Devoted Love:The Billionaire's Precious Wife novel Chapter 483

Chapter 483: Chapter 483

Romeo knew how much she cared for her subordinates, so he volunteered to update her.

Sitting by the couch, his gaze never leaving her for a moment, he asked, "Feeling better?"

"Yes, much better."

He then fed her something, remarking, "Once things cool down here, I’ll take you back home for other doctors to have a look."

"Just a small injury, no big deal."

Rosemary didn’t seem to consider her injuries serious, but Romeo was concerned. "You’re hurt pretty bad, and you say it’s no big deal?"

"I agree with Romeo," Clark chimed in. "When we return, we should consult with more doctors, just to be safe."

"You see, even Clark is saying so."

Seeing their stern faces, leaving no room for negotiation, Rosemary could only concede, "Alright."

Only when she relented did their expressions soften.

"Clark, any new discoveries from the two data files?" Rosemary asked.

"None," Clark replied calmly. "You rest up. Romeo has already avenged you and your subordinates today. Let’s consider this matter closed. From now on, you just need to recover, focus on school, and enjoy your love life. I approve of your relationship with Romeo."

Romeo’s eyes softened. Finally, he got the approval of his brother.

"It seems that Clark has some new findings," Rosemary smirked. "Not planning to share? Is it dangerous?"

"No, you’re overthinking."

"Clark," Rosemary said with interest, "I made copies of the files before I handed them to you. If you won’t tell, I’ll find out myself."

"Rose!"

Perhaps he didn’t anticipate this move from his sister. Clark hurriedly responded, "This matter involves many parties. I don’t want you two to get dragged into it any further."

"Do you think we’re not capable of handling it?"

God knows how much it pained him to see his sister injured like this.

"Are you worried about involving us?" Rosemary seemed to guess something. "Are the opposition’s forces strong? Stronger than Romeo’s?"

"Rose, please, let it go."

Clark’s words made Rosemary and Romeo exchange a look. Romeo seemed to agree with her, softly saying, "Let’s investigate."

He also wanted to know who could make Clark so wary. 𝗳𝚛𝚎𝚎𝘄𝕖𝕓𝕟𝕠𝚟𝚎𝕝.𝗰𝕠𝐦

"Romeo?" Clark never expected Romeo to indulge his sister like this, immediately admonishing, "Can you two please listen to me?"

"No." Their answer came in unison. Rosemary even took out her phone, ready to open the two data files.

"Rose." Seeing that they weren’t listening, Clark had to say, "This involves multiple countries, many figures in the political arena. I’m not trying to scare you, but regardless of your opinions, I won’t allow you two to get involved anymore."

This was no longer something they could handle on their own.

It wasn’t as if one gang could sort this all out.

Rosemary understood. "So they’re searching for Carol not to persuade her to return and continue as the successor, but to seize her token and usurp her position? And to destroy any evidence she holds about the organization?"

Clark nodded. "Exactly."

So, Carol had no choice but to hide. Once they found her and retrieved the token, both her and Clark’s lives would be in danger.

"What about the poison in her system?" Rosemary asked again.

"I read the first part of that data package. It said that the elders were furious when Carol wanted to leave the organization. After numerous arguments, the elders finally relented and punished her with their method for dealing with traitors."

That was to drink the deadliest slow-acting poison within the organization. After leaving the organization, her fate was left to destiny.

"Carol drank it?"

Clark nodded somberly. She had drunk it all. What she hadn’t anticipated was how quickly the poison would take effect.

And each attack was more painful than the last.

"By the seventh month of our relationship, the poison started to act up. She was in constant pain for half a year, and when she couldn’t hide it anymore, she decided to leave."

Clark hadn’t expected this to align with his sister’s speculation. Carol didn’t leave because she didn’t love him or because she had fallen for someone else. She was tortured by the poison and had no choice but to leave.

What’s more, at that time, the people in the organization had gone back on their word. They had originally promised to let her go after she took the poison, never to interfere with her life again.

But time and again, the organization tried to kill her. At first, they tried to persuade her to return as the successor. When they realized she was adamant about not returning, they tried to take her successor token and replace her.

Not only some people within Inferno Clan, but even the external powers only recognized the token, not the successor.
