Reborn as Mr.CEO's Fat Wife Chapter 368

Chapter 368: Chapter 368: Which Woman Doesn't Suffer Greatly Giving Birth

Lincoln Green's action took Abigail by surprise.

Since her reincarnation, Abigail had come to understand Lincoln Green's character well enough. Arrogant yet easily swayed, though she had said a lot last time, she thought he had been brainwashed by Rose once again.

To her surprise, after holding back for days, he came out with such a big move.

This time, Lincoln Green not only filed for divorce but also accused Rose Taylor of attempted murder for financial gain.

This was far more than just a simple divorce.

It seemed like he had truly come to his senses.

Abigail sighed softly. Unfortunately, it was too late.

“Why is a young lady like you sighing?” Just as Abigail sighed, Aunt Claudia walked over with a plate of fresh fruit, smiling as she asked.

Abigail thought of the dream she had last time, or more precisely, the memory of Lin Xiaqing she had seen in a half-dream state. She reached out and picked a strawberry. “Aunt Claudia, did my mom die because of me?”

Aunt Claudia's hand paused as she was placing the fruit down. “Who told you such nonsense? Although Miss was weakened by childbirth, it wasn't your fault. Which woman doesn't suffer greatly from childbirth? She simply had bad luck.”

“Oh.” Abigail responded softly but kept her gaze fixed on Aunt Claudia.

Aunt Claudia felt uncomfortable under the gaze. “Abigail, why don't you rest for a bit? I'll watch Teddy.”

“I know everything,” Abigail exhaled heavily and spoke gently.

Thud!

Aunt Claudia froze, following with a reproachful tone. “Know what? Abigail, you were so young then; what could you know? Besides, Miss was your mother. It was her instinct to protect you. She never blamed you, so you shouldn't think too much or listen to other people's nonsense.”

After saying that, she found it odd. “How did you find out, Abigail? It can't be that Lincoln Green told you, right? He may be confused, but he wouldn't say such things to you. I'll go talk to him!”

The more Aunt Claudia thought about it, the angrier she became. Over the years, that bastard hadn't treated Abigail well. But to blame her now?

How despicable!

“It wasn't him.” Seeing Aunt Claudia so agitated, Abigail felt warmed.

At least there was someone in this world who truly loved Lin Xiaqing.

“It wasn't him? How is that possible? After that incident, Miss replaced all the household staff to avoid any leaks. Only a few close family members knew about it, so it must have been Lincoln Green.” Aunt Claudia muttered with confusion and furrowed her brows. “Could it be that he even told that woman, Rose Taylor?”

Abigail was stunned. Rose Taylor didn't know the cause of Minnie Swift's death?

“What's going on?” Abigail felt a sudden sense of unease.

“Well… Rose Taylor didn't join Lincoln Pharmaceuticals until a year after your mother's death. She started in housekeeping because she was a single mother, so the company employees took care of her. Somehow, she helped your father and then climbed to the secretary department. The rest, you know.”

After hearing Aunt Claudia, Abigail could not help but sigh. A single mother with a daughter managed to climb from a janitor to the secretary department in Gills City and eventually became Lincoln Green's second wife and the company's financial controller.

What kind of woman could achieve this?

No, there were many capable women in this world, but Rose Taylor wasn't one of them.

It must not be a coincidence.

Rose Taylor's greatest advantage wasn't her ability but her skill in understanding men.

Especially a man like Lincoln Green, a dominant, wealthy widower.

But these were not Abigail's main concerns. What she cared about was Aunt Claudia's first comment, “Entered the company a year later. Did she also learn about my mother's issue around that time?”

“After your mother's incident, fearing it would affect the company, nothing was publicized. Only a few family members knew. So, it must have been Lincoln Green who told her.” Aunt Claudia spoke angrily of Lincoln.

Abigail frowned, recalling Rose Taylor's reaction when she mentioned Minnie Swift's death. She seemed shocked that Rose had brought it up.

“Young Madam, here are the documents you requested.” Just then, Pullan handed over a stack of papers.

Abigail curiously took them. What documents did she ask for?

But as soon as she opened them, she understood.

That day, she grew very curious about the environment in which Rose Taylor grew up, turning her into the cunning woman she was now.

She had mentioned it casually, but Brandon Piers had taken it to heart.

Abigail looked through Rose Taylor's detailed background, almost tracing back eighteen generations.

“Hah.” Looking at the information, Abigail chuckled. This obsessive-compulsive nature. But the more she read, the more her smile faded.

Rose Taylor's original family was ordinary, even relatively well-off. Although they lived in a small city, both parents were teachers, making for a middle-class upbringing. Nothing unusual.

During her youth, Rose Taylor was not only prettier than her peers but also excelled academically, embodying good character and academic performance.

The turning point was when the outstanding young Rose Taylor was found to be pregnant, with the father being a local delinquent.

After that, the beloved girl was almost entirely abandoned by her family. Her parents were so ashamed that they dragged her to terminate the pregnancy. Afraid of gossip, they both resigned from their jobs, while Rose dropped out and moved to the city to work.

She married before the age of twenty and gave birth to Ruby Green. But her husband, despite his good looks, had nothing else. He was a drunkard and a gambler. When he won, he would splurge on his family, but when he lost, he would take his anger out on them. His emotions were extremely unstable, and he died in an accident when Ruby was five.

Brandon's documentation was so detailed that Abigail could almost imagine a large portion of Rose Taylor's tumultuous life. But her eyes lingered on the young, handsome face in the photo.

Rose Taylor's first love, the delinquent who changed her life trajectory.

According to the information, this delinquent disappeared soon after Rose left, later receiving a six-year sentence for assault. Abigail wasn't concerned about his sentence length.

Rather, she noticed Rose Taylor hastily married in the second month after Felix Harrison went to jail. Not long after his release, Rose's then-husband drowned. Too coincidental!

Abigail stared at the young man's photo, feeling a familiar sense. Turning the page, she found him to be no less of a troublemaker. Six years after his release, Felix Harrison was sentenced again for a hit-and-run.

The subsequent information was simpler, detailing how Rose Taylor approached Lincoln Green, eventually securing her place from a small-town delinquent to a wealthy mistress in Southern Town.

Ruby Green became a rich lady of the Green family.

To narrate Rose Taylor's life would be quite legendary. If Ruby's mother had succeeded through her, how different their lives would be?

Abigail shook her head. One shouldn't be too greedy. She closed the documents and pointed at Felix Harrison. “Pullan, can you help me find out where this person is now?”

“Yes, Young Madam.”
