Chapter 46

“Spent it.”

“Spent it?” Lincoln Green didn’t understand.

“Yeah, literally.” Abigail Green estimated that the baby should be waking up soon. She didn’t have time to bicker with the person in front of her, so she lazily responded.

Since Father Green thought Abigail Green had changed because of money, it just meant she didn’t have to worry about being exposed.

Lincoln Green knew his daughter’s character. Even if Aunt Claudia had driven a wedge between them, as long as he stood firm, she would inevitably give in. He had already prepared to take the card and fill in the gap for Rose Taylor, but things turned out completely contrary to his expectations.

“You…” Lincoln Green was choked up. Seeing Abigail’s perfunctory attitude, he became very angry.

“If Father has nothing else, I need to go upstairs to take care of the baby. After all, you know I took a considerable monthly salary from the Piers. I must do my job.” Abigail said honestly, ignoring Lincoln Green’s flushed face.

Lincoln Green clenched his fist. “Stop. You say you spent three million just like that? How did you spend it?”

“Since when did Father even control how his daughter spends her money? Is the Green family falling apart?” Abigail asked, looking at Lincoln Green with a worried face.

“Abigail Green!”

“Instead of wanting this money from me, why don’t you think about how to ensure Ruby marries into the Piers peacefully? That way, it’ll be more practical than bothering your youngest daughter for the hard-earned money she makes as a family helper for the Piers.” At this, Abigail suddenly fixed her gaze on Lincoln Green. “This is the Piers. Are you really not worried that our conversation will spread and become a laughingstock?”

Indeed, the president of Lincoln Pharmaceuticals, personally coming to ask for the hard-earned money his daughter made.

It would be a laughingstock anywhere.

Especially since the Green family still planned to marry into the Piers.

After hearing Abigail Green’s words, Lincoln Green’s expression turned even more embarrassed. He glanced around subconsciously but couldn’t be sure that no one had heard their conversation. He looked at Abigail in a somewhat disheveled manner. “You… I really have a good daughter.”

“Good you know that. Otherwise, one would think Ruby is your real daughter.” Having said this, Abigail headed straight to the stairs, not wasting any more words with Lincoln Green, the scummy father.

She finally understood why the original Abigail became a background figure in the Green family, trampled by an outside mother and daughter pair without dignity until her death.

As the saying goes, a child with a stepmother is as good as having a stepfather.

The ancient did not deceive us.

Lincoln Green watched Abigail’s back, stunned in place for a while. Was his daughter accusing him just now?

His expression changed slightly. Over the years, he indeed neglected this biological daughter a bit, but after all, he was her father and elder. How could this girl talk to him like that?

If it wasn’t because of her immaturity, how could he have overlooked her?

Any momentary guilt was replaced by the anger of this failed mission. It was only when the Piers’ housekeeper sent him off that Lincoln Green woke up a bit.

He couldn’t take Abigail’s money.

Otherwise, once the Piers found out, he would definitely become a laughingstock.

Especially since the Piers were already displeased with Ruby’s engagement. Even Brandon, the master of the house, didn’t show up in person. Thinking about how Abigail said the Green family had lost face when they used the child to secure Ruby’s engagement, his face became even more unsightly.

At this moment, Rose Taylor’s call came in. “Honey, what did Abigail say?”

“This money was given by the Piers after all. The Green family can’t let the Piers see us as a joke. As for the three million, find a way yourself,” Lincoln Green said angrily.

Rose Taylor’s expression changed slightly after hearing this. “Honey, did you know? Abigail bought a house for Aunt Claudia.”

“What?”

“Absolutely.”

Lincoln Green clenched his fists. Damn you, Aunt Claudia.
