Devoted Love:The Billionaire's Precious Wife

Chapter 309: Chapter 309

"This chess set looks pretty good, huh? Especially the board, all shiny and golden. Can a fake really be this good? I doubt it." Jessamyn clearly didn’t believe Rosemary’s words.

Suri also tried to help the Winters family out, "Rose, did you see a picture of this chess set online, and that’s how you spotted the difference? You can’t trust pictures on the internet, you know. The pixel quality can distort the real thing."

They should always trust their own eyes. Only what they saw with their own eyes was real!

Romeo, supporting Rosemary by her slender waist, said, "Jessamyn asked my fiancée for her opinion, and she just told the truth. She didn’t mean any offense. She’s right; this chess set does look ordinary. Can’t we accept the truth these days? Do we have to flatter her?"

His words not only made the Winters family uncomfortable but also embarrassed Jessamyn and Suri.

"Romeo, do you think so too?" Enid bit her lip. Clearly, Romeo was defending this girl and even calling her his fiancée, giving her a lot of credit!

What kind of tricks did this girl use?

"Find a new nickname." Romeo looked into Enid’s eyes and said indifferently, "We’ve only met a few times. We’re not close. You’re too familiar, and it can lead to misunderstandings."

Mr. Winters, seeing Romeo defend that girl time and time again, making his granddaughter uncomfortable, finally spoke.

"Enid knew that Shirley loves chess. She went through a lot of trouble and pulled many strings to get this. It’s a token of her respect for Shirley. Now that it’s being called a fake, it’s understandable that she’s upset. The Winters family wouldn’t deceive people with a fake, would we?"

Sitting at the head of the table, Shirley gave a graceful smile and said, "Whether this chess set is real or fake, it’s the thought that counts, Enid. But I can’t accept such an expensive gift. You should take it back."

After saying this, she closed the lid, and Brodie placed the gift on the table before Enid.

It was clear. She was expected to take it with her when she left.

"Rose, come over here." Shirley beckoned to Rosemary.

Rosemary was pulled to sit between her and Phillip. Shirley affectionately patted Rosemary’s hand, "I like kids who tell it like it is. I’ve seen too many people with ulterior motives over the years. I prefer someone like you!"

Her words made everyone else’s faces even more uncomfortable.

"Young people should be like this. It reminds me that I had the same character when I was young." Shirley said this and started laughing.

Sitting on the couch, Enid clearly wasn’t convinced, "Grandma Shirley, Ms. Rose hasn’t explained what’s fake about my chess set!"

If Rosemary can’t provide a specific reason today, she won’t let it go!

Originally, Shirley had diverted the topic, but now Enid brought it up again, making the atmosphere awkward similarly.

"Maybe Enid doesn’t understand how this chess set could be fake. Did Ms. Rose make a mistake, or does she not know how to tell the difference." Suri tried to help explain, "What Ms. Rose is questioning is not just the chess set, but also Enid’s respect for Shirley."

"You can question my things, but if you question my feelings for Shirley, that’s not okay!" Enid clearly wanted to vent, "Please, Ms. Rose, point out what’s fake about this chess set!"

Mr. Winters pretended to be generous and laughed, "Young people these days love to make a fuss. Let them sort it out. We adults can just sit back and enjoy the show. They’re still young, still full of energy. Come on, Phillip, Shirley, let’s continue drinking our coffee."

He didn’t stop his granddaughter but instead encouraged her to keep going. This was his extreme indulgence toward her.

Phillip was a bit upset. If it weren’t for the fact that Mr. Winters had once saved his son’s life, he would have asked them to leave. He wouldn’t let them stay here.

Just as Phillip was about to interject, Rosemary spoke.

"Grandpa Phillip, Grandma Shirley, you guys have some coffee." Rosemary handed the coffee to Phillip, then passed the water cup to Shirley, her tone soft. "Since Miss Enid insists on me explaining, I’ll tell her and clear up her doubts."

Seeing Rosemary’s attitude, Shirley was all smiles. "Good, you two have a good talk then. We adults won’t interfere."

When Enid heard that Shirley wouldn’t interfere, she was even more delighted. "Then please, Ms. Rose, explain in detail. We’re all ears."

Rosemary looked at her, her tone casual. "The reason I can tell this chess set is a fake is because I have the real one!"

With that, everyone was dumbfounded.

This girl’s got some nerve, lying so openly in front of so many people?

They all knew how valuable this chess set was.

They all knew about the previous collector, Mr. Eugene, his rotten temper, his arrogance. Even if Shirley herself offered to buy it at a high price, he might disagree.

Rosemary was just a young girl. What abilities did she have, and what resources, to make Mr. Eugene sell the chess set to her?

Enid looked at Rosemary, her eyes full of disdain. "Do you know how much this chess set costs?"

Looking at her clothes, none of them branded, it was apparent she couldn’t afford this chess set!

"My chess set can’t be fake! If you say you have the real one, bring it out for everyone to see!"

Just then, Rosemary’s phone vibrated a few times. Perfect timing!

"Alright, I’ll go get it now." Rosemary stood up and walked to the door.

Her subordinate handed her a box that looked incredibly valuable. He was puzzled. "Why are you so desperate for this? Is it just to impress the McMillian family people? You’ve changed!"

What magic had Romeo cast on her to make such a money-lover willingly give away such a valuable thing.

What’s more, he had to deliver it within ten minutes.

He was almost speeding to avoid getting a ticket.

"Go." Rosemary took the box and walked back without even a glance at him.

Her subordinate watched her cold back, his heart aching. He felt that she didn’t like him anymore, didn’t care how fast he was driving, whether he was tired, whether he was thirsty, just told him to leave.

"Young people these days don’t even feel ashamed to lie." Mr. Winters shook his head with a grin in the living room, obviously questioning Rosemary’s character. "The real thing can’t be with her."

He was waiting to see what she could bring out!

After a while.

Rosemary walked in with a beautifully crafted box. When Phillip saw the box, he was almost sure that Rosemary had the real thing!

Mr. Winters also couldn’t believe his eyes when he saw the box, his gaze frozen in disbelief.
