Devoted Love:The Billionaire's Precious Wife novel Chapter 691

Chapter 691: Chapter 691

"Even if you hadn’t bent over backwards to get close to them, just based on the love of the past eighteen years, you’re still the apple of their eyes. Take a good look at yourself. Since I’ve returned to this family, have your living expenses been cut back at all?"

"No, but I’ve had less than you, Rosemary," Serena shot back angrily. "Mom, Dad, my brother and sister-in-law, grandparents—do they treat you the same as they treat me?"

"Isn’t what they’ve given you over these eighteen years enough?" Rosemary’s gaze turned icy as she suddenly realized this person was too greedy.

"Let’s put it this way: if they bought you a purse and they got me the same one, I wouldn’t have any complaints. But they order you hundreds of limited edition pieces! They give you a credit card with no spending limit! They hand over the company for you to manage, let you call the shots on everything, and even when there’s a gala, I’m not invited! How can you say they treat me like family with such blatant favoritism?"

Rosemary knew exactly which event Serena was referring to.

"Not taking you is for your own good."

Serena scoffed. "Then why are you always included? Are they not good to you?"

"I serve my purpose."

"So what you’re saying is, I’m useless and just drag them down?"

"If that’s how you want to interpret it."

Serena nearly laughed out of sheer frustration.

"Rosemary, do you know what I hate about you? I hate that holier-than-thou attitude of yours! As if you’re the only one capable of handling things, while I’m just trash in comparison!"

Rosemary didn’t say anything.

"All I want is to stay in this family, not to be cast aside," Serena’s voice broke, her distress palpable. "Why is that so hard? Why does it have to be so difficult?"

Rosemary watched her unravel, unable to help but ask, "What’s so hard about it? Is someone driving you away? Has anyone treated you like trash?"

Serena lifted her eyes to meet Rosemary’s steady gaze.

"Does anyone look down on you because I understand medicine and you don’t? Has anyone stopped you from going to school because you’re not a straight-A student? When the family visited me at school, did they not visit you too? Isn’t what they’ve done so far enough? What more do you want? Should I have a Romeo, and you should have one too?"

Serena’s tears halted, stunned.

"Even if I hadn’t come back, Romeo wouldn’t have fallen for you. That night, he came to the Collins family to call off your engagement."

Serena’s expression froze. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

Call off the engagement?

"He told me himself," Rosemary locked eyes with Serena, enunciating each word. "It wasn’t me who stole your man or your things. What’s yours can never be taken by anyone else, and what’s not meant for you will leave you eventually."

Serena couldn’t believe it. That night, Romeo brought so many gifts to the Collins family to break off the engagement with her.

Then why did he later change his story, claiming it was to visit his fiancée?

Could it be that by then, he had already fallen for Rosemary at first sight?

With that thought, Serena’s heart twisted in unwillingness as she scrutinized Rosemary.

What was so great about her that everyone—including Romeo, her parents and grandparents, even her brother and sister-in-law—favored her?

Was it just because of blood ties and those few skills she possessed?

Just then, Rosemary’s phone buzzed. It was Romeo calling.

She tapped to answer, hearing Romeo’s charming voice on the other end.

"How’s your grandpa feeling?"
