Honey, You're a Billionaire? novel Chapter 453

"Jon, no enmity lasts between father and son. You've misunderstood him!" Lizzie didn't answer directly.

Her ambiguous reply was meant to make everyone believe that Jonathan was the main cause of Cyrus' current condition.

Jonathan was all too clear with the trick. He didn't even bother to glance at Lizzie, and nor did he want to waste time dealing with her. He reached forward and took Rose's hand.

"Let's go." His voice was warm, unlike the cold indifference he had shown Lizzie. It surprised everyone present.

Jonathan was known for his cold demeanor in the Finch family and rarely showed any warmth or even a smile.

There was a hint of gentleness in his voice just now, but the Jonathan they knew had nothing associated with the word "gentleness".

The people present couldn't help but look at Jonathan and Rose beside him again. They had just been astonished at Rose's act of protecting Jonathan, but upon closer examination, they noticed the unusual way Jonathan looked at her.

Rose was tall and had striking features. Though she was plainly dressed, she made an unexpectedly perfect match with Jonathan when standing next to him.

Hand in hand, the two walked past the kneeling Lizzie. Tears and grievances marked Lizzie's face, but a shadow of gloom flickered across it. How could she let them leave just like that?

"Ms. Shaffer…" Lizzie suddenly called out.

Jonathan and Rose were just at the door when the voice from behind made Rose pause slightly.

She looked up when feeling Jonathan's grip tighten a bit, and her heart skipped a beat at the sight of his handsome profile. However, Jonathan showed no intention to stop, and Rose followed him.

"Ms. Shaffer…" Lizzie didn't expect Rose to ignore her.

Turning back, she raised her voice and called out again, but there was still no response. Jonathan and Rose were walking further away.

The hatred in Lizzie's heart nearly overshadowed her feigned "grievance". She collapsed in a kneeling position when realizing everything had just been in vain. The Finches watched her.

"How could Jon do that? Even after Lizzie knelt to beg him, he still…" Bella's words were laden with reproach, but her gaze toward the kneeling Lizzie was dull of disdain.

She thought Lizzie would make a powerful move to bring Jonathan down, but Lizzie had him leave just like that.

"Lizzie, get up. We don't know how Cyrus is doing." There was a hint of glee in Bella's tone, but she gave Lizzie the chance to regain her dignity.

"Cyrus…" Lizzie's eyes were filled with worry as she got up and nearly lost her balance in haste. She steadied herself by holding onto the staircase railing before hurrying upstairs.

Cyrus' condition had stabilized in the study. Eleanor walked in as the doctor reported, "Mr. Finch is fine now."

It was just an outburst of anger and was nothing serious.
