In a bizarre incident, a 102-year-old millionaire was rushed out of the hospital in Taiwan by his children when they learned of his secret marriage with his young caregiver.
According to The Sun, Wang, a former land scrivener, was leaving a hospital appointment in Zhongshan District, Taipei, Taiwan, in a wheelchair pushed by his new wife, Lai.
As the couple reached the exit gate, his three sons, three daughters-in-law and four grandchildren came, pushed Lai aside and seized control of the wheelchair, attempting to wheel Wang to safety. During this, Lai shouted for police help and chased the children down the street. She was reportedly injured during the altercation.
The whole incident that took place on February 3 was captured in a CCTV footage.
Police arrived on scene and Wang’s family told officers the elderly man was their father and father-in-law, and he was ultimately taken away with them, The Sun reported.
The incident took place weeks after Wang quietly registered his marriage to Lai on January 5.
The Sun quoted Wang’s children saying that they only found out about the wedding when they tried to visit him a few days later and were refused access.
The family claimed that Wang’s caregiver had isolated him from the outside world and prevented family contact. They also claimed that she took advantage of his deteriorating mental condition to secure her financial future.
The Sun quoted reports claiming that Wang had transferred seven plots of land and a £1.9million insurance policy to Lai and her children, amounting to around £4.7million. His total assets are estimated at between £16million and £18.7million.
Meanwhile, Lai has filed complaints for coercion and public insult and has applied for a protection order against the family.
