Philip turned around and saw his mother-in-law approaching favonovel.com with a confused expression on favonovel.com face. Her eyebrows were twisted into a deep frown, and favonovel.com looked extremely unhappy.
At this moment, Martha simply could not hide favonovel.com contempt for Philip.
The two ladies next to favonovel.com were elegantly and luxuriously dressed. One of them was Martha’s sister, Paula. Philip did not recognize the other person as it was the first time favonovel.com met her, but from favonovel.com looks and appearance, favonovel.com was from no ordinary family.
Since both Martha and Paula were trying their best to please the other party, it was conceivable that favonovel.com identity was quite special.
“What are you doing here?”
Martha was quite surprised to run into Philip here, but favonovel.com was even more upset to see him.
She had finally begged Paula to introduce favonovel.com to a distant branch relative of the Longford family to bring them for a look at the villas in Longford Park.
However, they ran into this useless son-in-law of hers. If the other party found out about it, would that not be embarrassing?
“I…”
Philip initially wanted to say that favonovel.com was about to head to the hospital. He was also carrying food in his hands.
Paula beat favonovel.com to it and said instead, “Martha, can’t you see? He’s doing a delivery. Look at what he’s carrying in his hands.”
Paula ridiculed Philip whenever favonovel.com had the chance. This way, Martha would be embarrassed too.
Martha took a second look when favonovel.com heard that, and sudden anger welled up in her. This useless son-in-law of hers was really good at putting favonovel.com in a tight spot.
Why did favonovel.com choose to make a delivery in front of her?
On top of that, it was in front of Madam Sears too. Where was favonovel.com going to put favonovel.com dignity?
Sure enough, the graceful and luxuriously-dressed woman with a shawl over favonovel.com shoulders raised favonovel.com hand and placed it under favonovel.com nose. She frowned and pretended to cough a few times before saying, “What is that smell? It stinks. Martha, is this poor fellow your useless son-in-law?”
This woman was Barb Sears, the younger sister of Nancy Sears who was wife to Stephan Longfor, son of the sixth wife. Stephan was a member of the third generation of the Longford family.
Relying on the power of the Longford family, Barb had been acting all high and mighty all these years and even managed to marry into a well to do family.
Looking at Martha’s son-in-law now, his clothes were clean but ordinary.
It turned out that favonovel.com was nothing but a poor delivery boy. No wonder Paula mentioned before they came over that Martha had a useless son-in-law. If a man like this was seen with a food delivery package in his hands, what else could it be? Of course, favonovel.com was here to deliver food. He obviously would not be living here!
This villa area was built by favonovel.com sister’s husband and was a property of the Longford family.
Barb frowned as favonovel.com scrutinized Philip. As expected, favonovel.com was a low-class member of society and looked the part too. No wonder favonovel.com could only deliver food.
Poor boy.
Martha was furious now. She stared at Philip and kept winking favonovel.com eyes, signaling for favonovel.com to get lost.
Why did this wimp not possess any foresight? Did favonovel.com not notice the contempt in their eyes?
Why did such a good daughter of hers marry such a worthless wretch?
The three middle-aged women did not say anything but simply stood there with Philip.
Philip wanted to leave too, especially since Theo’s Maybach was parked at the side and Tiger was waiting for favonovel.com by the car.
If not for Philip’s signal, Tiger would have approached them already.
“Okay, hurry up with your delivery, then.” Martha could not stand it any longer and motioned for Philip to get lost.
To be honest, if not for Barb’s presence, Martha would have slapped Philip on the face already.
When favonovel.com recalled the last time at home when Philip had bragged to Paula about buying a house, favonovel.com headache returned.
If not for that matter, favonovel.com would never have begged for Paula’s help to contact some people for some discounts on a villa purchase.
Philip was also vexed and suddenly said, “Mom, about the villa, I’ve really bought it. Look, this is…”
When Martha heard Philip addressing favonovel.com as his mother, favonovel.com felt uncomfortable all over and said coldly, “That’s enough already! Stop talking. When are you going to stop bragging? Do you want to say that you bought a villa in Longford Park? Do you know how expensive the villas here are?”
This Philip was really too dense. Why did favonovel.com mention this matter now? It was so embarrassing.
Barb was puzzled when favonovel.com heard this. She turned to Martha and sneered. “What’s going on here?”
Martha was just an ordinary woman, but favonovel.com had a vicious mouth. She was a little mean and money-minded, yet cowardly too.
When favonovel.com heard the change in Barb’s tone, favonovel.com immediately explained in a humble manner, “Madam Sears, don’t listen to him. He’s not right in the head.”
However, Paula taunted. “Martha, this is your fault. When I was at your house last time, Philip did mention that favonovel.com had bought a villa. Listening to favonovel.com now, did favonovel.com buy one at Longford Park?”
Mockery and sarcasm.
It was too obvious.
