Chapter 456 Rose Was There That Night

"Your uncle only found out that Yvonne is at the Young family hospital, but Miles has kept all other details under wraps," Bella said, a hint of frustration in her voice.

She couldn't resist scolding Jack. "Of all the people you could've gotten involved with, you chose her! I told you to handle it discreetly, but you just had to..." The situation exasperated her. "Also, why would Jonathan be interested in Yvonne? As far as I know, there's no connection between them," Bella said, bewildered.

After a moment of hesitation, Jack decided to come clean. "Yvonne and Rose are best friends. Rose was also there that night."

"Rose?" Bella echoed, recognizing the name immediately. "That explains why Jonathan is investigating! It must be because of Rose!"

A hint of unease crept into her voice as she gave Jack strict instructions. "You need to lay low, Jack. This isn't something you can brush off.

"I'm booking you a flight out of the country. You need to leave and stay out of sight. We'll use the excuse that you're handling business abroad."

Bella's urgency was palpable as she spoke. Before hanging up, she reiterated, "Stay put until you hear from me. You need to be out of Regalia by tonight or tomorrow morning at the latest." Jack stared at his phone, deep in thought. Suddenly, the door behind him opened, and his companion asked impatiently, "How long until the show starts, Mr. Finch?"

The others in the room were eager with anticipation.

Just then, a woman entered and approached them. "It's time," she announced. Jack raised an eyebrow and gestured toward the others in the room. "Shall we... take our seats then?" The crowd buzzed with excitement, their enthusiasm overshadowing the fine, unfinished drinks in their hands.

They promptly exited the room, following the guidance of the woman who had just arrived, eager to take their seats and experience the upcoming event.
