Reborn as Mr.CEO s Fat Wife

Chapter 271: Chapter 271: Lincoln Green’s Secret
 

Ruby Green was interrupted, making it even harder to get close to Adam Piers again.

However, she couldn’t care less about this right now; her mind was filled with Adam Piers’ words. “Your father is a shareholder of Piers,” he had said. A shareholder of Piers?

Was Lincoln Green a shareholder of Piers? Why didn’t she or her mother know about this?

Moreover, if Lincoln Green was a shareholder of Piers, how could he have been troubled once due to Lincoln Pharmaceuticals’ lack of funds?

But as a member of the esteemed Piers’ second branch, how could Adam Piers lie to her!

So, was this true?

What did being a Piers shareholder mean? Even a mere two percent of the shares would provide enough annual dividends for her to squander for half a lifetime. And Lincoln Green had never mentioned such a significant matter to her mother?

Did this mean he had never really accepted her and her mother?

Thinking this, Ruby Green was very displeased. She had thought that old man treated her and her mother well, but it turned out that all previous gestures were just small favors. The real wealth he had kept hidden.

But what did an old man in his fifties want with so much wealth? Did he intend to leave it all to Abigail Green, that fat girl?

Dream on!

“Ruby, right? Come, have a drink with us.” Ruby Green was so engrossed in the thought of Lincoln Green owning Piers’ shares that she didn’t react to the person beside her, suddenly called out, and looked blankly at the person in front of her.

The person introduced himself, “I’m Campbell Rusk, the vice president of Jerry Entertainment. Nice to meet you, Miss Green. You don’t mind if I call you Ruby, do you?”

“No… no problem,” Ruby Green replied, surprised. Jerry Entertainment had risen in recent years. Though it wasn’t as grand as the major film companies, it had produced quite a few stars, backed by a large video platform over the past few years. She had once auditioned for a role there, but unfortunately, she didn’t get it.

She hadn’t expected their vice president to approach her today.

Ruby Green was thrilled inside, but she remained composed and responded appropriately. She then noticed that the expressions of the people around her had changed. No longer with disdain and ridicule, a quick thought told Ruby the reason.

The status of a Piers shareholder was too useful.

Thinking of this, Ruby Green secretly vowed to get that old man’s shares.

Then, whose approval would she need to seek?

Ruby Green’s face, already a solid seven-plus in attractiveness, looked even more ambitious under the colorful lights of the private room. Faint scars, covered with makeup, were still visible.

Not far away, Adam Piers glanced at Ruby Green’s ambition-filled face, a wicked smile curling his lips. He picked up the dice, saying, “Come on, let’s continue.”

The private room became a scene of debauchery.

When Ruby Green returned to the Green family home, it was already three in the morning. Her legs, which had slightly improved after acupuncture, hurt so much that she broke into a light sweat but couldn’t contain her excitement.

Initially, she had just wanted to try her luck. She hadn’t expected Adam Piers to be so polite. He even exchanged numbers before she left.

But that wasn’t the main point. The main point was that she had discovered Lincoln Green’s secret.

Too excited to sleep, she tossed and turned until dawn, getting up early to call her mother into her room while Lincoln Green was freshening up.

“Mom, did you know Lincoln Green has shares in Piers?” Ruby Green’s voice trembled as she asked.

She remembered how the people in the private room who had ridiculed her had changed their attitude immediately after Adam Piers revealed Lincoln Green was a Piers shareholder. She, who hadn’t even been able to reach Jerry Entertainment’s head of talent before, had received the vice president’s business card and had been personally sent home.

Ruby Green couldn’t imagine what those people who had mocked her would do if she got hold of those shares.

But when she asked, Rose Taylor was confused. “What shares? How could he possibly have shares in Piers?”

Ruby Green gritted her teeth. That old man Lincoln Green had indeed been hiding things from them!
