Wynn was shocked somewhat out of her wits.Why would they call Philip… Mr. Clarke?Wait!This man… This man was the owner of Virtuous Court, Javier Morris!He had personally attended Wynn’s father’s birthday party last time, bringing with him good wine and even a platinum membership card!Besides, Wynn clearly remembered that he had mentioned Mr. Clarke last time too.Back then, everyone was looking down on Philip, so naturally they would never associate that name with him. Only Wynn paid a little extra attention to that, though soon she too forgot about that as well.Now, though… Right here and now...Javier had approached them once again. This time, he was respectfully calling her husband Mr. Clarke!No matter how ignorant Wynn might be, by now she would have started to piece some things together.So that night, Javier had given her father that gift in Philip’s stead, huh?It went without saying that Philip noticed the gears turning in Wynn’s head.Crap. She must be onto
He hung up.Aiden’s entire face was red from the laughter he was holding back. Soon, though, he burst out laughing with Dan and the others, pointing at Philip and taunting him, “Well, f*ck me sideways! Philip, are you a f*cking idiot? You want to destroy my dad’s company and mine in ten minutes? You?”Aiden was so angry that all he could do was laugh. Had Philip gone absolutely insane?However, Philip merely smiled calmly and said, “You’ll know soon enough.”At the same time, George was already getting to work on his end.It was ridiculously easy for him to take down Splendor Education Group and Stardream Media.He just had to dig up some dirt on them, right? Easy peasy.Soon enough, thanks to George’s machinations, he received files full of Splendor Education Group and Stardream Media’s dirtiest secrets.George just gave the information a glance before handing them to his subordinates for follow-up.After that, he picked up his phone and called his young master. “It’s all
Wynn’s eyes widened. They had been married for so long, but even now she did not know about Philip’s past. His parents did not even congratulate them in person at their wedding.Wynn had asked him many times before this, but he had glossed over the question every time.After a long time, Wynn began to assume that Philip was an orphan who did not want to relive his painful past, so she stopped asking.However, the way Philip held himself today, his methods or rather his attitude, all of it was vastly different from the mild-mannered wimp he had always been before.He had changed. All of a sudden, she could not quite recognize him anymore.Even so, Wynn could tell that his love for her was sincere.“Are you finally willing to tell me?” Wynn asked uncertainly.Philip nodded and looked up at the deep sky. Keeping a completely straight face, he said, “Actually, Wynn, my family is quite wealthy. I never told you because I had a huge fight with my parents and ran away from home.”“You
All the wrongs and pressure she had suffered these past few days made her collapse in an instant.It was all so much for her that she hammered his chest with her little fists, berating him softly, “It’s all your fault. Why didn’t you tell me earlier? I went begging and pleading everywhere. Don’t you know I never begged anyone for anything before? Sob…”Wynn cried her heart out. Philip hugged her even more tightly. “Sorry, Wynn, it was my fault. I promised you that I would give you and Mila a bright future. Please believe me.”More than five minutes passed like that before Wynn’s emotions finally settled down.After that, she asked Philip worriedly, her eyes red, “Since you got into such a huge fight with your parents, do you still have enough money to pay for Mila’s surgery?”Philip was a little awkward and sheepish as he said, “Actually, I have a card. It probably has a couple million in there. I never took it out before because I didn’t want to scare you. You don’t have to worry
Martha was beyond furious!‘This good-for-nothing thinks that he can afford it? Does he think that he has the money? At this point in time, this useless piece of trash is still holding on to his ego shamelessly.’ Martha glared at Philip impatiently and said with a mocking sneer, "Philip, what did you just say? You don't want our family's 500,000 dollars and can afford it yourself? Okay, okay, so you're a big shot now? You think you’re too good for the Johnston family. Great, then you can divorce Wynn as soon as possible. My daughter is so beautiful, so she can easily marry into a wealthy family in the future!"Philip had a sullen expression. He said helplessly, "Mom, I actually have...""What do you have? You want to say that you are loaded?" Martha sneered disdainfully, then pointed at him before saying to Mila arrogantly, "If it weren't for you two, Wynn wouldn’t have to suffer so much. I wouldn’t be in a situation where I can't hold my head up high in front of my side of the fa
Smack!It was a crisp-sounding slap!Martha cursed at her, "Get out of this house! Don’t ever come back! You are no longer a child of mine!"It was heart-rending for Philip when he saw Wynn get slapped. He stared at Martha with an angry gaze, champing to tear her apart!Even if she was his mother-in-law, she had bullied Wynn, so Philip needed to step in to teach her a lesson!Philip put down Mila and walked over angrily with a daunting expression.Martha was also frightened and cried out, "You… What do you want to do?""You shouldn't hit Wynn," Philip said coldly. He had his fists squeezed tightly and he was trembling slightly.Wynn, with dazzling red imprints on her face, immediately stopped Philip. "Philip, calm down. Let's head home."She was really afraid that Philip would do something impulsive.If that happened, there would be no way out of it."Okay." Philip's expression gradually softened.Martha was very nervous at first. When she saw Wynn stepping in to stop Phili
Juan was startled. With a suspicious look, he said, "What do you mean?"Suddenly, he felt that the Philip in front of him today was a little different. However, he could not really put a finger on what was different about Philip.Philip said indifferently, "Don’t worry about it. I just want to tell you that I can do what you can't do."Philip had endured Juan's provocation for a long time.Today, he did not mind letting Juan know about his actual capabilities."Philip, have you gone mad? Are you trying to tell me that the patient that Professor Turner is meeting today is Mila?" Juan said in a mocking tone with a cold expression in his eyes.‘Who does this piece of trash think he is? Professor Turner is a legend. Even for someone with my background, I had to beg him for a long time. So how can someone like Philip get in contact with him?’Philip did not deny it but instead smiled faintly. "You'll find out in a while.""Okay, Philip, you have become a better liar now. Do you know
Juan was not to blame. After all, he did not have the capacity to think about why Professor Turner was coming to the emergency room.In Juan’s mind, the probability that the doctor that Philip had been in contact with was Professor Turner was impossibly low. Wynn was a little embarrassed. She did not want Philip to be looked down on again.Philip mentioned previously that he had been in contact with Professor Turner.However, no one believed him, not even Wynn.That was the case even after Philip opened up to her last night and told her that his family was fairly comfortable and that he had around two million dollars in savings.However, she was partial to Juan when it came to the matter of Professor Turner.After all, even if one had the money, one may not necessarily have the connection.Furthermore, Wynn still doubted whether Philip really had two million dollars."Philip, forget about it. Just apologize to Juan, there is no need to go on like this." Wynn looked at Philip
