Devoted Love:The Billionaire's Precious Wife
Chapter 629

Chapter 629: Chapter 629

"Martha’s been with me for eighteen years. She’s like family to me. I can’t live without Martha, please.

Sis, I won’t let Martha get in your way. I won’t let her wander around the main house."

"Ms. Collins, I can clean the next house. I can water and fertilize the flowers. I can do other chores, and I won’t show myself around you."

"Sis, I will do whatever you ask me to do from now on, please."

Rosemary could see that Serena was sincerely begging to keep Martha this time.

She could agree and let Serena be more obedient and listen to her in the future.

But as long as Martha was around, she would keep instigating Serena.

Even the most innocent and kind person would turn bad after being brainwashed for a long time.

So, there was no need for Martha to stay.

And there was no need for her to be merciful either.

"You’re eighteen now; you don’t need her anymore."

Just as Rosemary was about to leave, Serena suddenly hugged her legs and cried, "It’s not about age. It’s about how Martha and I have been with each other day and night. We’re like family."

"Why don’t you move out and live with her?"

Serena lifted her teary eyes in disbelief, unable to believe that Rosemary was trying to kick her out!

"You can stay, but she can’t." Rosemary flicked a glance at Martha and finally said.

Serena despairingly let go of her, stunned for a moment, until Martha cried and hugged her, "It’s okay, Serena. Just because I’m not in this house doesn’t mean I’m leaving you."

"No, there has to be a way." Serena shook her head, tears streaming down her face. "When Mom and Dad come back, I’ll beg them."

After Rosemary went in her room and packed up, she opened the door to find Martha kneeling at the doorway.

"Rosemary, I’m not here to bother you. Just that I’ve never reflected on myself all this time, and never properly apologized to you. I was arrogant and dismissive, and I didn’t respect you. I know it’s too late to say anything now. I’m leaving. Can you forgive me?"

Rosemary leaned against the door, lazily looking at her. "Did Hunter tell you, you need my forgiveness to leave?"

Martha looked up, somewhat surprised; she didn’t expect this girl to know everything!

"Fine, I forgive you." Rosemary walked past her, leaving without a second glance.

Martha watched her retreating figure. Sometimes she couldn’t understand what this girl was thinking.

Rosemary was in a hurry to go abroad, so she didn’t waste time on trivia like this.

She knocked on the study door, and after getting Hunter’s permission, she entered.

"Hunter, Mom and Dad are still with Alger; they won’t be back soon. They gave me Uncle’s address. I’m going there now."

Hunter signaled the meeting to stop, then closed his laptop and stood up.

"Rose, you’ve suffered so much before. Why didn’t you tell me?"

Upon hearing this, Rosemary wondered if Martha had confessed everything? Impossible, this wasn’t her style.

Who else could have told Hunter?

Could it be Edith?

"These are just trivial matters, not worth mentioning. I merely didn’t want to deal with them."

If she really wanted to confront them, could they withstand a single round?

Seeing her obedient demeanor, Hunter felt guilty but also found her mature and gracious.

"Martha has been in this house for eighteen years. She truly has worked hard, and that’s why Mom and Dad didn’t notice her disrespect towards you. Did she apologize to you just now?"

"Yes."

"Sincerely?"

"Guess so."

Just now, Martha genuinely desired to stay, hence the heartfelt tears and apologies.

However, with her temperament, it was true what they said — she couldn’t change a leopard’s spots.

"Hunter, I’ve got to go." Rosemary checked the time. She should leave.

"I’ll have someone drive you there."

"No need. Mom and Dad have arranged for our family’s pilot to take me directly to Uncle’s private airstrip."

"Good. That’ll put my mind at ease."

The Collins family not only employed drivers, but also pilots — all with years of experience and loyal service to the family.

Rosemary took out a small gift from her backpack.

"Molly is away at a competition and hasn’t returned yet. If all goes well, she should be the champion. I’m not sure if I’ll be able to make it back in time to celebrate with her.

This is a little gift I’ve prepared for her. If I can’t come back that day, could you give it to her for me?"

"Sure." Hunter hadn’t expected his sister to think so far ahead, even preparing a gift.

Speaking of which, he hadn’t started preparing.

"Molly would probably look forward more to a gift from you, so you should think about what to give her."

After reminding him, Rosemary waved casually and closed the study door behind her.

Thanks to his sister’s reminder, Hunter sat in front of the computer, pondering.

He opened the search bar and typed: What’s a good gift for a girlfriend?

On the other side...

By the time Kenneth and Louisa returned, it was already 11 at night.

Serena, with her eyes swollen from crying, explained what had happened.

Louisa was shocked. That was a long time ago.

She was admiring her newly purchased flowers when a servant told her that Serena and Martha had a fall.

When she rushed to the living room, Serena had a bruise on her back, and Martha was covered in bruises.

At that time, Lina was still in the house. She insisted that Rose had walked over the spot and hadn’t slipped, but Serena did — suspecting Rose knew about the oil spill and avoided it.

She accused Rose of trying to harm Serena!

At the time, there was a servant named Holly who also added fuel to the fire.

Later, Rose restored the surveillance footage, proving her innocence, and she expelled Lina and Holly from the house.

But she never expected that Martha was also involved!

If she hadn’t deliberately unscrewed the cap and spilled the oil on the floor, she wouldn’t have implicated herself and Serena.

"So it was you." Louisa was even more furious. "You’ve tried to make my precious daughter fall, and now you have the audacity to beg to stay in this house?"

Kenneth, after hearing the entire story, was also furious.

"Martha, what were you thinking? It’s not easy for Rose to return to this family. We as her parents should love her more, give her what she needs. What’s there for you to be jealous of?"

This was their home!

This was the Collins family!

Martha, on the side, continued to cry and apologize, while Serena remained kneeling in front of their parents.

"Mom, Dad, Martha was not thinking straight that time. She has apologized to Rose and received her forgiveness. Please let Martha stay. She has taken care of me for eighteen years. If not for merits, at least for her hard work!"

"Serena, there’s no need to say anything." Louisa seemed to have made up her mind, no longer wavering.
