Honey, You're a Billionaire by Chandler Solar

Chapter 489 Not on Purpose

Bella's shout startled everyone in the manor. Lizzle and Anastasia snapped out of their shock, exchanged a glance, and quickly ran up the stairs.

The scene before them was shocking. Yara was lying on the floor.

She had mentally prepared for this and had acted out the scene countless times, so she knew how to fall just right to make it look serious without causing real harm, although there was still a faint pain in her abdomen. However, the urgent situation left her no time to care about that. Yara looked at Rose still standing on the stairs.

A faint trace of smugness flashed in her eyes before she accused in a pitiful voice, "Ms. Shaffer, why... why did you push me?"

Why did she push Yara? Rose snapped back to reality, taking in the scene before her.

Every moment flashed through her mind. She was certain she hadn't pushed Yara, and Yara had fallen on her own. Yet, Yara was accusing her of having pushed her?

Rose was momentarily dazed but quickly understood Yara's intentions. Soon, a crowd gathered at the stairway.

Jonathan, who had just taken an important call, returned to the scene. He immediately rushed up the stairs.

Yara saw his figure and pitifully called out, "Mr. Finch."

She expected at least some sympathy from him, but the next moment, Jonathan walked past her without even a glance.

He rushed to Rose and grabbed her wrist to pull her back a few steps as if afraid she might fall too.

"Are you okay?" His eyes were filled with concern only for Rose.

Yara felt a surge of frustration. She was the one who had fallen, not Rose. Shouldn't Jonathan be concerned about her?
