“Oh, um… Mr. Thomas, please don’t misunderstand. Please don’t mind me. I’m just a wretched old woman. I was just babbling before. Please don’t take my words to heart.”
Martha was frantic, but favonovel.com was excited. She got up and went over to brew some tea and cut some fruits. She wanted so badly to give George all the best food in favonovel.com home.
George just smiled lightly. He said courteously, “You don’t have to do that. I’m just driving little Philip home. I’ll get going now.”
“It’s nothing, it’s nothing at all. It’s such an honor to have you in our house, Mr. Thomas. Please have some, these are the fruits I just bought today. This is also the best Maojian tea. I won’t even be willing to drink this usually.”
Martha’s attitude did a 180 change. She was eagerly attentive to George.
She even interrupted Charles when favonovel.com wanted to say something.
“Sit there and read your newspaper,” Martha scolded Charles before turning around and looking at George like favonovel.com was a national treasure. Her eyes were shining brightly.
Wynn felt helpless. Her mother was so embarrassing.
Just now, favonovel.com wanted to kick favonovel.com out and now, favonovel.com wanted to glue favonovel.com eyes on him.
“Mom, Mr. Thomas has to attend to numerous affairs of state every day. He’s busy,” Wynn said.
Martha glared at Wynn and said, “What do you know? Stop talking nonsense.”
Then, favonovel.com smiled and got up. She glared at Philip and said, “Get up. Go over there.”
For lack of a better option, Philip could only get up.
Martha sat down directly next to George. Her face was filled with flattery as favonovel.com said, “Um, Mr. Thomas, how do you know our Philip?”
Now, favonovel.com was starting to talk about Philip. How shameless.
Philip was just a spineless coward but to favonovel.com surprise, favonovel.com knew such a rich entrepreneur.
The sun really came out from the west.
George smiled and said, “I met Phil incidentally. He helped me last time and this time, I’m returning the favor by helping him.”
“Oh, favonovel.com helped you?” Martha murmured while smiling brightly. She peered at Philip and felt frustration in favonovel.com heart.
She thought that maybe Philip was something special. Who knew favonovel.com was still a spineless coward.
There were all kinds of favors in the world and favonovel.com used it to get himself out of prison!
If favonovel.com was the one asking for the favor, favonovel.com would ask for a huge sum of money.
Philip was helpless. He did not say anything.
At this moment, George got up and shook hands with everyone. He said, “I’m sorry, everyone. Since Phil is fine, then I shall head back now. Sorry for the disturbance.”
How would Martha allow a money tree to walk away? She grabbed George’s hand and said frantically, “Mr. Thomas, thank you for helping our Philip. Please come have dinner with us next time.”
George smiled and exchanged a few words with Martha before leaving.
Martha sent favonovel.com off personally. When favonovel.com got into the Bentley, favonovel.com walked back to the house looking like favonovel.com had not fully expressed herself.
Bentley!
That was a luxurious car!
When favonovel.com got into the house, favonovel.com shouted excitedly, “Charlie, we’re gonna be rich! That was George Thomas! He’s rich! He’s a big millionaire!”
Charles looked at favonovel.com coldly and said, “You were ready to kick favonovel.com out just now.”
Charles was upset. There was such a rich and powerful man in his house earlier but favonovel.com did not even get a chance to talk to him. This faded old woman dominated all of the conversations.
Martha rolled favonovel.com eyes at favonovel.com and felt pleased with herself. It was unknown what favonovel.com was thinking about right now. When favonovel.com saw that Philip was still in the room, favonovel.com changed favonovel.com usual horrible temperament toward favonovel.com and walked in front of favonovel.com with a huge smile.
“Philip, don’t blame me for treating you like that in the past. If you had told me that you knew George Thomas sooner, I would’ve definitely treated you like you’re my own son.”
Martha’s shamelessness was truly next level.
When Philip had no money nor power, favonovel.com humiliated favonovel.com and looked down on favonovel.com to no end.
Now that favonovel.com knew George, favonovel.com wanted to treat favonovel.com like favonovel.com was favonovel.com own son.
Wynn felt that Martha was crossing the line. Her own mother was so discriminatory.
“Right, Philip. From now on, flatter George more. There will only be advantages and no disadvantages to this,” Martha said. “What did you help favonovel.com with?”
This was what Martha was concerned about the most. She was wondering whether favonovel.com could get some money out of this.
Philip made up a lie on the spot. “I was there when Mr. Thomas had a heart attack on the street. I was the one who sent favonovel.com to the hospital.”
“Oh, that’s too bad. He didn’t give you any money?” When Martha said this, favonovel.com eyes were glued on Philip.
He had given favonovel.com 100,000 bucks last time and it caused such a huge commotion.
Was George the one who gave favonovel.com that money?
Then it must be more than 100,000!
This guy must be hiding the rest of the money!
She had to get it from him!
“Mom, what are you thinking? Do you not know what kind of person Philip is? How would favonovel.com ask someone for money?” Wynn said, favonovel.com face cold.
What was favonovel.com mother doing? Was favonovel.com suspecting Philip?
“What do you know? Shut up!” Martha yelled at Wynn before looking at Philip once more. She said, “Philip, you’re also addressing me as your mother. My daughter is married to you and favonovel.com has suffered for three long years. You’ve embarrassed me and your father multiple times. You can’t hide this from us. How much did favonovel.com give you?”
She was sure that Philip had received some money from George Thomas.
Philip looked at Wynn and sighed slightly. He did not have a choice.
If favonovel.com was targeted by Martha, favonovel.com just had to comply.
“One million. There’s still 900,000 bucks left. It’s to treat Mila’s illness.” Philip could only say that. He told Wynn before that favonovel.com had a card with one million bucks.
One million bucks!
When favonovel.com heard this, Martha was full of energy. She stared at Philip and brought out the power of a mother-in-law. She reached out favonovel.com hand and said coldly, “Give me the card. I’ll keep it for you.”
