Philip turned around and saw his mother-in-law approaching him with a confused expression on her face. Her eyebrows were twisted into a deep frown, and she looked extremely unhappy. At this moment, Martha simply could not hide her contempt for Philip. The two ladies next to her were elegantly and luxuriously dressed. One of them was Martha’s sister, Paula. Philip did not recognize the other person as it was the first time he met her, but from her looks and appearance, she was from no ordinary family. Since both Martha and Paula were trying their best to please the other party, it was conceivable that her identity was quite special. “What are you doing here?” Martha was quite surprised to run into Philip here, but she was even more upset to see him. She had finally begged Paula to introduce her to a distant branch relative of the Longford family to bring them for a look at the villas in Longford Park. However, they ran into this useless son-in-law of hers. If the other par
Martha hurried to explain. “No way, don’t listen to his nonsense. If he can buy a villa here, I’d serve him tea and wait on him every day.” Hmph! Barb sneered and said, “Do you think that Longford Park is a vegetable market where just anybody can buy as they please?” Martha quickly acquiesced. “Yes, you’re right.” After that, she glared at Philip and walked up to him angrily. She raised her hand and slapped him while shouting, “Get the hell out of here! Do you still want to stay here and embarrass me further?” Philip did not expect that he would be slapped. The expression on his face hardened as his eyes turned cold. It was not only a day or two that he had tolerated Martha Yates. Unfortunately, the vindictive woman standing in front of him was Wynn’s mother. Philip shook his head helplessly. He turned around and walked toward Tiger and the Maybach. Barb and Paula were full of contempt at Philip’s actions. Had that guy gone mad? That was a Maybach! Did he delive
Philip looked at the phone display with a frown and connected the call. On the other end of the line, the sounds of crying and angry shouts came through. “Philip, come and save me. I… I got into an accident with your car, and the other party wants me to pay 20 million…” “Accident? What kind of damages cost 20 million?” Philip got a shock. Lynn was just too unreliable, getting into an accident just like that. That was a Ferrari! She got into an accident and the other party was demanding 20 million in compensation? Was it possible that the other party drove a luxury car too? Was this the day for luxury bumper cars? Lynn could not explain clearly over the phone. She was just crying and shouting. “Philip, come here quickly! There are so many of them. If I don’t pay up, they said they’ll take me away and go to my house to look for my parents!” Philip caved in and hurriedly said, “Wait for me, I’ll be there soon.” Philip hung up the phone, got into Tiger’s car, and rushed
As soon as Lynn finished her sentence, the crowd burst into laughter. “The f*ck! She doesn’t even recognize a Ferrari Enzo.” “So embarrassing. That’s an Enzo, a top-notch sports car! It’s a Ferrari royalty, a super sports car that’s no longer in production!” “But of course. Only a few hundred vehicles were produced in the world, and in this country, only six or seven are here!” Listening to the crowd’s discussion, Lynn began to realize that the situation was not quite right. There were only six or seven in the country? A Ferrari royalty, a super sports car that was no longer in production? Oh no! Lynn panicked all of a sudden, and her eyes started drifting. She still said stiffly, “I don’t believe you. My cousin-in-law will be here soon.” Lynn stomped her foot bitterly. The discussions of the onlookers had deflated her bubble a little. Across from her, the few young men simply chuckled. The owner of the Ferrari Enzo, the young man in the white shirt, said, “Okay,
Philip came running from a distance and rushed into the crowd. He grabbed hold of Lynn and asked in concern, “Lynn, are you alright?” Lynn wept bitterly and threw herself into Philip’s arms, crying, “Philip, they… They want me to accompany them to sing and dance. They said if I don’t sleep with them, I have to pay 20 million!” Boohoo! Lynn sobbed piteously. Philip comforted her and said, “Okay, okay. Just leave everything to me. It’s going to be fine.” Lynn rubbed her teary red eyes and asked cautiously, “Really? It’s 20 million. Philip, do you have so much money?” Philip shrugged, turned toward the few arrogant young men, and said, “Isn’t it just 20 million? Why are you pulling her into the car?” The leading guy in the white shirt chuckled. He scrutinized Philip from top to bottom before pointing at his nose. “F*ck! Where did a beggar like you come from? Are you trying to stick your nose in here?” “What the hell? Open your blind eyes and see clearly. This is the Ferrar
“I’m telling you, this car is not mine, but you don’t believe me. Now, not only do you want me to pay 20 million, but you also want me to pay over one million for the car repair fees,” Philip put out his hands and said helplessly.It was time to teach his cousin-in-law a lesson. If not, she would not remember her place.She was so arrogant and bossy. How would she survive when she stepped foot into society?“Ah!”Lynn was stunned. She stomped her feet in frustration. “Why didn’t you tell me earlier? What should I do? It’s more than 20 million! Sob, sob, sob…”Lynn was horrified. She squatted down on the street and started crying without caring about her image.Philip waited for her while she cried and sighed. Then, he was about to walk over and negotiate with the few youngsters.Lynn stood up suddenly and ran. While she was running, she shouted, “It’s his car! Go ask for money from him!”Everyone was completely shocked.A second later, Lynn had vanished from their sight.Damn
Martha started to panic. She rubbed her eyes furiously. She wanted to go and take a closer look.Her eyesight was not that good, so she was scared that she might just be seeing things.“Hey, why are you running around on your own? You can’t see this! Get out now!”Suddenly, a tall and slender maid stormed in and stood in front of Martha. She brought her out and shut the door of the room.This was the master bedroom. How could she barge in on her own?This woman was so full of herself. How dare she wander around on her own.She told Martha she could only visit the first floor. The second floor was forbidden!Martha did not have the chance to give the wedding photo another glance before she was pushed out. She was being kept on tenterhooks.“I’m sorry, I was lost.” Martha explained timidly.The maid peered at her coldly and mumbled, “Go downstairs now. Your friends are waiting for you downstairs.”Martha could not do anything more, so she went downstairs. She ran into Barb and
“Mom, I really…”“Enough! Shut up, why are you still lying?”Martha was mad. This useless guy was still lying about this? “Right, come back for a while. There’s going to be a guest in the house. Come back and act as the supporting role.”After she said that, Martha hung up the phone. She slammed the phone down on the coffee table with her cheeks puffed in anger.“What’s wrong? Did Philip make you upset again?” Charles asked after noticing the changes in Martha’s expression.“That wretched bum is still lying to me. He said he bought a house at Longford Park. You have no idea, the mansions over there cost at least 35 million! Is he crazy? How can he say something like this?”Martha gritted her teeth in anger.Charles shook his head helplessly. He sighed and asked all of a sudden, “Will you move there if he has really bought a house at Longford Park?”Martha was taken aback. She frowned and pointed at the door after getting up. She shouted, “He’s just a worthless piece of trash. H
