Devoted Love:The Billionaire's Precious Wife
Chapter 199

Chapter 199: Chapter 199

The device was a big ticket item that the principal splurged on just to lure Rosemary into applying for his school!

He shelled out five hundred million dollars!

The device was perched in his school, with only two of its kind worldwide, one in the National Research Institute of M Country and the other in his school!

This device could be a game changer, bringing about colossal transformations in drug research!

Rosemary gave a smile. The principal sure had some tricks up his sleeve, knowing exactly what she needed.

"The principal mentioned, apart from the H30, he’s also stocked up on other rare equipment in the school lab for you to use whenever you fancy! Plus, he’s thrown In another deal"

Everyone was all ears. What was the deal this time? Rosemary seemed quite keen on the previous one.

"He’s saying it’s cool if you want to skip classes and do your own research. The school won’t give you hard time."

In other words, she can come and go as she please. Feel like attending classes, go ahead. Don’t feel like it, no sweat. She’d still get full attendance at the end of the

term

Such a sweet deal. It’s like every student’s dream come true!

Other teachers were grumbling about how crafty this move was. If students didn’t attend classes and went off gallivanting, what would they learn?

If the top student went there, they’d definitely slack off!

This deal was a total waste of such a bright talent!

"I choose Westerly College." As soon as Rosemary said this, the other teachers sighed in disappointment and left shortly after.

The teacher from Westerly College was dumbfounded. The principal had quite the foresight to predict that Rosemary would apply to their school. His face was flushed with excitement, and he was all fired up!

He chatted non–stop with Rosemary and kept reminding her to spell the school name correctly when she applied before he left.

Once the teacher from Westerly College left, Serena’s face turned sour. She didn’t expect Rosemary to.be so popular, let alone that she was daft enough to apply to Westerly College!

Kenneth and Louisa were about to shower their daughter with praise, but Edith beat them to it.

"Ms. Rose, the internet was down at home just now. Nothing to do, so I bet with Martha!"

Louisa’s attention was quickly diverted, "What bet?"

Rosemary was also surprised and looked at her.

"Martha thought Serena had a better chance of coming first, but I thought it would be Ms. Rose. The loser has to do all the housework today!"

"So, you won?" Louisa smiled, "Martha, it looks like you’ve got your work cut out for you today."

"Not at all." Martha gritted her teeth inwardly as she exchanged glances with Edith.

Edith gave her a smug look and said, "Hang on a sec, Ms. Rose, I’ve got something to fetch."

Everyone was clueless about what she was up to until she came back with a pair of shoes and bent down to put them on Rosemary.

Rosemary was puzzled.

"Ms. Rose, you probably didn’t know. Someone just said if you came first, she would kneel down to shine your shoes!"

Edith looked at Martha with a triumphant smile, "Now that the shoes are here, you might as well help Ms. Rose put them on before you start shining them."

Martha was taken aback that Edith would bring this up. As a nanny, she had a higher status than the other servants, but now, she had to shine shoes for Rosemary in front of all the servants.

How was she supposed to hold onto her dignity?

"You were all cocksure when you made the bet. Now you’re not gonna try to weasel out of it, are you?

Edith said with feigned boredom. "If that’s the case, it’d be such a killjoy We won’t be betting with you anymore"

"You guys bet that big?" Louisa didn’t give a hoot, thinking they were just joking around. They’ve had little wagers among the servants before, all for fun.

"Martha, you always play favourites with Serena Did you think about the consequences of making such a big bet?" Louisa chuckled. "Rosemary and Serena are both daughters of this house. You can’t be biased. You going to be fair to everyone!"

Martha smiled awkwardly, "Alright, I’ll go get the cloth now, Ms Rose. Please wait a moment"

When she turned around, she was seething inside, muttering under her breath about what a chatterbox

Edith was so annoying!

Rosemary raised an eyebrow slightly If this servant wanted to shine shoes, she’d let her shine alright.

"Rose, why do you want to apply to Westerly College? I heard the teacher say earlier that the principal of Westerly College knows you. How does he know you’re interested in drug research and used lab equipment to attract you?" Kenneth, sitting on the sofa, asked curiously.

Before Rosemary could answer, Louisa jumped in. "Isn’t it obvious? Rose is into medicine and loves to research. When the principal discovered her interest, he used this to attract her Isn’t that normal?

Moreover, their whole school is medical. They definitely need a lot of medical equipment for research, not just for Rose."

"It’s just a pity, though, schools like Helgen College and Summerfield College."

Many students dream of getting into these two schools! But Rose actually chose to ditch them.

Louisa said, "The school that interests Rose is a good school! Although Helgen College and Summerfield College are awesome, their medical research is not as good as Westerly College. Rose’s

choice is pretty cool."

By this time, Martha had brought the cloth and was kneeling down to shine Rosemary’s shoes.

She had never had such an experience, feeling utterly humiliated!

"Thank you," Rosemary said with a smile, watching Martha.

Martha, holding back her anger, smiled back, "It’s my pleasure to serve you."

"Is it?" Edith laughed, "Ms. Rose is the best student in the country. It indeed is your honour. You’ll have to serve Ms. Rose more in the future!"

Martha was speechless.

Geez!

She talked too much!

Louisa’s kindly gaze fell on Rosemary. She didn’t take their banter seriously and continued, "Thankfully,Westerly College is in Summerfield, not far from us. Rose, do you want to live on campus or at home?"

Rosemary smiled faintly and replied, "I haven’t decided yet."

"Wherever you choose to live, come home on the weekends if you have time! Otherwise, I’ll miss you!"

Kenneth said this, then turned to Serena, "Serena, I haven’t asked you yet. Which school do you want to apply to?"

Serena felt incredibly aggrieved. Her parents had ignored her for a while, and now they suddenly remembered her.

Suppressing her inner grief, she said calmly, "The cut–off score for Summerfield College has been over 700 in the past. If I apply, I should have a good chance." Even though Summerfield College was the

school that Rosemary didn’t want to go`to, Westerly College was also the one she, Serena, wouldn’t touch with a ten–foot pole!!

"So you plan to apply to Summerfield College?" Kenneth said with a benevolent smile, "Summerfield College is great. It’s close to Westerly College. You two can look out for each other in the future."

Rosemary thought to herself "Why would I look out for her?"

Serena also thought "They make it sound like I need her to look out for me!!"

"Ms Rose, do you think the shoes I shined are clean?" Martha asked with a smile.
