Before signing her na, Rosemary added a line: Forever your Rose (lody).
Grandma Shirley saw this and couldn’t stop laughing. She imdiately asked Brodie to find a picture fra and put the paper in it herself.
"Darling, it’s about ti. The kids must be hungry; let’s have dinner first."
Phillip’s words fell on deaf ears.
After Grandma Shirley frad Rosemary’s signature, she placed it on the bedside table and even asked Roo to help her take a picture with Rosemary.
Phillip hurriedly said, "I want to join. Let take a picture with you guys, too."
"You, step aside." Grandma Shirley wanted to have a few solo shots with Rosemary.
Phillip moved aside, watching Grandma Shirley hugging Rosemary and beaming at the cara. He couldn’t help but feel a twinge of jealousy.
She had never been this close and intimate with him since she woke up.
After the photo session, Roo, noticing Phillip’s frustration, kindly said, "Grandpa, your turn."
Phillip, being called out, was instantly as happy as a kid.
But the next second, Roo handed him the phone, "Help take a few shots with grandma and Rose."
Phillip was speechless. Was he excluded???
"Actually, Brodie could help with the pictures," Phillip tried to join them.
But Grandma Shirley disagreed, "There’s no spare room here."
Spare? So he was spare.
After taking the photos, with her left arm around Rosemary and her right arm around Roo, Grandma Shirley finally said, "Alright, Brodie, have the kitchen serve the food. Rose must be hungry."
"Darling, I haven’t taken my pictures yet!" Phillip, disregarding everything, squeezed into the middle and directed Brodie, "Quick, help take a few pictures!"
If he waited any longer, Grandma Shirley wouldn’t cooperate!
Brodie hurriedly pressed the shutter. Phillip in the fra was making a gesture, seemingly extrely happy to take a picture with his awake wife.
"Darling, let push your wheelchair to join the kids for dinner." Phillip personally lifted his wife onto the wheelchair.
Roo and Brodie wanted to lend a hand, but he shooed them away, "I’m not so old that I can’t lift her. Darling, even if you gain another 10 kilograms, I can still carry you."
"Not 10 kilograms. If I gain 2 more kilograms, your old back would probably get hurt." Grandma Shirley could see he was struggling.
"Who says, no matter how much weight you gain, it’s not a problem! I will keep fit from now on." As Phillip said this, he looked at Brodie, "You supervise from now on!"
"Yes."
The family of four was chatting and laughing as they went downstairs, where a lavish dinner was already laid out.
"Grandpa Phillip, you’ve prepared too much."
Rosemary looked at the food in front of her. There were definitely more than twenty dishes, which the four of them could never finish.
Each dish was not only made of rare ingredients but also posed a considerable challenge to the chef’s cooking skills.
It’s safe to say this dinner was beyond luxurious.
"Your grandma said this is her first dinner with you. We can’t just go through the motions," Phillip added with a smile.
Grandma Shirley personally handed Rosemary her cutlery.
Rosemary noticed her shaking hands. Although she was still recovering, she still wanted to do sothing for Rosemary.
Rosemary felt warm inside and took the cutlery, "Thank you, Grandma Shirley."
"Grandpa Phillip must have told you when you first ca here to treat Fairfield Manor as your own ho. Today, I want to tell you the sa thing. You can eat whatever you want here; don’t be polite, and if there’s anything you’re not happy with, let us know at any ti."
After Grandma Shirley finished speaking, she turned to her grandson, "Roo, you need to keep serving Rose. You know her taste, serve her more."
"I will." Roo gave Rosemary a gentle look again.
Rosemary could feel the love from the two old people, especially Grandma Shirley. Although she was weak and needed help to eat, she still tried hard to serve Rosemary.
Rosemary moved and said, "Grandma Shirley, don’t trouble yourself. I can do it."
The al was finished in a harmonious atmosphere.
Rosemary suddenly thought, would the ending have been different if the Harris family had such an atmosphere in the past?
Roo seed to read her thoughts and gently said, "The Harris family is not your ho. This is."
Rosemary looked up at him in surprise. How did he know her thoughts so accurately?
"The people from the Harris family are ungrateful. Such an atmosphere would never exist there, so there’s no what if."
Everything was destined.
Rosemary was surprised, but her eyes also beca softer. She didn’t expect him to understand her thoughts so well.
After dinner, Grandma Shirley was in high spirits and invited Rosemary to the living room for coffee.
But Rosemary could see that she was getting tired, so she planned to leave after finishing her coffee, allowing Grandma Shirley to rest.
Just then, Brodie ca over to report, "Mr. Winters heard that Shirley woke up, so he ca to visit."
"Mr. Winters is here?" Phillip was all smiles, telling Brodie to let him in.
"Since we have a guest." Rosemary was just about to get up and leave when she saw Phillip wave his hand and say, "Hold your horses. I’ve got to introduce you to Mr. Winters. Let him get a little green-eyed, knowing my grandson has a fiancée."
Brodie brought in an older gentleman, followed by a young girl.
The girl was only about seventeen or eighteen, with long, straight hair cascading over her shoulders and delicate skin. Her eyes were filled with pride, which surprised everyone present.
"Please take a seat." Phillip invited them to sit down, "My wife’s awakening is all thanks to my grandson’s fiancée!"
"Really?" Mr. Winters looked at the girl beside him, finding her even prettier than his granddaughter, with delicate features and an extraordinary aura.
Rosemary also greeted him with a smile.
Mr. Winters was a bit puzzled. Weren’t there supposed to be a marriage agreent between the McMillian and Collins families? Wasn’t Roo supposed to marry Serena Collins?
How did it suddenly beco this girl?
Who was this girl? She seed even more beautiful than Serena, with a great aura and voice.
But what was her background? How could she surpass Serena and be with Roo?
Did she pull so strings behind the scene?
With these thoughts, Mr. Winters’ impression of Rosemary dropped a bit.
And that girl gave Rosemary a proud look, seemingly a bit hostile.
"She’s got so many good points, I could just go on and on."
Phillip trailed off as Brodie brought in the coffee, then continued, "Have a cup of coffee first. It’s made from beans from a 300-year-old tree, and the taste is really rich!"
After his words, he turned to Rosemary with a warm smile, "Rose, give this coffee a try and see how you like it. If you’re into it, feel free to take more to school."
Enid Winters was taken aback. Recalling an auction a few months ago, these coffee beans were sold for a thousand dollars a gram. And Grandpa Phillip was just casually suggesting this girl take them to school?
Wasn’t this just a waste?
Such expensive coffee should be savored in high-end situations with high-end people. That’s when it held value and aning.
Letting her take it to school.
Phillip must really think highly of this girl.
Rosemary took a sip from her cup, the rich and llow flavor lingering on her lips. It was indeed a great coffee.
After taking a sip, Enid glanced at Rosemary. She probably hadn’t tasted such pricey coffee in her life, had she? And how did she manage to stick around Roo and even win over Phillip? She thought that outshining Serena would be enough to be with Roo smoothly, but then this girl appeared.
Mr. Winters, after a sip of his coffee, was curious about Rosemary’s identity and couldn’t resist asking Phillip, "Your grandson’s fiancée is still in school?"
"Yeah, Westerly College specially invited her! With her brains, she doesn’t really need college, and she’s just there out of respect for that old man." Phillip responded proudly, with a bit of bragging in his tone.
Invited by Westerly College??
That eccentric old man from Westerly College thought most brilliant students were just average. Who could possibly get an invitation from him?
Before Mr. Winters could ask, Phillip couldn’t help blur the truth, "Not just Westerly College, Helgen College, Morrowind College, Sumrfield College. Even famous foreign universities are vying for her. She’s this year’s top scorer, Rosemary!"
"So she’s the top scorer. No wonder." Mr. Winters looked surprised, and he didn’t expect the top scorer his granddaughter had been grumbling about all sumr was right in front of him.
His granddaughter should’ve been the top scorer, but she had a stomach upset on the exam day, and her performance was far from her best.
Seeing that this girl not only topped the class but also scored full marks.
Her academic ability must be powerful.
"My granddaughter, Enid, is in the sa school."
Phillip was surprised by this news, "Enid’s also at Westerly College? I bet she’s heard of Rose! I heard Rose’s been the talk of the college since day one."
"Haha." Mr. Winters didn’t expect Phillip to be so fond of this quiet and well-behaved girl. He laughed, "Isn’t all the colleges having their outdoor training? Enid didn’t attend as she’s afraid of getting sunburned."
"It’s a great opportunity to train. It won’t cause sunburn. Look at Rose, she’s been training for a week, and her skin is still so smooth, haha."
Rosemary looked at the two old n comparing notes when suddenly, her phone started vibrating.
She checked the caller ID, and it was one of her subordinates. She imdiately hung up.
On the other end, her subordinate felt puzzled. Rosemary had been hanging up his calls more frequently since she got together with Roo.
She’s changed!
