom door.
There was a tall silhouette outside the door.
The mask that Rose saw startled her.
It was Gabriel! Did he... overhear?
At that moment, Gabriel had an intense look in his eyes, gazing past Olivia and
directly at the person standing behind her.
He had heard it!
He had seen the woman in the red dress enter the villa amidst the crowd.
He had clearly reminded her to go home early and stay safe, but she didn't listen.
He didn't really want to meddle in others' fates anymore.
But he didn't know why he couldn't shake the moment when he saw the slight smile at the corner of the woman's mouth beneath her mask from his mind.
Then, almost as if he was driven by some supernatural force, he followed along.
He thought to himself that the person who ran into him today was quite lucky.
If Harriette really intended to do something to her, he would save her and send her down the mountain. However, unexpectedly, when he was outside the bathroom, he overheard... "Ms. Shaffer".
Did that assistant call the woman "Ms. Shaffer"?
At that moment, only these two words were running through his mind, causing him
to accidentally make a noise. He then looked at the woman in the red dress
wearing a black cat mask.
The slightly visible eyes... the gently upturned lips...
"Ro...se."noveldrama
When Gabriel said the name, his voice quivered, and even his heartbeat
quickened.
He felt joyful and even relieved.
He didn't have time to think about what the news about Rose's "death" was all
about or what it meant. All he knew for sure was that he had hoped Rose was alive and well.
How wonderful! She was alive!
"Mr. Yones..." Olivia's gaze remained cautious.
Rose's secret has been discovered, and she couldn't allow it to spread and
jeopardize tonight's plans.
Gabriel suddenly snapped back to reality after hearing Olivia call out to him.
What do you think?
