Devoted Love:The Billionaire's Precious Wife-Chapter 609

"Romeo must have brought you here to provoke Serena, knowing well that the McMillian family and the Collins family are on good terms. Hence, the Collins’ household staff wouldn’t dare to stop Romeo—let alone you."

"And to think you had the audacity to come in, enjoying the tea and cupcakes served by the Collins’ servants, while flirting with Serena’s fiancé! Shameless! You have no decency!"

"This is my home, and Romeo is my fiancé," Rosemary lifted her lazy gaze. "Aren’t you supposed to be Serena’s best friend? Didn’t she tell you?"

On hearing this, those rich girls were stunned for a moment before bursting into laughter.

"This is your home? You even have the nerve to tell such a lie? I’ve seen shameless people before, but never someone as brazen as you! Your audacity is thicker than the walls of this mansion!"

"It’s a well-known fact that the Collins family and the McMillian family are betrothed. How dare you claim that Romeo is your fiancé? Are you ignoring the fact that these two families are engaged?"

"The engagement still stands."

Suddenly, a magnetic voice resonated from a distance.

Those ladies turned to see Serena’s brother—Hunter Collins!

There he was, dignified and composed, striding towards them.

"Hunter, it’s good that you’re here. Someone is blatantly claiming this as her home! Come and make a judgment."

"She even says that Romeo is her fiancé!"

"I’ve seen shameless people, but never someone this brazen. You should have her thrown out!"

"No, she deserves to be taught a lesson to understand the consequences of lying!"

Those ladies were confident that with Hunter’s arrival, Rosemary’s end was near. They were eager to see her humiliated.

But to their surprise, the usually cold and stern Hunter suddenly called out warmly, "Rose."

Before they could react, they heard Rosemary obediently respond, "Hunter, what brings you here?"

"I heard there was some trouble at home, so I came to check."

Those ladies were dumbfounded, completely clueless about the situation.

Why was Rosemary calling Hunter so intimately?

And why was Hunter being so gentle with her?

"What were you saying about my sister just now?"

As Hunter looked at the girls, his gaze was as cold and indifferent as ever.

The girls were speechless, and in a daze, they stuttered, "She, she, she is?"

"My sister. Rosemary Collins—my real sister."

On hearing Rosemary’s surname, coupled with Hunter’s final words, the girls were stunned.

How could this girl possibly be Hunter’s biological sister?

Didn’t the Collins family only have one daughter, Serena?

When did they have another daughter?

But Hunter, with his status and reputation, couldn’t possibly lie.

If what he said was true, then Serena must be aware of this girl’s existence.

But Serena had never mentioned this girl at all.

It was as if she were a stranger.

What on earth was going on?

"Sylvia, did Serena ever mention anything to you?" fɾeewebnoveℓ.co๓

"Hunter, if this girl is your sister, then she must be Serena’s—?"

"Sister."

Hunter’s words left the ladies frozen in place once again.

Sylvia asked with disbelief, "Does Serena know about her?"

"Yes." Hunter’s firm reply shattered their last hope. "They live in the same house, constantly in each other’s company."

"But... why didn’t Serena say that?" Sylvia’s voice trailed off to a whisper.

The other ladies were equally shocked. They couldn’t believe the truth they were just told.

There was nothing more convincing than hearing the truth from a member of the Collins family.

"Rose had been lost for eighteen years and only found her way back home six months ago. For some reasons, we haven’t publicly revealed her identity yet."

The ladies were taken aback by this revelation, stunned by the unexpected twist.

"Although Serena is not a blood-relative of the Collins family, we have treated her like our own for the past eighteen years. She’s like family to us. So, on the day Rose returned, with Rose’s consent, Serena was allowed to stay. They consider each other as sisters."

Rosemary had been born first on their shared birthday, so she was technically the older sister, while Serena was the younger one.

But regardless of their birth order, Rosemary was the rightful heiress of the Collins family. It was only natural that she was the older sister.

The ladies all looked at each other with shock and disbelief.

"Hunter, are you telling the truth? Serena isn’t the real heiress of the Collins family?"

"So, this girl standing in front of us is the heiress?"

"But Serena never mentioned anything about this."

"She only said..."

"Said what?"

Though Hunter had heard most of the conversation earlier, he wanted to hear it again from them.

Sylvia, looking deflated, finally spoke.

"So, Rosemary is the true heiress. She’s the one Romeo is engaged to, not Serena. If Serena knew this all along, why did she claim that she was the one who rejected Romeo?"

The ladies couldn’t believe that Serena could tell such a big lie. Was it all for her vanity?

"She wasn’t like this before. She was so innocent and kind-hearted. How could she lie to us?"

"I still can’t believe it."

"She said being with Romeo would place her under a microscope, and she didn’t want to live her life like that."

"She said Rosemary was just a temporary flame that Romeo found to provoke her—to make her change her mind."

"It’s all fake. Serena lied to me."

"She lied to all of us!"

Romeo had known that Hunter was home. He had been watching as the girls confronted Rosemary.

Seeing how things had turned out, Romeo walked over to Rosemary, his arm around her slim waist.

"There was never any romantic relationship between Serena and me. Before Rose returned, I rarely interacted with her. Even if Rose hadn’t come back, I would never date Serena."

Nothing could be more shocking than hearing Romeo himself debunk the rumors.

So Serena’s claim—that Romeo was infatuated with her and unwilling to break up—was all a lie.

"So, she didn’t threaten to cut off all contact with you if you didn’t break up with her?" Sylvia, clinging onto the last thread of hope, asked. "Did she?"

"We were never in a relationship, so how could we break up?"

With this confirmation, the ladies felt their spirits deflate. They couldn’t believe that Serena was capable of such deceit.

They had known each other for so many years and considered each other as sisters.

But Serena had lied to them.
