Honey, You're a Billionaire by Chandler Solar

Chapter 565 Rose Is So Cool The receptionist couldn't help but feel aggrieved. She had always addressed Chloe as "Mrs. Yones", so she couldn't understand why today was any different.

Realizing that any misstep could lead to greater trouble, the receptionist was at a loss for what to do. Unfortunately, her moment of hesitation further enraged Chloe, who raised her hand once more, ready to strike. However, a firm grip caught Chloe's wrist before the blow could land.

Everyone in the office froze momentarily before letting out a sigh of relief when they saw who had intervened. It was Miles, who had just stepped out of the elevator.

They started to rejoice at Miles' timely presence when their attention shifted to the woman who had grabbed Chloe's wrist. Someone with sharp eyes soon recognized her.

"M-Ms. Shaffer?" The woman in question was none other than Rose, whose nwas currently plastered all over the media. Not only was she Oliver's biological granddaughter, but she was also the rightful heiress to the Young Group. "Don't you think it's inappropriate to hit someone in public?" Rose locked eyes with Chloe.

She had seen Chloe before and knew that the woman was Gabriel's mother. Rose remembered her from the staged funeral in Aquastead, where Chloe had shown a keen interest in the Young Group's inheritance. Clearly, Chloe was here that day because of the news. Earlier, Rose had barely stepped out of the elevator when she saw Chloe raising her hand to strike someone. Instinctively, she rushed out to intervene.

Glancing at the terrified woman, Chloe furrowed her brows slightly.

"So what if I hit her?" Chloe retorted, showing no remorse. "This receptionist can't even perform a simple task like serving coffee. Clearly, she hasn't been properly trained.

"She almost burnedtoday. What if she scalded an important client tomorrow? I was just trying to teach her a lesson." Despite her attempts to rationalize her behavior, her words were evidently nothing more than a thinly veiled excuse for venting her anger.

Rose had never liked Chloe, and at that moment, she found the woman's attitude even more distasteful.

"Oh, is that so?" she responded with a faint smile. "It seems like she isn't quite suited for the receptionist role then." Turning to the assaulted receptionist, she asked, "Do you have any other skills?" "Do I have any other skills?" the receptionist thought as she hesitated. "I... I majored in design..." she finally replied.

The receptionist had recently graduated, and her ambition had always been to join Young Group's design team. However, the competitive recruitment process had made it challenging.

Thankfully, her appearance had granted her an advantage, landing her the receptionist position. She hoped that with hard work and dedication, she could eventually transition into a design role through internal recruitment. But now, having crossed Chloe, she feared that even this job could be at risk.

Clutching her sore cheek, she was worrying about her future when Rose's clear and pleasant voice rang out. "Perfect! Starting today, you'll be transferred to Young's House of Jewels as the assistant to the design director." Although Rose wasn't familiar with the design director, she understood that if the receptionist had a design background, this role would provide the best opportunity for her to learn, grow, and advance within the company. The entire office fell into stunned silence. They couldn't help but wonder if they had misheard Rose.

"You can head to HR to process your transfer paperwork," Rose added with a soft smile.

The warmth of her smile snapped the receptionist out of her daze.

"Ms. Shaffer..." She couldn't believe her ears. Not only was she not being fired, but she was being offered the opportunity to work as the design director's assistant.

Still in shock, she saw that Rose had already turned away, seemingly focused on more pressing matters. Realizing she shouldn't interrupt, she quickly swallowed her words and stepped back.

Chloe's anger boiled over as she witnessed the receptionist leaving. She spun around to confront Rose. "Rose, what do you think you're doing?" "Oh, nothing. I was just following your advice. She's clearly not suited for the front desk," Rose replied calmly. Chloe was rendered speechless. "She's taking my advice? Yeah, right. This is more like a blatant insult!" she fumed inwardly.

Her expression darkened further, and she tried to yank her wrist free from Rose's grip, but to no avail. She shot Rose a venomous glare. "Let go!" With a casual shrug, Rose released her grip and then deliberately wiped her hand with a tissue. The sight of it only caused Chloe's fury to escalate. "Rose, you—" Before she could finish her outburst, Miles cut her off. "Aunt Chloe, what brings you here?" Reminded of her purpose, Chloe dove right into the issue at hand. "Oliver is gone, and suddenly, a granddaughter, along with a suspicious will, emerges out of nowhere. Who knows if any of it is real?" whovel Miles had anticipated this confrontation and was fully prepared.

He began, "Aunt Chloe, since you have concerns about their legitimacy, please follow me." He then gestured toward the conference room.

Chloe followed his gaze and gave a cold snort before marching toward the conference room without another word.

"Rosie," Miles called gently, his tone softening as he turned to Rose.

Rose recognized the cue. They joined Chloe in the conference room while murmurs of admiration followed them.

"That was so cool!" "Ms. Shaffer is incredible!" "Did you see how she stood up for Olivia? That was absolutely amazing!" The receptionist, Olivia Lenner, had been the object of sympathy when she was being bullied earlier. But now, every single person in the office was filled with envy.

"Did Ms. Shaffer really say Olivia would be transferred to be the design director's assistant?" someone whispered.

"Of course! Why would she lie about that?" cthe response.

"But the design director is Ms. Harriette. Will she even agree to this?"

When Harriette returned, Miles had offered her a position in the Young Group. After deliberating over various roles, she finally settled on the position of design director for Young's House of Jewels. Despite her questionable design taste-which even snon-designers found hard to appreciate Miles had let her hold that position due to their relationship. "It doesn't matter if she agrees or not. Right now, the entire Young Group belongs to Ms. Shaffer. Her word is equivalent to a decree within the company." "I'm so jealous of Olivia. She went from receptionist to design director's assistant. That's like a rocket-fueled promotion!" "If I had known this would happen, I'd have gladly volunteered to be the one bullied!"

As the office buzzed with chatter, it was clear that they were not only envious of Olivia but also infawe of Rose. Many had already made up their minds to stay on her good side and impress her at every opportunity.

Meanwhile, Harriette had arrived at the company early that morning. She had seen Chloe coming and fully expected her to stir up trouble, but things hadn't gone as expected.

Harriette scowled silently, her gaze sweeping over the employees, who were now praising Rose, before shifting irritably toward the conference room.

"Chloe isn't going to let Rose inherit over Young Group without a fight. I'm sure taking over the company wouldn't be easy for Rose," she thought as her lips curled into a cold smile. Inside the conference room, Chloe's expression changed when she saw the people seated there. The room was filled with sof Young Group's most influential figures, including several of Oliver's most trusted confidants.

She had been at the office early, monitoring Miles' actions. Yet, somehow, she hadn't seen these key players arrive.

Her face darkened, for she hadn't expected Miles to be so well-prepared.
