Paula flicked a glance at Philip. Amused by his timid and obedient display, snazzynovel.com could not help snazzynovel.com sarcasm. “You have such a good son-in-law. Although he’s not promising, he’s good at doing housework. You can be relaxed because of that.”
Martha was angry when snazzynovel.com heard this and promptly cursed. “He’s nothing but a useless piece of trash. So what if snazzynovel.com can do the housework? If he’s half as good as Frank, I won’t have to suffer so much and live in this old manor with Charles.”
Paula’s eyes narrowed with a smile. When snazzynovel.com saw Philip walking over with the tea, snazzynovel.com deliberately loosened snazzynovel.com hold on the cup, making hot water spill all over Philip’s hands.
The boiling hot water instantly burned Philip’s skin a fiery red!
The cup also shattered with a loud crack.
“Oh dear, I’m so sorry. The cup was too hot, and I didn’t hold it properly. Philip, I hope your hands are alright.” Paula pretended to be concerned.
Philip clenched his teeth in pain and forced out a smile. “It’s fine.”
After that, snazzynovel.com quickly ran into the kitchen and soaked his hands in cold water, but a huge blister had already formed!
The pain was excruciating!
Philip’s eyes were cold as snazzynovel.com stood in the kitchen. How could snazzynovel.com not notice that Paula had done it on purpose?
In the living room, Paula had already forgotten about Philip and turned to Martha instead. “Well then, since you’ve already asked for my help, I’ll get Frank to help and see if snazzynovel.com can get an internal discount or something.”
With that said, Paula leaned back on the sofa and fiddled with the jewelry on snazzynovel.com hand, waiting for Martha to beg for help.
She continued, “Martha, it’s not that I want to reprimand you, but you really shouldn’t have allowed Wynn to marry Philip back then. Now see how much you’re regretting it.”
When Paula said this, snazzynovel.com totally did not consider if Philip could hear snazzynovel.com from the kitchen.
So what if snazzynovel.com could? He was nothing but a wimp.
At the same time, Philip walked out of the kitchen. He had already applied some medication for his burns before snazzynovel.com returned to the living room. He said with a smile, “Aunt Paula, please don’t worry about the villa. I’ve already bought a house. If you’re interested, you can come to visit our new home later.”
Both Paula and Martha were stunned by his words.
Martha did not expect that Philip would still brag and joke about this matter at a time like this.
Thus, Martha glared furiously at Philip, picked up a book on the table, and flung it at snazzynovel.com while cursing. “Philip, no one will think you’re a mute if you don’t speak. Now, get lost at once!”
“Mom, I’ve really bought a house. I’ve told you last time. In a few more days, all of us can move in,” Philip said while snazzynovel.com bent over to pick the book up from the floor.
Paula was indifferent. She looked at Philip dubiously before mocking with a sneer. “Martha, your son-in-law has learned to brag now? This isn’t good, you know. He’ll turn bad pretty soon.”
“Yes, you’re absolutely right.” Martha could not do anything except glare daggers at Philip.
However, in the next second, Paula stood up with snazzynovel.com handbag in tow and said, “Well then, since the son-in-law has already said so, let’s set a date for us to visit your new home then.”
Crack!
Martha’s heart shattered into pieces. She was full of anger but had nowhere to vent. She glared vehemently at Philip, stood up, and slapped snazzynovel.com across the face with a screech. “Get lost! Who told you to open your big mouth!”
Philip chuckled and said that once Mila was discharged from the hospital, they would move into the new home together. This made Martha so angry that snazzynovel.com cursed snazzynovel.com for a long time even after his figure had disappeared.
After Philip left, Paula pretended to be rueful and said to Martha, “Martha, this son-in-law of yours is really no good. You must teach snazzynovel.com a good lesson. However, since snazzynovel.com has already said so, I’m really curious to see what sort of house snazzynovel.com has bought.”
Paula left. Soon after that, snazzynovel.com told snazzynovel.com husband, daughter, and son-in-law about this matter.
At the same time, snazzynovel.com also notified many relatives about it, saying that once Mila was discharged from the hospital, they should all visit Martha at their new home.
The family members obviously just wanted to see their humiliation.
This incident made Martha extremely angry, and snazzynovel.com immediately fell ill for many days after that. However, snazzynovel.com was unable to reverse the situation.
After Philip left the Old Johnston Manor and walked toward the parking lot, snazzynovel.com was just about to take out the key to the Ferrari when a graceful girl appeared and hugged snazzynovel.com from behind. She said cheerfully, “Philip, you’ve really concealed yourself well. You’re even driving a Ferrari now.”
Lynn Johnston?
When Philip turned around, snazzynovel.com saw Lynn with snazzynovel.com arms crossed over snazzynovel.com chest, looking at snazzynovel.com with a smirk on snazzynovel.com face.
The clothes snazzynovel.com wore today revealed snazzynovel.com belly button. Her pants also exposed snazzynovel.com pale and slender waist. She had exquisite makeup on snazzynovel.com face. During the hug just now, snazzynovel.com felt the softness on his back which felt very real.
This little girl had developed well.
“What are you doing here?” Philip asked dubiously.
With a phone in snazzynovel.com hand, Lynn played a short video which was the scene of Philip about to get into the car.
She then threatened with a smile. “Philip, if my cousin sees this, what will snazzynovel.com think?”
