Honey, You're a Billionaire? novel Chapter 508

Eleanor immediately rejected the idea of inviting Rose to their home. She was worried that Jonathan's fascination with Rose would only lead to more paranoia and surveillance, which was becoming a nuisance.

Suddenly, she thought of something. "I heard that Anastasia has gotten a divorce. Is that true?"

"That seems to be the case. Ms. Young and Anthony had been going through the divorce process for quite some time, but the Weasley family is resisting.

"The media speculated that the divorce would never happen, but it finally did," Anna responded, clearly well-informed about the latest gossip.

However, she couldn't quite grasp why Eleanor was suddenly interested in this. Eleanor didn't elaborate further.

Regalia's high society had indeed been abuzz with recent events. First, the eldest daughter of the Maize family married the Finch family. Now, Anastasia had finally ended her own marriage.

Rumors had long circulated that she was enamored with Jonathan. Now that she was single again, speculation ran wild that she might try to rekindle her connection with him.

As expected, Anastasia didn't waste any time.

Merely three days after her divorce, she was already making her move. Under the guise of honoring the late Oliver, she hastily organized a charity auction scheduled to take place in just three days. Invitations were swiftly dispatched to Regalia's most elite and influential women.

It was obvious to everyone that the commemoration of Oliver was merely a facade. Anastasia's true intention was to declare her newly single status publicly. However, despite the transparency of her intentions, no one dared to confront her openly.

Completely immersed in ensuring the success of the upcoming auction, she had temporarily put all matters related to the Young family's business on hold.

As night descended, Miles stormed into the Young Estate, wasting no time in inquiring about Anastasia's whereabouts from Patrick.

Upon learning that she was in her room, Miles made a beeline for her door and kicked it open with a resounding crash that reverberated throughout the house.

Anastasia, who had been leisurely enjoying a face mask, was taken aback by the sudden noise. She turned to see Miles standing in the doorway, his face contorted with the anger she had fully expected.

"Anastasia, I don't care what you're up to, but exploiting Grandpa's name is absolutely unacceptable!" Miles roared, his voice trembling with rage.

Anastasia remained composed as she leaned against the sofa. In contrast to Miles' anger, she was utterly calm.

She began, "How am I exploiting Grandpa's name? He was always passionate about charity work during his lifetime. Organizing this auction is my way of honoring his memory and carrying on his charitable legacy."

She continued smoothly, "Don't worry, Miles. All proceeds from this charity auction will be donated in Grandpa's name."

Anastasia's self-righteous declaration only served to stoke Miles' fury further.

However, before he could retort, Anastasia interjected with a smile, "Miles, I know you want to stop me, but the invitations have already been sent out. If the charity auction doesn't go ahead as planned in three days, it will reflect poorly on the Young family and Grandpa's legacy."

"You..." Miles' anger welled up, yet he found himself calming down as he maintained a fixed gaze on Anastasia.

After a prolonged silence, he finally said, "Even if you're single again, Jonathan won't be interested in you."

The underlying motive behind Anastasia's organization of the charity auction in Oliver's name was apparent. She aimed to leverage the event to publicly disclose her divorce, thereby presenting herself as available, particularly to Jonathan.

She had always harbored deep feelings for Jonathan, which had remained steadfast throughout the years. Alas, her affection was not reciprocated.
