Reborn as Mr.CEO's Fat Wife-Chapter 357 - : I Like to Control Public Opinion in my Hands

Chapter 357: Chapter 357: I Like to Control Public Opinion in my Hands

“Mom!”

Ruby Green exclaimed in surprise; she didn’t expect her mom to agree to Clark Stone.

Rose Taylor held her daughter’s hand, “Ruby, be good. You and Clark are already engaged. Getting married is just a matter of time. It doesn’t matter if it’s sooner or later.”

“Mom, I…” Ruby Green wanted to say it did matter. Why could that fat bitch marry Master Brandon while she had to marry someone she once looked down upon?

Especially now that Clark Stone was notorious!

“Be good.” Ruby Green was unwilling, but Rose Taylor applied a bit more pressure on her hand.

Ruby Green gritted her teeth and fell silent, but inside, she was filled with rage!

Clark Stone watched the interaction between the mother and daughter, a look of triumphant satisfaction on his face.

As expected, Ruby Green was pacified. Rose Taylor turned to Clark Stone, “Clark meant well. Since that’s the case, let’s settle it.”

“Thank you, mother-in-law, for making it happen. As for the wedding…”

“Now that Ruby’s leg is in this condition, the wedding arrangements will be more troublesome for you.” Rose Taylor’s smile was forced.

“No problem, but since we’re having a wedding, we also need to choose a good day to get the marriage certificate. Tomorrow is a great day, and the financial office happens to be open.” Clark Stone’s words were shameless. He had just signed the contract and was already threatening them.

Ruby Green was furious but powerless. If Clark Stone really delayed the money, they would be taken to court.

“Since that’s the case, let’s do it tomorrow.” Rose Taylor grudgingly agreed.

“Alright, I’ll come to pick up Ruby tomorrow.” After speaking, Clark Stone stood up with a victorious smile and a composed demeanor.

“Heh, someone see the guest out.”

Bang!

After Clark Stone left, Ruby Green threw away the cup he had used. It smashed on the marble floor with a bang. She looked at her mother with red eyes, “Mom, why? Why did you agree to him?”

“Ruby, listen to me. This is just a temporary measure. Didn’t you hear what he said? If we don’t get the marriage certificate, their financial office can keep stalling. But they can afford to stall, can we?” Rose Taylor was frustrated too but she knew that Ruby marrying Clark Stone at this time would be more beneficial than harmful.

Lincoln Green wasn’t dead yet, but they had completely fallen out. It wouldn’t be easy to get rid of him in the future. Without Lincoln Pharmaceuticals as their cash cow, how would they live in the future?

Moreover, with Ruby’s leg in its current condition, and her reputation ruined by the last hotel incident, it was impossible for someone with better conditions to marry her. The Stone family had become their best choice.

Otherwise, she wouldn’t have been in such a hurry for the money without specifying a time for it to arrive.

She wanted this outcome with Clark Stone.

It meant binding the Stone family to them.

“But he disgusts me. You don’t know that he went to a bar last night to find a woman. That woman used his phone to send me their photos, just to disgust me.” Thinking of those photos, and recalling that she had slept with Clark Stone, Ruby Green felt like she had swallowed a fly.

“Mom knows, mom knows everything. But we are in a bad situation now. Marrying into the Stone family makes us a community of interests, which guarantees some security in the future.” Rose Taylor gently soothed her daughter’s emotions.

“But I really don’t like him…”

“Did I like Lincoln Green? Yet I was with him for over ten years. You handled the Stone family well before. I believe that if you put your heart into it, Clark Stone will treat you as he did before.” Rose Taylor coaxed.

Ruby Green gradually calmed down, thinking of Lincoln Green, “What about that old guy?”

“He’s in the hospital.” Mentioning Lincoln Green, Rose Taylor’s expression darkened.

Ruby Green caught on, “Mom, you mean… he’s fine? Why!”

“It’s all that fat nurse’s fault. She spoiled my plan.” Rose Taylor was annoyed. If she had known that she couldn’t kill him, she wouldn’t have acted today. Now, Lincoln Green was wary of her, making it harder for her to make a move in the future.

She also worried that this incident would ease the tension between Lincoln Green and that fat bitch, and they would team up against them.

“Mom, what are we going to do now?” Ruby Green was uneasy upon hearing that Lincoln Green was fine.

“Wait for the money to arrive tomorrow. I’ve already arranged for someone to handle our documents for moving abroad. If worse comes to worst, we’ll leave Gills City and live abroad.” Rose Taylor had a plan.

But Ruby Green kept shaking her head, “Mom, I don’t want to live abroad. I want to stay.”

She didn’t want to leave Gills City like a defeated dog.

Didn’t Abigail, that fat bitch, like to compete with her? This time, she wanted to see if that bitch had the guts to compete with her.

“Alright, we won’t rush this. Has Gordon returned?” Lowering her voice, Rose Taylor asked.

“Yes.” Ruby Green smiled strangely.

…

Piers’ Mansion.

The contract between Rose Taylor and the Stone family was finalized, and Brandon Piers got the news.

But hearing Clark Stone’s additional conditions made Abigail pause, “Is Ruby Green’s leg no longer lame? With Clark Stone’s opportunistic nature, if he’s still willing to marry, it must be true love.”

After she said that, Brandon Piers shot her a cold glance, “Naive.”

“Heh. Then tell me. Is it because of you?” Abigail teased.

“It’s really because of me.” Brandon Piers shrugged.

“Logically, Clark Stone should know how terrible the relationship between me and those two women is. The Stone family has always been profit-driven; why force Ruby Green to marry him now? Even if he wants to use your brother-in-law’s name, isn’t he afraid you’ll get mad and destroy the Stone family?” Abigail couldn’t believe the Stone family wouldn’t know her relationship with the Taylor family.

“Because of this.” Brandon Piers tossed a tablet to Abigail.

Abigail picked it up and saw the headline on the news, “Piers invests 50 million to help Lincoln Pharmaceuticals recover, hires professional manager Morgan to please his father-in-law.”

“Master Brandon plans to hold a grand wedding for Miss Abigail Green, invites the whole Green family for their opinions.”

“Father Green is critically ill, Master Brandon stays by his side all night, inviting Dean Foster for surgery. Deep bond between father-in-law and son-in-law!”

“Master Brandon values the Green family…”

Abigail was stunned as she read the news. “When was this press release sent? Why didn’t I know?”

“Oh, the day you kicked them out of the hospital.”

“What?” Abigail thought she misheard.

“This is called taking the initiative. I can’t let them say the Green family heiress is cold-hearted, evicting her parents from the hospital, or abusing power and seizing Lincoln Pharmaceuticals, can I?” Brandon Piers questioned.

Abigail was slightly stunned. Could they really do this? Just looking at the news, it seemed like the two families were harmonious and deeply connected.

“I like to control the narrative.”

“Tsk tsk, impressive!” Abigail saluted Brandon Piers.

She now understood why Clark Stone was in such a hurry to marry Ruby Green. He thought that marrying Ruby would allow him to continue enjoying Piers’ benefits, while Rose Taylor, being shrewd, would never reveal their true relationship to the Stone family.

More drama was just around the corner!
