Devoted Love:The Billionaire's Precious Wife
Chapter 311

Chapter 311: Chapter 311

"Could you come over and play chess with me and your grandma?" Phillip invited her with a smile.

Rosemary chuckled, "Sure."

Mr. Winters tried to lighten the mood: "Never thought Derek would be fooled by a scam, but luckily this gift still ended up in Shirley’s hands. The sender might be different, but the sentiment is still nice."

Romeo’s eyes dimmed; wasn’t he just a shameless one?

"Different sender, different sentiment," Romeo said calmly. "This is a gift from Rose as a granddaughter–in–law to grandma. It’s fundamentally different from a gift from Ms. Enid."

Mr. Winters’ smile froze but quickly returned, agreeing with a yes.

Romeo’s gaze fell on Enid. "Ms. Enid hasn’t formally apologized to my future wife yet."

Enid looked confused. Apologize?

"Ms. Enid was quite harsh just now, rude even. My fiancée is quite introverted, and you scared her."

Hearing Romeo say this, Enid was fuming!

Rosemary introverted? Where was she introverted? She looked like she was afraid of nothing! With the McMillan family backing her up, she became disrespectful and unbridled! She was clearly arrogant, yet they had the audacity to call her introverted, clearly playing favorites!

Since this was happening in the McMillan’s house, Mr. Winters pretended to scold, "Derek, you misunderstood Ms. Rose’s good intentions without knowing the full story. Better apologize."

Even though Enid was unhappy, her grandpa had spoken, so she had to bite the bullet and pretend to apologize: "I’m sorry, my attitude was inappropriate." Regardless of whether Rosemary forgave her, Mr. Winters quickly changed the subject: "Ms. Rose is magnanimous; I’m sure she won’t take this to heart. Remember your status and think three times before you act."

Enid pretended to comply, saying, "Yes, I’ll heed grandpa’s words."

"Alright, it’s getting late; you all should get some rest," Shirley ended the meeting, not wanting to see their faces any longer.

Phillip stood up with a smile and said, "Remember your grandpa’s words when you return home. The elders have more experience than you, and young people should be modest and cautious."

His words had three layers:

First, to express dissatisfaction with Enid’s behavior.

Second, to remind Enid to be polite to Rosemary, who now had the McMillan family’s protection.

Third, elders have more experience; don’t offend them, or they have many ways to make life difficult for the Winters family.

Enid didn’t expect Phillip to protect Rosemary this much, so she bowed her head, pretending to repent, and said, "Thanks for the reminder, Grandpa Phillip. I was wrong."

Mr. Winters laughed, saying, "I’m sorry, I spoiled my only granddaughter!"

He wanted to lighten the mood with a joke, but Phillip’s smile only grew colder.

"We only have one granddaughter–in–law, but she’s not spoiled or arrogant. Instead, she’s an honest person who’s easily taken advantage of. I need to have a chat with her. You should also educate your granddaughter properly. She’s still young, so there’s still time to teach her. You don’t need to visit anymore!" Phillip’s words left the two members of the Winters family standing in shock.

This was completely different from the warm welcome at the beginning.

Brodie quickly offered the fake chessboard with both hands: "Mr. Winters, Ms. Enid, please follow me."

Enid’s face had turned sour. She grudgingly took the gift and cast an unhappy glance at the living room.

Phillip and Shirley were chatting with Rosemary, who was sandwiched between them, all smiles. It looked like they were one big happy family! Before, Phillip had been rude to the Winters family, but now he seemed like a different person in front of Rosemary!

"Ms. Enid, if you please," Brodie gestured invitingly.

With no other option, Enid steeled herself and left.

She had never been treated like this in her life! In the past, she was always the one bullying others, making them suffer. This was the first time she’d ever been on the receiving end!

Once she got into her luxury car, she took out her phone and sent out a message:

"Find out which class Rosemary is in!"

She was definitely going to find a way to get back at Rosemary!

After a while, her phone buzzed twice. She received a reply. She muttered in disbelief, "Straight–A student studying neurology?"

Ha, just as she thought, too much studying had made her go bonkers! The competition in neurology was fierce in hospitals today, with high demands on doctors. Who would dare confidently claim they could become a leading figure in this field? After graduation, with Rosemary’s abilities, she will probably end up being a mere assistant in a small hospital. How could the McMillan family be interested in someone like her?

Back in the living room, Shirley gently patted Rosemary’s hand and said, "Rose, I’m sorry you had to go through that."

Rosemary smiled slightly and said, "It’s okay. You all stood up for me."

Those who needed a warning had been warned. Those who needed to apologize may not have been sincere, but at least they apologized. This was a lesson to the Winters family. Any further fuss would make them look petty.

Rosemary realized it was because of a debt of gratitude. No wonder Mr. Winters had indulged his granddaughter’s tantrum, and Enid had also dared to spout off, because they knew the McMillan family wouldn’t be rude to their saviors. How shameless.

"If she bullies you at school, tell grandma right away," Shirley advised anxiously. "If necessary, I’ll have her transferred to a different school, so she doesn’t cause you any trouble."

Rosemary wasn’t too concerned: "It’s okay, the school’s big, so we might not even run into each other." Even if they did, she wouldn’t be the one at a disadvantage.

Just then, Brodie, having seen off the guests, brought a bowl of medicine from the kitchen for Shirley. He spoke very respectfully: "Shirley, your medicine is ready."

Rosemary smelled the faint bitterness in the air—it was the herbs she had prepared. She looked at Brodie and asked, "How much of this medicine is left?"

"There’s enough for a week."

"I’ll have someone deliver more in a few days. Grandma’s condition has improved, so the dosage can be slightly reduced."

Upon hearing this, Shirley lit up. "Really?"
