Chapter 207: Chapter 207: Husband, it’s all our fault!
“Ruby, be good. It won’t happen.” Rose Taylor held the agitated Ruby Green.
Ruby Green struggled for a while before stopping, but her eyes still showed a crazy hatred. “Mom, it’s all that fat Abigail’s fault. It’s all her fault!”
If it weren’t for that fat woman, today’s engagement would have gone smoothly. Then she wouldn’t have been reduced to a rat everyone shouts to beat. She would have been a goddess, a goddess no one could compare to.
She would have been the wife of the second young master of the Piers family, the future mother of the heir to the Piers Corporation.
She would have been the richest woman in the whole C Nation.
Instead of being crippled like she was now.
“Yes, it’s all that fat woman’s fault. Mom will definitely deal with her for you!” Rose Taylor said angrily to comfort her daughter, her heart filled with resentment toward Abigail too.
If it weren’t for that fat woman today, their lives would have been completely different, but now they had nothing.
“I want her dead. I want her to die a horrible death!” Because of the hatred, Ruby Green’s face was even more twisted and ferocious than it had been at the engagement scene.
Rose Taylor patted her daughter’s back. “Hmm, we’ll make her die.”
“Die a horrible death!”
“Hmm, die a horrible death.” Rose Taylor kept comforting Ruby Green.
Lincoln Green came in to see the mother and daughter hugging, his face filled with guilt. “Rose, Ruby…”
Rose Taylor hurriedly wiped her cheeks, pinching the soft flesh on Ruby Green’s arm, then rubbed her eyes and spoke in a suppressed voice. “Husband…”
Ruby Green hated Lincoln Green in her heart, but her emotions had been somewhat soothed by Rose Taylor, so she didn’t lose control again, but she didn’t speak either. However, her mood wasn’t good, and her eyes were red. She kept her head down, hiding the vicious gleam in her eyes, giving off a pitiful impression.
“How is Ruby?” Lincoln Green asked, feeling guilty. After all, he had seen them lose control at the engagement scene without stopping them or protecting them. He had even enjoyed the Piers family banquet under other guests’ hospitality. Now seeing Rose Taylor crying and Ruby Green lowering her head in grievance, his voice unconsciously softened.
Hearing this, Rose Taylor couldn’t hold back her tears. “The doctor said… the doctor said…”
“What did the doctor say?” Lincoln Green hurriedly stepped forward to hold Rose Taylor’s hand.
“Ruby… Ruby’s leg might not recover.” Just as she finished speaking, Rose Taylor fell into a fit of genuine sobs, truly heartbroken.
She had raised such a daughter. She thought today would bring a leap into a wealthy family. But who knew Abigail Green, that fat woman, would intervene halfway, not only causing them to lose face but also leaving Ruby Green with a crippled leg.
Thinking of her daughter becoming a cripple in the future, not only Ruby but how could she, as a mother, not resent?
She also felt disappointment and anger toward the man before her. But with the Piers family’s marriage safeguards lost and the Stone family’s union wrecked, the Stone family would certainly not let this matter rest, especially since they had taken so much of the Stone family’s money…
Rose Taylor suppressed her disgust for Lincoln Green, leaning her entire body into his embrace. “Husband, what should I do? What should my Ruby do…”
Lincoln Green, though feeling humiliated by the mother and daughter’s actions today, also felt wronged by the Piers family and Abigail’s involvement.
He was puzzled about why the child claimed to be Ruby’s turned out to be Abigail’s. But meeting Rose Taylor’s fragile, helpless yet beautiful face, he softened for a moment. “Don’t worry, Rose. I will certainly find a way to heal Ruby’s leg.”
Rose Taylor knew Lincoln Green too well and became even more understanding and gentle. “Husband, it’s all our fault…”
“It’s my fault.”
Ruby Green kept her head down, listening to Lincoln Green’s words, her mouth cracking a cold smile. Indeed, it was all his fault. So let your daughter make up for it!
