Devoted Love:The Billionaire's Precious Wife
Chapter 487

Chapter 487: Chapter 487

Rosemary’s eyes softened, her lips curling into a gentle smile as she said, "You’re quite easily contented."

"I think I’m the greedy one, being able to be with someone as wonderful as you. I’ll have to work harder from now on," Romeo said, his touch light as he applied ointment to her wounds. "You—just you—outweigh everything in the world. You’re enough to resist any temptation. In this life, you alone are enough for me."

Her gaze warmed even further at his words.

"Does it hurt?" Romeo asked as he gently rubbed ointment onto her back wound.

"Your touch is much lighter than those of the guys," she noted.

He must have a knack for medicine.

When she had been unconscious, someone had dumped way too much powder on her wound, causing her excruciating pain.

After Romeo finished applying the ointment, he gently kissed her on a spot that was not injured.

The soft touch made Rosemary lift her eyes, her beautiful side profile reflected in his eyes.

Romeo leaned in again, unable to resist meeting her lips.

A soft sense of love passed from their lips, and Rosemary slowly responded to his kiss.

Their feelings for each other intertwined, as they found themselves unable to pull away.

Boss: At that moment, Jack walked in, knocking on the door as he usually did, with a few others trailing behind him.

Seeing Romeo on one knee, kissing the girl on the bed, Jack and the others stared in disbelief.

Although Rosemary’s back was covered by her clothes, Romeo immediately pulled the blanket over her body to shield her.

Both of their lips were still red, the affection in their eyes still visible.

"Did I say you could come in?" Rosemary’s voice was slightly seductive, her eyes lighting up when she saw Jack, Tom, and the others with bruised faces.

"You guys got hurt?"

"No biggie, Boss. We wanted to escort you back," Jack explained, still worried about them boarding the plane with such few numbers.

Seeing their injuries, Rosemary decided, "You guys stay here and heal."

"Boss." Jack wanted to protest but held back. Instead, he said, "We’ll come find you once we’re fully healed."

Hearing this, Jack and the others were overjoyed. "We’ll take good care of ourselves!"

"You guys have worked hard this month. Everyone gets a tenfold bonus."

Their eyes lit up with jubilation. "Long live the Boss!"

"Go take care of your wounds."

"Boss, are you feeling better?" Jack couldn’t help but ask. "Do you need me to contact the doctor so he can check on you when you get back?"

"No need."

"Enough with the chatter." Jones yanked Jack away. "They’re having a moment, why are you meddling?"

"There’s nothing wrong with me talking to my Boss!"

"Your Boss needs to date to get married. Leave them alone!"

Downstairs, Clark noticed Carol’s finger twitch. He couldn’t believe it, but he was overjoyed. Not long after, Carol opened her eyes, squinting as she tried to adjust to the light.

She was already a vision of ethereal beauty, and the moment she opened her eyes, she looked even more breathtaking.

Clark finally saw a living person, and he exclaimed with excitement and caution, "Carol?"

Hearing the familiar voice, Carol paused, her gaze falling onto Clark, seemingly in disbelief. "Clark?"

"You’re finally awake." Clark’s voice wavered as he hugged her tightly. "Thank God, you’re finally awake."

Thank heavens—his girl was finally awake.

Carol didn’t even know how she ended up there, but as she felt the familiar yet long-missed embrace of the man, her eyes instantly welled up with tears.

Instinctively, she hugged him back.

"Is this a dream?" Carol closed her eyes, deeply inhaling his scent. "It must be a dream."

She often had dreams like this.

In her dreams, Clark held her just like this—sometimes joyously, sometimes tearfully as he was now.

The only constant was that Clark was not by her side every time she woke up.

The overwhelming void and loss had tormented her time and again.

"It’s not a dream." Clark’s voice was hoarse as he fought back tears. "Rose brought you back."

Seizing the opportunity, he formally introduced, "Rose is my sister. We were reunited a few months ago. She went to Stardust Lane and told me that your departure might not have been voluntary, so we followed the clues."

"Rosemary." Carol seemed to remember something and quickly asked, "Where is she?"

"She got a bit hurt. She’s resting upstairs."

"Is her life in danger?"

"No." Clark stroked her soft hair lovingly. "Don’t worry, you’re safe here. This is her territory."

"This is her territory?" Carol asked again, lifting her eyes.

"Yeah, she’s the boss here."

Clark’s sister was the boss of Mafia Flame? Mr. Bryant??

This time, it was Carol’s turn to be surprised.

"Didn’t your brother tell you?" Clark asked, his gaze softening.

"He only said that Rosemary was his good friend, that they’ve been through life and death together. He didn’t go into details."

As Carol said this, she noticed the injuries on Clark’s body. Remembering what Rosemary had said, her tears welled up even more.

"All these wounds, you endured them for me." Carol looked at his injuries with heartache. She was furious at Inferno Clan for daring to harm her man.

"I was careless, but luckily, Rose was there. She was the first to realize that something was wrong. The talisman you left me—she was the first to discover it. She and her fiancé even went to Inferno Clan and brought back all the data you stored in your computer."

Hearing this, Carol felt a mix of happiness and embarrassment.

Clark held her face and said with a grin, "Without Rose, I wouldn’t have realized how important I am to you. The three questions you set were all about me. And when Rose lied to you about my death—the way you looked so upset."

Carol was even more embarrassed, but knowing that the data was in safe hands and not seized by Inferno Clan, she breathed a sigh of relief.

Next, she would definitely undermine part of Inferno Clan’s power and expose their dark deeds.

"Carol, I missed you so much." Clark held her face, leaning in to kiss the lips he’d longed for in the joy of their reunion.

Carol had already broken up with him and instinctively wanted to resist.

However, the longing that had built up over the year overpowered her. She missed him too much and found herself responding to his kiss, closing her eyes and letting the tears fall.
