Devoted Love:The Billionaire's Precious Wife
Chapter 414

Chapter 414: Chapter 414

Seeing Debby leave, Clark said to Rosemary, "Don’t mind her. If you don’t want to see her, I’ll simply fire her."

Martha, standing off to the side, was utterly flabbergasted. She hadn’t expected Clark to immediately defend his sister like this.

’What about Serena’s feelings?’

Serena was also a little stunned. When Debby had praised her earlier, she hadn’t thought that such praise could hurt Rosemary.

Yet Clark’s actions left her feeling hollow, as though Rosemary’s feelings were the only ones that mattered.

’Did her achievements not deserve to be recognized?’

Rosemary looked at Clark in front of her. She was surprised that the usually nonchalant Clark could see through Debby’s intentions and address them so directly.

’It seemed Clark was quite observant when it came to details.’

"Listen up, everyone."

At Clark’s words, the surrounding servants immediately perked up, ready to listen attentively.

"Both young ladies of this household are to be treated equally. If I find out anyone who tries to stir up trouble, play favorites, or intentionally sow discord between the two sisters, that person will face consequences far worse than being dismissed from this house. Understand?"

"We understand, Clark." The servants all bowed in unison, not daring to defy him.

"Alright, you may go." Clark waited until they left before turning to Rosemary, "Finally, some peace and quiet. Here, eat some more."

He served Rosemary some food, and also a good amount to Serena, "You did well earlier. My criticism of Debby wasn’t directed at you."

Serena, who had been somewhat downcast, felt a tinge of warmth at Clark’s words.

’He was saying this because he cared about her feelings.’

’It seemed she still had a place in Clark’s heart.’

"We’re family, don’t let anyone use you as a pawn. Now, let’s eat."

Kenneth and Louisa exchanged glances, suddenly realizing their son had grown up and become more thoughtful.

After dinner.

"Come on," Clark tugged at Rosemary’s sleeve, "I have a present for you."

Louisa had been curious about what kind of gift Clark would give to Rosemary, and why he didn’t just bring it inside from the car.

It wasn’t until Clark opened the trunk of the limousine that a multitude of pink balloons floated out.

"Every single one of these balloons was blown up by me. Do you like them?"

He had seen someone do this online and had taken note, wanting to give his sister a surprise.

"How romantic." Kenneth hadn’t expected his son to have such a romantic side. And how did the trunk manage to hold so many balloons? It was spectacular!

Serena watched enviously as the balloons took flight, suddenly feeling that Rosemary was so lucky. Clark had never prepared such a surprise for her.

Rosemary saw that each balloon had the words ’"Welcome home"’ written on them. No doubt about it, the ugly handwriting must be Clark’s.

"All the hardships and unhappiness in the past are over. From now on, just stay here in this home."

Clark patted Rosemary’s head. "As your family, we will take good care of you."

When all the balloons had flown out of the trunk, the fairy lights inside were still twinkling, casting a dreamy glow. A string of words read, ’"Welcome home, my dear sister."’

There was a mountain of gifts piled up under the table. Clark handed one over to Serena, "This one’s for you."

"Thank you, Clark."

"The rest are for Rose." Clark hefted up a stack of a dozen or so gifts, "Don’t be jealous. I’ve given you plenty before."

Serena couldn’t help but laugh at his words, "Clark, you make it sound like I’m petty."

"Oh no! Neither of my sisters is petty!" Clark announced. Then, carrying the pile of gifts, he turned to Rosemary, "I’ll bring these to your room."

"Clark, this is too much." Rosemary eyed the towering stack of gifts, which nearly reached his nose.

"Thank you, Clark."

"Sweetie, no need to thank me. Wait until I bring these to your room and then you can slowly unwrap them. If you find anything you don’t like, just toss it. No need to force yourself to keep it. I just want you to be happy. Seeing you happy makes me happy."

Louisa, seeing her son’s thoughtful gesture, couldn’t keep the smile off her face. No wonder he had left Rose’s presents in the car.

’Carrying all these would indeed be inconvenient.’

After the kids left, Kenneth couldn’t help asking, "Honey, do you think our gift for Rose is too mundane? No surprise and romance."

"We’ll have to plan something grand." Kenneth felt outdone by his son’s surprise today, so he decided he had to think about what to get next time.

In Rosemary’s Room

Clark, carrying the gifts to Rosemary’s bedroom door, asked, "May I come in?"

"Sure," Rosemary replied generously.

"Can I put these here? This way you can sit and unwrap them." After getting his sister’s approval, Clark placed the gifts on her coffee table. He then pulled out a bank card and handed it over, "This is pocket money from me. Buy whatever you like."

Rosemary, who had just been thinking that at least one of her brothers hadn’t given her a bank card, was taken aback.

"Clark, that’s not necessary. You should keep it."

"Take it. It’s a little gift from me." Clark insisted, pushing the card into her hand. "I don’t really know what girls like. If I bought the wrong thing, you can buy something you like or tell me, and I’ll get it for you. Feel free to use it whenever you see something you like. If the money runs out, I’ll transfer more."

"You really don’t need to, Clark."

"What I give you, you must accept. No refusing, got it?" Clark insisted she keep it.

When they were alone, he asked, "Who taught you hacking?"

Rosemary quickly explained about those old men, leaving Clark amazed. "You have quite the talent to reach that level with just a little guidance. You’re really impressive."

’Certainly more so than him.’

"You’re self-taught. That’s even more impressive."

’Great, he didn’t even know how to hack a firewall.’

’In front of his sister, he was feeling quite outmatched.’

"Actually, all you need to do is—" Rosemary, standing on her toes, whispered something into Clark’s ear.

Suddenly, it clicked for Clark. ’So that’s how it works. Brute force was not the answer. You have to find a weak point.’

He didn’t expect his sister to tell him her hacking secret. This showed that her hacking skills were indeed superior to his.
