Devoted Love:The Billionaire's Precious Wife -
Chapter 191
Chapter 191: Chapter 191
"Could you accept her for our parents and brother’s sake, just like she accepted you?"
Hunter saw her deep in thought, and gave her a light pat on the head, "Think about what I’ve said before you sleep tonight. I hope to see some changes when I come
back."
Hunter had a very regular schedule, with only three minutes left before his bedtime. He stood up, not changing his habits for anyone.
Before he left, he specifically said, "If I were you, I would cherish everything in front of me instead of waiting until it’s gone to feel regret."
Serena looked at him in surprise.
"Goodnight." Hunter walked away, leaving the balcony.
Seeing Hunter leave, Martha, hiding in the shadows, quickly appeared, "Serena, are you okay?"
From the moment Hunter had come to find Serena, she had quietly followed!
She thought Hunter would say some sweet words to Serena or do something to pamper her, but instead,his words seemed like a warning!!
"Hunter is warning you if you can’t get along well with Rosemary, you might be ostracized by the family and forced to leave."
Tears fell from Serena’s eyes, "But my brother is right. This home–was–never mine. The love from my parents and brothers, the comfortable life, the care from the servants, none belonged to me! I’ve been living Rosemary’s life for the past 18 years!"
"Serena, you can’t think like that." Martha was anxious and quickly looked around to make sure no one was around before saying, "It was the lady who made the mistake picked up the wrong child. How can you blame yourself? You also lost 18 years of being loved by your biological parents. You also have losses!"
Serena spoke somewhat dazedly, "Martha, do you think, if I really treat Rosemary as my own sister, will they still treat me the same? I mean mom and dad and my brothers."
"Of course not!" Martha said anxiously, "Serena, how can you be so naive! You’re confused by a few words from Hunter! If Hunter really saw you as his sister, he wouldn’t have warned you like this tonight!"
"But I think what my brother said makes sense." It sounded hurtful, but it was the truth.
"Do you remember what Hunter said last? He was hinting that if you’re not content, you will soon lose everything!"
Martha was getting impatient, "Serena, listen to me, while you still have the ability and connections.
While they still have feelings for you, either get rid of Rosemary, or strive for the greatest benefits of the Collins family, strive to become the most influential person in the world, don’t naively try to get along well with Rosemary, it’s the most useless move!"
Serena looked up, wavering again.
"I’ve watched you grow up like you’re my own child. I would never harm you!" Martha was so anxious she was about to cry, "I’m really doing this for your own good, Serena, don’t let Hunter deceive you!"
"Martha, do you have your own children?" Serena suddenly asked.
Martha was a bit puzzled, didn’t understand what Serena meant, and after a while, she answered, "I once had a child."
"Once?" Serena asked in surprise.
"That was a long time ago when I just gave birth. I heard that being a nanny in the city could make a lot of money, so I wanted to try it. Because my husband’s leg was not good, he could only stay in the village care for the elderly and our child at home. I never expected a flood that year, and my husband, child, and the child’s grandparents all passed away."
Serena was moved, "I’m sorry, I shouldn’t have brought up your past."
She was just curious. Over the past eighteen years, she never once heard Martha mention her family back home, and Martha never seemed to plan on going back for the holidays.
"Our village was full of kin," Martha shared, "and we suffered heavy losses because of the flood that year."
Serena nodded, "If I ever make it big, I won’t forget you."
"Thanks, Serena!" Martha showered her with words of gratitude.
Rosemary worked until half past eleven in the evening. After sorting out the medication, she quickly headed home.
As soon as she entered, she could feel the hostile gaze from upstairs, as if someone wanted to tear her apart.
She looked up and saw a silhouette hiding behind the window, spying on her.
The window belonged to Serena’s room.
Perhaps Serena didn’t realize that the light was casting a long shadow of hers on the curtain.
Rosemary shrugged it off and was about to enter the living room when she heard her parents’ conversation.
"Where’s Rose? Is she in danger? Should we call and check on her?" Kenneth Collins’s voice echoed through the room. "It’s late, and I can’t help but worry about her being out alone."
"It’s not midnight yet. Don’t rush her and put pressure on her," Louisa yawned sleepily. "Let’s wait a little longer. Rose has never been later than midnight, no matter how late she works."
"Really?" Kenneth yawned, "Okay, I’ll wait a bit more."
Hearing this, Rosemary felt a warmth in her heart. She changed into her slippers and walked in, "Mom, Dad, I’m home."
Kenneth and Louisa immediately perked up and went to greet her.
"Rose, you’re finally back. Where have you been?" Kenneth was about to ask more when he was stopped by Louisa.
"Are you interrogating her? Why do you need to know everything? She’s grown up. She can make her own decisions."
"Right right. I’m just worrying too much," Kenneth admitted.
Rosemary laughed, "I went to see the doctor earlier. She’s leaving the country tonight to treat patients elsewhere. She gave me these medicines before she left and assured me they would work."
Louisa nodded in understanding, "Of course, she’s a renowned doctor. Many people would ask for her help. It’s not possible for her to drop everything and come to see your grandparents."
"Exactly. Rose knows some medical stuff too. She explained the situation to the doctor, and the doctor prescribed it accordingly. I trust it will work out," Kenneth didn’t want to put more pressure on Rose.
"She gave me these medications for the first three days. There are six bottles, one for the morning and one for the evening. Just mix it with warm water," Rosemary/ handed over a small bag. "She will mail the rest of the medicines to me. Don’t worry about running out."
"Good job, Rose," Louisa quickly said. "I’ve prepared some late–night snacks for you. Go eat something first. Oh, did you have enough money for the fee? Do we need to add more?"
"No need. She didn’t charge much," Rosemary smiled. "I’m going to shower first, and then I’ll come down to eat. You guys rest first."
"Sure, just remember to eat!"
