Chapter 568 He Is Leaving

Harriette's eyes radiated warmth and kindness, yet her words came across as ironic to Miles.

"Help her? How exactly will she help?" he wondered skeptically. If it weren't for Jonathan's plan, he would never allow this imposter Harriette near Rose. However, some concessions had to be made for the scheme's success. Not wanting Rose to endure more insincerity, Miles shifted the conversation. "Rosie, now that you've officially taken over Young Group, my task is complete."

Rose glanced at Miles, noticing a hint of relief in his expression as if a heavy burden had been lifted. The notion of a burden caught her attention.

"Miles, I'm not adept at managing a company, let alone one as vast as Young Group. I accept Grandpa's will, but I'd prefer a nominal role. It's better if you continue to make decisions for the company," she confessed earnestly. This was her honest sentiment. Even after inheriting Young Group, she didn't see it as solely hers.

Miles' smile was tinged with weariness as he responded, "Rosie, I'm tired."

Despite his gentle expression, his exhaustion was evident. It finally dawned on Rose how tirelessly he had worked to ensure that Young Group was handed over to her completely. "Miles..." she began, her voice echoing with guilt and worry.

Feigning concern, Harriette joined in. "Miles does look tired. Rosie, stop making things harder for him. Let him rest for a while. After all, you still have us to help during this period."

Of course, by "us", Harriette meant herself, although she refrained from being too explicit. Just as she hoped, Miles seamlessly followed up with, "Etta will also assist you."

This was precisely what she wanted to hear. "I'll do everything in my power to help, Rosie. After all, Grandpa took me in all those years ago, and I haven't been able to repay his kindness. Assisting you would be my way of honoring him."

Her words rang earnestly and sincerely, yet Rose felt an inexplicable sense of unease. There was something oddly familiar about it, but she couldn't quite put her finger on what it was.

Ultimately, Miles declared his intention to take a break, handing over all major and minor decisions of Young Group to Rose.

Simultaneously, he also granted Harriette a title second only to Rose's, giving her a degree of power that made her momentarily lose herself in the illusion of authority.

She thought that perhaps maintaining this status quo wouldn't be terrible. However, upon recalling Lizzie's instructions and her true identity, Harriette quickly snapped out of her reverie. "Madam wanted Rose dead, and as for me..." her thoughts trailed off.
