Reborn as Mr.CEO's Fat Wife-Chapter 293 - : The Second Young Master is too much!

Chapter 293: Chapter 293: The Second Young Master is too much!

Brandon Piers left the nursery and immediately sensed the strange atmosphere in the old mansion.

There was an eerie silence, even the creak of Teddy’s cradle near the balcony stood out clearly.

He glanced at the time. It was five ten in the afternoon, the busiest time for the old mansion.

Brandon’s handsome eyebrows slightly furrowed as he looked around. His thin lips parted, “Pullan.”

“Master Brandon, I’m here.” Pullan’s response was unexpectedly quick. No one knew where he came from, standing on the first floor and poking his head out to answer loudly.

And then Brandon noticed that after Pullan’s shout, the old mansion seemed like an old machine suddenly powered on again.

...

The servants began to busy themselves, the stillness he felt earlier now seemed like just an illusion.

Brandon’s frown deepened as he looked at Pullan, “Come to the study.”

Three minutes later.

Pullan trudged downstairs, biting his lip in dismay. Then everyone heard a familiar chant echoing through the elegant Piers’ Mansion.

One two, one two, one two…

Oh, that was the sound of Pullan running.

Brandon had his dinner in the study. He did not want to see his grandfather.

Out of sight, out of mind.

At dinner, Abigail found that everyone in the mansion treated her with even more respect, leaving her baffled.

But after staying in this mansion for so long, she got used to occasional mass hysteria among staff due to the old man’s erratic nature and chose to ignore it.

She had no idea that she simply changed Brandon’s dressing, causing everyone in the mansion to start looking forward to the little miss’s arrival, just like the old man.

That evening, Abigail heard the news from Kelly, and her face instantly fell.

What did she do wrong? What did she do wrong…

Compared to the relaxed atmosphere at the Piers, the Green family was not as carefree.

Rose Taylor and Ruby Green turned the Green’s Mansion upside down while Lincoln Green was away.

They couldn’t find the Piers’ shares, but they did find several loan contracts between Lincoln Green and the bank. The repayment date in the contracts was imminent.

The mother and daughter stared at the loan amount of twenty million. They looked at each other.

After a while, Rose spoke, “Ruby, did you hear wrong?”

Ruby shook her head, “Impossible. If I heard wrong, what about the others? It’s impossible for everyone to hear wrong. Lincoln must have hidden it somewhere! Mom, do you know of any other places he might have hidden things?”

Rose shook her head, “I checked the company side too. Nothing.”

“Then where could it be?” Ruby muttered softly.

At that moment, a black and skinny figure sneaked in.

As soon as the two saw him, they immediately pulled their faces down. Especially Ruby, whose face turned particularly ugly, “Who let you in?”

“Madam, Miss, Boss Green went to the Piers’ Mansion.” Johnson Harrison awkwardly smiled at Ruby. Because he was dark-skinned, his two rows of teeth appeared particularly white.

Seeing him irritated Ruby, “If it weren’t for your leg, it wouldn’t be so hard to recover. Get out! Who let you in!”

“What did he go to the Piers’ Mansion for?” Rose wasn’t as resistant. After the last incident, because they didn’t press charges, Johnson was released after only half a month in custody. He couldn’t enter the main house temporarily, so Rose arranged for him to work in the servant’s quarters, at her disposal.

The black and skinny Johnson shook his head.

“Mom, why do you still use him? If it weren’t for him, my leg…” Ruby grumbled, glaring angrily at the skinny man.

“Sorry, Miss, I… I didn’t mean to.” Johnson looked down, apologizing guiltily.

Rose waved her hand, “You go back first. I will call you if anything needs to be done.”

Ruby fumed, rolling her eyes at the black and skinny man, remarking to her mother, “It’s so inconvenient without Uncle around!”

Hearing her daughter mention her brother, Rose’s face darkened, “It’s my fault for your uncle.”

“What’s there to feel guilty about? Mom, don’t be sentimental. Once we get the Piers’ shares, we can easily get Uncle out, right? Do you think that old man went to the Piers’ Mansion to give the shares to Abigail, that fat bitch?”

Rose shook her head, “The company needs money now. With Lincoln’s personality, he wouldn’t give anything to Abigail. The shares must have restrictions that prevent him from moving them now. Why don’t you get in touch with Adam Piers again and see if you can find anything out from him?”

“Okay.” Ruby agreed happily, liking her mother’s idea.

The sound of a car engine outside interrupted them. They hurried downstairs, while Rose rushed to the kitchen.

Lincoln Green entered and immediately saw his wife in an apron. His angry expression softened, “Wife, why are you cooking yourself? Didn’t I say let the kitchen staff do it?”

Rose smiled gently, “The maids’ cooking doesn’t suit your taste as well as mine.” She paused, “How did things go at the company today?”

“Don’t mention it.” Thinking about today made Lincoln furious.

He didn’t expect to fail in securing the dowry. He was even outrageously overcharged! He visited several banks today, only to be turned away.

Hearing this, Rose went up to massage Lincoln’s shoulders tenderly, “What happened? Why are you so angry? Our recent order volumes seem good.”

“It’s not just about the company.” Lincoln grumbled.

The mother and daughter exchanged a glance.

As expected, Lincoln began to gripe, “I went to the Piers. I wanted to discuss Abigail’s wedding details with Brandon. But he was unbelievably arrogant!”

“Master Brandon is always domineering and arrogant. Otherwise, how could he embarrass the Stones in front of so many Gills City socialites by suddenly changing the bride and humiliating our family?” Rose’s voice lowered, full of unspeakable grievances.

Lincoln patted Rose’s hand, “Indeed, Brandon acted excessively.”

“We are also at fault. By the way, since it was about Abigail’s marriage, what displeased Master Brandon?” Rose probed while Ruby, who had been boiling with anger since learning Lincoln went to the Piers to discuss Abigail’s marriage, couldn’t hide her disdain.

She was increasingly annoyed with her stepfather.

But Lincoln was oblivious and continued, “You have no idea how insolent the brat was. I talked about the dowry, and he demanded fifty-two percent of Lincoln Pharmaceuticals’ shares!”

Both Rose and Ruby were stunned. Why did Master Brandon want Lincoln Pharmaceuticals’ shares?

“Details?” Rose reacted swiftly.

“Oh, the brat wanted to buy control of the company for fifty million. He must be planning to take over our pharmaceutical company. Such ambition!” Lincoln said indignantly, deliberately omitting that Brandon wanted the shares for Abigail.

He already had a plan in mind. Given the company’s current situation, it was bound to face trouble sooner or later. It was better to secure the money now.

However, he couldn’t bear the thought of handing over the company he had managed for many years to that disobedient girl.

Neither Rose nor Ruby expected Lincoln Pharmaceuticals, despite its poor condition, to have fifty-two percent of its shares worth fifty million. And yet, judging by Lincoln’s attitude, fifty million was not enough. Clearly, it likely held the value of owning five percent of Piers’ shares.
