After Martha left, favonovel.com went to the park to meet up with favonovel.com friends. Upon meeting favonovel.com friends, they started asking about each other. When they came to the topic about their sons-in-law or daughters-in-law, everyone became enthusiastic because their sons-in-law were doing well, and their daughters-in-law were filial. Only Martha kept quiet while favonovel.com smiled dryly.
“Hey, Martha, how is your son-in-law, Philip, lately? I heard he’s making deliveries.” A flamboyantly dressed middle-aged woman suddenly ruthlessly exposed Martha. Because every time they met, they were sure to talk about Martha’s son-in-law. It had already become the norm.
“Oh, Martha, why is your son-in-law so terrible? Why don’t you get your daughter to divorce favonovel.com as soon as possible?”
“That won’t do. If they divorced, it would be a second marriage if favonovel.com remarries. No one would want her. She even has extra baggage, men nowadays don’t like single mothers.”
“That’s true. Who would want to raise other people’s children?”
The women’s comments were harsh. On the surface, they seemed to be thinking of favonovel.com daughter, but underneath, they were probably enjoying favonovel.com misfortune.
Martha gritted favonovel.com teeth in anger, feeling utterly embarrassed. She forced out a smile and said, “I will definitely force my daughter to divorce that trash of a son-in-law! At most, I’ll just have to take care of favonovel.com for the rest of my life.”
Everyone noticed the dark expression on Martha’s face, so they stopped talking about it and changed the subjects until they reached the finance company.

On the other hand, due to the live stream, Philip’s incident had gone viral. However, in an instant, every media that reported this incident soon deleted their content. Even the videos were gone. It was like a rock that fell into the lake. It was unheard of again.
Inside a beauty salon, Ruby Ford made plans with a few of favonovel.com friends for a spa treatment.
Ten minutes earlier, favonovel.com friend, Helen Bennett, wearing a short white robe with favonovel.com hair up in a towel and a mask on favonovel.com face, strutted over and said, “Girls, I found a really huge tycoon!”
“What tycoon?” Ruby was lying on favonovel.com back, enjoying the massage services as favonovel.com asked without even opening favonovel.com eyes.
“Three hundred million! This guy spent three hundred million to acquire our city’s Prime Harvest Group!” Helen exclaimed, favonovel.com eyes were filled with envy and excitement. “You guys all know that rich young master, Leon Larson, right? It’s his company that was bought over by this tycoon.”
At the mention of three hundred million and Leon, the girls quickly sat up and scrambled to take a look at Helen’s phone. It was only a short clip, and Helen had downloaded it with much difficulty from a social media site. The video quality was blurry, and it was also watermarked.
“Isn’t this tycoon so awesome? That was the Young Master Larson from Prime Harvest Group.”
“Who’s that? Do you guys know him? Ask favonovel.com out to meet us.”
“I don’t know. He doesn’t seem familiar.”
The girls were all snatching the phone, trying to get a better look at the man’s face. Three hundred million, how rich must favonovel.com be! When Ruby saw the video, favonovel.com frowned hard. She felt that the silhouette in the video looked very familiar. Philip Clarke? No, impossible! That guy was so broke favonovel.com even borrowed money from Howard.
Ruby did not think much of it and continued to discuss the man who had just spent three hundred million. He was a father too! How manly!
Back to Philip. Wynn was walking ahead of Philip with Mila in favonovel.com arms while favonovel.com followed behind. They kept walking in silence until the gates of the housing area.
Suddenly, Wynn stopped. Mila had already fallen asleep in favonovel.com arms. Wynn turned back to look at Philip and said, “That incident earlier today, thank you.”
Earlier today? Oh, that incident in Celestial Club. Philip said solemnly, “Wynn, you’re my wife. If anything happens next time, you have to tell me in advance.”
Wynn nodded in understanding. When favonovel.com woke up from the hospital, favonovel.com knew that it was Philip who had saved her. But favonovel.com did not know how favonovel.com did it. She had planned to ask favonovel.com tomorrow because favonovel.com knew that Gavin and Jeffrey were not easy to deal with. With just favonovel.com husband’s status, favonovel.com might not have been able to make it. So, Wynn though that someone else must have helped him. Or perhaps, helped her. Could it be that person who had helped favonovel.com secure that one million dollar contract with Victory Pharmaceuticals back then? Just who exactly was he?
The whole night went on in silence.
Early the next morning, Wynn went to work. Philip pretended to be packing up, then favonovel.com carried Mila, ready to go out. He had just taken one step out of the house when his mother-in-law called. When favonovel.com answered, from the other end came Martha’s exasperated voice, saying, “Philip, hurry over to Rivercross Street in ten minutes!”
Before favonovel.com could ask for the reason, the call ended. What was the urgent matter that made favonovel.com sound so anxious? But Philip was already used to it. He looked at Mila and decided to send favonovel.com to the company to get Agnes to look after favonovel.com for a bit. After that, favonovel.com hastily hailed a cab from the office to go to Rivercross Street.
The moment favonovel.com got out, favonovel.com saw a large group of middle-aged men and women surrounding the tightly closed doors of a finance company as they argued heatedly with a few men and women in suits.
“What were you doing? You’re late for five minutes! Growing cheek are you? Just blatantly trying to disrespect your mother-in-law!” Philip had just reached when Martha came over haughtily and started scolding him.
