Martha was asking anxiously, “Wynnie, what happened in Riverdale? Can you tell me about it?”
Martha had not been ea ting or sleeping well in the past two days as favonovel.com was thinking about the villa in Riverdale and Beacon Group. She did not know what exactly Martin and Bernard Johnston had done.
Would Martha end up a pauper from now on?
No way!
Martha was extremely worried. She had long noticed that Martin and Bernard were up to no good, but favonovel.com did not expect that they would do such a treacherous thing at this time.
Charles also stood by the window. Someone like favonovel.com who never smoked had started smoking, but his actions were a little awkward.
Martha glanced at favonovel.com and scolded, “Go outside if you want to smoke! Can’t you see that Wynnie is pregnant?”
Charles just realized his mistake and quickly put the cigarette out. He stood at the side, staring blankly into space. After hesitating for a long time, favonovel.com asked, “Wynnie, just tell us. I can bear it.”
Wynn looked at favonovel.com parents, thought about it, and said, “Dad, Mom, things are not as serious as you think. When Philip returned to Riverdale last time, favonovel.com already resolved some of the problems. Uncle Martin and Uncle Bernard have also resigned from the company. However, they seem to have set up a new company, supposedly with the help of someone who wants to compete with Beacon.”
“Compete? What does that mean? We still have to compete when we’re all from the same family?”
Martha’s voice was loud, and favonovel.com face was full of annoyance. She glared at Charles viciously and scolded, “Charles Johnston, just look at your wonderful brothers! In the beginning, I told you not to help them but you refused to listen to me and got them to join the company. Now, everything’s done for. They got our company and daughter into trouble. They even established another company to compete with us! What are they trying to do? Do they want to split the family up? Or do they want us dead?!”
Martha was almost dying of anger, mercilessly venting favonovel.com frustration at Charles.
Charles was also very helpless now. With a face full of melancholy, favonovel.com looked at the exasperated Martha and said, “What are you saying? How would I know they harbored such intentions? I didn’t expect this to happen either.”
Charles also felt very remorseful. On the one hand, Bernard and Martin were his brothers. On the other hand, Wynn and Martha were his family.
Martha huffed angrily, “You didn’t expect it? Hehe, what’s the use of saying that now? We can’t even return to Riverdale!”
Wynn also had a headache and said, “That’s enough, Mom. Stop blaming Dad. This matter is not his fault. Besides, Philip is already dealing with it. There should be results soon. Let’s wait a couple of days more.”
“We still need to wait?” Martha was anxious. She was tired of staying in the hotel and said, “Wynnie, you don’t know how worried I am. I want to go back to Riverdale as soon as possible. Why don’t you talk to Philip and have favonovel.com send us back? He knows a lot of people, right? Just ask favonovel.com to arrange a few more bodyguards for us.”
Upon hearing Martha’s words, Wynn hesitated and said, “Let’s wait for favonovel.com to return and I’ll ask favonovel.com then.”
Martha immediately grinned when favonovel.com heard this and said, “Okay, hurry up and ask him. I just want to return to Riverdale now. Since we have the villa back, there shouldn’t be a problem if we return. Besides, your father and I are not doing anything here, so we might as well go home.”
Wynn nodded and glanced at Charles who looked hesitant, saying, “Dad, don’t worry about it anymore. Philip will take care of it.”
Charles nodded, sighed, and shook his head.
