Devoted Love:The Billionaire's Precious Wife
Chapter 153

Chapter 153: Chapter 153

James felt like he was stuck between a rock and a hard place, eventually giving in and deciding to write a small digital sum later–it was like he had been charged a fee.

Romeo whipped out his phone and said, "I’ve got to find out where I can get some Cinnamomum tenuis."

"Mr McMillan, why would you need that?" Carl was puzzled.

Romeo’s gaze turned serious. "It’s for my Grandma’s illness" Carl immediately started looking

The next morning, he called Romeo and asked, "Mr. McMillan, I finally got a lead, Cinnamomum tenuis has been spotted in the triangular zone before, but that place is a real danger zone. We’ve got contacts

there, but it’s risky as hell, I’d advise against it."

Romeo’s expression darkened further. Triangular zone? It’s there?

"Mr McMillan, what if it’s just a wild goose chase? How about we look for alternative medicine, something that can replace Cinnamomum tenuis?" "We’re running out of time."

Trying out different options blindly–who knew how long that would take? They might as well get their hands on Cinnamomum tenuis; at least that could save his Granny.

"Set it up, we’re heading to the triangular zone."

"Wait, what?" Carl was taken aback; he didn’t expect Mr. McMillan to actually consider going there. "Is Shirley’s condition worsening?"

"Yes, we don’t have much time left."

Hearing this, Carl finally understood why Mr. McMillan wanted to go there.

On the way to drop off Rosemary at work, Romeo noticed the injury on her right wrist had not only not healed but seemed to have gotten worse. He asked worriedly, "What happened?"

He had been applying the best medicine daily; it was impossible for it to have no effect.

"Have you been using your hand a lot lately? Playing the piano? Or drafting designs?"

Rosemary pulled back her hand, casually replying, "Just been a bit busy at work."

In reality, she had been working all night at Villa Cascada, tweaking the medicine to help Granny.

Indeed, she had overused her hand.

"Don’t you dare overwork yourself." Romeo tenderly wiped her hand and said, "I have to go abroad for a couple of days. When I return, I hope your hand will be all healed up, okay?"

"Sure." Rosemary didn’t expect him to have to leave the country. She had been wondering how she would make up an excuse to go to the triangular zone.

Looked like an opportunity had just presented itself.

"Don’t worry, I will take good care of myself."

Hearing her say this and looking at her expression, Romeo raised an eyebrow and said, "Why do I get the feeling that you’re a tad too happy about this?"

He’s leaving, and she’s happy? Was he imagining things?

"You’re mistaken." Rosemary responded nonchalantly, "I’m not happy."

Was that so?

Just now, her lips were definitely curved into a smile.

Arriving at the office door, Romeo packed up the medicine and handed it to her, saying, "Just like before, apply it once in the morning and once at night. First, apply this one, then this one. Try not to get it wet."

"Got it."

Romeo hugged her reluctantly for a while, gave her a long kiss, then let her go, saying, "Wait for me."

"Mhm." After Rosemary got off the car and waited for his car to drive off, she pulled out her phone and said, "Pick me up at the coffee shop next to Collins Fashion Group."

"Sure."

"Get the plane ready at Villa Cascada; I’m going to the triangular zone."

"Triangular zone?" The person on the other end of the line asked in surprise, "You’re finally going to take matters into your own hands and deal with those troublemakers? Fantastic!"

With Rosemary there, who would dare act high and mighty?

Those people hadn’t seen Rosemary’s true capabilities. If they had, they’d probably be scared shitless.

Rosemary headed toward the café while calling home, "Mom, one of my friends is in a pickle, I need to check on her. Yeah, it’s kind of serious; she’s overseas; I might have to be away for a couple of days."

After hanging up, Rosemary dialed Dean and said, "I’ve got some stuff to deal with these two days, if anyone at the company asks, just say I’m in a meeting; don’t let them know I’m out."

It was the first time Dean heard Rosemary couldn’t make it to work. He quickly responded, "No problem, but where are you going?"

He wanted to know more, but the call ended before he could ask

That’s just Rosemary, always quick and decisive, never one for small talk.

Meanwhile, a luxurious private jet was parked on top of a mountain.

Four bodyguards stood respectfully to one side.

Jack had a bunch of gear on him, and Jones was loaded with bullets. Seeing Rosemary, they hurried over.

"You finally showed up! Why the sudden trip to the triangular zone?"

Before Jones could finish his question, he was shot down by, Jack "Isn’t it obvious? That’s one of Ms.Rose’s territories, too! We’re going to show those punks what we’re made of!"

Isn’t that the righteous thing to do?

"Keep an eye out for Cinnamomum tenuis." Rosemary ascended the plane’s stairs; her aura felt strong,and her back view. was super cool. "Cinnamomum tenuis?" Jack was taken aback, the last time they dealt with it still fresh in his mind: "Miss, who are we saving this time?" Rosemary didn’t hesitate to reveal

"Shirley."

Romeo’s grandmother?

It felt like Jack was looking at a mountain of gold, beckoning him, "They must be paying a hefty fee, right?"

To make Rosemary risk her life for this again, it must be at least a few tens of millions of dollars, right?

"None"

None?" Jack and Jones looked at each other in disbelief. So, the boss was doing all this for no money?

Just hustling for nothing?

What was Rosemary doing this for then?

For Romeo’s good looks? Or was she influenced by something Romeo said?

"Take off." Rosemary’s voice carried a hint of chill.

Jack and Jones felt a silent sympathy for Romeo, dealing with such a frosty Miss every day must be complicated.

Was he as stressed as they were?

After an eight–hour flight, Rosemary took a nap on the plane. When she woke up, she changed into a super cool outfit, put on a baseball cap, and transformed into a cool chick.

"Miss, there’s a virus going around over there, it’s called virus X3."

Supposedly, it’s airborne, and those infected would suffer from full–body necrosis and die in pain.

The virus originated at a famous research institute in the triangular zone, and there is no known cure yet.

Jack handed Rosemary a black mask and said, "A few of our brothers got infected too."

After putting on the mask, Rosemary’s clear and bright eyes shone even more, making her even more attractive. "I’ll take a look when I get back."

"Okay" Jack stole a glance at the Miss’s profile and said, "If the Miss was a guy, she would have girls.flocking."

"Miss is so pretty, Romeo really lucked out."

Just as their plane entered the triangular zone and before the pilot had a chance to activate the auto–defense system, a shell hit their tail wing. The plane instantly lost balance and started to spin wildly in

the air.

The shrill alarm blared inside the cabin.
