Chapter 645 The Unexpected Lizzie

Rose rarely called Jonathan, but whenever she did, he would pick up almost immediately. It seemed like Jonathan was always very enthusiastic toward her.

But tonight, the phone rang for a long time with no one answering.

When she made the second call, and the same thing happened again, Rose felt a twinge of unease. After making several more calls, there was still no answer.

Rose's sense of unease was growing stronger. She was just about to call Leonard and Finley when Ezra called her.

"Hello, Ezra? Where's Jonathan?" As soon as the call connected, Rose immediately asked that question. Her voice was tinged with nervousness and a slight tremble.

On the other end of the phone, Ezra had informed Rose that Jonathan was "busy" and couldn't make it tonight. However, when Rose asked him about it, Ezra suddenly felt inexplicably guilty.

It was precisely due to this moment of guilt and hesitation that Rose was able to sense something was off, even over the phone.

Before Ezra could speak, Rose asked another question, "What's happened with Jonathan?"

She held tightly onto her phone, but what she heard was Ezra's deliberately casual laughter. "Rose, what could happen to my brother? Something came up at the company unexpectedly, so he probably won't be able to come home tonight to see you."

But Rose didn't believe him. "He's not picking up his phone," she said.

Ezra felt at a loss for words. When he thought about what had happened just now, Ezra tugged at the corner of his mouth and quickly came up with an excuse. "He just boarded the plane, so-"

Rose made up her mind before Ezra finished speaking, interrupting him, "Ezra, you're lying to me."

Ezra felt a bit at a loss on the other end of the phone.

"Ezra, as your 'sister-in-law', it means we're family. No matter what happens with Jonathan, you can't keep it from me. Whatever he goes through, I should know about it. I worry about him. I..."

At that moment, Rose realized that her feelings for Jonathan were much more than just missing him. Her whole heart had probably long been captured by him.

"If you don't tell me, I'll go find him myself. Is he at Finch Manor? Or at one of Finch Group's hospitals?"

Rose was unsure of Jonathan's whereabouts the past few days.

But she had a vague idea that Jonathan might have "checked into a hospital" in some way to throw some people off and make them believe he wasn't a threat, and they would feel at ease.

On the other end of the phone, Ezra finally couldn't keep it a secret any longer. "Rose, something has happened to Jonathan."

"Something happened to Jonathan..." Rose couldn't stop thinking about that

sentence.

She didn't even have time to ask Ezra what exactly had happened to Jonathan before she rushed toward the door in a panic. She was in such a hurry that she didn't even realize her shoe had come off while running.
