Devoted Love:The Billionaire's Precious Wife-Chapter 601

After Lunch

Jennifer and Rosemary were giggling and chatting, seeming as if they had endless topics to talk about.

Romeo glanced at the time and realized that ever since his mother had arrived, he hadn’t had a chance to have a proper conversation with Rose.

"Mom," Romeo couldn’t help but interrupt, "Dad is lonely at home." novelbuddy.cσ๓

The implication was clear: please go home and keep him company.

"What, are you already impatient to get rid of your mother? Rose and I haven’t finished our chat yet."

As Jennifer said this, she laughed and turned to Rosemary.

"And then the store manager said that the waistline of the dress was very small and ordinary girls wouldn’t be able to fit into it. I told him that my daughter-in-law is not an ordinary girl, and I showed him your picture. And guess what? The store manager and all the sales associates gathered around, all praising how beautiful you look."

Rosemary couldn’t help but laugh at Jennifer’s animated storytelling.

"The manager then said, with your slim waist, you would definitely fit into the dress. So, I bought it, and it’s in the car. I’ll get it for you later."

Rosemary’s smile softened. "Thank you."

"Don’t be so formal with me; we are family."

Nowadays, whenever Jennifer went shopping, the first person that came to her mind was her beloved daughter-in-law.

Sometimes, when George saw her return from shopping, he would find all the bags filled with things for their daughter-in-law—and none for him.

He felt a pang of neglect.

"Mom," Romeo spoke up again, "Rose and I have some work-related matters to discuss."

"Why don’t you guys go ahead? I can offer some advice."

Romeo beckoned his mother over and whispered, "Do you want your son and daughter-in-law to finally be together? You’re so present that we can’t even have a moment."

"But I also need to develop my relationship with my daughter-in-law."

"Can’t you do that when I’m not around?"

Seeing that her daughter-in-law finally had some time to come and see her son, Jennifer decided, "Alright, I’ll leave first. You better take good care of her and don’t bully her, got it?"

"I wouldn’t dare to."

"Rose, I am leaving now. In the afternoon, let Romeo show you around. If he does anything wrong or if anyone makes you feel uncomfortable, tell me, and I will back you up."

Rosemary couldn’t help but laugh. "Thanks."

"You’re thanking me again, silly girl."

"Shall I walk you out?"

"That would be great."

Jennifer looked at her son with a delighted expression, as if to say: Rose offered to see me out. I can’t let her down.

Romeo was speechless.

The employees on the first floor watched as Rosemary and Jennifer walked out of the elevator arm in arm.

Jennifer was in high spirits, greeting everyone with a radiant smile—a stark contrast from her initial intimidating demeanor.

Whenever she was with her daughter-in-law, Jennifer seemed to have endless things to say. Their cheerful conversation attracted quite a few whispers from the bystanders.

"They really look like a harmonious mother-daughter pair."

"I wonder what this girl did to make a furious person happy in the blink of an eye."

"Anyone who can win over Mr. McMillian must be extraordinary."

"I wonder if she would consider releasing a tutorial. I’d be willing to pay a thousand dollars for it."

"If it’s approved by Mr. McMillian, I’d pay ten thousand for that tutorial!"

"When you have some free time, come over to my house," Jennifer formally invited Rosemary.

Previous meetings had always been at Romeo’s grandparents’ place. Rosemary had never been to George and Jennifer’s home.

"Alright, we’ll visit some day." Jennifer looked at the girl’s well-behaved demeanor, her fondness for her growing even more.

"I’m so envious of Louisa for having such a well-behaved and beautiful daughter. But thankfully, we’re all one family, living in the same house. Knowing that I have a thoughtful and understanding girl like you by my side in the future, I feel sweeter than eating honey."

Jennifer was grinning from ear to ear.

"Romeo, being at this age and status, will inevitably attract some attention. If any woman becomes too troublesome, just tell me, and I’ll handle them."

Rosemary was about to say thank you, but remembering what Jennifer had said, she laughed and said, "Okay."

"You’re always so understanding and obedient."

Before Jennifer could finish her sentence, she heard an employee passing by and calling out, "Mr. McMillian," and then again, "Mr. McMillian!"

As she turned her head, she found her son had followed them all the way to the corporation’s main building.

"You—why did you follow us?" Jennifer was somewhat exasperated. Was he really that clingy?

"Rose doesn’t know the way. I’ll guide her later."

Jennifer was speechless.

"Alright, alright, no need to escort me further. My car is parked in the basement—just take the elevator down."

Unable to stand her son’s behavior, Jennifer patted Rosemary’s hand and said, "If you have time, let’s go out and have fun."

"Okay." Rosemary responded with a warm smile. "Goodbye, Jennifer."

"Goodbye, my sweet girl." Jennifer was still marveling as she boarded the elevator. How could a girl be so well-behaved and likable, with such a good personality and so many talents?

She was too perfect, too outstanding.

As the elevator doors closed, Jennifer did not forget to remind her son one last time, "Don’t forget my words."

She must take good care of her daughter-in-law.

Rosemary was such a wonderful daughter-in-law. She must hold on to her tightly and not let anyone else claim her!

Seeing his mother finally leave, Romeo held Rosemary’s hand. "Let me show you around."

Seeing that it was time for work, many employees were hurrying to the main building of the corporation.

Rosemary could see what he was thinking. Was he trying to make more people aware of her existence? Really?

"Mom just now reminded me over and over again to make sure I show you around to get you familiar with the place."

Seeing that he even brought Jennifer into the picture, Rosemary couldn’t help but laugh. "Okay."

When the two appeared in the procurement department hand in hand, the whole department was stunned.

Some of the employees, who had ordered takeout for lunch or were going home for lunch, were seeing Romeo for the first time—publicly holding a girl’s hand inside the corporation.

They looked like a couple in love, and the usually aloof Mr. McMillian now seemed like a caring boyfriend.

They all stared, and once they came to their senses, they hurriedly got up to greet:

"Good afternoon, Mr. McMillian, and this is...?"

"Mrs. McMillian."

It left everyone in the department thoroughly shocked. Was this girl appearing as Mrs. McMillian right off the bat?

That’s incredible.

"Good afternoon, Mrs. McMillian!" everyone greeted in unison, their eyes still filled with surprise and disbelief as they looked at the girl.

She was stunningly beautiful, with striking features, fair skin, a slender figure, and extraordinary temperament.

One could not help but be attracted by her top-tier beauty and be unable to shift their gaze away.

"Hello, everyone." Rosemary’s voice was equally pleasant—refreshing and soothing to the ears, making everyone feel comfortable and at ease.
