Devoted Love:The Billionaire's Precious Wife
Chapter 239

Chapter 239: Chapter 239

After Attlee had paid the compensation, those relatives still wanted to argue with a few waiters about who was right or wrong. Attlee hurriedly pulled them away.

"Attlee, you’re really too kind, letting these unfriendly folks step all over you."

"Even though we, the Harris family, are loaded, we can’t let them act so recklessly!"

"If you can’t confront them because of your status as a tycoon, let me handle it! I can totally deal with these people!"

Attlee was extremely embarrassed. He put his hands together and pleaded in a soft voice, "I invited you all for dinner today, firstly to celebrate Yoli’s good grades and secondly to introduce her fiancé to you in advance. He’s still here. Could you give me a break and stop causing a scene?"

Everyone suddenly remembered Zachary’s existence and instinctively looked at him.

Zachary was sitting alone at the table, drinking red wine. Thinking about how expensive tonight’s dinner was made him feel upset.

Meanwhile, Yolanda was captivated by two handsome men. Even though she didn’t know their names, one glance at them filled her mind with images of them. One looked like the celebrity David, and the other was also breathtakingly handsome; she couldn’t help but want to get to know them.

She pretended to go to the restroom and found that there were people guarding all the elevators and even the fire stairwell.

With no other options, she had to move toward the spiral staircase on the other side.

There was no one guarding this staircase, and just as she was about to step on the first step, a waiter appeared and stopped her.

"Sorry, miss, you can’t go up there."

Yolanda retracted her foot, maintaining a decent smile, and calmly said, "I’m looking for the restroom."

"The restroom is 100 meters to the left."

Yolanda kept her elegant smile and gently asked, "Can I ask, is David having dinner here today?"

"Sorry, we can’t reveal the privacy of the guests."

"Can you answer another question for me? A handsome man went upstairs just now; he looks a lot like my friend. Can you tell me his name? If it’s my friend, I’ll go up and say hi."

The waiter looked at her, thinking to himself, ’He’s heard this excuse many times.’

’What? She failed to get close to David, so now she’s trying to get close to their boss? This girl was too much!’

Thinking this, the waiter still calmly said, "Sorry, miss, I can’t accommodate your request."

Yolanda glanced in the direction of the upper floor, not knowing when that handsome man would come down. If she could know his identity, that would be great.

If not, if she could attract David’s attention, whether it was by becoming David’s girlfriend or entering the entertainment industry in the future, it would be all good and no harm!

After grabbing a bite, Alma noticed Serena was still missing. She put on a concerned face and said, "Serena hasn’t come back; I’ll go check on her."

She got up and headed towards the restroom, which was about fifty yards from the dining area.

Reaching the restroom door, she knocked and sweetly called out, "Silly sis, are you okay in there?"

The restroom door was flung open angrily, and Serena splashed all the water from her hands onto Alma’s face.

Although Alma managed to block some of it with her hand, some water still got onto her makeup.

"You meanie!" Serena, after splashing the water, was ready to slap Alma hard!

But Alma effortlessly caught her wrist and said, "You really think you’re some kind of princess?"

She gave a cold laugh and arrogantly said, "If it wasn’t for Auntie’s pity, you’d be on the streets like a homeless person by now! You can’t even afford tonight’s dinner, let alone bossing me around!"

"You!" Serena was so angry that she was grinding her teeth but couldn’t find the words to retort. Her face turned red with anger!

"Do you really think the Collins family would side with you, an outsider, over one of their own?" Alma looked at her with a gleeful smile, as if mocking her lowly status.

Martha, who came out of the restroom with Serena’s dress, couldn’t help but say, "Ms. Alma, please let go; you’re hurting Serena!"

Before Alma could reply, Martha added with a stern face, "Otherwise, I’ll have to record this and show it to the master and mistress."

"You’re really loyal to her!" Alma let go disdainfully, brushing off her hands as if touching Serena was a dirty act.

Serena saw all this and was furious.

"Serena, I’ll settle our scores slowly. Don’t leave this house too soon, or it won’t be fun!"

As Alma was about to enter the restroom, she deliberately bumped into Martha’s shoulder and glared at her. "And you!"

Old grudges and new hatred—it’s all going to be settled!

"Serena, let’s go eat first." Martha, holding the dress, followed Serena and calmly reminded her, "Tonight’s dinner is about Ms. Rose, so let’s not cause any more trouble. It would leave a bad impression on the master and mistress, who would think you’re deliberately ruining Ms. Rose’s party. There will be plenty of chances to get back at her later."

"Even she dares to bully me now!" Serena was very angry. "Not to mention the others in the Collins family! I can tell she has a grudge against Rosemary, but she wouldn’t dare bully Rosemary in front of so many people! Why only bully me?"

"Serena, you should know the difference between you and Ms. Rose. Of course people will pick on the weaker one!"

Martha’s words made Serena even more upset. Rosemary, that woman, always had all the advantages.

If she hadn’t suddenly returned, Alma wouldn’t have the courage to be so arrogant!

After a while, she returned to her seat. Kenneth, Louisa, and David all immediately showed concern.

Considering the bigger picture, she just said, "I’m fine," and then sneakily glanced at Romeo.

Romeo was whispering something to Rosemary with his head down.

Rosemary glared at him, a fake annoyance on her face. Romeo just gave a small smile, a doting expression that was envy–inducing.

’That’s Romeo, and Rosemary actually dared to glare at him like that!’

’More importantly, he actually smiled, as if he were indulging Rosemary’s arrogance!’

’Why? Why would such a great guy be charmed by Rosemary?’

Just then, Alma came back.
