Chapter 376 Fighting For Him Rose had a really long dream.
In the dream, Oliver was sitting on the bench at the park where they first met. He was holding that exact cake when they first met and was smiling and waving at her. "Rose, chere..." Rose happily went to him, but when she got closer, he suddenly stood up and walked further away from her.
"Grandpa..." Rose wanted to chase after him, but her feet seemed to be stuck to the ground. No matter how much she tried, she couldn't walk forward. Rose wanted to cry.
She kept yelling for him as if the moment he was gone, she wouldn't be able to see him again. That fear kept growing stronger.
"Grandpa, don't go! Please don't go!" Rose yelled.
Finally, Oliver stopped. He slowly turned back to Rose and smiled as he said something to her. However, no matter how much she tried, she couldn't tell what he was saying.
She panicked as she watched Oliver give her a final wave as if it was his last farewell. Then, he disappeared into a bright light.
When Rose woke up, she was on a bed. Her pillow was drenched with cold sweat.
Before she opened her eyes, the scene from her dream appeared once again in her mind before being replaced by the scene where Oliver died in her arms.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtShe had hoped what happened was a dream and that she would see Oliver stand in front of her with love in his eyes and call her nwarmly, but the sound from downstairs reminded her that it wasn't just a dream.
It wasn't a dream. So Grandpa was...
Rose opened her eyes and shot up from the bed. She needed to see Oliver again! Perhaps her body was too weak and because she was too frantic, she felt dizzy the moment she got off the bed. It took a lot from her to try to stand and not fall.
The sound from downstairs grew louder. Rose didn't want to waste another second.
Downstairs, after Chloe was dragged away by Gabriel, she successfully freed herself from Gabriel and found a way back.
"Now with Oliver dead, they can dream on if they're trying to have all his assets for themselves!" she thought. "Miles, we're both adopted by Oliver. Neither of us is better than the other, but I'm your elder. I should be the one taking care of Oliver's matters. How could you?" Chloe was stopped from entering, so she kept shouting from outside.
When Rose walked downstairs, she saw the Finch's bodyguards blocking people from outside. Chloe was screaming like a maniac. She no longer looked like a noble. "Miles, the crematorium car is here..." Anastasia was standing next to Miles.
Everyone present was still in shock. No one would've thought that Oliver's fake death would becreality.
It was just a ploy to expose Kelly's true colors, but in the end, Oliver still died at Kelly's hands.
Miles turned to Oliver, who was lying in the coffin, with tears in his eyes for a while before finally saying, "Just a little longer..." A little longer? For who? Anastasia was puzzled. When she was about to say something, Jonathan noticed the person walking down the stairs.
He was watching everything unfold like an outsider without any sign of emotion, but when he saw Rose, he sprung from the couch in shock. He quickly strode to Rose in just a few steps.
His movements drew attention from the crowd. Everyone followed his line of gaze and saw Rose standing at the stairs.
Rose was wearing white. Though she gained consciousness, she was pale as a ghost, looking like she would pass out anytime.
Everyone could tell that Oliver's death did a great deal to Rose. Her frail manner made everyone feel pity for her. "Miss Shaffer, my condolences. I believe Oliver wouldn't want to see you sad either." The butler couldn't help but console Rose when she walked past him.
Rose stopped in her tracks. He wouldn't want to see her sad... Oliver lost his life because he tried to protect her from Kelly. It's all her fault! e She couldn't hold back her tears as a wave of sadness overwhelmed her. Her sobs echoed through the large hall. Slowly after, the butler and the other maids started crying as well. en.swhovelsTheir cries were louder than Chloe's yelling from outside.
For a moment, Chloe was also sad, but it only lasted briefly as her heart turned cold. She sneered. "Ha! What a great actress." She just got recognized as his granddaughter not long ago. It was foolish of her to try to gain brownie points from the Young family with just a few tears! Chloe decided that she could not let Rose gain anything.
"Rose, is it? Don't think that you can fool the Young family into giving you the assets just by crying! None of the assets will go to you!" Chloe screamed into the hall. Everyone in the hall could hear her words. Jonathan frowned deeply. Why would his woman need any of the Young family's assets? "Finley..." Jonathan was about to get someone to send Chloe away, but before he could finish, Miles interrupted him. "Since Rose is here, it's tto send Grandpa off." The crematorium car had been waiting outside for a while. Rose was the reason Miles had been waiting so long? Anastasia was a little upset.
When Oliver's coffin was outside, Miles gave Rose the best seat next to Oliver. This deeply annoyed Anastasia. She had not forgotten what she had to endure that night. Although Kelly was the culprit, everything Kelly prepared was for Rose.
Rose was the one who was supposed to endure all that, but Anastasia had to go through it. She would never let Kelly off easy. The swas true for Rose.
Seeing Rose's despaired look,
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmAnastasia thought the sthing as Chloe. Rose was just in on it for the Young family's assets. But Anastasia would not let that happen as long as she was there! After Oliver was cremated, Miles passed his urn to Rose.
"What are you doing, Miles?" Anastasia stopped him.
The guards who had been stopping Chloe were also surprised at Miles' actions. Chloe took the opportunity to rush forward.
"Miles, how could you simply give away Oliver's urn?" Chloe screamed as she reached for the urn.
Rose was also stunned. She had no idea why Miles would pass her Oliver's urn.
Because of that, she wasn't ready when Chloe reached for the urn. When Rose cback to her senses, Chloe had already grabbed hold of the urn.
But Chloe was too focused on getting the urn, and she did it in a hurry, so she didn't manage to get a good hold of it.
Seeing that the urn was about to fall, Rose subconsciously reached fonit. But in Chloe's eyes, it seemed like Rose was trying to steal from her.
Chloe then pushed Rose aside.
Rose staggered from the push. She didn't manage to balance herself and fell onto the ground. As she fell, the urn also clashed with the ground with a loud clang. The room fell silent.
