Devoted Love:The Billionaire's Precious Wife novel Chapter 969

Chapter 969: Chapter 968

But today, when she laid eyes on Rosemary, she realized that there was always someone out there, ready to take the crown.

Rosemary’s features were like a breath of fresh air, her ethereal beauty lit up the room, and she carried an air of sophistication that was impossible to ignore, even when she tried to tone it down.

She had a kind of beauty that seemed untouched by the mundane world, both aloof and regal.

It was no wonder Romeo was smitten. She was even more stunning than her own sister, Luna.

"Hey there," Rosemary said, picking up on the thinly veiled hostility emanating from Cathy. Cathy was smiling, sure, but her eyes were laced with arrogance and disdain, as if Rosemary’s presence was less than welcome.

"Rose, let’s go have the feast—wait till you try my cooking!" Jennifer tugged Rosemary towards the kitchen.

Cathy tried to follow but was stopped short by Romeo’s firm grip.

"Romeo." Cathy wobbled like a chick caught by the scruff.

"You got a problem with my fiancée?"

"No." Cathy rushed to clarify, "She’s under your wing, Romeo, I wouldn’t dare."

"So, you do have a problem then?"

"Romeo." Seeing the tension, Jeffery quickly stepped in, "Cathy didn’t mean it like that. If she disrespected your girl, I’d be the first to set her straight."

"Think I can’t see for myself?" Romeo’s voice was frosty as he turned to Cathy, "Did I keep you waiting? Are you upset?"

"No." Cathy was taken aback by Romeo’s familiar coldness, "I just..."

"Romeo." Rosemary, noticing Romeo hadn’t followed, looked back.

Romeo instantly let go, and to hide any sign of the altercation from Rosemary, he casually slung an arm around Jeffery’s shoulder. "Just gonna catch up with Jeff here, be right over."

Rosemary nodded, sensing the weird vibes but choosing not to pry.

"Wait up, Rose!" Cathy suddenly called out, eager to join them.

Romeo, unimpressed by her quick move, commanded sharply, "Stop right there."

His glare was clear: Did I say you could go?

Cathy was on the verge of tears. Couldn’t she just show the future sister-in-law around? Couldn’t she try to be friendly?

"I’ll deal with you after I’m done talking to Jeff. Stay here," Romeo said, leaving Cathy fighting back tears.

"Just let them be," Jennifer reassured Rosemary as they walked away, "The siblings don’t get to see each other that often. Don’t worry, with me here, you can make yourself at home. No need to be on

edge."

Cathy watched Rosemary disappearing into the distance, her last shred of hope extinguishing.

Romeo was daunting, and Cathy’s confidence wavered, "Romeo. just let me explain."

Ever since they were kids, Romeo had been the one to instill fear in them. He had always been the one they were afraid of.

"Come here," Romeo’s voice was lighthearted yet commanding, causing Cathy to shrink back a little.
