Honey, You're a Billionaire? novel Chapter 371

Why would Rose need to be jealous of Kelly? Kelly was stunned. She thought that Oliver was angry at her because she knew about her schemes to kill him. She tried to get on his good side. "Grandpa…"

But in the next instant, Oliver interrupted her. His face was grim. "Ms. Shaffer, I am not your grandfather."

Kelly's expression froze. She said innocently, "Grandpa, why did you say that? What nonsense did you hear from someone who's trying to drive us apart?"

"What do you think I heard? That you wanted to hire someone to murder me?" Oliver sneered.

Even though Kelly had decided to deny everything and insist that Rose was framing her, for a moment, she still couldn't hide her guilt. But she had to continue the act.

"Grandpa, what are you… saying? Hire someone to murder you? How could I do something like that?"

Kelly looked genuinely perplexed, as if she truly didn't understand what Oliver was implying. Suddenly, as if greatly wounded by Oliver's words, she chuckled self-mockingly.

"Someone tried to accuse me of wanting to harm Grandpa? Grandpa, do you actually believe that? How could you? Who came up with such a trick?

"Grandpa, no matter what others say, you have to use your own judgment. After all this time together, Grandpa, don't you know what kind of person I am? Grandpa, how could you doubt me…" Her innocent and vulnerable act managed to evoke pity from those around her.

Oliver watched her closely. Even though he saw through many people, he was still deceived by her appearance and thought that she was genuinely pure and kind. Little did he know that everything was a facade.

When he thought about how Rose had suffered because of this, Oliver felt even more guilty. Oliver clenched his fist, wishing to expose Kelly. "The witnesses are all here. What else do you have to say?"

Kelly clenched her teeth. This moment had finally arrived. At a critical moment like this, she absolutely could not admit to anything.

"Witnesses? What witnesses? Do you mean him? I don't even know him!" Kelly said firmly, trying not to associate herself with him.

When she sent this man to kidnap Oliver, only the two of them were present. Even if he claimed she orchestrated everything, there was no solid evidence. When Kelly thought of that, she felt even more triumphant.

Kelly looked at Oliver sincerely. "Don't be deceived, Grandpa. Someone is trying to drive a wedge between us, deliberately setting up this play. If you believe it, you're falling into someone else's trap."

Kelly glanced at Rose. She nearly uttered her name. As soon as she finished speaking, someone started clapping. The eerie sound of clapping echoed across the silent room.

Kelly looked toward the source and met Jonathan's gaze. Kelly couldn't help but shudder when she saw the disdain in his eyes. It was as if there was nothing she could hide from him.

Kelly nervously clenched her fists. Before she could say anything, Jonathan gave Finley a signal. And soon, a large television screen was brought into the room.

Kelly was puzzled, not having any idea what he was about to do. Everyone stared at the dark screen. Suddenly, the screen lit up.

The screen showed Oliver in a wheelchair talking to Rose on a bridge. It was very distant, so there wasn't any sound. But one could see that they were having a pleasant conversation.

Everyone stared at Oliver on the screen, who rolled down the steps of the bridge. It then cut to him lying unconscious on the ground with blood dripping from his head.

Rose clenched her fists tightly. Even though it wasn't her first time seeing the footage, she still couldn't suppress the pain in her heart.

"How could you, Kelly?" Rose finally asked. That's right. How could she be so cruel?

Anastasia, who had barely recovered from the shock of the video, stared at Kelly. "No wonder you were so anxious just now. It turns out... that you were the one who pushed Grandpa!" She had underestimated Kelly.

Although Anastasia had considered various ideas to seize the wealth of the Young family for over more than 20 years, she had never thought of harming Oliver. Oliver may have been old, but he was still someone Anastasia respected greatly.

Kelly, on the other hand… Anastasia finally realized the reason why they had orchestrated Oliver's death.

How could she have done something like that? Even if she were the "true heiress" of the Young family, it would not shield her from her crimes.

Anastasia felt satisfied. She naturally couldn't pass the opportunity to get back at Kelly.

Anastasia noticed Kelly's shifting eyes. She was likely planning her defense. Anastasia stepped forward without hesitation. Filled with overwhelming hatred, she delivered a hard slap to Kelly's face without mercy.

"Ow!"
