Chapter 162


    Philip knew they would not believe him, so he purposely said that.


    Sometimes, people would not want to believe the truth.


    Martha did not say anything. It was unclear what she was thinking about. Then, she said in a


    commanding tone, “You don’t need to go to Wynn’s grandfather’s birthday that’s happening in two


    days. Just stay home.”


    Martha’s father would be celebrating his 70th birthday the day after tomorrow. She did not want to bring


    this cowardly man over.


    If not, she would be shamed endlessly by her family members from her maternal home.


    Plus, the old master had always been unhappy about Wynn’s marriage. Would she be congratting


    her father or infuriating him by bringing Philip back?


    Philip expected this, so he did not say anything. He took out a box from his pocket and said, “Mom, this


    is the gift I prepared for the old master.”


    Martha looked at the embroidered box on the table and murmured, “What’s this? The box looks so bad.


    Are you giving him something that’s only worth a few dozen bucks?”


    Martha did not even want to open the box to take a look. She did not want to dirty her eyes.


    What good thing could Philip afford to give the old master?


    Would it not be a joke for her to bring this box to the old master?


    When Philip was about to say something, Charles mediated the dispute and said, “Martha, it’s


    something from Philip’s heart. Can you stop causing trouble now?”


    Martha scoffed and said coldly, “Alright. You should go now.”


    Before Philip could walk out of the door, Martha’s second sister, Pa, walked in while dressed


    stylishly. She was not courteous at all. She immediately sat down on the sofa and yelled, “Martha, get


    me a ss of water! It’s so hot and I’m parched.”


    Martha’s face fell, but she still fetched a ss of water for her second sister.


    Pa took a few sips before noticing Philip. She sneered with a surprised expression. “Oh, Philip is


    here too! That’s good. I’m here to talk to you about this. The old master’s birthday is in two days. You


    guys should go with our Samantha’s car.”


    Go there with their car?


    Martha was curious, so she asked, “Pa, will we fit in Sammy’s car?


    “Of course!” Pa was excited. She said with a grin, “Our Frankie just bought a new car for Sammy.


    It’s a Lincoln Navigator they said. It’s over a million bucks and it’s a seven-seater. So it’ll definitely fit all


    of you.”


    She was clearly showing off.


    This was why Pa was here.


    Martha’s face fell as she red at Philip furiously. She was calling him a good-for-nothing bum in her


    heart.


    Pa was ecstatic. She was indeed here to show off. Now that she saw their unwilling and helpless


    faces, she felt extremely pleased with herself.


    Pa felt resentful toward Philip for failing to meet expectations and said, “Martha, it’s alright. Just tell


    Philip to work harder. Perhaps he’ll be able to buy a good car in a few years. Right, Philip?”


    When Philip’s name was mentioned, he chuckled and said, “You’re being hrious, Aunt Pa. How


    can Ipete with Frank? He owns apany.”


    “Sigh, you can’t say that. Even though there’s a huge difference between you and Frankie, I know that


    you can endure a lot of hardship. Why don’t I ask Frankie to help keep a lookout on any vacancy that’s


    suitable for you in hispany? I’ll ask him to help out because after all, we’re family. We have to keep


    the goodies within the family. You’ll even throw a bone to your dog.” Pa chuckled. Her expression


    betrayed how she was feeling right now.

    Her words wereced with jeers and mockery.


    Of course her nephew-inw was nothingpared to her Frankie.


    She was just saying without meaning any of it. She wanted to flex her son-inw’s ability.


    Philip’s face fell. Did she just call him a dog?


    Hehe.


    “Thank you, Aunt Pa,” Philip took in a deep breath and said calmly.


    “Alright, I’ll be going now. I’ll ask Sammy to pick you up in two days.”


    Pa came quickly and left quickly once she was done showing off.


    After Pa left, Martha was livid. She smashed the cup and screamed at Philip angrily, “Who asked


    you to chime in? You worthless piece of trash! Look at your Aunt Pa’s son-inw and look at you!


    What has Frankie bought for his wife? An LV bag, gold nes, and gold rings. Now, he even bought


    a luxury car that’s worth over a million bucks! Before this, he even bought a three-story mansion that


    costs over ten million! What about you? What have you ever bought for us? How did I get such a


    spineless bum like you as my son-inw? I’m so mad! You’re not allowed toe to the birthday party,


    do you hear me?”


    Martha was so angry that her head was throbbing. She sat on the sofa while fuming. “Why are you still


    standing there? Get lost! I get a headache whenever I see you!”


    Philip was feeling helpless.


    He had bought a house too. It was at the other courtyard in Dragon City.


    It was the most expensive one. It was called First Pce and it was worth a billion bucks!


    Luxury car?


    He had all of the luxury cars in the world. His parking lot was built on a hill.


    “Mom, I bought a house not long ago too,” Philip looked at the angry Martha and said suddenly after


    pondering.
