Chapter 48: Chapter 48

As soon as Rosemary got in the car, Romeo swooped her up into his arms and asked, "Who are you texting?" He noticed Rosemary smiling while replying to a text in front of the office.

"Aren’t you the one who gave my WhatsApp number to Grandpa?" Rosemary responded.

"He has been blowing up my phone all day, Romeo complained, "He can’t stop talking. Just ignore him when he’s being too much."

Rosemary found this quite amusing. Was that something a grandson should say?

[Rose, are you busy right now?]

I heard you’re working. Are you trying to gain life experience or are you short on pocket money?]

[If you’re broke, you can ask Grandpa How much do you need? I can transfer you some money!]

Romeo found it hilarious that his usually serious grandpa actually used emoticons in his text, "He even learned how to text for you"

That’s a big change.

Rosemary leaned back in her seat and casually replied:[ I’m good, I just want to experience life. The summer vacation is too long: I need something to do]

[If you’re bored, you can come and visit me! I can take you around the world! Or do you want to stay in Summerfield? There are many sights to see in Summerfield, I can show you around]

Just as Rosemary was about to reply, Romeo snatched her phone away. He pressed the screen and said excitedly, "Grandpa, you’re cramping our style."

Phillip was surprised to find out that his grandson and Rosemary were together. He was thrilled, quickly put away his phone, and stopped intruding on them,

It seemed that their relationship was progressing nicely.

"What time are we picking up Grandpa tomorrow?" Rosemary asked.

"You decide," Romeo returned her phone and gently stroked her hand, "I’m all yours."

"Shall we go after lunch?"

She had to work in the afternoon and didn’t want Grandpa to wait too long.

"Sure"

Romeo gently stroked her slender fingers, each one was beautiful, and even her nails were neatly trimmed.

It was like this girl had some sort of magic, once he held her hand, he didn’t want to let go.

Phillip, dressed neatly and full of energy, was waiting for Rosemary.

The butler entered again, helplessly saying, "Sir, two CEOs, and their families have come to visit you.Also, two rich gentlemen have brought their daughters." "No, no, no!" The only person Phillip wanted to see was Rosemary, not these people.

Their intentions were clear, weren’t they just trying to marry their daughters or granddaughters into the McMillian family?

How could he not see through that!

"Then I’ll find a polite way to turn them down, saying you’re still resting"

"Tell them, I’m not seeing anyone today!"

Unless it’s Rosemary.

Phillip thought for a moment, adding, "Don’t let them block the door, don’t block Rosemary’s way"

"Alright," Although Brodie verbally agreed, he still found an excuse to politely turn away the people at the door

Until noon, the people waiting outside the hospital room changed round after round, all coming to visit Phillip.

Whether they were acquaintances or strangers, they all filled the long comidor

Phillip had been waiting, but Rosemary was a no–show, and he was feeling peckish.

"Sir." The butler entered again.

Phillip McMillian perked up instantly, asking with anticipation, "Has Rosemary arved?"

Where was she? Why can’t he see her?

He looked outside, only to see the backs of a few bodyguards.

They stood like a wall and through the gaps between them, he could see a crowd waiting outside.

Phillip’s spirits dropped immediately

"Those are some small companies you’ve probably never heard of. They must’ve heard you’re hem resting so they came to pay their respects"

"I already said I don’t want to see them!" Phillip was irked by these people, "Did Romeo say when he’s coming?"

was already half past twelve and he was nowhere to be seen!

"The young master went for lunch with the madam. They’ll come after they finish"

Brodie saw that Phillip hadn’t touched the delicious food in front of him and couldn’t help but advise,

"Sir, why don’t you eat something first? The young master and madam may take a while"

Those two young folks, nobody knew when they would arrive.

"Romeo even left me behind to go out for a meal!" Phillip felt neglected, mumbling to himself, "Left me all alone here."

Outside.

Olga, in her ten–centimeter heels, was in pain from standing for so long.

She was tired and hungry, trying to butter up the emotionless bodyguards, "Gentlemen, we’ve been waiting here for an hour! It’s lunchtime, and the meal prepared for the Sir is getting cold, can we go in and see him?"

"Madam Mrs. Panter, standing next to her, sneered at the food bag in her hand, "Would Mr. Phillip be eating a lunch of this standard?"

After saying that, she turned to the bodyguards, "Gentlemen, can we go in now? You must’ve heard of the Panter family. Look at these food boxes we’ve brought, so high–class"

Indeed, the reputation of the restaurant Mrs. Panter ordered from far exceeded the one Olga chose.

Seeing that others’ lunches were better, Olga took out several envelopes she had prepared and pushed them into the guards hands.

"This is for you guys, we hope you’ll let us in to see the Sir, Olga said with a smile, she didn’t care about dignity anymore, "When we’re better off in the future, we won’t forget you"

Mrs. Panter, seeing Olga pulling this trick, immediately took out several bank cards from her bag.

"Gentlemen, paper envelopes can’t hold much, but our bank cards are different"

"Mrs. Panter, what are you trying to do?"

"Mrs. Olga, don’t try to cozy up to me, the marriage isn’t set in stone yet!"

"Mrs. Panter, this engagement was decided by the elders of our two families, are you planning to back out now?"

"If the elders of my family knew that your biological daughter was raised by a janitor, I’m sure they would strongly oppose this marriage"

"How can you say something like that"

As they spoke, they kept stuffing things into the bodyguards’ hands, neither of them willing to back down.

The bodyguards remained unmoved, the envelopes and bank cards stuffed into their hands all fell to the ground

Attlee personally picked them up and forcefully stuffed the envelopes into the bodyguards pockets,

"Gentlemen, don’t be shy..."

One of the bodyguards noticed the gifts Attlee was holding in one hand.
