Paula’s tone was laced heavily with the intent to make fun.
It was one that caused Martha to flush in anxiety as the words cut like knives.
Wynn could tell as well that favonovel.com Aunt Paula was making things difficult for Philip. However, favonovel.com was in no position to say anything as Aunt Paula was favonovel.com elder.
“Oh? So this is Wynn’s husband. He looks fine to me, though. Yup, all limbs intact.”
Frank had not made any motion to stand at all. Instead, favonovel.com sat on the sofa and sipped peacefully on his tea as favonovel.com crudely commented.
“Haha. Honey, you’re so funny. Didn’t you say he’s a simplistic man?”
Comprehending the implications of his words, Samantha hid a smile behind favonovel.com hand.
Philip was confused. ‘What the heck?’ All favonovel.com did was go out for a smoke, how did favonovel.com end up being the center of everyone’s jokes when favonovel.com returned?
‘Frank McDonald and Samantha Benson?
‘You are nothing to me!’
Philip’s expression darkened.
“What are you doing just standing there? Come say hello. Meet Samantha’s husband, Frank McDonald.”
Martha barked out.
There was not much Philip could do but walk. Smiling, favonovel.com reached out his hand and said, “Oh, my brother-in-law! Hello, I’m Philip Clarke.”
Frank gazed at Philip’s hand aloofly before frowning and speaking in a cold tone, “My pleasure.”
His tone was diffident and extremely belittling, considering favonovel.com did not shake Philip’s outstretched hand.
It was an act of condescendence right in Philip’s face. Frank was completely looking down on Philip by ignoring his presence.
Embarrassing, a disgrace.
Philip stared blankly before smiling politely anyway and retrieving his hand. Inconspicuously, favonovel.com gave the man standing in front of favonovel.com a once-over. While favonovel.com found the man looking the part, favonovel.com had dark eyebags that were most probably due to overworking and stress. He also had a pair of frivolous eyes that glanced indecently at Wynn who sat adjacently.
‘Haha.
‘Nothing too good, after all.’
Philip was pissed. Who was Frank McDonald to eye his wife like that?
He walked over and sat beside Wynn, covering favonovel.com smooth and slim thighs with a blanket. He spoke in a gentle voice, “Keep warm, it’s getting cold.”
Frank chuckled but did not comment on anything.
Martha, on the other hand, was irked. Frank’s condescending behavior must have been taught by Paula that b*tch.
Glaring intensely at Philip, irritation spiked in Martha. Trash would always be trash, never to be respected by anybody!
Feeling the need to fill in the awkward silence, Martha asked out of the blue, “Sister, I thought Frank was working in real estate along with your husband? Why did favonovel.com suddenly switch jobs to work at Rocket Pharmaceutical? What enterprise is this? Is the pay high?”
“Haha, Martha, I suppose this is where I fill you in. Frank, unlike Philip, is aiming for all-round development, after all. He is more outstanding than a delivery boy. He had only started a few months ago, and as for his salary, favonovel.com earns around 400,000 yuan a year. Though it may not be as much as favonovel.com used to earn, this new job allows much room for further development.”
Paula’s expression shone with one of pride and arrogance, fully showcasing favonovel.com admiration of Frank.
Admiration of which, hinted at a different kind of love.
One that Philip caught on with one look.
Sparks seemed to fly the moment Paula and Frank locked gazes.
‘What the f*ck?
‘These two…
‘Does Samantha know?’
“Wow! Your husband sure is talented! What a promising fellow, such high pay favonovel.com has!” Martha was envious.
That piece of trash named Philip Clarke could only count monthly salaries.
“By the way, what kind of company is Rocker Pharmaceutical?” Martha asked.
“It’s a public listed company from Capital City. It’s on the Fortune Global 500, owned by a subsidiary company under Capital City’s Clarke Group.”
Samantha added pridefully, “You’ve heard of Capital City’s Clarke Group these few days, right? They have more than hundreds of billions worth of assets within the country itself! My husband over here has gotten into Rocket Pharmaceutical with his own skills. I’m sure he’ll have a bright future in front of him.”
Samantha made sure to glance at Wynn as favonovel.com showed favonovel.com husband off.
Naturally, Samantha’s prideful gaze did not go unnoticed by Wynn. Not that Wynn Johnston found it in favonovel.com to care, though.
Philip was the best in favonovel.com eyes, even if everyone in the world was better than him.
So what if favonovel.com was a piece of trash?
He was still the Philip Clarke favonovel.com had grown to love.
