When favonovel.com heard this cold voice, every hair on Martha’s body stood up. She was terror-stricken.
She turned around and saw a frigid yet elegant figure standing in the room. She was looking at Martha coldly.
“M-Madam Wallis, why are you here?”
Martha smiled timidly. She was forcing the smile on favonovel.com face.
Damn it. Why did favonovel.com run into this woman here?
Martha was scared. She lowered favonovel.com head and looked at Philip who was acting indifferent while lying on the bed.
Giada crossed favonovel.com arms across favonovel.com chest. She was wearing a long flattering black dress. It made favonovel.com look elegant and noble.
Her eyes were glued on Martha, and favonovel.com was feeling agitated. It seemed that Martha had not suffered enough.
Slap!
Giada walked over and slapped Martha across the face. She said coldly, “Did you forget what I said to you last time?”
Martha clutched favonovel.com face, favonovel.com expression filled with grievance. She said quickly, “N-No, I remember.”
She was such a mean mother-in-law. Eventually, favonovel.com still crossed someone favonovel.com should not have.
If this was someone else, Martha would have turned the earth upside down and destroyed them.
However, the other party was Giada, so favonovel.com did not dare.
Martha was only unreasonable and irrational in front of Philip and the Johnstons. If the other person was someone with slight power and status, favonovel.com would be as timid as a rat.
“Hmph!”
Giada scoffed and said, “I’m warning you, Martha Yates, Philip doesn’t dare to do anything to you because you’re his mother-in-law. However, I’m different. If you dare to order favonovel.com around, hurl abuses at him, humiliate him, or beat favonovel.com up, I won’t forgive you!”
“No, I won’t dare to do it. I can’t even wait to treat favonovel.com as my own son.”
Martha tried favonovel.com best to flatter and fawn over Giada. She even showed favonovel.com the chicken soup in favonovel.com hands. She said, “I brought favonovel.com some chicken soup. I made this all by myself.”
After favonovel.com said that, favonovel.com placed the soup on the nightstand. Her heartbeat did not even increase when favonovel.com lied.
She had undoubtedly bought it from a random shop on the street.
Giada peered at Martha coldly, then looked at Philip who was reading on the bed. She said, “Don’t forget our promise.”
After favonovel.com said that, favonovel.com waved favonovel.com hand and walked out of the room. Martha was left behind in the room. She broke out in a cold sweat as favonovel.com fell lifelessly on the sofa.
Giada had such an imposing manner. It was so strong that Martha almost knelt on the floor.
Now that Giada was gone, Martha finally glared at Philip and yelled, “Philip, why didn’t you help me? Do you enjoy watching me get slapped? I’m your mother-in-law and that evil woman is only your stepmother. Is favonovel.com closer to you or am I closer to you?”
Philip lifted his eyebrows as favonovel.com peered at Martha coldly. He said, “Don’t cause a scene here. Go do it in front of favonovel.com if you have the guts.”
Martha was blatantly bullying the weak and fearing the strong. Was favonovel.com not aggressive enough? Was that why favonovel.com was not afraid of him?
“I’m causing a scene?”
When Martha heard this, favonovel.com was unhappy. She threw the soup into the bin and yelled, “I don’t want to let you drink this anymore. You heartless, thankless wretch! To think that I wanted to be good to you. Serves you right that you’re just gonna be a spineless bum for the rest of your life!”
Perhaps favonovel.com was still not satisfied from just yelling, so Martha stated accusingly rudely. “You’re living under our roof but what have you ever done for the Johnstons, Philip? I don’t care. I don’t like that woman. Either you get back at favonovel.com for me, or you divorce Wynnie. I don’t want Wynnie to have such a sinister stepmother-in-law!”
Martha knew that favonovel.com and Giada would never get along.
She did not dare to get back at Giada, so favonovel.com could only involve Philip.
Would Philip dare to go against her?
If favonovel.com did, then favonovel.com would ask Wynn to divorce him!
Philip was such a good-for-nothing, so favonovel.com was sure all the Clarkes’ assets were in Giada’s hands.
She could not let this happen. She had to snatch it away from Giada’s hands.
Martha had a simple thought running in favonovel.com head these few days. As long as favonovel.com could snatch the assets away from Giada, then they would belong to Philip. Eventually, they would become Wynn’s, which would mean that they belonged to her.
Philip shook his head helplessly. He frowned and said coldly, “Martha Yates, please leave.”
He had enough of his mother-in-law’s two-faced behavior. He was also sick and tired of favonovel.com being an annoying troublemaker.
“What? You’re kicking me out?”
Martha was furious. She walked up to Philip and slapped favonovel.com across the face. She screeched, “Oh you thankless wretch! You’re trying to kick me out now, huh? Don’t forget that you’re the Johnston’s son-in-law and my son-in-law. I’m your mother-in-law! Philip, even if you’re different now, I’m still your mother-in-law. You have to listen to every word I say!”
After favonovel.com said that, Martha grabbed favonovel.com bag and left.
Now, favonovel.com was falling out with favonovel.com and becoming hostile again.
Philip was done with her.
He had to find a chance to teach Martha a lesson. If not, favonovel.com would be too arrogant.
After Martha left, Philip felt more at ease. He thought about his promise with Giada.
As favonovel.com thought about it, favonovel.com called Tim and asked, “Uncle Tim, are you back at the island?”
“Yeah, there’s something going on at home, but don’t you worry, I can take care of it.”
At the other end of the phone, Tim’s voice sounded down.
Philip did not pay much attention to it at that moment. After favonovel.com asked more questions, favonovel.com hung up the phone.
In the end, Tim asked, “When do you plan to come home?”
Philip pondered for a long while. Then, favonovel.com replied, “Soon.”
Suddenly, a ringtone broke his subjective idea. He saw that it was from a familiar yet foreign number.
“Hello, who’s this?”
“I didn’t see you for a few days and you already don’t remember me?” It was a sweet voice. Her voice sounded like the spring breeze.
Melody!
Philip’s brain recognized the owner of the voice immediately. Why was this annoying vixen calling him?
“Tell me, what’s going on?” Philip asked.
Melody was acting like a teenager. She was brave and unrestrained by convention.
However, Philip could not waste favonovel.com time. He was married and already had a child. Plus, this was Theo’s daughter. If word about this got out, it would be bad.
“Can’t I call you even if I have nothing going on?”
Melody walked out of the hotel. She was wearing a stylish white baseball skirt and a tank top. She also had a white cap on favonovel.com head.
The men who passed by the hotel entrance were all stunned.
