Chapter 429 Jonathan Must Take Accountability

Meanwhile, Jonathan sensed a raging noise in his ears. The next moment, a fistful punch landed on his face. He couldn't help but finally wake up.

When he opened his eyes, he examined his surroundings and saw a large crowd of people with either anger or disappointment on their faces. As the memories from last night resurfaced, he knew he had fallen into a schemeful trap. "Don't hit him, Paxie!" exclaimed Yara.

Even at that moment, she protected Jonathan. He looked at the woman beside him and frowned at the sight of her bruised body.

"Yara, why are you still defending him after what he's done?" The son of the family, Paxton Maize, pretended to hit Jonathan again, but his father's roar halted him. "Enough!" Yara's father, Rupert Maize, looked solemn. But underneath the facade, he was secretly suppressing his fear.

Being in the business world, he was aware of Jonathan's tactics. Initially, he objected to Yara's idea of scheming Jonathan. After all, if the latter found out the truth, the consequences would be unbearable for the entire Maize family. However, Bella and Cindy both persuaded him to take the risk. After some contemplation, he decided to bet on it. If the outcome of the bet was favorable, he would become the father-in-law of Finch Group's ruler! Rupert interrogated Jonathan, "What's going on here?"

Jonathan was extremely irritated by the event before him. His icy gaze landed on Yara, who had used Rose's earring to lure him over last night.

"Where is she?" He ignored Rupert's question.

Yara's eyes flickered, her heart growing increasingly envious toward Rose. Even under such circumstances, all Jonathan could think about was Rose! She shrunk a little.

"Who are you talking about? Did you walk into my room by accident after getting drunk and mistaking me for someone else?"

Jonathan was furious by her accusation. What did she mean by "mistaking her for someone else"? Knowing that he wouldn't get an answer from her, he became fierce.
