Chapter 399 Deliberately Troubling Rose


Yara stood by Rose's seat with her arms crossed and her eyebrows raised provocatively even more pronounced than before. "Let's switch here. This spot is better."

If Rose couldn't see Yara's intentions now, she was truly naive. In fact, Rose had sensed her ill intentions from the first word Yara spoke. However, she didn't want to stir up trouble. Giving way once was enough, but it didn't mean Rose would tolerate being bullied. This time, Rose decided not to yield.

She looked up and met Yara's gaze squarely. "Ms. Maize may not be eyeing the seat I'm in, but something else."

Her hostility wasn't baseless. And the reason... Rose vividly remembered Yara as the woman leaning on Jonathan outside the Young Estate. Indeed, it was... trouble.

Jonathan's face alone was enough to catch the attention of the woman. Moreover, now that he also held the position of the Finch Group's ruler, there would likely be more flatterers around him.

Rose didn't like entanglements, nor did she want to get herself involved in these messy affairs. She didn't like either being seen as a rival or wasting her energy unnecessarily. So...

Rose smirked slightly. She could see Yara's discomfort at being read so accurately.

Before Yara could respond, Rose firmly asserted her position. She said, "Ms. Maize, go find someone who can give you whatever you want. As for me... my home is in Aquastead, and I'll come and go as I please. It's none of your concern." Yara's expression stiffened. "You... you really intend to go back to Aquastead?"

She clearly doubted it. Over these few days, she had someone investigate and found out that the woman she saw outside the Young Estate was indeed Rose.

Rose was acknowledged as Oliver's adopted granddaughter. Even with the Young family's connections, as long as she was not the true heiress of the Young family, she couldn't compare to Yara. Yara was a true heiress of the Maize family. But considering that day outside the Young Estate, it seemed that Jonathan did show some interest in her. Yara believed Julia's revelation.

Today, she happened to encounter Rose, so she naturally wanted to teach her a lesson. But unexpectedly... Rose saw through her intentions and straightforwardly mentioned leaving Regalia.

Yara stared at Rose. She tried to discern the truth behind her words.

"Why would I lie?" Rose shrugged nonchalantly.

"Are you willing?" Yara persisted. She was still skeptical.

Rose raised an eyebrow. She was confused by Yara's words. "Willing for what?"
