Devoted Love:The Billionaire's Precious Wife
Chapter 310

Chapter 310: Chapter 310

Mr. Eugene was totally nuts about chess.

He paid a hefty price for this chess set and even splurged on a fancy box to store it in!

How did this box end up in Rosemary’s hands? Could it be the real deal inside?

"Sorry to keep you waiting."

Rosemary handed the gift box to Shirley, smiling, "I planned to bring you this chess set next time but didn’t expect this twist. So, I’m gifting it to you now. Hope you like it."

Rosemary’s gesture took aback Shirley. She had planned to gift her this chess set all along.

Her face lit up with joy, and she asked Phillip to open it. The chess set and board inside were even more uniform and beautiful.

"How can this be?" Jessamyn said, surprised, "How can there be two identical chess sets?"

Rosemary’s chess set, in terms of color and workmanship, was no less than Enid’s. Were fakes nowadays really this convincing?

Suri also couldn’t believe her eyes. In this chess set of Rosemary’s, there wasn’t a single flaw.

Mr. Winters also looked a bit off. He didn’t expect the chess set in Rosemary’s hands to be this convincing.

"My chess set was bought from the granddaughter of the previous collector, and there’s no way it’s fake! Where did you get yours?"

Rosemary looked up, her eyes clear, and said lightly, "Mr. Eugene doesn’t have a granddaughter."

This claim took everyone by surprise!

Everyone knew that Mr. Eugene had a granddaughter, but he was very private, so hardly anyone had seen her.

Rosemary insisted, "You’ve been duped."

Enid clenched her fists, "You’re talking nonsense! I have the contact of Mr. Eugene’s granddaughter! I can see her on Facebook! There are lots of pictures of her with Mr. Eugene!"

Some pictures were even taken in Mr. Eugene’s yard. If she wasn’t his granddaughter, how could she appear in his house in her pajamas, taking affectionate pictures with him?!

"The person you know is definitely not Mr. Eugene’s granddaughter. You’ve been fooled."

Hearing Rosemary say this, Enid got even more furious, "Do you know Mr. Eugene? How do you know he doesn’t have a granddaughter? You still haven’t answered where you got your chess set from! If you’re lying today, not only do you ruin the friendship between the McMillian family and the Winters family, but you also tarnish Mr. Eugene’s reputation!"

After all, she claimed that Mr. Eugene didn’t have a granddaughter!

"My chess set was given to me by Mr. Eugene."

Once Rosemary said this, the room went silent with shock!

No! Impossible!!

Mr. Eugene loved chess. How could he give away his beloved treasure to a little girl?

Even his granddaughter had to work hard for over three months to get this chess set.

Mr. Winters was the first to laugh, clearly thinking that Rosemary was joking!

Didn’t he know Mr. Eugene’s temper? He was a grumpy old man, and it was impossible for him to favor a little girl and give away his cherished collection.

This was a colossal joke!

This girl’s lies were getting more and more absurd!

Enid also laughed, "Ms. Rose, your ability to concoct lies is truly commendable. You say you know Mr. Eugene and that he gave your chess set? Do you have any proof?"

"I have his contact."

Mr. Winters found it even funnier after hearing this, "Ms. Rose, let me tell you, I know Mr. Eugene, and I recognize his voice. He doesn’t just give out his contact to anyone."

He had been ruthlessly denied when he wanted Mr. Eugene’s contact.

He had tried to buy that chess set before, and no matter how much he tried to please, Mr. Eugene simply would disagree!

And this girl managed to get Mr. Eugene to give it to her willingly?

What a joke!

Rosemary took out her phone and dialed a number.

Soon after, the other party picked up the call.

"Rose, am I seeing things, or did you dial the wrong number? I can’t believe you’re calling me. That’s a rare treat."

Mr. Eugene’s voice echoed from the other end of the phone, leaving everyone in shock.

Phillip and Shirley, recognizing the voice instantly as Mr. Eugene’s, felt like they had the game in the bag.

Even Mr. Winters’ face changed color. This was definitely Mr. Eugene’s voice. There was no way he could mistake the accent, the tone!

But how could this be?

It sounded as if Mr. Eugene actually knew this girl!

Who exactly was this girl that Mr. Eugene so highly regarded her?

"Mr. Eugene, have you gone to bed yet? I hope I’m not disturbing you?" Rosemary remembered he usually retired early.

"Well, you’re being quite formal now. Forget about sleeping. Even if I was lying in a coffin, I’d get up if you called! When are we going to have another chess match?"

The implications of this were massive. Rosemary played chess, too?

From the sound of it, she had even played chess with Mr. Eugene.

Could it be that she was a chess whiz?

"I’ll come over some other day." As Rosemary said this, she went straight to the point, "I heard you have a granddaughter. Just asking."

"What granddaughter? I wasn’t aware. Ah, I get it. You must have heard some rumors and thought I had recognized someone else as my granddaughter. That’s impossible! I only want to recognize you as my granddaughter. What do you say? Have you changed your mind? Many want to be my granddaughter, if you miss out this time, there won’t be another chance!"

Rosemary hadn’t expected him to bring this up again, so she changed the subject, "We’ll talk about that later. Do you remember the golden chess set?"

"I do. Didn’t I give it to you? Do you want to give it back to me? I knew you were a gentle and sweet girl..."

"You’re overthinking it." Rosemary cut off his daydream, "I’m calling to tell you I gave it away."

"What? You silly girl, that chess set was my treasure. I gave it to you because I love you."

"Are you sure it’s because you love me?"

Caught off guard by Rosemary’s question, Mr. Eugene stammered, "Well, there’s definitely a part of it because I love you."

Since everyone was listening to the call, Rosemary didn’t expose him but said, "Alright, that’s all I wanted to tell you. I’m hanging up now."

"Wait, you haven’t said when you’ll come next." Before Mr. Eugene could finish, Rosemary had hung up the phone.

Everyone was amazed!

Mr. Winters hadn’t expected this girl to actually know Mr. Eugene, and Mr. Eugene himself admitted that he had given her the chess set. And Enid’s face turned even more sour!

If the one in Rosemary’s possession was the real one, then what the hell did she spend a whopping twenty million dollars on?

"No, this can’t be." Enid shook her head, unable to accept the reality.

"Enid, were you deceived?" Suri tried to comfort her, "Don’t you have the contact information of Mr. Eugene’s granddaughter? Call her quickly and ask what’s going on."

"Since Rose has Mr. Eugene’s contact, if necessary, she can also help Mr. Eugene communicate with the ’granddaughter’." Jessamyn also suggested.

All eyes were on Enid.

Feeling embarrassed, Enid took out her phone, ready to call ’the granddaughter,’ only to find out she’d been blocked!

Seeing Enid’s face turning extremely sour, Suri anxiously asked what had happened and found out she’d been blocked.

The truth was as clear as day!

Enid was swindled, and after the swindler received the money, she was blocked.

"After all that fuss, it turned out she’s been swindled."

Shirley looked at Rosemary lovingly, "I can’t believe you even have a connection with Mr. Eugene. When Grandpa Phillip tried to buy the chess set from him, he even turned down Grandpa Philip. It’s clear he values you greatly."

Without a doubt, Rosemary must be a chess prodigy!
