Chapter 490 Jonathan's Child Rose felt helpless knowing that, with Eleanor here, there was no way she could leave. But that was fine. She wanted to get to the bottom of things anyway.
Rose looked up at Jonathan and smiled. "I need to clear things up before I leave. Otherwise, I won't even have a chance to defend myself if someone falsely accuses me." Jonathan frowned. "Rose, I can-" "It's fine. Only Ms. Maize and I know what really happened." Rose had made up her mind.
Jonathan tightened his grip on Rose's hand, thought for a moment, and finally agreed. "Alright." Bella felt a surge of satisfaction when she saw Rose finally staying. She stepped forward to support Eleanor and began recounting the events.
"Eleanor, Ms. Shaffer just pushed Yara down the stairs. Yara is currently being examined. I saw the whole thing, and Yara's condition... is very pitiful.
"Ms. Shaffer really did push her down the stairs. When I saw Ms. Shaffer trying to escape, I got so agitated that I brought you here.

Rose smiled faintly at Jonathan and was completely unfazed by Bella's words. Meanwhile, Eleanor merely responded with a light hum and showed no clear stance on Bella's request for justice. In the medical wing, Yara cried out in pain and claimed that it hurt everywhere as if she were dying.
The doctor conducted a thorough examination in the shortest tpossible and found no injuries but... The doctor frowned deeply as he held the report.
"Eleanor, listen to how much pain Yara is in!" They heard Yara's cries before even seeing her. Bella was pleased. Yara was indeed following her instructions to act out exaggerated pain and was living up to her title as an award-winning actress. Eleanor furrowed her brows as Rose and Jonathan followed behind her.
"Ms. Maize, it seems... you're pregnant..." The doctor spoke with uncertainty, but his tone was firm.
Yara's cries abruptly stopped. She stared blankly at the doctor. "What did you say?" Pregnant? Had she heard it wrongly? "Ms. Maize, you're pregnant," the doctor repeated.
"Pregnant... pregnant..." Yara momentarily forgot her act as panic rose within her. She hadn't been with any men recently. The only twas that night with that random man she had found. She was carrying his child! Her face turned pale as she thought about it.
Just then, Eleanor and Bella walked in, and they paused at hearing the doctor say, "Ms. Maize, you're pregnant." As a thought crossed Bella's mind, she immediately let go of Eleanor and hurried to the doctor. She grabbed the report from him.
"Pregnant... Yara is pregnant! Eleanor, Yara is carrying a child of the Finch family." Bella was overjoyed as she momentarily forgot about her plan to attack Rose. She looked at the report with great excitement. Her words brought the terrified Yara back to her senses. "A Finch family child..." she muttered.
How could she forget? In the eyes of others, the man she had been with that night was none other than Jonathan! Yes, it was "Jonathan"! She was carrying "Jonathan's child"! Bella gave Yara a satisfied look. "See? You were so shocked by the news. Of course, it's a Finch family child." "Yes, I... I didn't know..." Yara's fear turned into a mix of shock and excitement. Seeing Jonathan and Rose behind Eleanor, she found her courage. "Mr. Finch, I... I'm pregnant." That night in the hotel, Jonathan had left without saying anything and had avoided her ever since. But now, she was pregnant. With so many people present, Jonathan had to give her an explanation.
Everyone turned to look at Jonathan, including Cyrus and Lizzie who had just arrived, and Anastasia. Yara was pregnant, and it seemed that the child was Jonathan's. They had no idea Jonathan and Yara had developed such a relationship. Jonathan was standing next to Rose, making the situation even more complicated.
Amid the myriad of expressions, Jonathan frowned and glanced at Yara. His gaze was indifferent and dismissive. He then sneered.

Yara is a virtuous girl, and the report shows the pregnancy dates back to that night! en "Jon, are you trying to shirk your responsibility? We saw you and Yara in the sbed that morning!" Yara's words were sharp and clear.
From the moment Rose heard the doctor announce Yara's pregnancy, her mind had been buzzing. She een immediately thought of Miles felling her about Jonathan and Yara leaving the hotel together.
She couldn't hear any of Yara's words, but the repeated phrase in her mind, "Yara's carrying Jonathan's child", tugged painfully at her heart. Jonathan's grip tightened around her hand, and his strong voice sounded beside her. "I never had sex with Yara!"
This statement was for everyone present, but mostly for Rose. But Bella and Yara wouldn't allow him to deny it. "Mr. Finch..." Yara bit her lip, looking pitiful. Bella questioned sharply, "Jon, is it true that you're trying to evade responsibility? If Yara's child isn't yours, whose is it?" "She should know best whose child it is!" Jonathan's words implied much as he glanced at Yara.
His look made Yara's heart skip a beat. As if trying to hide something, Yara looked at Rose.
"Mr. Finch, I know you care about Ms. Shaffer, but I willingly gave myself to you that night.
"As for the child, I have nothing to say if you won't acknowledge their presence. You don't have to take responsibility..." Not take responsibility? How could the Finches not take responsibility for a child of the Finch family?
