Honey, You're a Billionaire? novel Chapter 426

"What do you mean by 'big trouble'?" Jack sounded unfazed, barely glancing at the window's direction.

Bella's expression turned grim. "You killed someone. How is that not big?"

He chuckled over the phone, sounding even more ruthless. "And? It's not like this is the first time this has happened. Didn't we suppress it effortlessly last time? Just have it handled, Mom!" Then, he ended the call.

Bella was full of complaints. Just because she had resolved such an issue before didn't mean there wouldn't be any mishaps this time.

On top of that, she had been hiding her son's mistakes from Yosef all this time. If he found out about that, he might favor his secret, illegitimate son instead!

That bastard child… She inhaled deeply. For now, she had no plans of disclosing the existence of that illegitimate son to Yosef.

She scrolled to the phone number from earlier and sent a text.

"I'll handle the matter this time, but you cannot do this again. Focus more on your work and achieve something. Only through that can you become your dad's greatest aid!"

As long as Yara was married to Jonathan, and Jack behaved himself, Yosef would continue to have Jack as his "only" son!

At the club, a loud bang crashed through the pulsing music and drew everyone's attention. When they arrived at the scene, they saw a person lying on the ground. Someone recognized the body.

"It's Yvonne! It's her! What happened to her?"

"I think she fell from above. Is she dead?"

Despite being members of the dance troupe, they dared not go near her and only surrounded her with pitiful looks.

"It looks like she's dead already. Should we still call 911?"

"What a pity. She's the principal dancer. If she's dead, does that mean someone else will replace her?"

Riding on her shared bike, Rose finally arrived, breathless. Before she started her search, her attention was pulled toward a moving crowd. Upon seeing that, she couldn't help but feel unsettled and followed them.

The crowd's murmurs and discussions traveled to her ears, as though confirming with every word that the person inside was Yvonne.

At that moment, she could feel her legs weaken, but that didn't last long as she found her bearings the next second.

"Step aside! All of you!"

Rose squeezed through the crowd and finally arrived before a figure on the ground. It felt like her world had crumbled when she confirmed it was Yvonne! Her eyes were shut, and her gown was torn and stained with blood.

"Yvonne…" Rose dropped to her side. Amid the panic, she could feel Yvonne's breathing, instantly pulling her out of dread.

"She's alive! She isn't dead yet! Someone please call the ambulance…" Rose's phone had died, so she continued begging the bystanders.

"Please, I'm begging you. Call the ambulance. Please…" Rose was about to cry.

"Yes. I'll call the ambulance…"

One of the bystanders finally came to their senses. They fished their phone out to dial 911, but their device was soon snatched and destroyed by a brawny man before the call was made.

"What are you…" They wanted to resist but were tamed by the bodyguard's fierceness.

Then, the bodyguards dispersed the crowd. "Apologies to our guest. As there has been an accident, our club won't be operating for the rest of the night.

"Please evacuate from the scene. The Finch Group will handle this matter. Let us remind you not to spread unnecessary rumors to the public!"

She wanted to break free, but her limbs were restrained. Despite her several attempts, they only subdued her even more. They were clearly afraid to let loose of her.

At last, she begged, "Please just leave her alone! Don't touch her!"

The bodyguard looked at Rose with a hint of emotion. Soon, he resumed to his normal demeanor. That was because he would face serious consequences if he didn't follow Jack's instructions.

Thus, he had to make sure Yvonne was dead. Even if she wasn't, he had to make it happen. He crouched down and extended his finger near her nose…

Gritting her teeth, Rose used up her remaining stamina and broke free one of her hands. Then, with all her might, she lunged at the man beside Yvonne and bit into his hand.

"Ah…" the bodyguard screamed in pain and punted Rose away.

When Miles arrived, he witnessed that scene.

"Rosie…"

He strode forward, intending to catch her, but he was too late.

Her back crashed against the ground, sending pain coursing her body. Then, she looked at the face above her and pleaded, "Miles, please save Yvonne. Don't let them hurt her…"

When Miles looked over, he saw the unconscious Yvonne lying on the ground, while the bodyguard was seemingly examining if she was still alive.

Instantly, he dashed forward and kicked off the bodyguard. With a sharp gaze, he positioned himself in front of Yvonne.

The bodyguard recognized Miles. "Mr. Miles…"

Without letting him finish, the usually gentle Miles reprimanded, "Get your hands off my people! Scram!"
