In the hospital room.
Lincoln Green’s ears finally quieted down, but his expression showed no sign of relaxing.
He had been married to Rose Taylor for ten years; he never expected things to come to this point, even just a few days ago.
But as the truth slowly unfolded, it was even more brutal than he had imagined.
Yesterday, the lawyer brought him not only evidence of Rose Taylor’s recent asset transfers but also evidence of her embezzling company funds to invest in properties over the years, along with his blood test results.
It clearly indicated that he had been chronically poisoned.
The toxins found in his blood were the same as those in the medication Rose Taylor had injected him with last time.
The difference was that if the dose had fully entered his body last time, he would undoubtedly be dead.
Lincoln Green believed he had not treated Rose Taylor and her daughter badly, yet they not only mistreated Abigail over the years but also wanted to kill him. Even now, they were still dreaming that he would forgive them!
Just for what they did to Abigail, they deserved a thousand deaths.
As long as he didn’t think about Abigail, Lincoln Green was fine. But when he thought Abigail might not be Abigail and had been tortured to death by those women, he felt a chill all over his body. These days, he had nightmares every night, hearing Abigail calling him, “Daddy, save me, Daddy, save me…”
In a daze, he saw Minnie holding a little girl, asking him why he didn’t take good care of their daughter!
These things tormented Lincoln Green one by one, leaving him restless at all times.
And today, with Rose Taylor causing a scene, he became more aware of how foolish he had been.
His whole being felt soulless, lying on the hospital bed in despair.
The special care nurse came in and took a quick glance, reporting the situation back to Piers’ Mansion.
At this time, Abigail sat by the koi pond.
It had been four months, and little Teddy was learning to roll over.
The old man had ordered a two-meter by two-meter soft blanket, spread in the yard. The whole family surrounded the little guy, watching him roll over.
Abigail sat nearby, reading recent medical news. Occasionally, she glanced over and saw the Piers family members, led by the old man, rhythmically chanting, “Come on, come on…”
It didn’t look like they were watching Teddy learn to roll over but rather… well, like watching a monkey doing tricks.
Every time she watched, Abigail couldn’t help covering her face. Meanwhile, Aunt Claudia and Kelly were excitedly recording videos on the side.
Abigail simply couldn’t imagine what little Teddy would think when he saw this footage in the future!
“What are you thinking about?” Just as Abigail couldn’t help but shake her head, Brandon Piers arrived uninvited and sat on the chair next to her.
Abigail seriously looked at the man, “Aren’t you busy? I heard the Piers family is fiercely competing for control, don’t you need to go to Swallow City to take charge?”
Living like a leisurely prince every day, wasn’t he afraid of being suppressed by the other two branches?
“Oh, almost forgot, now it’s August. Medical school starts in September, what are your plans?” Brandon had never had such a laid-back life before, daily handling work, then playing Tai Chi and walking the child. Life was so pleasant; he almost forgot he had to return to Swallow City.
“Ah, medical school?” Abigail hadn’t remembered this matter.
“Hmm?” Brandon looked at Abigail, feeling conflicted and worried. Was she really willing to go to Swallow City with him? After all, if she was truly Abigail, she would definitely be reluctant to leave Jeffrey Foster.
Just thinking about this woman caring for another man in her heart made Brandon very irritable.
Yet he could only use this method to test if she was willing to go to Swallow City.
“I guess I’ll go.” Abigail hesitated for a moment before answering. She had not attended university in the country in her previous life. She had heard that the local university atmosphere was good, and now she was Abigail Green. She couldn’t start practicing medicine with just a high school diploma, so she had to attend university anyway. As for how to attend, that was her problem.
Brandon secretly breathed a sigh of relief. As long as she agreed to go to Swallow City, it was good.
“Yes, once Lincoln Green’s matters are settled, we’ll go together,” Brandon said nonchalantly.
Abigail didn’t think much about it, “Okay.”
Brandon felt satisfied.
Abigail suddenly thought of something, “Lincoln Green’s lawyer works for you?”
“Yes, he asked me to help him,” Brandon shrugged.
“Thank you.” No matter what, this was a Green family matter. Brandon was helping Lincoln Green, but more importantly, he was helping her.
“Fool,” Brandon didn’t like how the chubby one was so polite to him. He disliked it and called her a fool. Thinking about today’s events, he said, “Rose Taylor went to the hospital today. Clark Stone was there too.”
“I saw it. Lincoln Green didn’t disappoint this time.” Abigail also received the special care nurse’s report and knew Rose Taylor’s actions today.
“Hmm, inform me before you go out recently.” Brandon was worried the mother-daughter duo would act desperately. They hadn’t found Gordon, who previously attacked Abigail. It seemed they had a top-tier hacker helping them. He had assigned people to investigate the rankings, and the team was currently tracking them.
Abigail nodded, but in her mind, she was thinking about Felix Harrison from yesterday’s files.
She felt the young man looked familiar, but she couldn’t remember why.
Brandon noticed Abigail didn’t seem to take his words to heart. He reached out and ruffled her hair, “Keep it in mind.”
“Can you stop touching me all the time? It’s not appropriate!” Abigail’s hair instantly turned into a bird’s nest. She glared at the man in annoyance!
“Do I?” After spending so much time together, he felt the chubby one had everything good to touch; even her hair was softer than his, very comfortable to touch.
Abigail nodded.
Brandon casually responded with an “oh.” Then, under Abigail’s stare, he suddenly moved forward, his long fingers with distinct joints pinching her cheeks, “How about this?”
“Brandon Piers, you jerk!” Abigail hated when people pinched her cheeks the most, especially squeezing the chubby bits. It was too annoying!
After her breakthrough on the scale at the charity gala, Abigail had been regularly weighing herself these past few days. However, her weight seemed to have stabilized. Although she lost some weight, it was less than two pounds, and the progress was very slow.
She felt anxious but couldn’t do anything about it.
Weighing oneself really required a long interval to witness any surprise.
Yet this man kept pinching her cheeks, reminding her of the unchanging weight.
“Yes, I’m a jerk.” Brandon didn’t care about Abigail’s anger and pinched her cheeks again.
Abigail took a deep breath and realized something was wrong. She looked up at the people around little Teddy, and they were all gazing at the two of them.
In an instant, Abigail’s face turned red, and even the fingers holding her face turned red, as Brandon realized what he was doing.
“Let go of me!” Abigail murmured.
Brandon quickly released her cheeks, coughed to cover his embarrassment, and awkwardly returned to his chair.
The old man chuckled and then addressed everyone, “Hehe, alright, back to watching Teddy! Come on, Teddy, you can do it! Don’t give up!”
Brandon, “…”
