Britain.
George was in the study, keeping his mom Janita company while she read. Due to Janita’s poor health, they’d been living in Britain.
Janita had delicate skin and prominent facial features.
“George, have you heard about what happened to Lucian?” Janita asked.
George answered, “I heard, Penelope seems to be still out cold, and her exact injuries are unknown.”
Janita asked, “Last time you were home, did you meet this woman?”
George answered, “I did, but I don’t have a strong impression of her. I’m even kind of curious why Lucian would marry her?”

Janita was flipping through the book while speaking, “The Flanagan family only has about 20 million dollars in yearly turnover. It’s indeed pretty interesting that they’re marrying into the Lindberg family. But Penelope just lost her baby and went into a coma trying to save Miranda, which could work in our favor. You know, if this child had been born, it would have been a major bargaining chip for Lucian. Now that the child is gone, we have an opportunity.”
George asked, “Mom, do I need to head back home now?”
Janita shook her head, “Not necessary. This incident is very odd, Miranda holds a charity gala every year and it always goes off without a hitch, except this time. I heard she was almost crushed by a falling chandelier, but Penelope pushed her out of the way. There’s no way that chandelier just happened to fall, someone definitely tampered with it. If we go back now, suspicion might fall on us.”
George asked, “Mom, who do you think did it?”
Even though the Lindberg family had a lot of enemies, no one would dare to be so audacious. Penelope was 9 months pregnant and her accident was undoubtedly a major blow to the Lindberg family.
Janita closed her book and said, “Next month, it’s Cora’s birthday and I will go back home with you, it’s been a while since I’ve seen Cora. This incident has nothing to do with us, but it gives us an opportunity. Since the opportunity has knocked on our door, we must seize it. Contact Mr. Bryce now, he will know what to do. I believe Lindberg Corporation might be experiencing some turbulence right
now.”
George said, “Got it.”
The news of Penelope miscarrying and falling into a coma to save Miranda was widely reported by major media within three days. This incident became the talk of the town in Northfield.

The Lindberg family was under tremendous pressure. Despite their wealth, the public outcry was so great, and they had no choice but to take action. Even with their vast wealth and power, the Lindberg family couldn’t suppress the pressure from public opinion.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmLindberg Corporation held a shareholder meeting. At the meeting, some board members suggested Lucian take a break. Lucian responded with a smile, “Mr. Bryce, I think it’s you guys who need a break. If I remember correctly, last month your granddaughter mentioned you were feeling unwell due to high blood pressure. I feel bad to bother you guys. That was thoughtless of me.”
Bryce chuckled, “Lucian, Lindberg Corporation’s stock started to drop. We’re just thinking about the company’s interests. This company was founded by us and your grandfather, so naturally, we hope the company will be doing well.”
A sarcastic smile flashed in Lucian’s eyes, “Mr. Bryce, Mr. Tate, in that case, there’s something I’d like to tell you. A few days ago, Bobby used 3 million of the company’s funds for personal use and hasn’t paid it back yet. I’d like to ask, Mr. Tate, were you aware of this?”
Mr. Tate’s face turned pale instantly. “This…”
Lucian’s gaze fell on Bryce, “Mr. Bryce, what do you think? Bobby misappropriated the company’s funds, should I proceed legally?”
Bryce’s face turned serious in an instant, and Mr. Tate quickly said, “Mr. Bryce, Bobby is like your own grandson.” He then turned towards Lucian, “Lucian, you’ve known Bobby since you were a kid, why would you do this?”
Lucian chuckled, “Yeah, Mr. Tate, why indeed.”

During these days when public opinion was escalating, Lucian knew that these people would come to find him, especially Bryce, given his close relationship with George.
