Chapter 184 A Shameless Family
“But what if it was Paige’s gift for Grandma…” Abbigail bit her lower lip. She had no idea why Paige would give Cassie such a valuable gift.
Abbigail cursed in her mind, the gemstone is too good for an old woman!
“Paige will never know if we don’t tell anybody. Besides, no one knows where she got it. I bet one of her sugar daddies. gave it to her. Anyway, you can have it, Abbigail. Hold it till your grandmother asks for it,” Lindsey suggested.
“Dad, I think ***is right. I can look after the gem for Grandma.” Abbigail took the gem and caressed it carefully. Abbigail was so into this flower-shaped sparkly gem very much.
“That ingrate should be thankful that we’re still willing to take good care of the gem for her after she wanted 9.6 million dollars in compensation!”
Lindsey rummaged around in Cassie’s drawer. She didn’t stop until she found nothing. The next ***, Lindsey noticed something under Cassie’s pillow.
It was a new phone.
however, This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.
Lindsey picked it up and checked. There was no logo on the phone, so Lindsey didn’t know which brand it was. Lindsey immediately glared at Tyrell.
“You brought it for Cassie?”
“It wasn’t me,” said Tyrell. He thought for a **and went on, “Was it from Paige?”
“Why would Paige be so generous to get Cassie a valuable jewel and a new phone all of a sudden? What’s she up to?” Lindsey sneered, “Does Paige want to butter up Cassie so that she could be in the will? Dream on!”
Tyrell felt the same way. It made Tyrell ***Paige even more. Tyrell thought, I’ve already paid her 9.6 million dollars. What else does she want from me? Paige’s too greedy!
To Lindsey’s surprise, she needed a passcode to unlock the phone. Lindsey believed it was Paige who set the passcode.
Later, Lindsey unlocked it with Cassie’s fingerprint. After some time on the phone, Lindsey found that the phone was user-friendly. She didn’t expect a phone not produced by a famous company to be of high quality.
Lindsey found that Paige was the only one Cassie called.
For the past few days, Cassie had been in contact with Paige when Cassie was sober, Lindsey kept swiping the screen. Lindsey was furious to realize that Cassie had called Paige a dozen times.
“Can you believe it? Cassie didn’t call us when she woke up. She called Paige! Not us!”
Lindsey showed the phone to Tyrell and added, “See? I was right. Paige wanted her cut of the wealth, so she did everything she could to get Cassie’s attention. And Paige made it! Cassie now is on Paige’s side!”
Tyrell put on a gloomy face when he learned that Cassie and Paige had stayed in contact for a long time.
“Remember that you paid Paige 16 thousand dollars to stay away from your mother? Now you understand why she rejected it, don’t you? Paige clearly wants more than that!”
Next, Lindsey put the phone in her purse.
“Lindsey, what are you doing?” Though Tyrell was mad at Paige, it bothered him that Lindsey took Cassie’s phone away without asking.
After all, Cassie was Tyrell’s mother.
“As long as Cassie has this phone, Paige will call your mother more often. They’re gonna get closer. What if Cassie leaves all her money to Paige? We’re gonna lose everything!” Lindsey wouldn’t let that happen.
Not so long ago, Lindsey had already taken away Cassie’s phone. However, Paige got Cassie a new one. Lindsey thought, what a scheming woman!
Suddenly, Lindsey found something green under Cassie’s pillow. She took it out and looked closely at it. For a long, time, Lindsey couldn’t take her eyes off it.
Lindsey exclaimed, “What an amazing bracelet!”
It was a bracelet made of valuable jade.
By its color and design, Lindsey was sure the bracelet was costly. Lindsey yelled in her mind, don’t tell me it was from Paige again!
Lindsey couldn’t believe that Paige had done so much to coax Cassie into leaving money to her.
“Tyrell, check this out. This bracelet is worth at least dozens of millions of dollars!” Lindsey twisted her face with greed. “Now I’m 100% sure that Paige approached Cassie with bad intentions. After all, she and Cassie aren’t related. What’s more, we kicked Paige out of the Tate family. How would she possibly not hold a grudge against us and still give Cassie so many valuable gifts?”
Lindsey complained secretly, it’s such a waste to let a dying woman wear this stunning bracelet.
Cassie can’t even get herself out of her hospital bed. She has no use for the bracelet!
Paige gave Cassie not only a precious gem and a new phone, but also a costly bracelet….
All Paige wants is Cassie’s equity, real estate, cars, and money!
“How dare she?” At this ***, Tyrell saw Paige as an evil woman. He thought, even though we did something unforgivable, Paige can’t take away the Tate family’s wealth from us as revenge!
Lindsey put the bracelet in her purse and said, “Look, I didn’t do it for my own sake. Actually, I’m not interested in this bracelet at all, but I don’t allow Paige to ***Cassie any longer. I take the bracelet away so that Cassie won’t think of Paige every time she sees it.”
Lindsey’s excuse sounded convincing to Tyrell.
“I don’t think that Paige will buy Cassie a new one!” Lindsey added.
If Paige did, Lindsey would take it away from Cassie again. Lindsey wouldn’t stop until Paige gave up giving Cassie gifts.
“Dad, ***, Grandma’s fingers are moving!”
Abbigail shouted. Tyrell and Lindsey immediately looked at Cassie.
After a while, Cassie slowly opened her eyes and coughed.
“Cassie, are you awake?” Lindsey instantly kept the head of the bed up and said, “Abbigail, where is the pillow you wanna give Grandma? Go get it.”
“Oh, alright.” Abbigail hurriedly put the newly bought pillow behind Cassie’s waist and asked in a sweet voice, “Grandma, do you feel better now?”
Cassie had heard people talking at her bedside, but she couldn’t hear them very well. Right at this ***, Cassie leaned weakly against the head of the bed. The pillow behind her waist made her extremely uncomfortable.
“It’s too hard for me. Take it away.” Given that Cassie was lying at a 45-degree angle on the bed, Cassie could hardly breathe because of the hard pillow behind Cassie’s waist.
“It’s the thought that counts, isn’t it, Abbigail?” Lindsey hurriedly said. “Abbigail also brought you a lot of things. Look over there. She put the flowers in a vase for you. Abbigail said you’ve got stuck in the ward for too long because you’re too weak. The flowers can make you feel better.”
Speechless, Cassie glanced at the flowers in the vase.
***lilies weren’t poisonous, but the scent could cause insomnia.
Nothing would happen if the ***lilies were put in an open space, but things were completely different when the flowers were placed in a stuffy room. Especially for a patient with heart disease like Cassie, the scent of the flowers could be dangerous.
Moreover, there were some pink tulips in the vase. It was well known that pink tulips contained alkaloid and glycoside compounds that were toxic. People who had exposure to pink tulips for one or two hours could develop symptoms of tulip poisoning, such as dizziness and nausea.
Furthermore, pink tulips would emit tiny particles, which could cause skin rashes, or worst, hair loss.
Cassie couldn’t help but think, are they gonna murder me?
