Philip knew they would not believe him, so he purposely said that.Sometimes, people would not want to believe the truth.Martha did not say anything. It was unclear what she was thinking about. Then, she said in a commanding tone, “You don’t need to go to Wynn’s grandfather’s birthday that’s happening in two days. Just stay home.”Martha’s father would be celebrating his 70th birthday the day after tomorrow. She did not want to bring this cowardly man over.If not, she would be shamed endlessly by her family members from her maternal home.Plus, the old master had always been unhappy about Wynn’s marriage. Would she be congratulating her father or infuriating him by bringing Philip back?Philip expected this, so he did not say anything. He took out a box from his pocket and said, “Mom, this is the gift I prepared for the old master.”Martha looked at the embroidered box on the table and murmured, “What’s this? The box looks so bad. Are you giving him something that’s only worth

It was a huge occasion!Old Master Yates’ name was Bob Yates. He was a high-ranking secretary of an organization and held an important position. He had many students, and it could be said that he was highly respected.After he retired, he went back to Yates Village a

Philip looked at the woman in front of him coldly. This was the woman he had wronged seven years ago. He said, “Chloe, don’t involve other people in our business. Don’t cause any trouble for my family.”Slap!Chloe got up and slapped Philip across the face. Then, she glared at him and said, “What happened between you and me will not end so easily. Don’t forget how you left me without a word and how much you’ve hurt me!”Chloe’s heart pounded when she saw Philip. After all, they had not seen each other for seven years.She had even looked forward to this.However, Philip’s eyes and expression just now betrayed how he truly felt.Chloe was a woman, so she knew how Philip was feeling. He only cared about that woman named Wynn.“Chloe, what happened seven years ago was my fault. It’s fine if you want to punish me. However, you can’t do anything to Wynn. This is my warning for you,” Philip said. If Chloe really touched Wynn, Philip would fight back without a second thought.“Warni

“Mom, I didn’t. Maybe Wynn’s just exhausted.” Philip explained.However, Martha did not believe him. She looked at him with the corner of her eyes and her face was as cold as stagnant water. She pointed at Philip’s nose and started shouting, “Do you think I won’t understand the daughter I gave birth to? Philip, don’t say that I never warned you. A man like you is not a match for my daughter at all! If you’re smart, you should divorce Wynn as soon as possible. Stop hindering Wynn from marrying into a rich family!”Philip was helpless when he was faced with Martha’s arrogance and bossiness.Martha was not the only one who was annoyed. Philip was feeling frustrated as well. After being accused by Martha, Philip’s tone became slightly awful.“Alright, I got it. Can you stop nagging? This is between me and Wynn. We will take care of this,” Philip replied coldly. There was no warmth in his eyes. Martha was shocked by that ominous glint in his eyes.Martha was enraged. How dare he talk t

Wynn was crying from frustration. She stomped her feet and went back to her bedroom. Then, she slammed the door.Martha was stunned, but she shook her head while feeling pleased with herself. Then, she looked at Charles as if she was showing off. She stood up with a devilish grin on her face. She happily brought everything back to her room.After that, Martha remembered that there was something off about Philip.Miss Sommerset gave them so many expensive gifts for no reason. Plus, judging from Wynn’s reaction, they must be hiding something from her.“Charlie, what do you think is wrong with Philip? Why did Miss Sommerset send so many expensive things to us?” Martha asked.She was constantly thinking about Miss Sommerset.Why would a normal friend send them so many expensive things?It seemed that Philip and Miss Sommerset’s relationship was not that ordinary.Charles was studying his calligraphies. He answered, “You should ask Wynn. She might know.”Martha pressed her lips tog
