Chapter 369 Ganged Up Against Her

Did Oliver just say there was no need to amend the will? Kelly was overjoyed and relieved to hear that. As expected, Oliver would tolerate her behavior when he was reminded of her status as Henrietta's

daughter.

Oliver might have been alive, but at the end of the day, everyone had clearly heard the will being read out just now. Oliver had left all the family assets to Kelly. Kelly thought that she'd be the sole heiress of the Young family sooner or later, even if it was not today.

She treated the people around her with disdain. However, thinking of the video just now, she cast a glance at Rose, who was standing beside Oliver.

At that moment, she had no time to process what happened with the video. Her priority was to force Oliver to deny that she was the woman in the video. No matter what, she wanted to frame Rose. With that in mind, she frowned and argued, "I do not care for materialistic wealth, but I'm sure Mom would feel upset if she knew that my name was dragged through the mud because of that vulgar video." Kelly tried to use the mention of Henrietta to win Oliver over and evoke his protectiveness of her. She thought that she could manipulate Oliver by wielding Henrietta's name.

To her disappointment, Oliver did not chastise those whom she accused of slandering her. The grim look in his eyes made her shiver. "Grandpa?"

Soon, he wiped off his grim expression and put on an ingenuine smile. He grappled with feelings of guilt for failing to discern Henrietta's real daughter after all this time.

He instinctively reached out for Rose's hand, to everyone's shock. Only Jonathan looked unperturbed. Rose felt the warmth from his palm. Seeing the exhaustion on his face, she wanted to advise him to rest. Oliver's interaction shocked Kelly. Her mind raced. "Shouldn't he be holding them accountable for the video incident? Why is he holding Rose's hand? His eyes are full of affection for her..."

Kelly had the urge to grab Oliver's hand. However, she maintained her composure and tried to attract Oliver's attention. "Grandpa, I dreamed of Mom last night="

Kelly tried to reuse her old tricks, but she was interrupted by Jonathan's snicker. She looked back at him and accidentally met his scornful expression.

Feeling sheepish, she reflexively avoided his gaze. She bit her lips and, in an attempt to protect her dignity, snapped, "What are you laughing at?" Her question rang hollow. Jonathan did not bother to answer. At that moment, Jonathan's phone rang. When he saw the incoming call from Finley, he knew that Finley had successfully carried out the task he entrusted to him.
