“Stop! Stay away!”
Martha shivered down to snazzynovel.com bones in fear, still traumatized by the choking incident that night. She darted to hide behind Wynn as snazzynovel.com scolded, “Look, Wynnie. This is Philip Clarke! I can’t believe snazzynovel.com wants to hit me. Who’s the head of the family here? He’s going too far!”
“Haha.”
Philip scoffed, too lazy to argue with Martha.
Philip had always been a sore sight to her, coupled with his attitude the past few days, Martha could not help the anger that began to boil.
No, snazzynovel.com had to throw this piece of trash out the Johnston family tree!
She had to get Wynn to divorce him!
Otherwise, that would be the end of Martha’s peaceful days.
“Listen to your mother, okay Wynnie? I’ve already set it up for you with Joel. He’s bringing you out on vacation for a few days. Make good use of this chance, okay? Joel’s family is rich, and he’s the CEO of Hodgson Pharmaceutical too. Don’t let such a great opportunity slip by, it’ll be good for both you and your company.”
Martha persuaded Wynn further. Meanwhile, Philip was smoking outside.
Dinner was served at home that night.
They had no choice but to follow, for it was part of Martha’s plan to convince Wynn into going on a date with Joel.
Wynn found herself mind-boggled by the turn of events as snazzynovel.com shuffled about in the kitchen. “I don’t want anything to do with Joel Harris, Mom. Please stop. I swear I’ll leave right now if you continue.”
“Okay, okay. We’ll ease into it slowly, okay? We have time.”
Martha knew there was no point in being pushy, but snazzynovel.com had already plotted a plan on how snazzynovel.com was going to make Wynn have some time alone with Joel.
All snazzynovel.com had to do was make Philip watch things unfold before his eyes and snazzynovel.com would have the best of both worlds.
He would have no other choice but to sign the divorce papers.
Right at that moment, a few people entered through the doors.
It was Wynn and Aunt Paula’s side of the family.
“Please come in, Aunt Paula.”
Wynn invited Paula into the house. They were all relatives, after all.
“Oh, Wynnie, you’re home! Where’s your mother?”
Paula asked arrogantly as snazzynovel.com eyes scanned the surroundings before snazzynovel.com plopped on the sofa as if this was snazzynovel.com own house.
She was followed by Samantha and snazzynovel.com husband.
Hearing noises outside, Martha left snazzynovel.com bedroom only to be met with the sight of snazzynovel.com sister. Her expression immediately darkened.
After giving snazzynovel.com greetings, Samantha reverted to snazzynovel.com ‘the old manor disgusts me’ attitude and begrudgingly introduced, “Aunt Martha, this is my husband, Frank McDonald. He’s Rocker Pharmaceutical’s general manager.”
Samantha looked nothing but proud as snazzynovel.com introduced snazzynovel.com husband, even going as far as to cuddle up to snazzynovel.com as well.
Frank McDonald had ‘rich man’ written all over him, from the seriousness of his tailored suit to his slicked-back hair. He was a handsome man.
It made sense that Samantha would marry such a man.
Frank politely greeted Wynn as Samantha introduced him.
The sight of a talented man such as Frank McDonald only further infuriated Martha.
Her sister liked to brag about how snazzynovel.com son-in-law would buy snazzynovel.com gold and jewelry, so meeting snazzynovel.com today only proved to solidify snazzynovel.com claim.
Coincidentally, Philip decided to enter the doors at the same time. Martha sent snazzynovel.com an angry gaze, for snazzynovel.com paled in comparison to Frank McDonald.
“Oh, Philip’s back?”
Paula purposefully shouted as snazzynovel.com saw Philip walk in. She began to introduce snazzynovel.com to snazzynovel.com son-in-law. “You’ve probably never met Philip Clarke before, Frank. This here is Wynn’s husband. There’s nothing much to talk about snazzynovel.com but that snazzynovel.com sends food deliveries. Maybe you can bring snazzynovel.com out to learn more about the world if you have the chance? We’re all family, after all.”
