Honey, You're a Billionaire? novel Chapter 60

Chapter 60 It Hurts Too Much 

Kelly was panicking Inside under Miles‘ gaze. All of a sudden, a thought came to mind: if she admitted that she was Ms. Flora, she’d win this competition for sure! 

Kelly couldn’t help but feel delighted, knowing that Jonathan was watching her right now from 

somewhere behind the scenes. 

She said humbly, “Yes. I didn’t want to reveal my identity at first, but I forgot to leave out the signature in my sketch this time. By the time I thought about changing it, it was too late, so 

Kelly knew her lie wouldn’t stand up to question one day, but by that time she would’ve already won Jonathan’s heart over. So, she had nothing to fear! 

To her surprise, when she finished speaking, Rose chuckled lightly beside her. Kelly was about to ask her why she was laughing when Miles laughed as well. It was dripping in sarcasm and disdain. 

“Did you know, I happened to meet Ms. Flora in person a couple of days ago, right here in Aquastead? You’re not who I met up with at all,” Miles exclaimed. 

The crowd’s attitude immediately changed from awe to one of astonishment and speculation. 

Kelly’s heart lurched once again, though she kept her act up. 

“Are you sure you didn’t make a mistake, Mr. Young? Or were you scammed? After all, I’ve never revealed. 

my identity to anyone.” 

“Make a mistake? You’re saying K&K’s chief brand officer would make such a mistake as well?” Miles glanced at Evan. 

Rose had never wanted to reveal her identity as Ms. Flora, but if she didn’t know, she just might end up being labeled as a copycat and thief in the jewelry design world, ending her career. 

Evan couldn’t let that happen! 

He took out his phone and tapped the screen. The screen onstage then depicted several design sketches. 

The crowd instantly recognized them as the sketches for Ms. Flora’s creations ‘Crimson Temptress‘ and Moonlight Angel‘, 

“These are some of the sketches for Ms. Flora’s creations. There is no other copy of them,” Evan announced, “Now please turn your attention to the flame symbol by the bottom corner of the drawing.” 

The audience gazed at the little symbol of a flame beside the letter F on the sketches. They instantly Identified it to be the same as the one on Kelly’s and Rose’s sketches! 

“They look the same, right down to those two points at the top of the flame. You can see they’re from the 

same person.” 

“Yeah. No wonder Ms. Kelly said she was Ms. Flora.” 

“Did 

you forget that Ms. Rose’s design had the same flame symbol?” 

“I thought Kelly said Rose stole her design to participate in this competition?” 

“But Mr. Young clearly said Ms. Flora wasn’t Ms. Kelly

“Who is Ms. Flora’s then?” 

+15 BONUS 

Everyone looked at Evan. Surely he must know who Ms. Flora’s true identity is, given his position. Evan continued gazing at Rose. 

“My apologies for not keeping your secret, miss.” 

His meaning was clear as day. The audience took a couple of seconds for the dots to connect. 

“Rose Shaffer is Ms. Flora!” 

Miles beamed warmly at Rose as well. 

“I met with you last time to invite you to become a guest judge for our event today. Now I understand why you turned down our offer at the time. It would’ve been gravely inappropriate if you were to judge now that you’re a participant here.” 

His words caused another wave of conversation amongst the crowd. Ms. Flora had more than enough qualifications to judge the competition today. Their gazes filled with admiration as they looked at Rose. 

Rose nodded at both Miles and Evan, thanking them for their assistance. Meanwhile, the morphine in her system seemed to have lessened some. 

Her wounds were now hurting painfully. She had to hurry up and retrieve what was hers! Jonathan noticed how she was suppressing her pain from where he was backstage. 

He immediately instructed the host onstage, “Hurry up and clarify who the symbols and creations belong to, now!”
