Chapter 206 He Brought It Upon Himself

"Go easy on him?" Rose snorted. "Sorry, I'm not a saint.

Kelly was the saint, not her!

Jonathan let out a low chuckle before saying darkly, "He brought it upon himself to have the nerve to harm you!"

Rose was startled. As she stared at the silhouette behind the partition, she got the strange feeling that she was someone important to him.

But, he only helped her deal with the Lanes because of her husband...

Rose was still thinking when the voice behind the partition continued, "Nixon has been admitted to at psychiatric facility. The Lanes company shares have taken a nosedive. They can't hold out much longer. The Lanes' assets will be put on auction to pay off their bank loans.

“Once the Lane family has gone bankrupt, they won't try to mess with you anymore."

Rose was still fixated on the first part of Jonathan's sentence.

"Hang on. Has Nixon gone mad?"

Jonathan did not reply. Still, Rose got the picture. As long as Nixon had been institutionalized, it did not matter whether he was insane or not. It would not make a difference.

Recalling the things Nixon had done, Rose thought he deserved it. Now that Nixon had ended up like this. Kelly's hopes and dreams were probably dashed.

After saying goodbye to Jonathan, Rose headed toward the elevator to leave. By coincidence, she glanced at the meeting room and saw a familiar figure...

"Finley?" Rose exclaimed in startlement.

Who else could that tall and burly figure be, if not Finley? She saw him jogging toward the meeting room. When Finley heard a voice calling out to him, he immediately came to a halt. He turned around, and upon seeing Rose, his mind went blank. She had discovered him. What should he

do?

"Ahem..."

Inside the meeting room, a certain someone cleared his throat as if to warn Finley, Rose was just about to step into the elevator just now, but now that she was certain it was Finley, she turned back. She was drawing near... Finley felt like he had a bomb tied to his chest. If he exposed Jonathan's identity. it would spell doom for him.

What should he do? He desperately wanted someone to come along and save him. As Rose continued to approach, Finley hastily walked over to her.
