Devoted Love:The Billionaire's Precious Wife
Chapter 181

Chapter 181: Chapter 181

"There is no need to be so formal." Rosemary hadn’t expected him to prepare gifts for Grandpa and Grandma. Come to think of it, since they met, she hadn’t given him a gift yet. It’s high time she thought

about what to give him.

"I heard that the university entrance exam results are out tomorrow." Romeo looked at her with concern. "Are you nervous?"

Rosemary was confused. Why was his question the same as her brother’s?

"I’m fine."

"Do you have a university preference?" Romeo asked gently. "Any university you like, you can get in."

Rosemary gave a faint smile. "Even if my scores aren’t good enough?"

"Among all universities, it’s all about whether you like them or not. Scores aren’t that important."

Did he mean to pull some strings for her?

"Let’s talk about it tomorrow."Rosemary didn’t have a specific university in mind, but remembering what Grandpa Harris said, she might choose where he was. Though the old man did love to nag.

A while later, Romeo dropped her off at the company door..

Just as Rosemary entered the gate, Dean rushed over to report; "Ms. Rose, your brother is here!"

"Brother?"

"There’s an emergency meeting in ten minutes. All deputy–level and above employees are to attend, including you."

"Where is he now?"

"He’s already waiting in the conference room!"

Rosemary handed the things in her hands to Dean to take to her office while she headed to the conference room. Many employees were ahead of her, rushing off, huddled in groups of three or five, discussing.

"I didn’t expect Mr. Collins to personally visit our company!"

"I just bumped into him downstairs. So handsome! His face is good–looking no matter how you look at it!"

"I wonder what kind of girl is worthy of him."

"Mr. Collins has such a strong presence; I think only someone like Ms. Rose can handle him, Ms.Rose."

They walked into the elevator, about to press the close door button, but found Rosemary was about to step in. They quickly shut their mouths and greeted Rosemary.

"It’s okay, carry on." Rosemary knew there’d be some gossip among the staff. She stepped into the elevator and pressed the.close door button.

Most of the staff held their breath due to her presence, too scared to speak.

"Why did you stop talking?" Rosemary wanted to hear their chit–chat.

"Ms. Rose." One female employee gathered the courage to ask, "Do you think Mr. Collins is handsome?"

Asking if her brother was handsome?

Rosemary answered without hesitation, "Not bad."

"Is he your ideal type?" The female employee continued, "If Mr. Collins pursued you, would you accept him? Would you be with him?"

Rosemary was shocked.

"No."

How could she possibly be with her own brother?

"Huh? Why not?" The other employees were puzzled and asked, "There aren’t many young,handsome, and rich men like Mr. Collins in the world, right?"

"Yes, there are." Rosemary answered without hesitation.

"Huh? There are? Who?" Several employees didn’t know who she was talking about when she asked,

"Ms. Rose, do you have a boyfriend?"

"Ms. Rose is still so young; what are you guys thinking?"

"Absolutely right! Even if Ms. Rose really has a boyfriend, he must be a top–notch guy!"

"Ms. Rose, do you know why Mr. Collins suddenly came for a visit? Is there something important going on? He’s not planning to make cuts, is he?"

"Ah? No way, I’m scared stiff of layoffs."

The elevator doors dinged open, and several employees hurriedly followed Rosemary, asking anxiously,

"Ms. Rose, is Mr. Collins really going to make cuts? I heard he laid off thousands at the M Country branch last month!"

"Oh my, I feel like I could be next." One of the employees mustered up the courage to grab Rosemary’s clothes, saying anxiously, "Ms. Rose, if Mr. Collins fires me, you’ve got to have my back!"

"And mine too!"

"What if it’s me getting the chop?" Rosemary teased them with a smirk.

"What?" The employees were all stunned. "If Mr. Collins dares to fire you, we’ll go on strike!"

Rosemary was somewhat surprised and asked with a smirk, "Really?"

"Of course! Without you, the company cannot have this achievement, and so do us!"

"Ms. Rose, if you get fired, wherever you go, we’ll follow!"

"I’m not joking or brown–nosing. We all see how capable you are. If Mr. Collins fires you, it just shows he’s blind!"

"The future of the company depends on you!"

"Yes, exactly!"

Rosemary’s lips curled into a smile, not expecting to be held in such high esteem by these employees.

She knocked on the conference room door, and a familiar voice came from inside.

""Come in."

Several employees followed Rosemary in, and upon seeing Hunter, they all greeted him, "Good morning,Mr. Collins!"

Rosemary also followed with her greetings.

"Come sit by me." Hunter patted the seat next to him, looking warmly at Rosemary.

Seeing this, everyone thought they were seeing things. Why was Mr. Collins being so friendly to Ms.Rose? Surely he wouldn’t fire her, right?

Rosemary sat beside Hunter, who said, "I’m just here to check in. Everyone, relax!"

He cast his gaze over everyone, but it felt as if he was speaking directly to Rosemary.

Upon hearing this, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. As long as there weren’t layoffs!

After a while, once everyone was present, Hunter first asked about the company’s recent situation.

Several managers mentioned Rosemary.

"Mr. Collins, I don’t know if you’ve heard about the recent issues at the company. If it weren’t for Ms.Rose, we would have been toast!"

"If it wasn’t for Ms. Rose lowering herself to accompany me to the design competition, I wouldn’t have won the championship, and the company wouldn’t have gotten ahead. In essence, Ms. Rose is our hero!"

The one speaking was Molly, who had recently been promoted to design department manager. She looked at Hunter and said very seriously, "Since Mr. Collins is here, I request that headquarters reward Ms. Rose!"

"Absolutely!"

"I agree! Ms. Rose has done so much for the company; she deserves a reward."

Hunter scanned everyone in the room and asked, "If you all agree, then what should we reward her with?"

"I think what working people crave most are high pay and vacations! I heard Ms. Rose has already raised our salaries; I hope she can get paid vacation too!"

"This is a good suggestion; we all agree!"

Everyone present expressed their approval.

Hunter didn’t expect his sister to have such influence in the company. He softened his expression. "I heard her college entrance exam results will be released soon."

"Ah? Ms. Rose is really still in high school, huh?"

"Once the college entrance exam results come out, will Ms. Rose choose to go to college and not come to the company anymore?"

"No way, Ms. Rose, we can’t bear to lose you."
