Honey, You're a Billionaire? novel Chapter 520

Since Jonathan had spent 50 million dollars on the ring, it naturally belonged to him!

He raised his brows at that answer. Then, he glanced at the container filled with molten lava. "Since it belongs to me, nobody can tell me what I can or can't do with it, right?"

Of course, he meant Anastasia, who felt embarrassed by his words. However, things only got worse for her from then on. What could she do when Jonathan could bear destroying a red diamond ring? She had no solutions against him.

Anastasia's hand remained frozen in the air, a pleading look evident on her face. Yet, Jonathan spared no glances at her before tossing the ring into the container, causing sparks to fly.

It was only then the audience understood something. "That's… molten lava…"

"The high temperature of molten lava is enough to melt diamonds. Did Mr. Finch just…" Destroy the diamond ring!

"But why?"

Suddenly, everyone looked at the two figures on stage. By then, they had detached from their theories and slowly understood Jonathan wouldn't have destroyed it if he cared about it. So, it could only mean…

He hated that ring and would spend 50 million dollars to obliterate it if it meant erasing it from existence!

When they recalled Jonathan's confession earlier, they were confident he was expressing his love for that designer. Why would he…

"I think everyone here misunderstood something. Like I said, this ring is an extra one. The one I made according to the blueprint is with the designer.

"It's unique, and there shouldn't be another similar one," Jonathan explained calmly. His voice mixed with the lava-melting sound created an eerie atmosphere.

Jonathan had called them out for their false assumptions. Since the one he melted was the extra one, it meant…

"The designer wasn't Ms. Young!" a person voiced out the crowd's realization. They looked in unison at Anastasia with strange looks and realized they had been misled and misunderstood the situation.

Intending to protect her dignity, Anastasia quickly clarified, "Uh, I saw the design blueprint at the time and really liked it. That's why I made one myself. I was aware that the copyright for that design belongs to Young's House of Jewels. I just liked it too much."

Was that why she replicated the ring? Because she liked it too much?

Below the stage, Miles and Clover paid no heed to her words. Regardless of her intention when making the ring, it was evident she wanted to mislead everyone when auctioning the ring. Of course, she wouldn't have anticipated Jonathan to melt a ring he had spent 50 million dollars on!

Clover glanced at Jonathan onstage, scoffing. "That's much better."

Not only did Jonathan destroy the ring, but he also expected Anastasia to misdirect the crowd. However, he crossed the line at the possibility of Rose believing her lies. Hence, he had to clarify.

"I did not grow up with Ms. Young, let alone was her childhood sweetheart. We don't interact much generally, and we definitely don't have any romantic entanglements.

Even if she had to publicize her relationship with Jonathan one day, she needed to have enough confidence and composure to handle any external scrutiny.

What Miles had been doing was to aid her in that aspect. However, it wasn't the right time to expose her yet.

He frowned and vowed to accelerate his plan. After making the decision, he looked at Jonathan onstage and was ready to stop him at any moment.

Clover carried the same sentiment and concern as Miles. While preparing to interrupt Jonathan, he was also considering the possibility of something else…

"Well… She's here today!" Jonathan locked his gaze in a specific direction. His gaze was passionate, prompting Rose to gulp her saliva nervously.

The crowd quickly followed his line of sight but missed her when he averted his gaze. As such, they hoped he would announce the mysterious woman who had captured his heart. However…

Jonathan smiled faintly. "But she prefers to keep a low profile. If I expose her to you guys, she might actually get mad at me. So, please spare me from upsetting her."

The formidable Mr. Finch, known for his dominance in the business world, now seemed like a henpecked husband. The crowd was startled and gradually felt the disappointment, while Rose, Miles, and Clover were relieved.

"That's what I thought!" Clover scoffed. Since Jonathan had resolved the "crisis", he could now fully consider his new idea. Amid his thoughts, he suddenly asked Emily a question.
