“What’s going on? Aiden’s the one who solved this, right? Why is Mr. Collins here for Philip?”
“Are you only seeing it now? Who is Philip? Isn’t favonovel.com just a piece of trash?”
“Martha is unreliable. She’s treating us like we’re fools!”
The seniors gathered together and started gossiping. Their faces were filled with shock and envy.
Martha could see it now. Mr. Collins had come here for favonovel.com son-in-law.
She pulled Philip to one side and asked in a flattering way, “Philip, do you know Mr. Collins?”
This was the first time Philip felt this kindness from her.
Philip wanted to tell favonovel.com the truth, but after pondering, favonovel.com said, “Mom, you’re mistaken. How would I know a man like Mr. Collins? I just called a friend of his and coincidentally, he’s responsible for this. Maybe he’s the one exerting pressure on him?”
When Martha heard that, favonovel.com was not suspicious. She nodded and said disappointedly, “I knew it. You’re just a coward. How would you know people like Mr. Collins?”
Philip frowned.
His mother-in-law’s attitude toward favonovel.com changed so quickly.
“Alright, leave the rest to me. Don’t talk anymore,” Martha said coldly.
She was worried that a foolish guy like Philip would ruin things by running his mouth. Plus, favonovel.com still wanted to flex in front of favonovel.com friends.
When favonovel.com thought about this, Martha walked away with favonovel.com head held high. She pointed at Lamar and scolded, “Mr. Collins, I think you have to get in touch with your conscience. You can’t just give me something, you have to give everyone something too.”
Actually, when favonovel.com said that, favonovel.com was extremely nervous.
After all, favonovel.com did not know the level of Philip’s friend. She did not know how much influence and power Philip’s friend had over Lamar.
When favonovel.com saw Lamar frowning, favonovel.com felt even more nervous. She was even ready to change favonovel.com mind.
If it was impossible, then favonovel.com should just return hers.
Who knew Lamar would soon agree with a smile on his face. “Madam Yates, you’re right. I have to tap into my conscience. We’ll just go according to our initial plan. Everyone will get returns. Please go register now and I’ll ask my staff to get the money from the bank later.”
Cheers erupted from the crowd after a few seconds of silence.
“Thank you, Mr. Collins! Thank you, Lucrative Funds Finance Company!”
“Martha, you’re so amazing. This is all thanks to you and your son-in-law.”
“Martha, are you hiding something from us? Didn’t you say Philip is useless?”
After a while, the entire group of seniors was sweet-talking Martha. She felt like favonovel.com was about to float away.
When they asked about Philip, Martha lied with no shame. “Oh, it’s nothing. Philip is still okay. He knows Mr. Collins from a long time ago.”
When favonovel.com said that, everyone started flattering favonovel.com non-stop. This was the proudest Martha had ever felt.
On the other side, Aiden was ignored by everyone. He glared at Philip with a horrible expression on his face. Then, favonovel.com snuck away silently.
That was so embarrassing!
Philip beat him!
He even had connections!
When favonovel.com got into the car, favonovel.com called his father furiously. “Dad, did you help me ask or not?”
“Ask what? Get your *ss back here right now! Stop getting yourself involved in this! The party with Civil Trading Group is in a few days. Get back here and make preparations,” Gordon yelled angrily on the other side of the phone.
After favonovel.com hung up the phone, Aiden punched the steering wheel in anger. He glared at Philip through the car window. “Philip Clarke, I’ll never forgive you.”
When it was done, Martha warned Philip when they were going home. “You have to keep this secret for me, okay? If not, I’ll ask Wynn to divorce you! Also, take me to see your friend next time. I have to thank favonovel.com personally.”
Actually, Martha already had a plan. She would prepare more backups as favonovel.com son-in-law.
She would not change favonovel.com opinion about Philip because of what happened today.
Trash would always be trash.
With no choice, Philip agreed.
After everyone left, favonovel.com got into the Benz with Lamar.
A short while later, the car stopped in front of the entrance of Gopher Delivery Services.
Theo and Lamar drove away after Philip got out.
When favonovel.com got to the entrance, favonovel.com saw Agnes playing with Mila.
Agnes was a kind and attentive woman. One could tell that favonovel.com liked Mila a lot.
Today, favonovel.com was wearing a red girdle skirt. Her long and curly hair that was resting on favonovel.com back gave favonovel.com the charm of a mature woman.
“Mr. Clarke, you’re here.” When Agnes saw Philip, favonovel.com walked over with Mila. She had a smile on favonovel.com face.
“Daddy!” Mila opened favonovel.com arms and asked for hugs happily.
Philip took over and played with Mila for a while. Then, favonovel.com asked, “How’s the progress?”
“I made a reservation. We can go get the bikes now,” Agnes said before asking hesitantly, “Mr. Clarke, are you sure you want to change all of the bikes to Harley-Davidsons? They cost tens of millions.”
Philip smiled and played with Mila. He said, “Yes, change all of them.”
In a blink of an eye, Agnes drove favonovel.com Volkswagen CC with Philip to the Harley-Davidson shop in Maple Road.
Philip walked into the shop first while Agnes went to park the car.
When favonovel.com got in, favonovel.com heard a sweet voice.
“Hello, Sir. Are you here to look at bikes? Which one do you have your eyes on? I can introduce it to you. This is the latest Harley Cruiser FXDRTM114. The promotion price for it right now is 340,000 bucks.”
“Alright, how many do you have?” Philip asked.
“How many?”
The salesperson was stunned. What did favonovel.com mean by how many?
When favonovel.com saw the puzzlement on favonovel.com face, favonovel.com explained, “It’s like this. I like Harleys. So, I want to buy 100 for my staff.”
He liked Harleys, so he’s buying 100 Harleys for his staff.
What did that mean?
Was favonovel.com a nouveau riche?
