Honey, You're a Billionaire?

Too Late

Rose felt weak and unbearably hot. She was all too familiar with this sensation.

Unlike last time, when she could still choose for herself, she feared she would not be getting a choice this time.

"Hehe. You're here, sweetheart..."

Suddenly, a perverted voice rang out.

Rose looked up to see a bald and paunchy old man with only a towel covering the lower half of his body.

That wretched Nixon!

Rose could not resist cursing. She could not believe he found a man like that to harass her!

Hank did not care that Kelly was not in the room. His eyes lit up when he saw Rose, who was way prettier than Kelly. His lusty heart began to thump wildly.

Rose gritted her teeth. Just as he was about to lunge at her, she used all her strength to duck under his arm. Dashing into the bathroom, she shut the door and locked it.

Hank's expression instantly changed. He tried to coax her with a suggestive voice, "Why did you close the door, pretty lady? Hurry up and open it. Let's have some fun together..." Inside the bathroom, Rose could not bear it anymore. She turned on the tap to fill the bathtub. Then, she soaked herself in the water. Still, she could not suppress the urge she felt. This drug was stronger than the one used on her last time.

Meanwhile, after a few attempts, Hank seemed to have lost his patience." Hurry up and open the door. If you don't open it, I'll knock it down!"

Rose instantly thought of her husband. She took her phone out and called him. "Hello?" Jonathan's low and charming voice came through the phone.

Rose was about to answer when she heard someone banging loudly on the door. Startled, she dropped her phone in the bathtub.

Though she hastily scooped her phone up, it was already broken..

The noises were getting louder. Rose closed her eyes in despair. For the first time in her life, she felt scared.

Jonathan was in the elevator. He had a foul look on his face as he gazed at his phone. The call had ended abruptly.

She called him, but she did not say anything before hanging up. He wondered if she was bragging about how busy and occupied she was.

Jonathan thought about Rose being in a room with a random man. The irritation in his heart turned into a raging fire.

But then, his expression changed. He felt like he had heard a heavy collision over the phone just now...

Sensing that something was off, Jonathan immediately called the bodyguards. He ordered them to track the location of Rose's phone.

A few minutes later, they found out that the phone was in Room 1801 of Aquastead Hotel.

Jonathan rushed over right away..

In Room 1801, Hank finally managed to get the bathroom door open.

When he saw the woman curled up in the corner, he could barely contain his itching desire. "Hmph! How dare you waste so much of my energy?"

He swore to break this woman tonight to appease his anger.

Just as Hank was about to lunge forward, the door to the room suddenly opened. Before he could figure out what was going on, a strong kick landed on his body and he went flying backward. Rose's consciousness continued to wane due to the effects of the drug.

Entering the bathroom, Jonathan saw the woman trembling while she curled up in a corner. His heart ached at the sight.

He walked over to her.

Sensing that someone was approaching her, Rose gripped a shard of broken glass in her hand. "Don't come any closer!"

Her voice was shaking. She sounded like an injured animal that was still stubbornly fighting back.

"It's okay. It's me," Jonathan comforted her in a gentle voice.

Rose was stunned when she heard the familiar voice. Looking up, she saw Jonathan. "It's you..."

"Yes, it's me." Stepping forward, Jonathan removed the shard of glass from her hand. Then, he grabbed a towel and wrapped it around her body.

But when he came near, Rose only felt like he was adding fuel to the fire.

She had completely let down her guard and was even more sensitive now. "I ... I was drugged..."

Jonathan's gaze darkened. She had been drugged twice in the span of a few days. He could not believe how gullible she was.

His eyes were stormy. "I'll take you to the hospital."

Then, he carried Rose in his arms. He was about to walk out when Rose's slender arms wrapped around his neck.

"But I think... it's too late."
