Honey, You're a Billionaire? novel Chapter 381

"Grandpa put himself in danger for Rose, so you better not make things worse for her!" Anastasia made it sound like a warning, but the rest quickly caught the hint.

"Ms. Anastasia, are you saying Mr. Young Senior passed away because of her?"

"What exactly happened? Can we interpret that as her causing Mr. Young Senior's death?"

The journalists were relentless, shooting out questions harder than before.

That was precisely what Anastasia wanted. Although she successfully threw Rose under the bus, she kept it as subtle as possible.

Facing the reporters, Anastasia quickly explained, "That's not true. You're speculating." She looked protective of Rose by "defending" her.

After noticing the awry in her statement, they couldn't possibly just accept her half-hearted explanation. On top of that, the protagonist was right before them. They needed to get this scoop!

They refocused their attention on Rose, ignoring Anastasia. "If Mr. Young Senior died because of you, are you directly responsible for his death then?" They were harsh.

The camera flashes were blinding Rose. As she recalled how Oliver protected her, there was a flicker in her eyes. The journalist perceptively caught on to that detail as if it were something major.

"Are you feeling remorseful? Do you regret it?"

"Did you kill Mr. Young Senior for his inheritance?"

Their questions became more intense.

Rose's eyes trembled. It was undeniable that Oliver got hurt because of her. Of course, she was remorseful and regretted letting that happen, but she had never eyed his inheritance.

Looking at the crowd of journalists, Rose understood they needed a statement from her before they let her off. She instinctively tightened her grip on the urn as she faced their anticipating gazes and flashing lights.

Then, she enunciated, "I will not claim any—"

"Rose!" Miles interrupted her upon knowing her intention.

All of the Young family's resources rightfully belonged to Rose, but that was something non-disclosable to the public.

Miles held Rose's shoulders and shielded her with his arm. Despite being someone who had always politely engaged with the media, he was cold and harsh this time.

"This is the Youngs' business. Please await our official response. If any baseless speculations persist, we will spare no effort in taking legal action!"

It was a warning that the journalists could not ignore. They even felt terrified by his demeanor.

Before they could pry more, Miles had walked Rose toward the door with his arm around her. He whispered to her, saying, "Ignore what they say. You have more right to inherit the Youngs' property than anyone." He vowed to make that happen because that was Oliver's wish.

Rose, on the other hand, did not overthink his words. She didn't care about what others insinuated either.

At that point, all she cared about was Oliver's funeral. After the ceremony, she would leave Regalia and all the other speculations behind.
