Billionire 190 Chapter 190 Every man for himself The voice was soft, but Rose still heard it.
"You said, Madeline..." Rose remembered that Madeline was also present at yesterday's ball.
Madeline's eyes flickered. She hesitated to betray Maya but eventually shared, "Maya mentioned you're her cousin and have a close bond with Mr. Miles." Oh?" Rose didn't believe Maya would only say that.
But Rose didn't press for more details. After Madeline left, she got a call and then left Celeste Jewels with a pair of earrings she designed.
Since the morning, Maya had been waiting for Madeline's call.
After befriending the daughter of the Chambers family, she felt she had a chance for a leap forward. -She intended to use her connections with Madeline to get close to Howard.
If she tied the knot with Howard, even Kelly would have to show her srespect. Upon learning that Howard had gone to the shooting range, Maya followed suit.
As Howard exited the shooting range, she quickly closed the distance, seizing the moment as Howard's car drew near. With an apparent lack of fear, Maya entered the road as the car approached. With a screech of brakes, the car cto a stop inches away from Maya. Luckily, it was a close call. Maya saw Howard hastily open the car door and get out.

Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe then picked her up and placed her in the car, heading straight to the hospital. After a thorough examination, there was no sign of injury.
"Perhaps she fainted from the shock," the doctor concluded.
Howard frowned. Since she hadn't awakened, he could only wait at the hospital.
Considering the planned coffee shop rendezvous with Rose, he had to alter the venue and forward a new address to her.
After a while, Maya woke up. Seeing Howard sitting on a chair, she immediately began acting. She made a slight sound to attract Howard's attention.
ose confirmed her arrival with a message, and Howard looked up, as he heard a noise from the ospital bed. Maya, supporting her head and pretending to have a headache, spoke, "Where am I?" +25 BONU Maya held her head, furrowing her brows as if experiencing a headache.
"Where am I?" Before Howard could respond, a woman's voice chimed in, "You're at the hospital!" The familiar voice stunned Maya. At that moment, she forgot she was acting as a just-awakened, fragile patient. She sharply turned her gaze toward the source of the voice. The owner of the voice was none other than Rose. Rose noticed Maya's sharp gaze and raised an eyebrow.
"Maya, so it's you after all." Rose smiled, the irony of fate evident. Howard had informed her about the car accident and the doctor's diagnosis.
Initially, Rose hadn't considered the possibility of Maya scheming. However, with the situation unfolding and Maya's reaction, Rose easily saw through her act. Maya was playing a role. Was Maya trying to extort Howard? Knowing Maya well, Rose suspected that Maya wasn't after money but something more personal. She wanted a connection! "Maya, do you know each other?" Howard asked in surprise.
"We know each other, of course! Maya and I..
Rose smiled mysteriously. Seemingly afraid that Madeline would speak ill of her in front of Howard, Maya immediately got off the hospital bed and hugged Madeline. "Rose, I was so scared just now..
She used a crying tone.
But when she leaned into Rose's ear, she lowered her voice, "Rose, don't say anything reckless. I'm begging you..." Begging her? What about the events from last night? Rose distanced herself from Maya while carrying a subtle smile on her face.
"Why are you crying? You're fine, right? Maya, since you're fine, go handle the discharge yourself. It just so happens that Howard and I have smatters to attend to, we'll leave first." Maya wants to extort Howard, but Rose won't give her the chance. Maya hesitated, reluctant to let go of this hard-earned opportunity and let Rose ruin it.
However, with her moment of hesitation, Rose immediately furrowed her brow.
"Maya okay?" Despite Hose's smiling demeanor, Maya felt an unmistakable underlying threat It was as if Rose was warning her, "If it's not okay, don't blher for speaking out of turn!" 192 Even man +25 BONUS Taking a deep breath, Maya could only compromise. It's okay, of course. You two go ahead, I can handle the discharge on my own." Maya bit her lip, showcasing a helpless and wronged image. Even if she was compromising, she wanted to leave Howard with a pitiable impression.
Rose watched, a disdainful smile playing on her lips. She exchanged a glance with Howard, and the two exited the hospital room. Maya clenched her fists, glaring fiercely at Pse's retreating figure. However, Rose suddenly stopped. She turned around, capturing Maya's menacing expression before it could fade.
Rose said with a cynical smile on her face, "Maya, in two hours, meetat the wishing well in the garden square. Don't be late." In a state of bewilderment, Maya pondered the reason behind Rose's request for a meeting.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmYet, given the burgeoning connection between Rose and Howard, not following Rose's instructions might jeopardize her prospects with Howard.
"Ugh!" Maya gritted her teeth but had no choice but to follow Rose's orders.
Rose led Howard out of the hospital. Observing her, Howard couldn't help but ask, "Were you threatening her?" Rose was speechless, not thinking that Howard would figure that out.
"No, I was saving you!" Rose retrieved a box from her bag and tossed it to rit a Howard. "Consider it a good deed. Saving a life is more important than building a seven-story pagoda." Howard caught the box and curiously opened it. Inside was a pair of men's earrings. "These are for me?" he furrowed his brow.
"Yep, your birthday gift, finally delivered." This was personally designed by her, "You... givingaccessories?" Howard stared at Rose with a puzzled expression. He wondered if he had misunderstood something.
Unfazed, Rose responded, "Don't like them?" In a brief moment of silence, Rose opened her hands.
