“Excuse me, but we’re busy.” Wynn smiled apologetically, not wanting to argue with someone like Muriel. During college, Wynn already knew that Muriel was a snobby and selfish person. “Hehe, why? Did I touch on a sore spot?” Muriel crossed her arms over her chest with a disdainful look, glanced at Philip, and sneered, “Wynn, I don’t want to talk bad about you, but you’re the campus belle after all. How could you actually marry him? Just look at him. Your man looks exactly like a loafer.” “Watch your words. He’s my husband!” Wynn said angrily, her face grim. However, instead of listening, Muriel sneered even louder and grabbed the little clothes in Wynn's hand. She said, “Hey, these are branded goods. Can you afford them? Are children born to parents with income disparity like you worthy of branded names?” Worthy? Of course not! In Muriel’s eyes, Wynn belonged to the lower echelons of society. Since two years ago, she had long heard about Philip’s trashiness. It was j
Philip chastised Muriel relentlessly! Muriel just stared at Philip blankly. She never expected this guy to have such a way with words! “Do you think you can do as you please just because you have foreign citizenship? You can insult people? Who gave you the right?” Philip yelled loudly. Muriel dared not rebuke. This was because the crowd around them had started talking about this, even criticizing Muriel! “Yes! A few days ago, there was news that several foreigners did not abide by the traffic regulations. They only received verbal warnings, but our locals were fined!” “Why are they treated differently? We should be equal!” “This b*tch really thinks that she’s so great! She’s just a foreign-idolizing turncoat!” In the crowd, the discussion completely exploded. Muriel had aroused public outrage. “You! What do country bumpkins like you know? Foreigners are better than you. They’re more cultured than any of you!” Muriel retorted doggedly as she pointed at everyone. As
The two lost their mood for shopping, so they decided to return to the villa. As soon as they returned, Wynn took advantage of the time when Philip was playing with Mila to run back to the bedroom. She took out the USB flash drive on the bedside table. After thinking about it, she went to the study, switched on the computer, and inserted the flash drive. It was a video. Wynn clicked on it apprehensively. It was also at this time that Philip suddenly came in while carrying the antenatal medicine. He said with a smile, “What are you busy with? It’s time for your medication.” Wynn forced out a smile and quickly switched to a different tab. “Nothing much, just looking at some numbers.” Philip glanced at her screen. He noticed the USB flash drive but did not say anything. After Wynn had taken the medicine, Philip showed no signs of leaving the room. The atmosphere in the room became a bit awkward. At this time, cries from Mila sounded downstairs, accompanied by Martha’s
Martha was in an absolute panic now. Philip seemed like he was being very serious. He dared to demand money from her! “Wynnie, Wynnie, just look at him. What the hell is Philip trying to do? Is he really going to take it that far?” Martha pulled on Wynn as she wailed and sobbed. This trick had been used repeatedly. However... Today, Martha had played the wrong cards. With Mila in her arms, Wynn turned around, glared at Martha, and said coldly, “Mom, I’ve had enough of you. Don’t look for my help today. I won’t speak on your behalf anymore.” With that said, Wynn took Mila and sat in the corner, watching the scene. Right now, Martha was truly abandoned by her family. She sat on the ground and started kicking up a big fuss. “Philip Clarke, I’m your mother-in-law, after all. Are you really going to kick me out? Are you still human? “You’ve been in the Johnston family for so many years, eating our food and living in our house. Am I not kind enough to you? I just beat
Philip explained no further.Here, several security guards received the order and rushed into the bedroom immediately. They quickly moved out all the belongings of Martha and Charles. At the door, the truck from the relocation company had also arrived. In less than 20 minutes, everything belonging to Martha and Charles was emptied from the villa. Martha and Charles stood at the gates of the villa. The latter sighed with emotion and shook his head helplessly. Martha was reluctant. She stared at the villa with tears in her eyes and sobbed. “Charles, talk to Philip. I don’t want to move away from here.” However, Charles paid her no heed, shook his head, and said, “Let’s go. What else do you want? He’s already kicked us out. It’s all because of you!” Martha finally got to live in a villa after much difficulty. She refused to leave so easily. She wiped her tears, hardened her resolve, and ran in front of Philip. She bent her knees and knelt with a thud! She knelt! Martha Ya
With that sentence, the temperature in the house dropped. Martha was flustered. Was she supposed to drug them again? “No, Madam Wallis, I’m afraid I can’t do this anymore. The last time… Philip found out about it, and…” Martha stammered her refusal. Smack! With a forceful slap, Giada stared at Martha coldly through her sunglasses, exuding a biting chill. She said, “You didn’t complete the task last time. Not coming after you is already a gift to you. How dare you refuse now?” This time, Martha covered her face, lowered her head, and dared not say anything else. The intensity was too overwhelming! Just one look from Giada and Martha was trembling all over, drenched in a cold sweat. “What… What is it?” In the end, Martha could not withstand Giada’s aura and asked weakly. Giada said mildly, “During Wynn’s next pregnancy check, I want to know the gender of the baby. If it’s a boy, let Wynn take this.” With that, the bodyguard next to Giada immediately took out a small
Muriel was also around at this time. She was sitting on Carr’s lap while saying coquettishly, “Dear, won’t you do it for me? Let’s get back at her for my sake, okay?”Carr spread his hands and looked helpless. He spoke in a heavy accent, “Muriel, Beacon Group is one of the few large companies in Riverdale. Moreover, they’ll soon launch a new drug in the market that will bring new blood to the pharmaceutical industry. I can’t just issue a drug prohibition order to them because of personal enmity. It violates my work ethics.” “No way! I can’t stand that Wynn Johnston! She just got the position of chairwoman, right? No wonder she was so smug the other day!” Muriel was adamant, so she got off Carr’s lap and said bitterly, “You must help me in this matter. Otherwise, I’ll send the evidence of your affairs with those little vixens in the association to your workgroup!” When Carr heard this, he was angry. With his face flushed red, he said, “Muriel, have you been investigating me?” M
Wynn came to the company and presided over the situation. A meeting of the board of directors was also held urgently. “What should we do now? What is the medical association trying to do? Why did they cancel our qualifications for no reason?” “Who knows? But I heard that Madam Johnston has offended someone from Golden City Medical Association, so they’re deliberately causing trouble for us.” “Really? How come I’ve never heard about it? Will this company still continue to operate? Stopping production for three months, how big of a loss will we incur? Won’t our investment all be in vain then?” The entire conference room was in total chaos. The board members were all talking about it and all kinds of rumors were flying in the air. The door of the conference room was pushed open, and Wynn appeared in front of everyone while wearing a black trench coat. She walked straight to the main seat. The noise in the conference room decreased. However, someone said in dissatisfactio
