Devoted Love:The Billionaire's Precious Wife novel Chapter 746

Chapter 746: Chapter 747

His excitement was palpable as he said, "Ms. Rosemary, you finally made it! Mr. Albright was waiting by the door, craning his neck to anticipate your arrival. Eventually, he got overwhelmed by all the guests cozying up to him and ducked out to his room. You just missed him by a whisker."

"Let him have his moment of peace. We’ll call him out once all the other seniors have arrived," Rosemary replied, understanding that such events could be exhausting for the elderly. She figured it would do him

some good to have a breather.

The butler noticed the rectangular box in Rosemary’s hands, about the size of two smartphones, and said with a smile, "Is that a birthday present for Mr. Albright? He’ll be thrilled to see it!"

Rosemary was about to hand over the gift to the butler when he added, "Better you give it to him personally. Nothing would make him happier than receiving it straight from your hands, Ms. Rosemary."

Rosemary nodded, "Alright, I’ll do that in a bit." 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

She walked in with the gift.

Serena eyed her, biting her lip in frustration. Damn it, she thought, Rosemary was dressed so simply, and yet she managed to draw the attention of many the moment she entered the room.

"She’s so pretty!" Lindsay couldn’t help but exclaim, "Why is she here alone? How could Mr. Albright invited such a young lady? What’s her story?"

Despite Serena’s meticulous effort to make herself look best, fragrant and polished from head to toe, she couldn’t outshine Rosemary’s radiant beauty.

Her face was cool and noble, and those clear, piercing eyes were impossible to look away from.

"She’s Romeo’s latest girlfriend," Serena suddenly revealed.

"What?" Lindsay gasped, covering her mouth in disbelief, glancing between Rosemary and Serena, stuttering in shock, "You mean?"

Serena nodded, confirming the unspoken.

Lindsay was utterly astounded, unable to believe that such an aloof-looking girl would be involved with someone else’s fiancé.

Pure wickedness!

Other ladies started gossiping as they noticed Rosemary.

"Who’s that girl? Why is she here alone?"

"And her outfit is so casual."

Everyone at the birthday party was dressed to the nines, hoping to catch the eye of the influential attendees, having spent considerable time on their attire.

Some flaunted limited-edition jewelry, others had their eyebrows meticulously crafted.

But Rosemary wore a simple, casual ensemble, effortlessly chic with her beauty and fair skin.

"Maybe she’s a servant’s daughter sneaking a peek at the high life?"

"But could a servant’s daughter have such poise?"

"Some of these maids get involved with the wealthy. It wouldn’t be surprising for them to have a daughter with some finesse. I think she looks like one of those girls out to snag a rich kid."

"Mr. Albright’s guests are all from the older generation. This girl isn’t accompanying any elder; she’s here on her own. Maybe I should go ask her!"

Roxanne approached first, her smile tinged with condescension, "Hi there, may I ask who you’re accompanying?"

Rosemary didn’t recognize the woman before her, but considering this was Grandpa Eugene’s birthday bash, she wasn’t sure how this woman was connected to him. She replied in a cool tone, "I came by myself."

Roxanne was visibly taken aback, "You didn’t come with a referral?"

She picked up a pastry and was just about to take a bite when her phone buzzed. Taking it out, she saw a string of messages from a group of her grandpa and his friends.

Grandpa Eugene, [Wondering what’s keeping Rose. She hasn’t replied to my messages. Maybe she’s caught up in something urgent tonight and can’t make it.]

Nelson. [LOL. Why do I suddenly feel like laughing?]

Beck. [If she can’t make it, she can’t make it. You’re not only living for this year, you know. There will be more birthdays. We’re not getting any younger, why so sentimental? If not today, there’s always

tomorrow.]

Grandpa Eugene. [Would you be this cavalier if Rose missed your birthday?]

Beck. [Exactly, because it’s not my birthday, I can afford to be cheeky! Don’t be down, I’m on my way to cheer you up. Wait for me!]

Grandpa Eugene. [Who needs you.]

Exiting the chat, he checked his WhatsApp and saw Rosemary still hadn’t replied. The network must be patchy where she is, he thought, and then he fired off another message.

"Pumpkin, where are you? Haven’t been to the estate in a while, huh? Forgot the way? If you’re nearby,

let your granddad pick you up!"

Reading the message, Rosemary almost laughed.

She was about to reply when a new message from Charles popped up.

[Rose, are you already there, just letting Eugene stew a bit? Take my advice, make him wait a little longer. The old man needs to learn patience, always huffing and puffing...at his age, he should be taking it easy.]
