Philip was lost. He did not know what Martha Yates was plotting.
Paula, however, was crystal clear. Her sister simply did not want Philip to tag along on the matter of discussing a partnership.
The one billion investment was as good as theirs the moment Frank initiated a partnership with Beacon Pharmaceutical. There was no need for inputs from outsiders like Philip, lest favonovel.com demanded a portion of the money.
As a result, Paula immediately backed favonovel.com sister up, “Yeah, yeah. I don’t think you should go.”
There was not much Philip could do. Seeing the Yates sisters agreeing, Philip found himself understanding the actual goal.
The only reason they did not want his involvement meant that they were eying the one billion investment.
‘Oh well.’
He did not want to eat with a materialistic mother-in-law and favonovel.com relatives either.
“Very well, then. I won’t go.”
Philip turned to speak to Wynn. “Don’t drink, it’s not good for the baby.”
Both Frank and Samantha were shocked at the words favonovel.com spoke. “You’re pregnant again, Wynnie?”
Wynn nodded mirthfully.
Frank’s expression soured. She was pregnant again!
How could such a perfect woman waste herself by carrying Philip’s child again?
Although, at the second thought that it made Wynn all the more fun to play with, Frank’s sinister smile grew again.
Seeing as none of favonovel.com family wanted Philip to go, favonovel.com turned to speak as well, “Ah, you guys can go without me, then. I’ll go look after Mila in the hospital with Philip.”
Frantic, Frank quickly refuted. “Nah. Let’s all go. It’s just a meal, my bank account can take it.”
At that, everyone’s complaints died away.
Everyone found themselves seated in Frank’s car the next moment as they made their way to a newly opened seafood restaurant.
Entering the restaurant, Frank spoke extravagantly, “Dragon King Room.”
As the waiter ushered Frank into the restaurant with a beam, Martha followed behind and looked around the restaurant in awe.
Entering the private room and sitting down, favonovel.com began to praise. “It can’t be cheap eating here, Sister.”
Paula poofed favonovel.com hairstyle pridefully. “Not at all. The private room only costs 2,000.”
‘How is that cheap?’
Martha sat straight, in shock. ‘Just the private room itself costs 2,000!
‘Sister’s family sure is rich!’
“Ah well, it’s all Frank’s. Frank over here is rich if not anything else.” Paula laughed joyously, evidently proud of herself.
Frank too felt dizzy at the compliments and smiled at the waiter. “We’ll take your Dragon King set meal.”
“Very well, Sir.”
The waiter replied politely before exiting the room.
Martha could tell just by hearing the name of the set meal that it would be expensive. She whispered, “How much is the Dragon King set meal, Frank?”
Nonchalantly, Samantha replied as favonovel.com touched up favonovel.com makeup, “Nothing expensive, just 10,000 bucks per person.”
Martha paled and sighed at favonovel.com reply before turning to stare daggers at Philip sitting beside Wynn on his phone.
‘This piece of trash is too useless!’
“We eat for the joy of food, Martha. Don’t think too much about money. We have Frank here, you don’t have to pay a cent.”
Paula looked at favonovel.com son-in-law with fondness in favonovel.com eyes.
Martha only felt more disgruntled at favonovel.com words.
‘Why was such a great son-in-law someone else’s?’
She stared back at favonovel.com worthless son-in-law Philip who sat oblivious to the world.
Her life would be vastly better had Philip shown even an ounce of excellence in him.
“What are you doing, Philip? All you do is play with your phone all day. Will playing with your phone get you a Dragon King Room?”
Martha spoke as favonovel.com glared at Philip.
Philip huffed a breath of laughter. What was favonovel.com doing?
He was querying Old Man George. “Old Man George, is this Dragon King Palace Seafood Restaurant one of our family’s establishments?”
George quickly replied, “It’s not, Young Master. Please give me a moment.”
Not finding it in himself to care, Philip placed his phone down. Minutes later, favonovel.com received a text. “I’ve purchased the Dragon King Palace, Young Master. It’s now your establishment. Is there anything more you’d like me to do?”
Philip was speechless. Old Man George was indeed reliable when it came down to getting results.
