5.2% Devoted Love:The Billionaire's Precious Wife / Chapter 15: CHAPTER 15

Chương 15: CHAPTER 15

"Swiftly find yourself a girlfriend as well, so certain individuals can witness the blissful life of having a partner!" Phillip hinted with a purpose.

Romeo opened the breakfast he brought and placed it before him, saying, "If Carl had a girlfriend, would you take over his work?"

"I would!" unexpectedly, Phillip readily agreed, and Carl was moved.

"I would, not! But, Carl, if you have a girlfriend, I'll make sure this lad gives you some time off. At the very least, you won't need to work overtime on weekends anymore! I'll also prepare numerous wedding gifts for you! Furthermore, I'll have him hire a few more people to share your workload!"

Upon hearing this, Carl was deeply touched.

"Especially regarding your salary, it must be increased!"

"Yes, yes, exactly! Look at Carl's understanding and sensibility! Unlike you, never listening!" Phillip praised others while simultaneously complaining about his own grandson.

Carl basked in the compliments…

"Carl, there's a project in Antarctica that needs some hands."

Upon hearing Romeo's words, Carl became flustered, "Mr. McMillian, what I meant was…"

"You pack your things, and you'll leave tomorrow."

"Mr. McMillian!" Carl immediately sought help with a pleading look toward Phillip.

As wise as ever, Phillip skillfully defused the situation, "Carl, I need you to come to me every day after work, just to chat with me. I'm terribly bored!"

"Mr. McMillian, please consider… When you say it like that… " Carl tried to use Phillip's words to his advantage.

Just then, the doorknob turned, and someone surreptitiously pushed the door open.

"It's me, Mr. Phillip," a disheveled Susana entered the room, noticing others were present, she hastily composed herself, "Mr. McMillian, Carl, you're up so early as well?"

It was not yet eight in the morning, and visiting hours should have been prohibited for patients….

Susana must have used her old work badge to get in, took the fire escape, and avoided the cameras to sneak in…

"Who let you in?" Romeo didn't make it hard for her yesterday out of respect for the hospital director.

But she had the audacity to come in without anyone's permission.

"Mr. Phillip, Mr. McMillian, give me another chance!" Susana suddenly knelt down, "I really don't want to leave this profession, please let me work at this hospital again… Phillip, for the sake of me providing

advice for your condition, for the sake of me being your doctor…"

She was desperate!

"Was she kicked out of the medical profession?" Phillip asked Carl.

"Yes, she didn't take any measures when your condition worsened yesterday. Instead, she tried to end your life prematurely. She had a bad intention. Miss Rosemary who treated you yesterday said she doesn't deserve to be a doctor! Dr. Pierce kicked her out of this profession after hearing about her actions." Carl looked at this venomous woman, giving her a cold look.

"It's that bitch who had a grudge against me, tarnishing my reputation in front of the hospital director!

Phillip, I was wronged, I have always been dedicated to your condition, you should remember…"

Before Susana could finish her sentence, Romeo's face darkened, giving off an unhappy aura.

Carl couldn't believe that even at this stage, this woman still wanted to distort the truth? To slander Miss Rosemary?

Did she think they were blind yesterday? Did she still hope that they hadn't seen the truth?

"Ms. Susana, I advise you to think carefully before you speak or act!" Carl furrowed his brows and harshly reminded her.

Yesterday, she advocated for the use of sedatives and heart soothers!

And now, the one slandering others is her!

Miss Rosemary is Phillip's lifesaver, yet she called her a bitch…

"All members of your family are not allowed to step into Summerfield from now on." Phillip on the bed suddenly spoke, "Kick her out."

Susana originally came to plead, but she didn't expect to involve her family, "Mr. Phillip, what did I do wrong to upset you? Just because of yesterday's misunderstanding?"

She clung to the bed leg, refusing to leave, "Mr. Phillip, let me explain…"

"Hmph!" Phillip was so angry that his face turned red, "You're not qualified to talk to me!"

"Mr. Phillip, if you don't forgive me today, I can only die here!"

"Then go die Phillip didn't care about her life or death, "Carl, give her the knife."

Carl picked up the fruit knife from the table and threw it in front of her. The knife landed on the ground with a crisp sound, startling Susana. She had only intended to scare Phillip and never actually intended

to end her life.

"Sir…" Seeing that Phillip still refused to forgive her, and her pleas and suicide threats were ineffective,Susana could only cry, sobbing as she spoke, "My family is poor, and I am the only daughter Since I was young, I have been the hope of my entire family. My dream is to become a doctor who saves lives"

"A doctor? What qualifications do you have to be a doctor?" Phillip was infuriated, "Don't think I couldn't hear your conversation yesterday when I was lying in bed! It was you who advocated for the use of the calming potion and the soothing elixir. The young girl explicitly said that taking them would be fatal, but you still insisted! This woman who was unworthy of being a doctor just wouldn't stop!"

"I,I…" Susana was shocked that the old man could hear yesterday's conversation, leaving her

speechless for a few seconds, unsure of how to explain. "That young girl said that the calming potion and soothing elixir would only provide half an hour of clarity before irreversible consequences. If I

hadn't been lucky enough to encounter that girl passing by and treating me, I would have been dead by now! You want a chance to plead with me?!"

"I'm sparing you by driving you out of this profession and out of Summerfield. This is already on account of Dr. Pierce's face. Don't test my patience, or you'll face even more severe punishment!"

"That young girl was right. Calling you a mediocre doctor would be praising you too much! You can't even compare to a teenage girl"

Susana's face turned pale, twisted into an unpleasant expression, "Mr. Phillip…"

"Carl, the medical staff who advocated using the calming potion and soothing elixir yesterday, I remember there was also a doctor who tried to shift blame onto that young girl. All of these people will be dismissed! They are not fit to be doctors!"

As Phillip said this, he glanced at the woman beside the bed, "Aren't you leaving? Do I have to get someone to escort you out?"

"My lord, your health hasn't recovered, don't get angry… Ms. Susana, can't you understand plain English?" Carl said coldly.

Susana knew there was no hope left in this matter, after whispering an apology, she left in a hurry.


Chương 16: CHAPTER 16

"Who was that girl yesterday?"

Once Phillip and the others left, and he calmed down a bit, he turned around and asked, "Did we thank her properly?"

"We gave her a check already" Carl said, full of admiration when he mentioned the girl. "Who would've thought a girl in her teens would be such a miracle worker!"

Truly, it was so unexpected!

"That young girl just happened to pass by and fortuitously discovered your condition, going against the crowd's opinions to save you!" If not for her "interference, Phillip would have probably passed away…"

"She is such a kind and capable young girl…" In Phillip's mind, a faint image of an innocent face appeared. Although somewhat blurry, he could vaguely sense that she was a beautiful girl with a

pleasant voice.

Unfortunately, she was too young, and with Romeo and Serena already engaged… Otherwise, having her as his granddaughter-in-law wouldn't be a bad idea!

"Did you note down the young girl's contact information?" Phillip suddenly asked, "I want to thank her in person."

Carl was taken aback and quickly looked at Romeo. After all, he had asked for her phone number yesterday!

"You better not bother her," Romeo coolly refused.

"What's the matter? Can't I meet my lifesaving benefactor and express my gratitude in person?"

What Phillip was thinking was that so many experts and renowned doctors couldn't cure his ailment,yet this young girl managed to save him at a critical moment. What did that signify?

It meant that her medical skills far surpassed theirs!

If he remembered correctly, the young girl was only seventeen or eighteen years old, and he happened to have another grandson around her age…

If he could successfully match them, it would be a splendid match.

"Do you happen to have her contact information?"

Phillip remembered the look Carl gave Romeo just now, this kid definitely has her phone number or WhatsApp account.

"I don't care, you must bring that girl here." Phillip tried his best.

In the end, Romeo relented, "Whether she comes or not, depends on her."

Phillip's "plot" was half successful and he quickly said, "Of course!"

If she doesn't come, it must be because she's scared of his cold demeanor!

Seeing Romeo ready to leave…

"Wait!" Phillip looked as if he thought of something and added, "When you talk to the girl, be nice! Be gentle! If you don't know how, let Carl teach you! Don't scare her away, got it?"

She might be his future granddaughter-in-law…

Romeo thought to himself: Isn't he gentle? Isn't he polite? Does he need someone else to teach him?

Carl also complained: My lord, don't hurt me, Mr. McMillian finally forgot about the Antarctica project…

"No matter what, she's the one who saved my life, you can't be rude to her!" Phillip was afraid that the young girl would be scared of his cold attitude.

Meanwhile.

Kenneth and Louisa approached the dining table, placing a variety of breakfast items in front of their two daughters.

"This is the chef's freshly made pastries. Here, Rose, this is yours. Be careful, it's hot."

"Serena, you've been staying at school for a month, and you look like you've lost weight. Come on, eat more."

Serena sweetly smiled, "Dad, Mom, don't worry about taking care of me. Give more to sister instead.

Have I ever lacked good food since childhood?" Louisa chuckled, thinking that this child was indeed sensible. She hadn't tried to exclude Rosemary despite her sudden arrival, but instead, she considered her stepsister in everything.

The scene was much warmer than they had imagined.

"Dad, this is the black tea you like to drink with pastries. Shall I get you some tea?" Serena stood up and served tea for Kenneth, then promptly served Louisa as well

"Mom, enjoy it."

They hadn't expected Serena to be so considerate. Smiling affectionately, they lifted their teacups and took a sip.

Serena seemed like the triumphant victor after a successful battle, deliberately glancing at Rosemary beside her.

What if she was the biological daughter? After so many years of living together, no one understood their parents' eating habits better than she did.

How could Rosemary not notice Serena's little scheming? Her gaze remained tranquil as water as she calmly enjoyed the delicate pastries on her plate, seemingly indifferent

"Dear sister, I don't know what you like to drink…" Serena intended to let Rosemary prepare it herself.

However, before she could finish her sentence, Rosemary casually said, "Coffee, please"

Serena was taken aback. Did Rosemary mean for her to make coffee for her?

"You really dote on your sister…" Kenneth misunderstood, thinking that Serena wanted to voluntarily prepare coffee for Rosemary. He happily chimed in, "Rose, that's just how Serena is. She cares about

her own family a lot. If you refuse her offer, she won't be pleased."

Rosemary looked up at her and said, "Then, I'll trouble you for that."

Upon hearing Kenneth's words, Serena found herself in a difficult position. But since things had come to this point, she could only stand up with a smile and graciously fetch the coffee pot.

From the corner of her eye, she noticed Rosemary was wearing a white chiffon dress today.

The fabric of the dress was thin, and brewing hot coffee required high water temperature…

If Rosemary were accidentally scalded…

With just a glance, Rosemary saw through Serena's little scheme hidden within her heart.

After brewing the coffee, Serena was about to pour it into Rosemary's cup when she heard Rosemary say,

"Don't pour too much."

Serena didn't expect her to see through her plot so quickly, she gritted her teeth secretly, she wanted to pretend she didn't hear it, but Rosemary added, "That's enough, thank you."

Serena could only stop awkwardly, smiling and saying, "Sister, you're really careful, I've been pouring tea for my parents for so many years and I've never spilled it, are you afraid I'll scald you?"

Rosemary looked at her with clear eyes, a light smile on her lips, "I saw you almost fill the glasses for Mom and Dad, so I wanted less."

This behavior is also a kind of respect.

"Rose, you don't have to be so formal at home…" Louisa didn't expect this kid to be so sensible,learning table manners so well.

On the other hand, Serena's words just now seemed a bit petty.

But, Serena probably didn't mean any harm.

Kenneth lightened the mood with a laugh, "Rose, Serena, exam results should be out soon, have you guys thought about which university you want to go to?"

He put down his tea cup, looking at them with kind expectancy.

After Serena sat down, she felt the need to put Rosemary in her place. So she jumped the gun, saying with a hint of pride, "I'll probably choose Summerfield College."

Upon hearing "Summerfield College", Rosemary lifted her eyes, twinkling with an indiscernible emotion.

Serena naturally noticed this gaze and said with a smile, "Although many classmates say this exam was hard, I found it easier than the practice problems we usually do. I'm not feeling any pressure, I'm confident I'll get into Summerfield College."

"Summerfield College is the best university in our country, but… I remember you were planning to study abroad, weren't you?" Kenneth looked at her, a bit puzzled in his eyes.
