Chapter 491 Rose's Way of Apologizing Yara's words garnered more sympathy and made it more believable that she was carrying Jonathan's child. As expected, Eleanor spoke up. "How's the child in her womb?" "There's no major issue, but it's best to take care of it and ensure a healthy pregnancy," the doctor replied.
Eleanor hummed with her face devoid of emotions. "I heard she fell down the stairs but is unharmed. This child is fortunate." Eleanor's tone was ambiguous. Bella quickly picked up on it. "Yes. Fortunately, the ancestors of the Finch family are looking over us!" "Ha..." Eleanor chuckled lightly and left the others unsure of her intent. She then told Yara, "Listen to the doctor and take good care of the child." "Yes, Grandma," Yara said, feeling pleased.
Eleanor's instructions implied her acceptance of the child. Yara felt reassured, and Bella also relaxed.
Bella had been working to match the Maize and Finch families for a long tand hadn't expected such good news today. She wasted no tbringing up the marriage between the two families. "Eleanor, I'll inform the Maize family tomorrow morning to discuss the marriage. And about tonight's incident..." Bella hadn't forgotten about Rose. She had planned to teach Rose a lesson tonight, but Yara's pregnancy was already a significant blow to Rose.
Bella decided to hold off and planned to make Rose's life miserable once Yara firmly secured Jonathan. That would make things a lot easier too.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtWith this in mind, Bella looked at Rose. "Eleanor, what should we do about Ms. Shaffer pushing Yara down the stairs? We need to give Yara justice." Eleanor glanced at Rose when she heard the question. Rose's lips twitched slightly.
Then, Yara spoke up. "Grandma, forget it. Although I don't know why Ms. Shaffer pushed me, I believe she didn't do it on purpose.
"Ms. Shaffer, I forgive you!" Yara was forgiving her? Rose found it amusing. "Ms. Maize, what are you forgivingfor? Yara was momentarily stunned but quickly recovered her composure. "For pushingdown the stairs, of course!" "Ms. Maize, you're truly forgiving!" Rose sneered.
Yara bit her lip with a grievance. "Ms. Shaffer, I've forgiven..." Rose stopped smiling. "When we arrived earlier, we heard you crying in pain as if your bones had fractured. It sounded like you were in a lot of pain. How cyou're suddenly not in pain anymore?" Yara's expression stiffened. "Who said I'm not in pain? I... ah..." Yara tried to act again, but her sudden switch felt unnatural. The others started doubting the severity of her fall. "If you're in pain, you should have a thorough check-up to be sure. We've seen the pregnancy report, so we should check the other reports to feel assured..." As soon as Rose finished speaking, Jonathan strode forward and grabbed the stack of reports from the table. He began reading them one by one as a cold smile formed on his lips.
"There's no injury. Where's the pain coming from? Your acting is indeed impressive." "I..." As Yara's lies were exposed, she regretted not being tougher on herself earlier. But thinking about the pregnancy, she feared for her child.
Luckily, she had been careful when she fell. She dared not think about the consequences if she had harmed the child when she fell.
Yet, even though her lies were exposed, she had an excuse. "Although I'm not injured, Ms. Shaffer pushingis a fact. don't need anything else. She cangust apologize to me." Yara met Rose's gaze. Yara had just said she forgave Rose, and now she wanted an apology.
Rose frowned. Jonathan threw the stack of reports onto the table and walked over to Rose's side. "Rose..." He wanted to tell Rose to ignore Yara, but Rose spoke up. "Alright!" Everyone was stunned, including Yara who hadn't expected Rose to readily agree to apologize. Since Rose was going to apologize, Yara decided to gladly accept it.
Her lips curled as she waited for Rose to start apologizing, but Rose stepped forward and unexpectedly grabbed her wrist.
Yara was shocked. "What are you doing?" Rose raised an eyebrow and smiled as she replied, "Don't you wantto apologize?" Yara tried to break free, but Rose held her tightly and pulled her up from the bed.
"Rose, just apologize. Why are you pulling me?" Rose didn't mind explaining why she was pulling Yara. "It's to take you back to the stairs and actually push you down so I can apologize." "You..." Yara panicked when she saw that Rose wasn't joking. Despite her struggles, Rose had a powerful grip and managed to drag Yara to the door of the medical wing.
Yara knew that if Rose pushed her once more, she might not be able to guarantee the safety of her child.

Before Bella could get close, Rose whispered in Yara's ear. "Ms. Maize, explain what happened earlier, or I swear I'll push you for real." The menacing threat was spoken in such a low voice that only Yara could hear it.
"Rose!" Yara gritted her teeth. She tried to grab Rose's hair but failed Instead, her hand was caught and twisted downward by Rose. "Ah!" Yara cried out in pain. Rose continued dragging Yara forward, counting down as she walked, "Three, two..." "I'll tell them! I'll speak!" Before Rose could count down to one, Yara couldn't hold out any longer. Rose was serious about pushing her down the stairs.
Rose stopped and looked satisfied
as the others approached. Bella was the first to arrive and intended to help Yara, but a tall figure blocked her path. Bella looked up to see Jonathan's stern face. "Jon, are you just gonna let Rose do this?" Bella chided sharply. Jonathan answered the question directly, "Yes. So what?" "Jonathan, you..." Bella clenched her teeth.
The thought of Jonathan being so protective of Rose that he would go to the extent of using connections to keep Jack from leaving the police station infuriated her. While Bella seethed, Jonathan looked affectionately at Rose. He had understood her intentions the moment she dragged Yara out of the medical wing and threatened to push her down the stairs.
"Speak!" Rose calmly urged.
