Devoted Love:The Billionaire's Precious Wife-Chapter 28

"My grandpa wants to see you." Romeo looked at Rosemary, his magnetic voice gentle yet bewitching,

"When are you free so we can go see him together?"

"If you’re uneasy going as my fiancée, you can just show some care on behalf of the Collins family," Romeo added.

"What a great idea!" Kenneth hadn’t expected Romeo to be so smart.

"Yeah, you show some affection on behalf of the Collins family..." Louisa echoed.

Rosemary thought," So no one was asking for my opinion?"

"Rose, you should visit Phillip tomorrow then. You’ve been home for two days, it’s about time."

After all, they were the ones who proposed the marriage, and Romeo is quite the catch.

That old man was still in the hospital, and it was said that his condition isn’t looking good... As a younger generation, she should pay a visit, showing some affection.

"Yeah, that’s right, go pay a visit," Kenneth said with a grin, "Bring some gifts..."

"No need for gifts, just your presence is enough," Romeo’s voice was clear.

"No, no, no, it’s our first meeting. We can’t skip the courtesy!" Kenneth insisted.

"Leave it to me then," Romeo gently looked at Rosemary, "We’ll arrange the specific time later?"

Seeing the hopeful looks from her parents, Rosemary finally agreed, "Alright."

She’ll just check on Phillip’s recovery. After all, she did accept his blank cheque a few days ago.

Romeo casually said a few words before saying, "I won’t bother you guys anymore."

"Are you leaving so soon? Romeo, you’ve brought so many gifts, this is..."

Before Louisa could finish her sentence, Romeo said, "Just a small token, please don’t take it to heart."

"Rose, see Romeo out!"

Rosemary was speechless.

Why did she have to see him out?!

"No need, Miss Collins, please stay."

Seeing the faint smile on Romeo’s lips, Rosemary raised an eyebrow. Was he annoyed that she only told him her first name and not her family name? Actually, she had only taken on this family name for two days, and she was still getting used to it.

"Get some rest, my fiancée."

Fiancée? When did she agree to that??

Kenneth and Louisa were over the moon when they heard him!

It seems that Romeo is quite satisfied with Rose... This development is beyond their expectations!

Upstairs, Serena couldn’t hold back anymore and ran downstairs. In a place where no one could see her, she dashed towards the garden path, "Romeo..."

Seeing Serena rushing over, Carl immediately blocked her way, "Miss Serena, what’s wrong?"

Looking at Romeo’s retreating figure, Serena was in great agony, "Romeo, it was indeed my fault that your grandpa’s condition worsened. I feel really guilty... Thank you for not embarrassing me in front of my parents just now..."

Carl was speechless.

Mr. McMillian just didn’t take you seriously, it’s not like he was deliberately not embarrassing this Miss Serena...

"I heard that your grandpa’s condition is not good, I want to go see him. When you pick up my sister tomorrow, can you take me with you?"

"No need," There was a hint of coldness in Romeo’s eyes, "Grandpa wants to see my fiancée."

Serena didn’t expect him to reject her, so directly.. Her heart ached, but she clung on to a faint hope. "I don’t have to go as your fiancee, I could go as a representative of the Collins family... Romeo, can I

please apologize to grandpa?"

She looked at Romeo hopefully, wishing he’d say yes.

But Romeo was icy, his gaze cold.

"Only my fiancee can represent the Collins family."

His gaze was cold, his voice firm.

"Romeo...Carl?"

Serena couldn’t believe this manservant dared stop her!

Before Rosemary returned, this guy had been nothing but respectful to her.

"We don’t want to cause a scene", Carl said, before turning to catch up with Romeo.

Watching Romeo’s retreating figure, Serena shouted, "Romeo, believe it or not, I didn’t mean to hurt grandpa... I really didn’t!"

Carl thought, Did Miss Serena think Romeo’s coldness was because of what happened to Phillip?

"It’s clear to everyone, Romeo didn’t care about her! But Miss Rosemary...Romeo seemed different with her."

In the living room, Louisa looked at a pile of gifts. "Rosemary, these are gifts from Romeo..."

"You guys handle it."

Rosemary went upstairs. She hadn’t expected to gain a fiance in the process of meeting her family,things were more complicated than she’d thought. "Romeo..."

In the garden, Serena watched Romeo walk away and started to quietly sob.

Martha comforted her, "Miss Serena, he’s already gone..."

"Martha, what should I do..." Serena cried. "Romeo treats Rosemary differently."

"The game’s just begun. No one knows who will come out on top." Martha patted her back, trying to be rational. "Rosemary may be pretty, but she grew up poor. She might not be able to keep Romeo’s

interest." freewēbnoveℓ.com

Serena’s tears welled up, suddenly feeling there might be some truth to Martha’s words.

"I think, in a few days, Romeo will realize you’re the one who’s best suited to be his fiancee!"

After all, Serena had been learning all sorts of skills since she was a kid. She’s a typical lady, while Rosemary was just a village girl.

The McMillian family was top–tier, they only mingled with people of culture. They wouldn’t choose someone with only surface beauty! Comforted by Martha, Serena felt a bit better.

Rosemary had just returned to her room when her phone started buzzing.

It was a familiar number, the person had already called her once today.

She picked up, hearing the familiar deep voice from the other end.

"Rosemary". Romeo’s voice was deep and magnetic. "I’m home."

Rosemary asked automatically, "What’s up?"

This question amused Romeo. Did she not realize he was reporting his whereabouts to her?

Romeo chuckled lightly, "You still haven’t accepted my friend request."

Hearing him say this, Rosemary suddenly remembered that it was indeed the case, "I’ll accept it later."

She had been so busy today so she had forgotten about it.

Romeo’s voice was soft, like the plucking of guitar strings, "What time should I pick you up tomorrow?"

"Two in the afternoon."

After all, she had other things to handle.

"Location?"

"Right outside my house."

"Got it, I’ll be there on time."

Just as Rosemary was about to hang up, Romeo asked, "Don’t you like chocolate flavored cake?"

Rosemary thought, what?

"I noticed you didn’t eat a single bite in the car."

Rosemary didn’t expect this man to pay such close attention to her preferences, said, "I don’t like chocolate very much." Romeo got it, "Then I’ll get you other flavors in the future."

Rosemary was speechless.

"You saved my grandpa, it’s only right that I get you some snacks."

Rosemary said nothing.

"I won’t disturb your rest anymore." Romeo kindly said, "See you tomorrow, my bride–to–be."

Rosemary kept silent.

"Goodnight."

Romeo thought that Rosemary would also say goodnight, but she simply responded and ended the call.

What a unique girl.

Just as Rosemary was about to rest after hanging up, her phone vibrated again.

[I don’t care, I need the design draft now, I need to get the factory to work overtime!]

[Such a big order, I must get it!]

Rosemary raised an eyebrow, replied, [Who’s the big shot this time?]

Was it her dad again?

[This time it’s a big deal, even bigger than your dad! You could say it’s...]

[Stop the chit–chat.]

Rosemary had no mood for his rambling. She realized she was out of stock and remembered today’s auction. Because of the bidding by bidder number one, those six HeartEase Herbs cost her quite a

bit....

It’s time to make some money..

Rosemary: [I’ll start designing now.]

[Brilliant, boss! Finally getting to work! I’ll notify the factory, get them ready!]

Rosemary has a few factories, dedicated to producing her clothing and accessories designs.

Even she probably didn’t expect that when she looked up from her work, it was already morning.

Rubbing her sore wrist, she sent the final design draft. The clock was already pointing at half past seven.

[Boss, if you work this hard every day, you’ll be the richest person in the world! You’ll be richer than Romeo then!]
