Chapter 334: Chapter 334: Mom and Dad are Going to Fight Monsters
Rose Taylor looked at her daughter’s collapsed state. She knew she couldn’t do it but couldn’t refuse her daughter either.
Gritting her teeth, Rose Taylor held Ruby Green in her arms. “Mom will definitely find a way for you. It will definitely work.”
“Mom…”
The mother and daughter cried uncontrollably in the hospital room.
It wasn’t until nine in the morning that Lincoln Green arrived at the hospital.
Lately, his body had been easily fatigued, and his memory had somewhat worsened. He had been sleeping deeply and only woke up in the morning to find out Ruby Green had been taken by an ambulance at midnight. He rushed over in a panic.
Unfortunately, just as Lincoln Green arrived, the hospital ordered Ruby Green to be discharged.
Seeing the haggard mother and daughter, Lincoln Green’s anger flared. “Is this hospital even human? How can you discharge a patient in this condition?”
“Well… we’re also in a difficult position. Maybe you could try another hospital?” The hospital administrator said awkwardly.
Hearing this, Lincoln Green understood what was going on and immediately dialed Abigail Green.
Abigail had finished breakfast and was practicing Tai Chi with the old man.
Doing Tai Chi in the Piers’ Mansion in the morning was a genuine delight for Abigail.
Recently, Brandon Piers had also joined them, making the mornings particularly lively.

Especially when Teddy was awake.
For instance, at this moment.
While Abigail was correcting the old man’s posture, little Teddy started fussing and didn’t want to stay in Kelly’s arms, reaching out for Abigail.
With no choice, Abigail hurried back and held the little one in her arms. But before she could rock him for a while, Brandon Piers called out, “Fatty, come over and see if I’m doing this move correctly.”
Abigail, who was about to sing a newly learned children’s song to the little one, “…”
But before Abigail could refuse, Kelly had already come over. “Teddy, let the nanny hold you, the nanny smells as nice as mommy.”
Without waiting for Abigail to react, Kelly took Teddy back into her arms.
Relieved, Abigail stood in front of Brandon Piers, looking at the man who could even make Tai Chi look like a scene from a drama. “Which move of yours is incorrect?”
After a round of attentive teaching, Abigail finally took a breath.
But just at that moment, her phone suddenly rang.
Wiping the hot sweat from her forehead, Abigail saw the number and frowned, immediately hanging up.
But the person on the other end was persistent. After being hung up once, they called again. This repeated until just as Abigail was about to block the number, the old man turned and asked, “Abigail, is something wrong?”
“No.”
Abigail responded without turning back but accidentally pressed the answer button, and soon she heard the roar from the other end, “Abigail Green, you’re really out of line!”
Startled by the loud voice, Abigail quickly moved the phone away.
On the other end, Lincoln Green, thinking Abigail was pretending, said, “Don’t think I don’t know you’re listening. Get yourself to the central hospital immediately, arrange a ward for your sister, and apologize to her. Do you hear me?”
Abigail sneered lightly. She was about to speak when Brandon Piers, who had unknowingly walked over, took the phone from her hand. “Boss Green, such arrogance.”
His clear voice carried a hint of coolness, and a faint smile played on his face. The once lively courtyard suddenly fell silent.
Everyone looked at Brandon Piers, then quietly stepped back and resumed their tasks.
In this courtyard, no one feared anyone except when the second young master suddenly smiled at them.
Lincoln Green, still furious, prepared to continue scolding but was struck dumb as soon as he heard, “Second young master… Why is it you?”
“If it wasn’t me, would you continue to bully Abigail?” Brandon’s smile grew wider.
Lincoln Green shivered. “No… no…”
“Oh, then what is it?”
“I…”
Bang!
A loud noise suddenly came from the other end of the phone.
Brandon listened to the sound of something heavy hitting the ground from the other end, frowning. Did he faint out of fear?
Raising his head in confusion, he looked at Abigail. He hadn’t expected Lincoln Green to be this weak.
Abigail frowned, recalling the last time she saw Lincoln Green. She explained, “It probably wasn’t you who scared him. His health had already been deteriorating.”
Sure enough, as soon as Abigail said this, Rose Taylor’s voice came through the phone, “Honey, honey, what’s wrong? Someone, help!”
Then there was a rustling sound before the phone went silent.
Brandon looked at Abigail. “Should we go?”
“Hmm?” Abigail wondered what their mother and daughter were up to now. But this call from Lincoln Green must be about Ruby. If she guessed right, Ruby’s leg wasn’t salvageable.
At the engagement party last time, she had noticed something off about Ruby’s leg healing too quickly, which wasn’t normal. She’d suspected Ruby had injected a prohibited drug. But back then, it was still salvageable. Yesterday at the charity auction, seeing Ruby stand nonchalantly, Abigail guessed she had taken the drug again.
Deliberately using her handbag, she had poked Ruby’s leg, and although the upper part reacted violently, the lower part was insensitive. Hence, that left leg was done for.
Lincoln Green’s early morning call confirmed her suspicion.
Lincoln fainting after calling her would inevitably cause her to take the blame. The consequences were predictable.
But just then, the old man came over. “Abigail, what happened to Dad?”
Abigail and Brandon exchanged glances, unsure how to respond.
The old man glanced at his grandson disapprovingly. “Was he angered or frightened? Either way, our family and the Greens are in-laws. Regardless of how they treat Abigail, we must maintain our dignity so that no one speaks ill behind our backs.”
“I understand, Grandpa.” Brandon knew his grandfather was right. The more he wanted to protect Abigail, the less he could allow outsiders to find faults. They had to visit the hospital.
After replying to his grandfather, Brandon looked at Abigail. “If you don’t want to, stay home and play with Teddy.”
The old man, “…” Was this still his cold-hearted grandson?
“I’ll go with you.” This was her matter to deal with. How could she let Brandon handle it alone?
Although she knew he had plenty of methods, dragging such an immortal-like person into their family’s mundane quarrels already made her feel guilty.
Letting him deal with it alone was something she couldn’t allow.
“Alright.” Seeing her protectiveness, Brandon was delighted and didn’t pretend further.
The old man nodded in satisfaction, turning to hold Teddy. “Come, let great-grandpa hold you. Mom and Dad need to go defeat the monsters for Teddy!”
Abigail & Brandon, “…”
Why did it feel like their son might be spoiled by the old man?
