Chapter 71 Is She His Girlfriend?
Inside the elevator, Kelly was seething with anger as she stared at Rose’s retreating figure. With graceful strides, Rose exited the hotel and was about to hail a taxi when she received a call from Evan.
“Rose, there’s a celebration dinner for the National Jewelry Design Award tonight. Mr. Miles would like to invite you.
The National Jewelry Design Award had ended several days ago, and the celebration dinner had been scheduled earlier. However, due to Rose’s hospitalization, Miles had deliberately postponed it.
“Mr. Miles…
During the competition, both Evan and Miles had helped her immensely.
Feeling the need to express her gratitude in person, she readily agreed, “Sure. What’s the time and the venue? I’ll be there on time.”
“Tell me your location, and I’ll send a driver to pick you up.”
On the other end of the phone, Evan instinctively asked after recalling Rose’s “contractual husband“, “Are you alone?”
Su Ran hesitated for a moment as she didn’t grasp his intention. 1
She glanced at her side and replied, “Yes, I’m alone. Is there a problem?”
A faint smile played on Evan’s lips. Of course, it was better that she was alone. He didn’t want her to bring her “contractual husband” to tonight’s event. Rose then provided her address.
Ten minutes later, a luxury car pulled up in front of her. She gave the driver a brief look–the driver wore a black mask, and his cap was pulled low.
Nevertheless, he exuded youthful energy and an aura of radiance. He seemed more like a celebrity deliberately disguising himself to avoid attention than a driver.
Rose didn’t think much of it and mentioned the name of a shopping center. Then, she closed her eyes and relaxed during the drive. Half an hour later, another car stopped outside Aquastead Hotel.
The driver couldn’t find Rose, whom Jonathan had instructed him to pick up. He immediately called Evan, but there was no answer. At the same time, in the CEO’s office on the top floor of the Finch Building
As the bodyguard reported over the phone, Jonathan’s face, which initially held a faint smile, gradually darkened.
“After Ms. Shaffer left Aquastead Hotel, she got into a car and went to the shopping center, where she proceeded to try on clothes. The driver of the car continued to follow her, and he resembled Mr. Tumer.” The bodyguard was trembling. Jonathan had asked him to protect Rose, not monitor her movements. He didn’t have to report to him if there were no special circumstances. However, Ezra was a special case. “Are you sure it’s him? Jonathan’s voice grew colder.
Before the bodyguard could respond, someone suddenly snatched the phone from his hand. The: bodyguard’s eyes widened in fear when he saw the person in front of him,
“Mr Turner….

Even with the mask, the bodyguard was certain it was him.
Ezra raised an eyebrow at the bodyguard before he cheerfully called out to Jonathan on the other end of the line. “Bro”
“Ezra, what are you doing?”
Jonathan abruptly rose from his seat. His defenses were palpable, sending shivers down one’s spine even through the distance of the phone call, Ezra grew increasingly intrigued as he sensed it.
“Of course, I’m going to have some fun. I’m at World Grand Plaza. Would you like to join me?” he warmly
asked
“Ezra
Jonathan’s anger flared up instantly, but before he could issue a warning, Ezra hung up the phone. He tossed the phone back to the nearby bodyguard and strolled toward a high–end fashion store.
He was carrying several shopping bags, resembling a dutiful companion who accompanied his girlfriend to go shopping. At that moment, Rose was trying on a gown in a fitting room.
As Ezra returned to the store, the shop attendants observed him.
One murmured, “He looks like Ezra… Look, isn’t it him?
Though the voices were hushed, Ezra overheard them. He seemed to have a sudden realization as a glint of mischief flickered in his eyes.
In the next instant, he pretended to accidentally slip off his mask, revealing his extraordinarily handsome face. The shop attendants gasped in astonishment.
“It’s Ezra…”
“Oh my goodness… I can’t believe I see the Visualist Ezra in person. He’s so handsome
“Is that lady his girlfriend?”
Rose emerged from the fitting room, just in time to hear the word “girlfriend“.
