Honey, You're a Billionaire? novel Chapter 57

Chapter 57 She Was Here! 

Jonathan’s instruction rang through the microphone and to the speakers in the event venue. He’d not said a word during the other participants‘ showcase, yet now he was asking to meet Kelly in person! 

Did that mean the award was right on the horizon for Kelly? The audience gazed at Kelly in sheer admiration, the latter which was buzzing with excitement. 

Jonathan Finch had called personally for her. Did that mean she’d finally caught his attention? She took a deep breath to compose herself. She couldn’t look too shocked now that Jonathan was looking at her. 

Smiling pleasantly, she was about to accept Jonathan’s offer when the man spoke again, “But before that, let us see the final participant’s creation!” 

He then went out of the lounge and backstage. 

Kelly frowned lightly, asking, “Final participant? Weren’t there only 28 of us? I should be the final one, right 

Next thing she knew, the participant list had been displayed on screen. Kelly grew rigid with fright when she saw that Rose’s name had been colored red. 

Rose was just as shocked at the sight. She’d been about to go onstage to reveal Kelly’s scheme in front of everybody. She hadn’t submitted her creation, so the organizer should’ve disqualified her already. 

So what was happening now? 

“Now let us welcome Ms. Rose Shaffer onstage,” the host said. 

Everyone looked to the side of the stage where the participants filed in, but Rose was not there. 

Kelly’s panic instantly faded. Rose was still unconscious in the hospital, so there was no way she’d be here right now. 

She was about to take advantage of the situation to further smear Rose’s name when a voice suddenly rang out from amidst the crowd. 

“I’m right here…” 

Rose’s throat was painfully sore as she rasped out the words. Only then did the crowd turn to look at her. Upon hearing her, Jonathan looked in her direction. Shock and delight filled his being. 

Rose was awake! Not only that, but she was present here too! 

“I’m here! I’m Rose Shaffer!” Rose said again, voice shaky. 

Jonathan shot his bodyguards a look. They immediately went to clear out a path for Rose to the stage. All eyes were on her as she walked onstage. 

Meanwhile, no one but Ezra noticed how Jonathan silently disappeared back behind the curtains. He narrowed his eyes, then glanced at Rose. He grinned lightly. 

So your name is Rose, hm?” 

Rose was slowly walking toward Kelly, glaring fixedly at her. The latter was nearly trembling in sheer panic. She took a step back, wanting to leave.

“You can leave from here, Ms. Kelly,” the host said.
