Philip was powerless as he got chased out of the house just like that.Standing at the entrance, he could still hear Martha’s tirade in the house.After brief consideration, Philip called George. “Old Man George, can you help me keep a lookout for any houses on sale recently? Wynn’s mother is thinking of buying a villa. If she asks about it, you can handle it on your own.”“Sure, Young Master. I know what to do,” on the other end of the line, George responded respectfully.After hanging up the phone, George immediately notified his secretary to contact all the real estate agents in Riverdale.As long as Martha had inquired about a villa to any real estate agent, the price would be reduced by half.In that case, even Martha would be able to afford it.After the arrangement, George responded to Philip who immediately gave his assent.He would treat that as a gift to the Johnston family. After all, Philip had not given anything to Martha in the past three years.After Philip left
Philip helped Wynn put on her helmet before he bopped her on the nose and said, “Nothing much. It’s just a company vehicle, that’s all.”With that said, he quickly started the vehicle and turned the handlebars. The BMW motorcycle roared to life pleasantly!It was the dream of every man.“Hold on tight.” Philip chuckled.The vehicle zoomed out quickly like a drift.Wynn sat behind Philip, her arms tight around his waist. She got a fright just now!When cornering, Philip actually imitated the moves of the bike racers on TV, leaning low into the corner!It was too cool!That scene attracted many passersby to cheer and take pictures of them.Was he still the trashy husband of hers?He even knew how to do stunts like this!Wynn stared at Philip’s back, her heart full of questions.How much did she not know about her own husband?Very soon, they arrived at the sales office of Hillside Villa on the bike.Wynn got down first and quickly dashed into the office.Philip had to park
“My mother-in-law and father-in-law are here to look at houses. Why are you chasing them away?”Philip appeared at the door. With his face stoic, he walked in one step at a time.His gaze immediately locked on Wynn’s left cheek that had an obvious red print. His wife got hit during the time he parked the bike?Philip walked up to Wynn and touched her left cheek. With fury in his eyes, he demanded to know. “Who did this?”With tears in her eyes, Wynn glanced at the flashy woman but shook her head and said, “It’s nothing. Let’s go.”Wynn was angry, but she did not want to cause any trouble. After all, the other party had connections in the family. As a commoner, she could not afford to provoke them.However, the unexpected happened.Philip said grimly, “That won’t do. In this world, no one can hit my wife, no matter who they are. Even if it’s the king of heaven, he must kneel and beg for your forgiveness.”He was brimming with dominance!The entire sales office fell silent.Eve
Wynn was standing right next to Philip, watching everything unfold without a word.This man was so familiar to her, but also so unfamiliar.Martha and Charles had long since been stunned into silence. They exchanged a look and found oceans of fury in each other’s eyes. “Do you have any idea what you’ve done, Philip? Why the hell did you do that? Her brother is the Chief Staff Sergeant! We’re screwed, you’ve condemned us all to death!”Martha immediately shoved Philip and yelled at him, then she just sat her butt on the floor and began bawling unreasonably.Philip really hated the way Martha made a huge scene out of everything. She was always so ignorant and ungrateful.“It’s fine, Mom. I can handle this,” Philip said calmly.“As if you can handle anything! You’re just a good-for-nothing! Oh, you’ll be the death of us all!” Martha scolded him angrily. She wanted nothing more than to rip him to shreds right now.That cursed Philip Clarke was truly a blight on her life.If the w
“Haha! Not bad, punk. You’re pretty bold for someone who just committed an assault. In fact, you’re the ballsiest one I’ve seen so far.”Manson sniggered and grabbed the cuffs from the table, dangling them in front of Philip. “Do you want to cuff yourself, or do you want me to do it?”The flashy woman next to him interrupted, “I wanna do it!”However, Philip merely said calmly, “You just want money, right? State your price.”Everyone went silent at that.The flashy woman exchanged a look with Manson and discretely held up two fingers.Manson understood in an instant. With a smile, he said, “Since you offered, let’s do two million, and we’ll consider this water under the bridge. After all, I can’t just let you get away with hitting my sister for nothing.”Philip nodded and actually agreed. “Alright. Two million it is.”That was enough to spread smiles across the three people sitting opposite him.They did not expect this broke-*ss punk to actually have some money behind him. He
Wynn stared directly at Philip, her eyes filled with suspicion.Just who was her husband, really? Why was a man as powerful as Theo Zander treating him with such respect and gravitas?It was not just Wynn, either. Martha and Charles were also looking at him with eyes widened in surprise.They had met Theo Zander before at the Old Master’s birthday.The Old Master had treated Theo with significant reverence.Yet now, Theo was treating that useless Philip even more respectfully.What kind of a sick joke was this?Martha’s eyes narrowed in suspicion and she looked Philip up and down. She just could not find anything special or impressive about Philip at all.With that, she was even more certain now that Theo was a nobody too.If he had to treat a piece of trash with such respect, he must not be all that either. Had her old father gone blind? Why was he so polite to a mere thug like that?On the other hand, Manson also blinked slightly when he saw that Philip had really called
There were many sales personnel and prospective buyers in the large sales office, all of them gathered to watch the drama. Now, however, all of them were feeling rather lost.Manson had been quite cocky just a while ago, but he was the Chief Staff Sergeant around these parts. He had a reputation of getting up to such antics, but no one dared to really cross him at all.Yet here he was, slapping his younger sister without hesitation. "Why did you hit me, Manny?" The flashy woman was utterly shell-shocked, holding her face with hurt written all over her eyes.She had lost the two teeth she had just gotten fixed today. After that, even her own brother slapped her twice. What on earth was happening?"B*tch! I told you to get on your knees and apologize to this man and his lady! And their parents too! Are you disobeying me?"Manson was especially furious. His sister was being so stupid! Could she still not read the situation?Everyone was once again blind-sided.Just a second a
"There should be a billion bucks in that card," Philip said mildly, raising his brow as he wore a confident smile. Wynn paused and stared at Phillip suspiciously, her heart pounding in her chest.After that, though, she rolled her eyes at him again and pinched his waist, berating him, "You're pulling my leg again, aren't you? If you really have a billion, I'll have to serve you for the rest of my life."Philip grinned at that and put his arm around Wynn's slender neck. "You said it, not me. Come on, let's make that an official contract."Wynn batted his arm away and scolded him with a laugh, "Alright, alright. So you insist you have a billion? Sheesh, you don't have to tell me if you don't want to. But you're not handwaving this off today. I demand an explanation once we get back."Wynn raised her brows and rolled her eyes at him.She did not believe that he really was a billionaire. To her, it was just Philip's idea of a joke.Even if he did tell her that his family ran Northe
