Devoted Love:The Billionaire's Precious Wife novel Chapter 569

Chapter 569: Chapter 569

"I learned from an elder member of our community," Rosemary began gently. "I won’t claim to be able to perform miracles, but I can handle basic medical emergencies without a hitch."

"Are you still in school?" Belinda inquired.

"Speaking of school," Rosemary replied, "your granddaughter here scored perfect grades on her national exams. She’s been courted by prestigious schools from across the country but chose to attend Westerly College."

"She’s a freshman at Westerly College now. They’ve given her a lot of leeway, allowing her to attend classes at her own pace."

"Her talents don’t stop at academics. She’s also quite gifted in arts. She led her team in a competition against other prestigious schools and emerged as the star, creating quite a buzz."

"In short, we could go on for days about your granddaughter’s virtues."

Her brothers all chimed in, singing Rosemary’s praises.

Belinda was taken aback by the excellence of her long-lost granddaughter. Looking at Rosemary’s sweet, beautiful face, her eyes brimmed with tears again.

"I heard from Louisa that you’ve had a tough time over the past eighteen years," Belinda said, her heart aching.

"It’s all in the past," Rosemary dismissed, brushing off the hardships of the past eighteen years with ease.

Belinda felt the maturity and resilience in her words. What a wonderful child.

She couldn’t help but squeeze Rosemary’s hand. "I’m glad you’re back. It proves there’s justice in the world. With the Collins family and your aunt and uncles around, you won’t have to suffer anymore."

"I’m fine."

"If there’s anything you’re uncomfortable with in the house, just let us know."

"Everything’s great."

"Rose is easy-going. She doesn’t fuss about anything," Clark said with a smile. "She never asks for anything. When we insist on buying her stuff, she claims it’s wasteful."

"She’s always thinking about saving us money."

"We’ve said it before — the list of her virtues could go on and on."

Louisa listened to her sons, feeling gratified to have such a considerate and well-behaved child.

"I haven’t had time to prepare a present for our first meeting. Maybe when Christmas Eve arrives..."

Before Belinda could finish her sentence, David laughed. "Grandma, Christmas Eve has passed. It’s past midnight now. It’s Christmas Day."

"It’s Christmas already?" Belinda hadn’t realized how quickly time had passed.

Rosemary smiled. "Grandma, waking up is the best gift you could give me. Material wealth is secondary. My parents, uncles, and brothers have already given me so much."

"That’s not the same!" Belinda immediately countered. "The sentiment from your grandmother is different. Let me think of a suitable gift to give you."

And she set about pondering seriously.

"Why don’t you rest a bit? Rose has been running about a lot because of your illness," Louisa said with a smile. "Once you rest, everyone else can too."

After all, Rose must have sacrificed a lot of her own work to take care of things here. If her grandmother could recover soon, it would ease Rose’s burdens.

"Now that you’re awake, shall I give you your medicine?" Rosemary asked, signaling May to bring the herbal concoction from the kitchen.

"It’s Christmas, maybe I could skip it today." Belinda caught a whiff of the strong medicine from afar. Ever since she fell ill, she had been consuming all sorts of medicine to the point where she was somewhat reluctant now.

"This medicine is good for you." Rosemary took the bowl of medicine and gently coaxed her.

Thinking about how the prescription was written by her own granddaughter, Belinda decided to brave it out. "Alright, I’ll listen to you."

"Here, drink it slowly." Rosemary spoon-fed her the medicine.

Was it because of the good impression Rosemary left on Grandma during their first meeting, then saving her three times, and with her brothers constantly singing her praises? 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Louisa was about to explode.

"Mom," Rosemary spoke up with a smile, "Hunter, Chasel, and Clark have already spent Christmas with me ahead of time. I’ve received the surprises and gifts, and I’m very touched and happy. This is the first time in eighteen years that so many people have celebrated with me, giving me so many surprises and touching moments. I’m already very content."

Upon hearing this, everyone felt a pang of sympathy.

They’d given Serena these surprises and companionship for eighteen years, yet Rosemary only had half a day.

"Let them go. They must have other work that’s been held up."

Rosemary’s magnanimity made Louisa even more displeased with her three sons.

"Look at your sister. How understanding and considerate she is to speak up for you at every turn — yet you guys..."

"Mom, calm down." David immediately went over, slinging an arm over her shoulder with a cheeky grin. "You still have me, right? Those three blockheads don’t know the first thing about cheering up a sister. All three of them combined aren’t as good as me!"

The three brothers sent him warning glances, as if to say: Dare to badmouth us in front of our sister? Just try it!

David chose to ignore them. "Without them, we have more time to spend with Rose — with Grandma. Isn’t that better? They’ll have more time to spend with our sister undistracted once they’re done with their work. That’s great! Let me make it clear, all of you!"

He thought, Man, why do you guys look so scary when I’m speaking up for you?

David plucked up his courage. "Anyway, all of us must make time during the holidays. We’re a big family — we can’t do without anyone! We’re all spending this Christmas together!"

"Agreed!" The first to respond was Grandma from her sickbed.

Sampson also agreed.

Hunter agreed readily. "No problem."
