Chapter 342: Chapter 342: How dare you mention that twenty million?
“Shut up.” Lincoln Green’s mind was a mess. He couldn’t distinguish between truth and lies for a moment.
“Honey, listen to me, it’s not what you think!” Rose Taylor hurriedly explained, but she knew too much explanation right now was useless. She could only change the subject. “Honey, shouldn’t we first get clear on the shares situation?”
Lincoln Green looked coldly at Rose Taylor and snorted, clutching his chest in anger, and asked Manager Norda, “Words are not proof. I want evidence. On what grounds is Minnie’s inheritance being managed by your Midsummer Trust?”
Manager Norda thought of how the president personally delivered the contract for Abigail Green to sign yesterday. Feeling helpless but appearing more sincere, he said, “Sorry, you no longer have any right to inquire about Mrs. Swift’s property.”
“On what grounds!” Rose Taylor shouted hysterically. How could there be no right! Master Adam said the shares belonged to Lincoln Green. On what grounds were they denied!
Moreover, the last time Lincoln Green called them for consultation, Midsummer Trust didn’t reply like this.
...
“Sorry.” Another professional apology, very sincere yet meaningless.
“Honey, what do we do… those twenty million…” Rose Taylor still had the court summons in her purse.
“How dare you mention those twenty million!” Hearing about the twenty million made Lincoln Green roar in anger. His mind was in chaos. He suddenly remembered Minnie asking him on her deathbed if he would remarry. He had sworn he wouldn’t and promised to take good care of Abigail until he grew up. But how could he not harbor a grudge?
The more he thought about it, the more his blood boiled. Had Minnie predicted he would betray her? Was that why she set this condition?
“Ugh…” Lincoln Green’s face turned green; the pain in his chest grew worse, his head was spinning, and suddenly his vision blacked out.
Bang!

“Honey!”
Lincoln Green collapsed with a thud and started convulsing. Rose Taylor hurriedly rushed up to him. “Honey, honey, wake up…”
Manager Norda glanced at the person on the ground and unhurriedly took out his phone to call for emergency services.
An hour later, Lincoln Green was rushed to the hospital for emergency treatment.
He came out two hours later.
Lincoln Green woke up, seeing various tubes attached to him. He looked at Rose Taylor in confusion. “What happened to me…”
“Honey…” Rose Taylor cried before speaking, rushing to Lincoln Green’s bedside. “Honey, what are we going to do about our family?”
“What exactly… happened to me?” Lincoln Green found it hard to speak; his mouth felt crooked. He tried to touch it but realized he still had an IV. One hand was attached to a machine, making him clumsy and stiff.
“This…” Rose Taylor looked at Lincoln Green awkwardly. She didn’t expect this useless man to have a stroke. Now, it combined with coronary heart disease. The doctor said it could likely cause hemiplegia.
Lincoln Green usually enjoyed Rose Taylor’s meek demeanor, but now he had no such mood, especially since he felt his left side paralyzed. He got very agitated. “Speak!”
“Honey, the doctor said you had an acute myocardial infarction, along with ischemic stroke. But don’t worry, with advanced medical technology, you can definitely be cured.” Rose Taylor did not hesitate anymore.
Despite what she said, Lincoln Green was speechless. He lay stiffly on the hospital bed for a long time. Yesterday, the doctor told him his heart had signs of heart failure. It could likely be arrhythmia and heart failure-type coronary heart disease, but he didn’t take it seriously at the time.
Being in the medical industry for many years, Lincoln Green knew arrhythmia and heart failure-type coronary heart disease were very rare.
He thought his anger towards those two people caused it. Who knew…
Just one day later, he fell ill? It also came with an ischemic stroke, a so-called brain infarction!
Lincoln Green’s mouth was half open, taking a long time to accept the reality before him.
“Honey… are you alright?” Seeing Lincoln Green like this, Rose Taylor worried. She initially hoped he would lose mobility, making some things easier for her to handle.
The premise was Lincoln Green obtaining the shares from the Piers. That way, she and her daughter could live in luxury for the rest of their lives, instead of like this.
If they didn’t repay the 20 million they embezzled, they would face jail time.
The Piers shares Lincoln had couldn’t be utilized, and his current condition was a burden for her.
Ruby’s legs hadn’t healed, and Lincoln Green was half paralyzed; who would help her? Most importantly, who would repay the 20 million?
“Honey, don’t scare me!” Rose Taylor stepped forward to grasp Lincoln Green’s hand.
Lincoln Green ignored her, unable to accept the combined brain infarction and heart disease leaving him half paralyzed.
“Honey, you can’t give up. What about our Green family, what about me, Ruby, and that… that 20 million you promised to help me repay?” Rose Taylor finally revealed her true intention at the end.
Now Ruby’s leg was like that. Signing with Jerry Entertainment seemed difficult.
With Lincoln Green unable to move the Piers shares, they had no value to Adam Piers anymore. The 20 million couldn’t be left to her and her daughter to handle!
Rose mentioning the 20 million made Lincoln Green’s face turn uglier. He pointed at her tremblingly. “You… you dare mention it?”
The so-called embezzling company money to fulfill Minnie’s last wish was just a lie.
Embezzling public funds was true, but the donation was false.
Not only that, she always knew Minnie was donating to the orphanage. She had been secretly keeping the orphanage receipts and trying to use them as an excuse for embezzling funds. She really took him for a fool!
Rose Taylor froze.
It was the first time Lincoln Green yelled at her in years, and his words were so harsh. Rose Taylor couldn’t accept it, standing there in a daze, looking at Lincoln Green.
Lincoln Green saw Rose Taylor’s reaction, his heart softened a little, but his tone remained stern. “Since you embezzled the money, you should return it yourself.”
“Honey…” Rose Taylor wanted to plead with Lincoln Green, but he already closed his eyes.
Rose Taylor finally reacted, glaring at the man on the bed. She didn’t expect him to be so heartless now, truly not planning to help her?
That was 20 million; where would she get it in such a short time?
Taking a deep breath, Rose Taylor tried to keep her tone gentle. “Honey, you stay here. I’ll go home to check on Ruby and think of another way.”
After speaking, Rose looked hopefully at Lincoln Green, who kept his eyes closed, hoping he would say something.
But he said nothing.
Lincoln Green had nothing to offer. Rose Taylor felt furious and left the ward.
This man was ruined, but she couldn’t be, and her daughter couldn’t be.
What do you think?
