Chapter 305: Chapter 305

"You’re the best gift ever," Romeo said, touching her face to comfort her. "My grandma will be over the moon to see you."

"But I can’t just show up empty-handed," Rosemary said, inquiring, "What did your grandma like most?" She had to come up with something.

"Miss Rose, Shirley McMillian loved flowers, paintings, and playing chess. She’s even heard your music," Carl informed.

Rosemary looked skeptical.

"It’s true! You can ask Mr. McMillian if you don’t believe me."

"That’s right," Romeo said gently. "My grandma did listen to your music before, and she loved it."

So, all she had to do was play a few tunes for Shirley?

If Shirley liked chess, Rosemary did have a top-notch chess set made of gold. Even the chessboard was worth a fortune, but it was too late to have it delivered now.

"Didn’t you give my grandma a gold bracelet before?" Romeo reminded her. "That bracelet is still on my grandma’s wrist, and you don’t need to prepare anything else. Just show up."

Finally, Rosemary decided to bring the chess set next time, persuaded by Romeo.

Before long, their car pulled up in front of Fairfield Manor.

Romeo, leading Rosemary by the hand, walked through the front door, with Brodie showing the way.

"Shirley just woke up, and she’ll be thrilled to see you guys!" Brodie couldn’t contain his joy.

Who would’ve thought that not only would Shirley wake up, but she could also engage in simple conversations? It was beyond everyone’s expectations!

And all of it was thanks to Rosemary!

In Phillip’s bedroom, the elegant Grandma Shirley sat on the bed, sipping soup fed by Phillip.

"Grandpa, Grandma," Romeo and Rosemary chimed in, drawing the attention of the elderly couple.

"Rose’s here! Darling, this is Rose I’ve told you about! Rosemary Collins! Kenneth Collins’s daughter!" Phillip put down the bowl, hurriedly inviting Rosemary to sit, completely ignoring Romeo.

Romeo was used to it. He held Rosemary’s hand and sat down by the bedside.

The kind lady, dressed neatly, was glowing and radiating an aura of nobility.

She looked at Romeo with a warm smile and said, "My grandson’s grown taller, matured, and is more steady."

Her voice was pleasant and soothing, and her presence was commanding.

"Darling, I was having a hard time getting hold of this well-known doctor, Dr. Bell. After pulling strings, I finally managed to get him. Guess what, Dr. Bell turned out to be Rose! How coincidental." Phillip started laughing, then continued, "Before I found Dr. Bell, I heard from Carl that Rose, after hearing about your condition, had already been searching for a cure on her own! Carl said that the place she went to was extremely dangerous. A slip could cost her life."

But she didn’t back down. She could’ve sent someone else or chosen to ignore Grandma Shirley, but she didn’t.

"Later, she found the medicine and worked hard to prepare it, just to save you. If she hadn’t gone there, if Romeo and Carl hadn’t happened to spot her, we might still be in the dark, not knowing that she had been silently doing so much behind the scenes!"

She didn’t wait for anyone to ask. She just jumped right in to help. No showing off, no trying to polish her image.

Rosemary blushed a little at Phillip’s praise. "I was just giving it a shot. I wasn’t sure it would work. It was mainly thanks to Grandma Shirley’s strong constitution that she could handle the effects of the medicine."

Grannie Grace, on the other hand, was as fragile as paper.

Thinking of Grannie Grace, Rosemary’s eyes dimmed a bit. Romeo, noticing this, squeezed her hand, knowing she was missing Grannie Grace. He caressed her hand with his thumb to comfort her.

Rosemary quickly recovered, lifting her eyes to say, "The main thing was that Grandpa Phillip trusted me and backed me all the way."

Phillip had said that even if there were only a one percent chance, he would back Rosemary all the way. It was Phillip’s faith and trust that made today’s miracle possible.

Even though Rosemary was 80% sure then, there was still 20% uncertainty, which couldn’t be ignored. Luckily, all the hurdles were behind them, and Grandma Shirley was here with them, listening to their conversation.

"The gold necklace you’re wearing was a gift from Rose." Phillip took Grandma Shirley’s hand and said with a smile, "And the crown necklace you gave to Rose. Rose, are you wearing it today?"

"I am." Rosemary pulled out the necklace from her collar.

Romeo added, "Rose wears it every day."

Grandma Shirley looked at the beautiful crown necklace and suddenly said, "Take it off."

Phillip and Romeo thought they had heard wrong!

"Grandma?" Romeo was confused. Was Grandma unhappy with Rose?

"Dear, isn’t this necklace supposed to be given to our grandson’s wife?" Phillip was also puzzled. Had her mental clarity faltered again, thinking someone had stolen her necklace?

Romeo held Rosemary’s hand tighter and said, "Grandma, Rosemary is the love of my life. I will only marry her."

"I said, take it off." Grandma Shirley seemed to use all her strength to say this.

Rosemary, seeing the look in Grandma Shirley’s eyes, removed the necklace and handed it back.

Romeo’s eyes deepened, and Phillip was in disbelief as Grandma Shirley took the necklace.

"I want to put it on for you myself." Grandma Shirley’s voice was filled with tenderness and affection.

The tension between Phillip and Romeo instantly disappeared.

"Come here."

Rosemary had already figured out her intention, obediently moved closer, and knelt down.

She knew Grandma Shirley couldn’t express herself as fluently as normal people, but it would get better with time.

"You scared me." Phillip patted his chest, wondering how anyone could not be satisfied with such a wonderful girl like Rose. Turned out, she just wanted to put it on herself.

Grandma Shirley had just recovered. Her hands and feet weren’t very agile, and she tried to put the necklace on several times without success.

"My hands aren’t as nimble anymore." Despite Grandma Shirley’s best efforts to help Rosemary wear this significant necklace, the clasp wasn’t easy to fasten.

Rosemary didn’t show any impatience. "It’s okay, take your time. We’re not in a hurry."

"I’m afraid you’ll tire from squatting for so long."
