Honey, You're a Billionaire?

"Something major happened in recent days," Anastasia said.

Anastasia's tone made Kelly instinctively feel that the so-called big news she was talking about was definitely not something she wanted to hear.

Kelly's eyes showed a hint of fear-she wanted to avoid learning about this so- called big news.

Unfortunately, she was at another's mercy, like a fish on the chopping block.

Anastasia aimed to torment her not just physically but also mentally, making her feel like living was worse than dying.

"No-"

As soon as Kelly began to speak, Anastasia interrupted her potential refusal by saying, "Rose is pregnant."

Kelly's expression clearly showed she was taken aback for a moment.

She didn't want to listen, but each word in that sentence pierced her eardrums like needles. It seeped into her skin like poison and echoed persistently in her mind.

Rose was pregnant. She was pregnant with Jonathan's child!

In her mind, these words played out a scene like grass in spring, sprouting and growing rapidly.

As she imagined Rose holding a child and cuddling with Jonathan, it felt as if a knife was cutting through her heart with each scene of happiness.

Kelly spoke with a menacing tone. "How could this happen?"

How could it turn out like this?

Anastasia seemed to catch on to something and sneered, "Are you still pining over Jonathan? No... You're not!"

She suddenly had an enlightening moment. The thought in her mind began as a guess and gradually turned into certainty.

Anastasia stared at Kelly. Despite the dim light, her eyes seemed to see right through her. After a while, Anastasia suddenly laughed and said, "Jonathan isn't the one you care about!"

She was more certain than before.

She seemed to have completely figured out Kelly. "You care about Rose. You've always been comparing yourself to her. Whatever she has, you want to have too! You're simply jealous of her." noveldrama

Kelly was caught in the moment just as she was about to deny it.

But once Anastasia discovered her vulnerability, she wouldn't stop until she took full advantage of it.

"You envy Rose. You think you can take everything from her, that you can become her. But sadly, in everyone's eyes, you're just a clown. You're not even worth a strand of her hair.

"She is the true heiress of the Young family, the only daughter of Elijah from Lerain Group, and also Jonathan's wife. Her future is incredibly bright and celebrated, while you..."

Kelly let out a deranged shout, interrupting what Anastasia was saying.

The more she acted this way, the more relieved Anastasia felt.

She had guessed correctly. She also knew better how to thoroughly psychologically torment Kelly.

Rose was Kelly's inner demon.

"Ha!" Anastasia chuckled as she looked down at Kelly with a disdainful and contemptuous expression. "You... are like the dirt in a muddy path. Do you want to see what you look like?"

As soon as Anastasia finished speaking, a projection appeared on the wall in front of them.

The projection showed her at that moment, chained and forced to kneel on the ground like an animal.

On the screen, she could see that her hair was disheveled, her clothing barely covered her, and her body was covered in bruises. The scène of her total distress left Kelly momentarily frozen.

Was that... her? No, it wasn't...

Kelly avoided eye contact, deliberately looking away to avoid seeing the person on the screen.

"That's not me. I'm not like that. I'm not the dirt in a muddy path. I'm not... I am..."

She wasn't dirt. Who was she? She was...

In her mind, Rose's image appeared. She suddenly lifted her gaze, looked at the person in the picture, and laughed.
