Devoted Love:The Billionaire's Precious Wife

"Everything I have is yours too—feel free to take anything you fancy when you come over to my place!"

Ophelia said with a warm smile, her arm linked with her friend's, "No matter when, no matter what happens, I'll always be your rock-solid support. The whole Almond has your back! Of course, with your current mojo, you hardly need our little hill for support, haha. But just so you know, I'm always here for you!"

Rosemary's eyes softened, "I feel the same about you."

As they strolled and chatted, Ophelia suddenly remembered something and asked, "Oh, by the way, at what point did you learn that Sean started Drift Swifts?"

"After I came back to our country."

Ophelia nodded in realization, "That explains why you guys weren't at each other's throats. It was all a misunderstanding because you didn't know each other's true identities. What a huge misunderstanding!"

Rosemary's lips curled into a smile, "You seemed pretty shocked to find out Eagle works for Sean, huh?"

"Rose, you won't believe it, that Eagle guy has been the thorn in my side, blocking my projects!"

Ophelia exclaimed, still reeling from the revelation. "How much must your Sean despise me, sending Eagle to hassle me time and again. Sean and I are incompatible, like oil and water—first it was the car race, now our projects..."

Ophelia couldn't help but add, "If I'd known Sheen was Sean, your brother, I would've picked a day when he was out to come knocking!"

Continuing her analysis, she said, "No wonder at the last race, you mentioned he asked about me. I thought it was because I was trying to win over his track and make it public, and that caught his attention. But it turns out, he's the one holding up my projects."

"Sean doesn't hate you," Rosemary suddenly revealed. "On the contrary, he has a certain fondness for you."

"You mean fondness in what way?"

"Why else would he block your projects for no good reason?"

It was all to keep her in Belloria longer, so he could watch her from a distance, to keep up with her.

"I think he just can't stand me! I called 'Brother Sean' one too many times earlier, and he seemed pretty annoyed."

Rosemary laughed but didn't spell it out.

Sean's feelings were for Sean to express.

After a tour in the garden, Rosemary led Ophelia to her room.

"Wow, your room is like three times the size of mine." Ophelia gasped as she stepped inside. "Your family really spoils you—every single decor piece looks exorbitantly priced."

Not just the decor, even the simplest items like the tissue box and the bedside lamp were top-notch brands.

And that's not to mention the bedding.

"Is this your walk-in closet?" Ophelia was speechless as she took in the sight.

Even as an Almond heiress, her home didn't boast such an array of beautiful clothing and accessories.

The closet was impressively large, with a variety of garments, shoes, and handbags all neatly organized.

Each item looked brand-new.

"You haven't worn any of these, have you? They look so fresh." Ophelia picked up a dress and felt the high-quality fabric.

"These look just like your designs? Oh, I remembered. A while back, didn't you say your parents and then your fiancé each ordered a batch of a hundred items for you. They didn't happen to place the order with LY, did they? So, how much did you make out of this."

"Ms. Almond, stop teasing me."

"Compared with you, I feel like a pauper! Honestly, I've never had so many clothes at once in my life!"

After the tour of the closet, Ophelia was full of wonder. "Now I finally get why Kelly said you made the right choice coming back to this family. From the moment I arrived, I could feel the tender loving care from your family. It's not just about the emotional support, but in the material way, too. I'm feeling like chewing out the Harris again."

Rosemary couldn't help but laugh. "Arguing with them is just a waste of time."

"Absolutely, let's not give them a second of ours. Let them flounder in the abyss. Have you heard that Yolanda has hit rock bottom."

Hmph!

That's what Yolanda deserved!

She was such a snob when she was the heiress of the Harris, always picking on Rose.

Without Rose, the Harris would be nobodies!

"But, what's going on with your family? Do you need my help?" Ophelia couldn't help but ask as she noticed the swarm of security guards patrolling the grounds. "Just say the word, and I'll have people here in no time."

Rosemary filled her in on Erik's situation and then said, "We're just waiting for the puppet master to walk right into the trap now."

"I can't believe there's someone out there even worse than the Harris, more vile and despicable. You should be careful these next few days."

"Don't worry, with all these people around, and besides, it's not that easy to get to me."

"That's true. With your skills, there aren't many who can stand up to you."

They chatted the night away until the hands of the clock were nearing eleven, and Ophelia finally said goodbye, her voice full of reluctance.

"I'll celebrate with you the day your true identity is revealed."

"Definitely."

As they walked downstairs, Louisa rose from the couch and said warmly, "Ophelia, leaving so soon? It's still early, why not stay a little longer?"

"No, Auntie, it's quite late already."

"Why don't you stay here for the night, save you the trip back and forth. You'll be attending Rose's homecoming banquet in a few days, right? I'm fond of you. If you stayed, Rose would have company, and I could see you more often."

"Thank you, Auntie, but Rose's leaving the country tomorrow, so I'd be alone anyway. I'll come visit another time."

"Rose, you're going abroad?" Louisa looked at Rosemary in surprise.

"Yeah, I'm escorting Rose tomorrow. Don't worry, she's just delivering some outfits to a client. We'll go and come back the same day, it won't interfere with the upcoming plans."

Sean knew the family wanted to surprise Rose.

"Then you be careful, and take good care of your sister." Louisa was obviously worried about his injury, but it wasn't the right moment to discuss it, so she decided to talk about it later.

Then she turned back to Ophelia, "Dear, when you visit, you don't need to bring anything. It's too formal. Boys, help Ophelia with her things to the car."

The brothers immediately volunteered. One of them said, "Sean's free, he can do it."

Sean was thrilled at the proposal.

"Auntie, you're too kind. It's just a small gift from me."

"Your consideration is appreciated, but we shouldn't accept these gifts. You're still young, how can I take these from a child."

The two continued their polite argument, each insisting.

"Why don't we split it? Take half, and return half." Rosemary interjected.

The Collins family could accept half of Ophelia's housewarming gifts and return her with some other items, and the friendly dispute would be solved.
