Devoted Love:The Billionaire's Precious Wife -
Chapter 419
Chapter 419: Chapter 419
"Both my wife and Rose are my top priorities," George said with a chuckle.
Their voices reached Serena, making her feel even more downcast.
Clark handed Serena a cup of freshly brewed coffee, whispering, "Someday, when you find the right person, you’ll be cherished just like this by your in-laws."
Serena looked up, surprised that Clark had noticed her inner thoughts, feeling a bit embarrassed. "Clark, am I really that bad?"
"Everyone has different strengths and blooms at different times," Clark said, seeming to guess her thoughts. He stood by her side, smiling. "Rose’s success is due to the unimaginable amount of hard work she has put in. While you were shopping, having spa days, and attending parties, she has been quietly striving."
Serena seemed enlightened, looking up at Clark.
"If you feel that you’re not good enough, it’s never too late to start working hard. When your time comes, people will admire and look up to you."
"Clark..." Serena felt a sudden realization—she had been wallowing in self-pity without ever considering change. "Can I become like her if I work hard?" She glanced at the girl who was the center of attention in the room.
"I can’t guarantee what kind of achievements you’ll have or if you’ll surpass Rose, but at least, you’ll definitely surpass who you are now."
Wasn’t surpassing your current self also a kind of progress?
Clark stood beside her. "Serena, do you know? You have a better chance of success than others because of your current status. You can easily access the best resources. For instance, if you want to learn piano, our parents will hire the best teacher and buy the best piano for you. You can focus solely on learning."
But in many parts of the world, there were people who wanted to learn the piano but could only watch from afar without even having an ordinary piano.
"So, with these resources and talents you have, you should strive to shine for everyone to see. I believe in your success."
After listening to Clark’s words, Serena nodded. "Clark, from now on, I won’t give up easily anymore."
"In fact, you’re already much better than most people your age." Clark smiled at her. "Keep going. It’s never too late to start."
In the hospital room
Rosemary laughed while discussing her childhood piano practice, but others were heartbroken, thinking her training methods were too harsh.
"I knew this kid must have put in a lot of hard work to achieve what she has now."
"Exactly, no one becomes successful easily. Such harsh piano training methods are too hard for a child."
"Rose persisted, and that’s why she’s become a star."
When Serena entered, she didn’t know what they had been talking about, but hearing these conversations, she subconsciously looked at the shining girl in the crowd.
Success didn’t come easy—Rosemary must have put in a lot of hard work to achieve her current status, right?
With this thought, she secretly made up her mind to change herself!
Later, at the garage
Having finally met her beloved daughter-in-law, Jennifer was in an even better mood than before.
"I’ll text you when we get home. Be careful on the road, and call me if anything happens."
Rosemary nodded. "Goodbye."
"Goodbye, my sweet girl!" Jennifer patted her head and got in the car.
Serena watched with genuine envy, then got into Clark’s car and went back to Reflections Villa with Rosemary.
Clark wiggled his phone mysteriously, smiling. "Rose, Serena’s gone out with her friends. I’ve got two movie tickets. How about we go watch a movie? I heard it’s really good."
"I’ve already made plans."
"What? You’ve got a date? With whom? A guy or a girl? Right now? What for?"
No sooner had Clark finished speaking than a servant announced, "Ms. Rose, Mr. McMillan is waiting for you outside."
"Okay." Rosemary glanced at Clark. "I’m leaving now, Clark."
"Hey, wait!"
Seeing his sister’s retreating figure, Clark felt a pang of unease and quickly followed her.
From afar, he saw a man patting Rosemary’s head, seemingly whispering sweet nothings to her.
"Hands off my sister! Did you even wash your hands? She just washed her hair tonight!"
Just as Romeo looked up, Clark pulled his sister behind him. "Do you always treat women like this, Mr. McMillan? Touching them without permission?"
"Clark, you are back." Romeo seemed unfazed. "Rose is my fiancée."
He had only patted her head. Was that too much?
"Whether she’s your fiancée or not, the ink hasn’t even dried yet!" Clark turned to his sister and asked quietly, "Are you going out with him? Are you two officially dating? Is he reliable?"
Although he had heard they were in love, he hadn’t really considered Romeo’s character as a brother. Whether his sister’s lifelong happiness was worth entrusting to such a man depended on his performance!
"Don’t worry, Clark, he’s absolutely reliable."
Clark looked at the man in front of him, who was smiling with the warmth of jade, and couldn’t help but feel he wasn’t reliable at all.
"What are you guys going to do?" Clark asked.
"To watch a movie."
Suddenly, Clark was filled with jealousy. "Which one? I want to come too!"
Romeo and Rosemary were both speechless.
"Rose, you’re still young and can’t judge people clearly," Clark said softly. "Take me with you. I’ll keep an eye on things. If he’s really good to you, I’ll agree with both hands!"
He couldn’t let his sister stake her lifelong happiness on a fleeting romance.
In the end, Rosemary had no choice but to bring him along.
In the car
Clark, sitting in the back seat, noticed Romeo occasionally glancing at the passenger seat and snapped, "Keep your eyes on the road."
What was he looking at his sister for?
"Clark, the road is not as good-looking as Rose," Romeo replied, glancing at her again. At a red light, he took out a bottle of lemonade, unscrewed the cap, and handed it over—a gesture he’d seemingly done countless times.
But Clark immediately snatched it away. "Rose can’t drink cold stuff!"
"This is at room temperature."
"Room temperature is not okay either!" Clark opened his own shoulder bag and took out a lollipop. He tore open the wrapper and handed it over. "Here, Rose, this is for you."
This was what girls should eat!
